[FM24.3] Worldwide Champions League
phantom1998 replied to Dallan's topic in Editors Hideaway Download Forum FM24
@dalian Can I make a suggestion for future versions of this mod? So I've been playing for awhile now and I recently started playing in the MLS as Toronto FC. So when it comes to FIFA CL registration time I realized that in MLS (and also in the Canadian Premier League), there is no such thing as Trained in Nation status or Trained at Club status. So I'm stuck with only able to register 17 players (as everyone is considered non-homegrown) and the rest I have to field under 21 players. So maybe in the future just allow registration of 25 players with no rules? Another possibility is to use the foregin/non-foreign status rather than trained in Club/Nation status. Just a suggestion. Just to add, while I can temporarily workaround by signing lots of under 21 players, it seriously hampered the quality of my squad as I'm not able to field 8 of my senior players. Also I doubt the AI is smart enough to get around this. -
Oh I love your idea. And yes there can be 2 splits. I actually started off this database with a 10 team SPL playing each other 4 times with no split. But for some reason the relegation playoff kept crashing so I gave up on that idea. Maybe I'll have another go at this with your idea over the weekend.

Testing out with the Champions group idea and what it does to fixture congestion. This is what Ranger's schedule look like. I don't know what this would look like if they go on a deep UCL run. But let me sim it some more and see if that actually happens. Also can you imagine if a team is in a relegation dog fight and going thru the Scottish title run at the same time? LOL

Updated. Old firms are now excluded from Scottish League cup, also remove the top 3 qualification spots in SPL so that teams don't get marked as qualified when they actually haven't. I'm going to play around with adding the old firm into the Champions Group rather than having a new stage added. Will see how that works out.

Yes the U21s and U18s are picked up by England. I'll add the ignore statement for Viaplay cup in the next version. For the qualified teams, I guess I can removed the top playoff qualification rule so that this doesn't happen, and then have the champions playoff select the teams by league position instead. This is how it was done in rusty's Wales file. But yeah I had a similar thought to you about the champions group, but the fixture congestion for old firm would be too much. Unless maybe you manage the split to be 3 for the champions group and 9 for the relegation group or something like that.

This is work inspired and based off of what rusty217 did with his Welsh EPL teams in Europe/Cymru Premier Championship playoff database. The old firm teams are put into the Premier League and have them qualify for Europe via a playoff with the winner of the Scottish Premier League. Additional English teams are relegated to make room for the old firm teams based on their respective standings in the 2022/23 season. Similarly additional teams from the Scottish League system are promoted to fill in the 2 missing spots left by the old firm. Scottish Champions Playoff At the end of the SPL season the first place team enters into a playoff with the Scottish clubs in the Premier League to contest the SPL Trophy and also European spots. If the old firm teams are relegated from the Premier League than they do not participate in the Champions Playoff. So if both Rangers and Celtic are relegated to the Championship, then the winner of the SPL league is crowned the champion. The teams play 1 round of games in a group of 2/3 at Netural venues. (Although I haven't figured out how to actually mark them as Neutral) The European spots are given based on the Champions Playoff positions and then the SPL positions. In this instance the UCL info marker will display in the English Premier League table: Feel free to try it out and let me know if you encounter any bugs. For future plans I am thinking about expanding the Champions Playoff to atleast 4 teams and if none of the old firm are in it, then it will just be 4 SPL clubs. I also haven't figured out how to make the Champion Playoff games to be marked as Neutral so if anyone knows please let me know. Alternative Version This is an alternative version of the file, basically the SPL is now 10 teams instead of 12 teams. The split happens after 36 games have been played and there are 3 splits. Bottom 4 teams split into the Relegation group, mid table 4 splits into the Classification Group, and the top 2 splits into the Championship Group along with Celtic and Rangers, all Championship group games are played at neutral venues. All teams will end of playing 39 games in the season. (Except for Championship Group depending on if the old firm have been relegated or not they could end up playing 37 or 38 games) I personally prefer this file over the other one as the amount of games played by all teams are more balanced. Versions Alt Version 1.01 - Fixed bug with not winning the SPL by not copying the records from the championship group back to the league Alternative Version - Alt version released where the old firms enter the split champions group. 1.02 - Old firms are now excluded from Scottish League cup, also remove the top 3 qualification spots in SPL so that teams don't get marked as qualified when they actually haven't 1.01 - Updated file so the Champions Playoff will always have 3 teams, regardless of whether or not any one of the old firm clubs are relegated. The venues are now marked as Neutral. 1.0 - Released Old firm in premier league 1.02.fmf Old firm in premier league (Alt Ver) 1.01.fmf
