Update: Got my rules to validate, had to not use overall squad rules. Really dumb, but it verified out now. Update 2: rules failed when I tried to validate all leagues.....any help would be appreciated lol

Hello fellow editors. In a bit of a bind, have a long-standing DB that I have been rolling over for a few editions. Imported my FM23 xml DB into FM24, and I keep getting a Europa League, no squad selected error. Tried a few things in my fixture rules (like unlinking some rules to leagues) but nothing has worked. The odd thing to me about this error is my DB is a custom nation, not a continental comp- so there are no direct fixture rules for Europa in the DB. Any help would be much appreciated, spent a fair bit of time browsing the forum, to no avail. Saw a few similar posts, none had resolutions that worked 2.0 CFB_WIP_Base_Europe Rules_v2_Test.fmf

Following this. This issue has been plaguing FM for a while. Once you notice it, it kills the immersion. Hopefully once FM goes live we can pass over detailed analysis on this. Over the past few editions, some posters have done some great work highlighting this issue for the FM team.

Amazing tool, this is an absolute game changer. Thank you! One bug/issue I noticed is the foreground and background colors xml does not generate properly when generating the club output.

Long time FM editor enthusiast from the USA (FSU alum, go Noles), this database is a work of art. For years, I built private-use database with a 4 tier FBS division structure with conferences as secondary leagues, and bowl games as domestic cups. Even with that basic structure, build took forever...I can't imagine your build time on this. This database is everything I have ever dreamed of...incredible work. Been in the editor since FM 12, this is easily the best custom FM database I have seen- just from a technical standpoint. Feels like it could be its own game. One question, who is your favorite school?

Adding that this is still an issue I am seeing. New save today, simmed to 2035 and the English team is all above 25 years old. Kills the immersion on saves.

Thanks for the quick turnaround and giving transparency on Newgen attribute development- from SI's perspective. These issues (Like the crossing development on Fullbacks) have been an issue for years. I've mainly gone with Inverted Wing Backs, so I don't have to deal with some of the effects in long term saves. Always appreciate the Team's response on the forums, truly a rarity in today's Game development world.
