LeoFM Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Just ran a test simulation with all the files from this megapack and noticed that the leagues in North America never change in reputation like the ones in Europe. I presume this is because of the Concacaf Continental Club Cups file. But doesn't this mean it's impossible to have a "building a nation" save in North America (for example making the Cuban league the best in the continent), since the qualification places to the Concacaf Champions League will remain static throughout the save? Or is this an attempt at reflecting real life (is the qualification places to the Champions League really static or do they change like in Europe?) Edit: The same thing seems to happen in Oceania I appreciate the good work, this database genuinely looks incredible!

Koetzer Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) Unfortunately OFC Champions League still has wrong teams qualifying from some leagues, including New Zealand. For example this is the list of teams in 2022/23 season in my save, but obviously other teams should qualify: Spoiler NZ: PNG: Vanuatu (Fenua TP is a strange team, not playing in any domestic division but appearing in every CL season) Samoa: I also noticed that all leagues with these qualifying issues have championship playoffs, probably this could be the reason (though the continental places not always go to regular season winners as well). All regular leagues without playoffs (Fiji, Solomon Islands etc.) don't have this issue. Edited July 21, 2021 by Koetzer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodis Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Has there been any thought to incorporating USL in the United States?

Okay, actually I managed to fix it for myself using the default OFC rules (without Kiribati and Tuvalu), but had to move all leagues' schedules so they all are held within one calendar year. Then winners and runners-up qualify to CL in January, as it should be. And using the default rules enabled dynamic league reputation as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of the leagues don't have a champion yet. There is nothing you can do. I have dated the start date so far back that, for example, Kiribati already has a champion. In Oceania it is not always so. There, some of the champions of the preliminary round qualify for the CL and not those of the playoff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barleycorn Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi, reporting one bug with Presidents Cup in UAE. According to the rules, the Cup begins with a group stage where only the clubs of the first division are playing, two groups - like that. Two winners from the group stage then qualify to 1/8. Clubs from the highest league are starting to play from this stage. So in 1/8 there is 2 clubs from the first division + all 14 clubs from the highest division. But in my save all 11 clubs from the first division "qualified" to 1/8 for some reason and only 5 clubs from highest were playing in this stage. Here is the screenshot.

Falso 9 FM Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi guys! I really like the idea behind these league file compilation. However, I can't load all leagues otherwise the game doesn't start. I tried to remove all the other editor data files I installed but the issue persists with all files put into editor data folder. Does the editor data folder have a limit for loaded files? If it may help, I'm running FM21 on Mac via Steam. I don't think it's a CPU problem because I use to load all leagues and play without any problem. Let me know if someone else had this issue and how to solve it. Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guam are eligible to submit two teams to the competition but only chose to submit one. That club, Rovers FC, withdrew alongside their opponents in the qualifiers. In recent years the FA has not submitted teams to the AFC despite being eligible. Other nations in the database have done similar including Afghanistan, Pakistan, DRK, Myanmar, Oman and the Philippines. To reflect realism, I would argue that teams from Guam should have the ability to enter the qualification stage as they did in 2017. I think it would make a great save lol.

dbrown6 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Just wanted to say, I am loving this pack and using it at the moment. However, i would like to point out that NZ is wrong, due to the re-shake of NZ football the whole football system has changed completely. With some old teams folding, others combing to make new ones etc. I have attached a file explaining this. Just thought i would give you the heads up about it. You can also look at https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/COMPETITIONS/Football/National-League and the federations pages for all the leagues and cups https://www.nzfootball.co.nz/ABOUT-US/Who-we-are/Our-Federations NZ Football Pymarid.xlsx NZL leagues data.xlsx Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh, I can answer this: I've been playing a created wonderkids save in Reunion, and I did qualify them for the Coupe de France. Actually played a Tahitian team in the first round (even though I didn't have Tahiti loaded). I do recommend you also load in an expanded French database, just so you get those first couple rounds with "real" players. I had also loaded the databases for Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana (because some of the created players were from those territories.) ONLY real problem (which SI chose not to address after I brought up the bug): teams in the overseas territories are held to the Coupe de France restrictions requiring 8 French players in your Cup squad (even in those territories where no self-respecting French player will come and play, and players from these French territories are considered "Non-EU/foreign") So it's a real game-breaker, you have to set a game-day squad and holiday a day.

Wolf_pd Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Looking at the rules, there is a regulation that says only 4 non-EU players allowed, which Tahiti, etc are not. So instead of non-foreign, the change could be made at Nations treated as EU. Because then it should handle the EU check properly. Hope this helps. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
