All it does going below Level 10 is it adds 100's of more teams & Leagues which are not much difference in terms of quality and you can just steam roll through the levels. I also go into great detail with my database which would not only add many more hours of work it would not be of a quality i would be happy with. It also slows the game down considerably adding all the extra Leagues & Cups fair call mate. love your work on this. the game wouldnt be the same without guys like you doing this 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liffa Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) @Saradiamanta Thanks for spotting this. Here's a guide if anyone else wants to change it in the advanced editor. In the FM24 editor, load Messi's database. On the left side, go to England dropdown menu: England > Competitions > Add There you add FA Youth Cup and U21 Division 4 Cup to the already existing list. Then save, test all rules to re-verify, save again. Edited December 12, 2023 by Liffa 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don_Sham Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Thanks @lionel messi. Great work as always. Don't know if anyone else is seeing the same issue as me but when I start a new save with a Tier 9 team I am having issues with wages. If I start the game including players in the team then I am already over budget as the game fills out a full senior, U21 and U18 team. I have to release all the players but its still not enough. If I go without players then I get a wage budget of £10p/w and even though everyone is on appearance fees only, I am still unable to sign anyone because it breaks the club budget rules. Should these teams have an U21 and U18 squad at tier 9? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liffa Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 @Don_Sham That's a tricky issue... IRL teams down to tier 9 seem to have U18 squads since most of them take part in the FA Youth Cup. By the info I found 622 U18 teams took part last year. Probably more this year since the number has risen from ~400 in 2015/2016. Unfortunately the FM default database only includes U18 down to tier 6 in the FA Youth Cup. https://www.thefa.com/competitions/fa-youth-cup/results 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should these teams have an U21 and U18 squad at tier 9? Have you reduced your scouting budget? I think FM sets these at 20k by default. If you reduce that it will go into your Transfer budget. You can then reduce your transfer budget and it will assign that to your wage budget. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son plays for the League 9 team I am playing and they only have a U18 squad not an U21. When I do a Gillingham save, they only have a U18 in league 2 which I think is the common one. 2 hours ago, henderj said: Have you reduced your scouting budget?

I gave it a go, but it only lets you take your scouting budget down to $10k which still wasn't enough to get a wage bill. Think it has to be a combination of releasing all your U21s and U18s and reducing the scouting budget to get into a position to play the game properly.

If you duplicate an award, you have to actually make a change to the "short name" (can just change a letter, tab away, then click back in and change it back, you can see under "changes" that it will now register).

It should work, I've noticed it when cloning a team of the week/player of the week and only changing the long name. The short name change seems to fix it. As long as short name shows up as an editable field when you mass edit, you should be fine. You could probably do the change back as a mass edit too, if you did all the "team of the week"s together (same short name, which is the source of this issue), "player of the week" etc. The source is duplicating existing awards, you're like "oh I only need to change long name to Southern County Team of the Week because the short name already says Team of the Week."
