Jorgen Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Ouch! Losing your hard work, or not being able to use it, gives a big headache. Hope you'll find what's causing this and you'll overcome this problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted April 28 Author Share Posted April 28 I have used a workaround to set up II teams for competition to fill out the ranks. That means instead of 127 I only have to created 19. I have to take a good look at the level 5 rules for II teams though. I am going to set maximum for II teams, but they get higher the lower you go. So, time lost for now, but not as much (yet). I hope I can finish the data Monday or Tuesday, so I can recheck the competitions and see if I need to create more teams. I am not behind on my West Germany planning, but I don't have much room for error either. And the Soviet Union is looming. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted April 30 Author Share Posted April 30 Luckily some good news after Sunday's dissapointment. I worked on re-adding teams today. They were more than the 19 I had in mind, but less than the 126 I lost. Just 6-10 to go and I am done. It does help to be able to copy everything from FM22 Hopefully tomorrow I can start re-setting the competitions again. That will be some work with all the various cups, but could have been much much worse. Edit: Already have set the (basic) competitions, but might dive a little deeper into properly setting all promotion and relegation. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted May 1 Author Share Posted May 1 Next up: Cups. Only now realised that all Verbandspokale are already in the game. Which means I can clean up a bit on the part of created competitions. Added bonus, their history is in there as well, and that was what alerted me to check the competitions when I was setting up the DFB Pokal. Makes things soooooo much easier Swapping out competitions should be enough to get things to work for me which probably means Basic Rules are redone tonight. I will probably do some work on the Advanced Rules, but that's reserved for a later date. This week is just to have the basics for Advanced Rules ready and see that the file verifies properly (had some headaches with that afterall....).

Wolf_pd Posted May 1 Author Share Posted May 1 DFB Pokal is trying to annoy me when not accepting the various Verbandspokale in Basic Rules. I will leave it simple without the Verbandspokale now. That's easyily added in Advanced Rules. Time for two more cups and a quick check if I can set up promotion and relegation better in basic rules to save myself time in advanced rules. I have tomorrow and Friday to do the first things in Advanced Rules and finish up the biggest part of the setup in Advanced Rules this weekend. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verbandspokale is the lowest I will go to at the moment. Bezirkspokale would have needed at least an extra level on the pyramid as well and while for some areas it can be done, for other it would mean massive amounts of extra teams. As one nation project that would be doable, for this one not so much. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted May 2 Author Share Posted May 2 Advanced Rules verified on second attempt. First attempt was thwarted by an error because of registration rules. That's a bit of a problematic one popping up regularly. Hungary had the same issue in FM20 Iron Curtain. I removed the registration rule for Bundesliga for now as I need to check on the workaround, but I do know how to put it back in, so that's easy peasy. Next up some advanced rules work and when the basics have been done there i need to write down exactly which competition relegates to which one and which competition promotes to which one via regular competition and via playoffs. If you were ever looking for a difficult sudoku..... Here it is! Good preparation for the similar work in Yugoslavia and Soviet Union btw! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf_pd Posted June 1 Author Share Posted June 1 Data checks for Russia are complete. Next up some general checks and some Soviet Union checks. There are few big checks on the lists, but hope to get a lot done as next week is my last week before I have three weeks off work. Those three weeks will also mean I am less online (so behave yourself on the forum ) and editing speed will be lower. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted June 2 Author Share Posted June 2 So you might wonder, which Soviet teamname is most commong. Spartak, (C)SKA, Lokomotiv, Dynamo/Dinamo or something else. Turns out that the Soviets like their control and the Dynamo/Dinamo teamname is most common, but the second one was a bit of a surprise as it was Kolos.which usually only plays in rather rural areas. So that also explains why there is just one Kolos team of a decent level (reputation: 4750 and playing at second level), while there are more than enough Dinamo/Dynamo/Dünamo's in big cities. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmorgan78 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Sorry to ask, but you'd be a good person to get advice from, I want to start attempting to edit properly from FM25 and as would get new pc, would it benefit me getting pc with decent intel cpu or should i go down workstation route like threadripper etc. Have i7-13700k at present and takes ages even just saving changes sometimes!

If there's a thread I've missed on this I apologise. I am a software guy and not a hardware guy really. One advice from my side would be, don't set the specs based on the editor. I have about 15K in editor hours and even with my last rig the editor wasn't the deciding factor. It was a different game that made me pick my specs and the editor just profited. Apart from that, the link that \'Appy \'Ammer provded is the one to follow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmorgan78 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Thank you! That link confirms I don't need to go crazy spending money by the looks of it- was concerned as my previous pc seemed quicker but good to see it's not just me and the editor is just slower than previous versions. I'll have to get my head around the rules etc and it'll be hard to come near some of the work others have done, but looking forward to attempting to! Many thanks! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf_pd Posted June 30 Author Share Posted June 30 Last day of my holiday today and tomorrow it is back to the daily grind of work. Which also means I am going to back on the project on Tuesday First some last checks on the Soviet data and then it is competition edit time in Czechoslovakia or Poland. Poland needs some work on playoffs while Czechoslovakia does have quite straight promotion and relegation, so would only need finishing touches and testing. With regard to beta testing and when this project is finished, as I have gotten some questions on it, it all has taken way too long (4000+ hours in the editor now for the project) and that's partly because I am a perfectionist and partly because it is just too big. That also means I am not sure we are finished before FM25 comes out. As FM24 files can be loaded in FM25 (Miles Jacobson did not mention it wouldn't be possible, so that's enough confirmation for me), I want to finish this project, hopefully this year. After that it will be the Historical Divergence, but that's just as much storytelling as it is editing and it does not have much of a deadline. However, I might start approaching people to help me out with specific files. This is also my way to get you in the credits as a creator and make it a bit more of a community project. Call it a thank you for the fact you stuck around and all the interest in the project. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf_pd Posted September 5 Author Share Posted September 5 Loading up a FM24 savegame into FM25 is going to a bit more interesting after the news that international management will be locked away for FM25. That it returns in (a (probably expanded way) in FM26 is good new though. I do like to run internaitonal management saves and you might have noticed that the FM20 Iron Curtain release was more or less aimed at that part as well. At least I get some time to spend on FM24 instead of being distracted by a new editor 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf_pd Posted September 11 Author Share Posted September 11 Just 4 more teams for Kazakhstan to add, checking all teams for second teams to be added to the competition (where do you think those 4 Kazakh teams will come from ).

Wolf_pd Posted September 16 Author Share Posted September 16 The good news, I am working in Soviet advanced rules. The bad news...... And yes, there are absolutely teams there. Looks a lot like what happened to me in Czechoslovakia, so I am probably in need of some major competition creation rework (but this was calculated in, as I had some expectations). So next is data work for Yugoslavia while I turn back a few versions for USSR and then start reworking each competition and test every time when I have reworked a few. Best thing is I can use this screenshot 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
