Popular Post rusty217 Posted November 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) 23.4 version (Warning: May affect Icelandic competitions) x World Cup 40 teams.fmf Old versions Spoiler x World Cup 40 teams.fmf x World Cup 40 teams.fmf A 40 team World Cup with 8 groups of 5 from 2026 onwards, rather than the proposed 48 team World Cup. The host qualifies automatically (no co-hosting) Africa: 6 teams Americas (North/South combined qualifying): 8 teams Asia/Oceania (combined final stage qualifying): 6 teams Europe: 10 teams Playoff: 9 teams The playoff features 6 teams from Africa, 4 from the Americas, 6 from Asia/Oceania and 10 from Europe. With the 9 winners qualifying for the WC. Other changes: Host selection for the WC, Euros, AFCON, Asian Cup & OFC Cup is more diverse than before (especially the Asian Cup which by default seems to just switch between 5 different countries forever). The AFCON and Asian Cup alternate between winter/summer tournaments. Hot nations can still host the winter version and it's only ever 4 years (AFCON) and 8 years (Asian Cup) now so should disrupt seasons less. Australia are now able to host (and therefore participate in) the OFC Cup, although it is rare. The Euro/South American Super Cup can now be hosted by North American countries too. Additionally, all the WC qualifying tournaments, Asian Cup quals and Euro quals should automatically adjust for extra teams if you want to add new countries. There's a limit to how many extra they can manage, around 5 or 6 is the limit I believe. Known issues: Potentially Asian Cup/OFC Cup awards. The Asian Cup awards are given out if an Asian country is loaded (I assume a larger database size could also work) and I assume the OFC Cup is the same. They don't work if you only load 1 European, African or American league though. If you spot any other issues, please let me know. If you appreciate my work, feel free to support me.

IIRC the default rules override some of your host stuff if it's Flexible. Needs to be Fixed format to actually take your changes into account. I haven't tried joint hosts.

Yep, you can just change the host for those years, a pretty easy change. Although you'll also need to edit the American qualifying section. Due to the winter WC the qualifying starts before the WC fully updates and the US aren't recognised as the current hosts yet so I had to add an extra instruction to remove them from qualifying just for 2026 since they already qualify as host. So change the hosts and then remove the Ignore USA instruction for American 2026 qualifying. You might need to add an Ignore Sweden instruction to Europe for 2026 too. 2. Pretty much, yes. Especially now that all the teams are there already and it doesn't need to wait for qualifying to finish, just changing the fixture dates to June/July should work. 3. If you add a co-host you'll also need to edit qualifying just for that specific year so that 1 fewer team qualifies. Otherwise you'll have 1 team too many. You might also need to change the draw process for the group stage, I've got it set to assign the host seeding 0 and put them in Group A. It'd probably still work, but would put both hosts into Group A which I guess wouldn't be ideal. IIRC I used an invalid groups for seeding instruction so it should block them from groups 1 to 7, if you change that to 1 to 6 it should put the 1 host in Group A and 1 in Group H. 4. Yep, that hosting setup should work. You have to set possible hosts by individual country though, so it will be a bit of work to alter all of those. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should do that with Europe too, but for Sweden instead of course. For Europe it's under Qualified Teams rather than Team Pool. Put it at the top of the list there to ensure it works correctly. You won't need to do it for any of the others, it's just an issue with the timing of the 2022 WC. Summer WCs update in time for the new host to be correctly picked up and ignored by qualifying tournaments. Plus in Asia the host participates still, since Asian WC qualifying also acts as Asian Cup qualifying. 2022 or 2042 for NA hosts should both have the same effect, so either is fine. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of trial and error! But in short, competition setup and update dates were the issue. Sometimes they're needed to get a competition to run properly, eg. my WC Playoff won't work properly without the right setup date. But for the AFCON qualifiers setup/update dates just broke it. I'm not entirely sure why either, it seemed to work every 4 years so it wasn't 100% broken, it just wasn't working every 2 years like it was supposed to. With those dates removed it now seems to work though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then another action to qualify the 18 best 3rd/4th placed teams. Both times excluding the host and passing their qualification place to a different team instead. Have a look at the file to see it better, it's pretty complicated! I think it's mostly still intact from the original setup, I don't believe I changed much. I did use very similar instructions for my Copa America file to use the Nations League as a qualifier for that too.

