Jellico73 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 1 minute ago, Teep said: For unknown reasons, I moved some files out and of appdata and documents, and it's now working, without changing or deleting anything... hopefully it still works tomorrow I might be explaining it poorly, but here's what I do know. When you use a skin, there is a file created in the AppData/SI/cache folder called SKINNAME.skc, it contains the data from the skin generated by the xml's. When you clear the cache and relaod the skin, thats the file that's actually being deleted and rebuilt. My understanding is that process would look at just the skins folder and build the skc file off of that. Fo some reason, during this years beta, if you had more than one skin in the skins folder, it would build that xml file off all the skins. I found out because one of the errors it threw was a font error, and the font in question was only used in a skin I pulled from a Korean FM board, and I was no longer using it. But for some reason the cache process scanned it and used it to build the temp file, and then the game started throwing an error when it couldn't process the temp file properly. As an example, my skc file was about 200k, and when I took out all the skins I wasn't using, deleted everything and reran the game, my skc file went to 116K. I've had a lot fewer issues since the game went "live", but in my experience, any sort of XML error like that, kill the game process, delete cache and preferences from AppData/Loca/SI/FM23, restart and it runs fine. Until the next error. :-) Glad you got it working again, Jellico 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teep Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 @Jellico73well, i had already move out the skins folder before and it didnt solved it. had also tried the views folder, and the editor data one. i dont know why moving *everything* and putting it back worked. for now i hope it stays fine thanks for taking the time to answer and share some tips Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxeneize Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 6 games after the update and I am yet to see a forward stealing a ball or a defender making a mistake. I am playing in the Costarican league, so it's not due to having elite defenders. I guess they tweaked it too much, kinda reverting it to wha fm22 was. Also, it seems there are no more balls over the defense line. I know most people complained about it, but it was a great tool for my team with horrible passing attributes 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff EdL Posted December 1, 2022 SI Staff Share Posted December 1, 2022 So anyone with the slow startup / high GPU usage think I have figured out what causes it go wrong. It looks like an interaction between the new code and vsync set to fast mode in the nvidia control panel, I tried that locally and can repro the issue then if you set your vsync to application defined it should resolve it without the need for --disable_flip_discard and you should have better performance than before. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah okay, my G-Sync may have been a clue then as I have V-Sync set to On in NVIDIA Control Panel, which isn't quite Fast Mode. Set it to 'Use the 3D application setting' as per your suggestion and seems to have solved it. Your shortcut command also fixed the issue too, but removed that for now Edit: Although saying that, my GPU usage was fine, it was just a generally laggy UI that I was experiencing.

There are higher amount of passes because the game is more quicker. But. In every other aspect the ME is better! i am watching the game, and it's unwatchable. It's like watching FM22 all over again. Passing teams no longer misplace a pass, ping it around making 30-40 passes in a row in pretty much all game no matter what team it is. Every passing team plays like spain/barcelona, even teams with 4th tier level players. Why would i want to watch that? How is this realistic in any way? 13 hours ago, damjanovski said: Please stop just seeing the stats and watch the game. The ME is much improved with the latest patch.

Not one person moaned about that or raised it as a bug? Before the patch the match speed was perfect, that's why passing stats were normal.

One thing to note with the nvidia control panel you have to press apply before it takes effect (and don't have FM running when you make the change) Also do you have a g-sync monitor?

Nick_CB Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I have to agree that the amount of passes, especially in the defensive third, is exaggerated.

TheArsenal63 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Representation of defending is much much better, it feels and plays like every pass is contested with a player not too far from the ball, so there's almost always a challenger when it makes sense for there to be one near. The slight downside though is the dribbling and chaos , which was the great part of this ME has been toned down a bit too much in my opinion. If the beta was 100% chaos, this feels like 40%. It still is miles better than the beta and a much better ME than FM22. The attacking play is also a little bit static, I haven't had time to do all my tweaks but there definitely is a lot to learn here and figure out. It's possible that the way the tactics affect the ME has changed significantly enough that I can try and tweak the attacking phase to get the desired result. I will report back if I have success in creating a more free flowing tactic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
