Started this challenge this week and decided on Mendiola. No real reason, mostly just due the board not having huge expectations in the first year. I was planning on doing a youth only challenge, but the facilities are so poor, that I might do 5 seasons signing anyone I want and then immediately cut off all transfers and only use the youth intake.

No this for VINC21's Kit pack, his first link.

These are really cool and I will definitely use them. I did have to tweak the config to make them work with the teams I created (I used different unused teams in the Philippines). config.xml

So I finally finished a better version the Philippines Football League. You can find it on my post here -

I have spent some time trying to recreate the Philippine Football League as accurately as possible (with a slight caveat, in bold below). I have been planning a build a nation with the Philippines, but the handful of databases out there are quite poorly done. Most don't even have enough teams. So I spent a couple of days re-creating this league as close as possible. I have added the teams to the league that were in the database, and created the few teams that weren't. I added or created the real-life squads (thank you Transfermarkt). I have also made sure the teams all have their correct managers and I added the foreigner match squad limits. I have tweaked the Copa Paulino Alcantara too to make sure it pulls the correct teams. A small note. IRL, the teams only play each other once, 14 games in a season. I have edited that slightly so each time plays twice and the Copa Paulino Alcantara plays throughout the season. This isn't 100% accurate to real life, but a 14 game season seems way too short. I have also modified an existing badge pack and added all 15 team's badges. If you have any issues, or really want a version where there are only 14 games in a season, then let me know.

I need a final big challenge to end FM24 and I think this might be it. The only issue is that the Filipino teams haven't been updated in ages and a few are missing entirely. Every downloadable database also only has 10 teams, so I will fix it on Wednesday and upload it here. I will make sure that there are 15 teams and fix the squads as much as I can too. Then I can start the challenge on the weekend. Also just realised that they only play each other once IRL, in between April and July. I may modify that slightly and play every team twice and play the league between March and October.

Yeah, as far I am aware. I use about 200 custom nation leagues and it works fine. The IDs might not match up for the badges, but not much I can do about that to be honest.

Wasn't entirely a priority, every update breaks them. But I will work on it for the next update

I plan on adding those in the next update

Yeah I didn't fix it before I updated. I will see what I can do tomorrow and post a new badge file here

Updated for 24.3.

Of course SI would release an update as soon as I finish the file... I will work on it this weekend.

Promotion from K3 will activate in the 2025 season. Promotion from the K5 will activate in 2025 season

Here is the 1st version of my Korean 2024 database. This includes the top 2 tiers that are playable already, with the addition of the K3 and K4, the 3rd and 4th tier. I have also added the 3 amateur tiers of the K5, K6 and the K7. The top 4 tiers are accurate as of today. The K5, K6 and K7 information tends to be harder to find until the summer, so this is the 2023 structure. The K3 and K4 were created in 2020 after combining the old 3rd tier Korean National League, the 4th tier K3 Advanced and the 5th tier K3 Basic. In that time, these leagues are yet to fully settle, with handfuls of new teams joining and some dissolving entirely. The K4 also includes 3 K League B teams. I have also created badges, but they are too large of a file to upload here so they are downloadable from my Drive - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lV8Vtf6c4TcttrhUKWSdHXq7diIaHUl9/view?usp=sharing All teams in the top 4 divisions updated for 2024 season. K5, K6 and K7 are still set in the 2023 season (lack of data until later in the year) Season start date set to January 2024 K3 and K4 added with correct teams and promotion system between them Some stadium names tweaked, a few added, stadium seat colours changed for a handful of places Created 500+ players to fill the K3 and K4 squads (Thanks to the data at Transfermarkt) Yangju removed from the K4 2024 season. They will reappear in the 2025 season Removed Gangwon B and Busan B from K4. They will play in the reserve leagues again Reserve Leagues Tweaked to stop Daejeon, Jeonbuk amd Daegu from entering another reserve team into the league (was a bug with B teams) Seoul E-Land set at Mokdong Stadium and will move back to their normal stadium in 2025 FA Cup has been fixed to make sure it takes the correct amount of teams from K4 and K5 FA Cup renamed to Korea Cup Added dozens of new cities and counties to add more accuracy to team and stadium locations Some team names in KL1 and KL2 were tweaked (Ulsan HD renamed) All badges in the logo pack are correct as of 24th February 2024. All logos from KL1 down to K4 are present. Some K5 teams have badges too. Many more tweaks and changes Transfers updated to 22nd February 2024 Added new U21 rules to the K3 and K4 leagues Added all 32 K6 leagues and all 190 K7 leagues, correct for the 2023 season and made them playable Promotion from K3 will activate in the 2025 season. Promotion from the K5 will activate in 2025 season Added full K3 and K4 history Added in historic league history to teams for the K3 and the old National League Fixed K3 and K4 kit colours Tweaked all attendances and season tickets to try and make them closer to real life Tweaked some stadiums and other little things Added more Korean media sources, including the entire writing team over at @KLeagueUnited __MediocreJake's Korea FM24 - KL1 To K7 - v1.1.fmf

File has been updated to fix an issue with Gimcheon being able to buy the players that they had on loan. This should be fixed now.

There is no longer a 'no fantasy' option. This is the only one. This is based on proposed changes in the future.

Finally got the summer update done. Took a while to get all the 2023 data for the K5, K6 and K7. Summer UPDATE: Tranfers Updated to 19/8/2023 K5, K6 and K7 leagues all updated to 2023 teams Removed Goyang Happiness from K4 (folder IRL) Managers in top 4 leagues updated

File has been updated with all transfers up to 25th March. Also eliminated the odd wage tab crash that kept happening. Lots of tweaks to squads in K3 and K4, with stadium tweaks too.

Just thought I would throw an update. After filing a bug, going through 2 weeks of nothing and then being pushed towards Sega support. They made me run the dxdiag twice, update my drivers and then do nothing apart from requesting my save eventually to be sent to the devs, which the bug reports initially was supposed to do. I have finally pinpointed the issue. And I found the fix accidentally whilst trying to fix a training bug. I had 2 season periods set in my nation rules. I don't know why this caused an issue after the update to FM23, but it seemed to. I have attached 2 images to show what was causing the issue, to what I changed it to to fix it. Before: After: It seemed that giving 'level 0' 2 season periods caused the issue. The finance bug has now disappeared.

I did as you asked and contacted support. After checking my dxdiag (twice), suggesting that I update my graphics drivers, ignoring the fact that this issue occurred after the January update and ignoring the fact that other users had the same issue, they suggested that I just don't use that file anymore. So as much as I understand your initial suggestion for this, it has been a waste of a week and support were entirely useless.

Fair enough. I just tested by making every Korean team the same in the finances tab, same balance, same season ticket holders, ticket prices etc. But still crashes. Odd bug, hopefully SI can fix it.

All my clubs have their ticket at £0. I did adjust season ticket numbers though, is this what it is caused by?

Did you ever find a workaround? I tried to check the crash dump and it mentioned an error to do with 'length22', which made me think it was a short name error with an added club/league etc. But I fixed the short names and it still crashed. The error might have had little to do with the error in the crash dump anyway. I have logged it as a bug, but I don't know if that will ever be resolved if it was present in FM22.

Yes, but I have removed it. Also removed all graphics from the graphics folder. Tested with a fresh FM23 folder too apart from my database file
