So you have a custom USA database and you can get the NACL by default? I'm trying one as well and NACL doesn't work for me. Curious as to what you have done with yours to make that work.

So I just saw latest release and see this bug wasn't fixed. Are you all done with the patching of FM23 and I should just expect this one to not be fixed?

I don't think so. I tried my main file and it still was missing the NACL. Disappointing.

Hey @nielsoncp I decided to test my happiness and wanted to see if the August 22nd crash still applies. I needed to update your NACL and US advanced files but had to make this fix to get around some weird Icelandic issue. It verified with that update but alas, it still crashes on August 22nd. I'm bummed that SI hasn't fixed this and my motivation to play this game is on life support.

I'll add my save as well. It's up on SI Cloud under the name of "East Valley FC.fm"

Ugh. I thought I did something with Daveincid's stuff added as well when it crashed for me. I just did a test and August 22nd it crashes for me as well. I was debating starting another save without that stuff. But odd as it worked when I holidayed into the future to test. Only failed when I was actually playing it. It's always gotta be something.

This looks sick. And I just got my US DB working with your NACL file as well. I am really liking what you did here and am going to give it a spin now. Well done

So unfortunately doing the MLS trick doesn't seem to work with Advanced rules. This is a bummer as my DB is "working" but has no NACL included in the game. I have tried a few things as far as adding the MLS into my league setup and still not seeing it. Again, the list of hardcoded items would really help out here as us DB editors are working blind trying to try random things to see if they work.

You might want to check to see if you still have North American Champions League. I created this bug to track it:

Thank you Zachary. I appreciate the info on this issue. What I don't want to do is keep the MLS as it's also hardcoded with draft and so many other things. I want to make an English-like system in the US. But it does help me figure out where to make updates and I'll report back here when I do. I know it's a hard ask but is there a way to get a list of what is hard coded in regards to the MLS? I think it will save considerable time for us US DB editors to be able to work around things like that and better enjoy the game.

Yeah I had seen STL was hardcoded in some previous tests. Here are my two files. But with MLS inactive and one with it not extinct as named in the files FM23_FirstImport_MLSInactiveNotExtinct.fmf FM23_FirstImport_MLSInactive.fmf

Ugh. I made MLS inactive but it's still not showing the NACL in my main DB. I even tried playing around with the extinct flag but both ways it won't show. I need to see if there's something else.

We might be going somewhere. I loaded that file up as well and also verifying my main DB with that change and hopefully it's good. With the DB you updated of mine, I see NACL and doing a holiday now while I wait for other to verify. But this might be it

What is custom about it?

I'd be willing to bet it has something to do with MLS hardcoding as I made it extinct in my DB.