J-Hood Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Hey Rusty, just wondered how easy or hard it would be to change the amount of teams that qualify from each continent or changing the amount of teams that qualify for the play offs from each continent so for example take away 4 playoff spots for europe and make it the 6 best 2nd places qualify for the playoffs and something like give CAF 2 extra playoff spots so still have 6 playoff qualifiers and then an extra 2 for the best 3rd qualifier and something similar for the other continents??

Depends, if you're familiar with using the advanced rules editor and keep track of what you're doing it would be pretty simple. If not, then it could be difficult. The main thing is just making sure any changes you want to make are reflected everywhere required, not just in one place. So for example, the playoffs are currently set for 26 teams. As long as it still has 26 teams it doesn't really matter where they come from. So if you remove 4 playoff spots for Europe and add 4 to Africa, that would work fine. If you just want to add/remove then as long as you adjust the number of teams required for the playoffs it would still work too. Making it say the top 6 2nd placed teams rather than all is a little complicated, but if you've done or seen it before elsewhere it should work in basically the same way, just using Extra Fate Places and setting the new fate as Top Playoff.

It's under the competitions rules for each qualifying competition. Here's the European one: Just above this it's got Number of Top Playoff Places set to 1, so it will assign the League Fate Top Playoff to 1 team in each group, this instruction then tells it to qualify any team with that fate for the WC Playoff. I think it works similarly in the others, I don't recall setting any up that qualify teams from a knockout at least so I think they all go straight from the group stage like this.

Getting teams to skip a round of a stage is pretty finicky. It's possible, but it's hard to make sure it's the teams you actually want to skip it. Hard to test in game too to see if they're actually following those instructions or if it's randomly drawn with any teams potentially skipping the first round. Increasing the number of teams in the playoff so that no teams are able to skip the first round would definitely work though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increasing the number of teams in the playoff so that no teams are able to skip the first round would definitely work though! unfortunately you are right, I've simulated 100 years and each time it ignores the instructions it just seems to randomly pick the teams that skip through to the final. i like your format i just think it lets to many European teams in, on average 5 extra European teams qualified through the playoffs out of the 9 spots Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurkaDurk69 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Sorry to bother you again, but I have a problem When simming up 2026, squads have 40 players when the WC is happening which is the same number as preliminary squads. I haven't touched the number or anything for the preliminary squads. I have however changed the amount of cash clubs get daily. I have checked my other rule editing files, none of them mentions preliminary squads I guess I should actually sim with your version with my files to see if the problem is me lol Edited December 16, 2022 by HurkaDurk69 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurkaDurk69 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Yep, the problem was my WC file and I don't know how it got broken Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
verazmuhammadmasri Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Sorry to bother you but for some fixtures in the euros, why do teams from the same group meet each other again in the round of 16 even though you put the flag for "Keep Same Teams From Previous Groups Apart" This never happened before in the editor from previous years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, sorry. I don't know whether it's an issue with that flag generally not working, or if it's caused by 3rd placed teams going through too. I wish I could make it a fixed draw like it is IRL, but with some 3rd placed teams it's just stupidly complicated, not even sure it'd be possible in the editor. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
verazmuhammadmasri Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 It's ok np but I feel like it appears that this flag doesn't work anymore cause the u20 world cup appeared to have the same issue.

\'Appy \'Ammer Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) I love the look of this. One question... Your download on this page starts with an x. I saw on another thread you posted a download with a z at the start. Is that a newer version? Edited February 6, 2023 by \'Appy \'Ammer typo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your download on this page starts with an x. I saw on another thread you posted a download with a z at the start. Is that a newer version? Basically an internal identifier so I know which version of the file it is. I often do it to influence file loading order too. Generally, no letter = not finished, v = database changes only, x = able to release publicly and z = final version for my game. Sometimes x and z will be the same, other times I change things just for me, eg. removing the managers at clubs I want to take over etc. Specifically for the WC file the z version just adds russia, Kazakhstan and Israel to Asia. A change I know some people may not want, especially the russia part, hence it's not included in the publicly released version. The removal of the 2022 WC was added to that version too, again because I wanted it in my save. Oh and IIRC I increased the number of qualifying places for Asia in my version, due to being biased. Edit: The z version in action on my current save with Israel (group 2), Kazakhstan (group 5) and russia (group 6): The 5th team in russia's group is Bangladesh, a fair bit easier than their usual European qualifying groups!
