Hey, anything can happen if you run FIFA. They had a continental rotation process that was only used to award 2010 and 2014 before going to the current block last 2 hosts rule. With the amount of transcontinental bids that will eventually come I suspect that's gonna be dissolved soon for the ol dollar...

Generally this has been an issue since FM23 (Maybe even FM22!). Something about there being more than the expected number of continental club competitions making the national coefficients glitch over to 0. I don't think there is a fix, and if there is you'd probably have to go into Advanced Rules and pick the nations the competition "applies" to so there's only two insignificant nations there. If this was a worldwide competition I would choose two nations from South America or Oceania because that doesn't mess up Copa Libertadores/OFC CL spots, but since this is Europe and the FM Gods haven't fixed it yet (And I doubt they will even when we get to FM25), that's the only way that it's gonna be lessened.

Afraid that you're going to have to update this again... https://www.cafonline.com/news/the-inaugural-african-football-league-afl-kicks-off-in-october-2023-and-will-be-preceded-by-official-draw-on-saturday-2-september-2023/

And you thought I wasn't gonna make another database for FM23, huh? Like what was announced between CONMEBOL and UEFA, this is a one-off game held during preseason (I set the first year to the middle of July just like the inaugural edition, but it can drift to August) between the Europa League and Copa Sudamericana winners. 90 minute match then straight to penalty kicks, with 12 from 12 substitutions. The competition isn't set to rotate hosts from year to year like the Finallisima (Sometimes it can be held in Europe for multiple years in a row and vice-versa with South America), but each team does receive a cool €500,000 for participating as well as satellite broadcasting money. It does run in 2022 in case you start in preseason with Eintracht or Paranaense. Screenshots: If there's any problems or any expansions you want me to do for this, please let me know.

Hey, sorry about literally not bringing this out like I was supposed to. The combination of the 23.4 update's Iceland bug and school commitments made me honestly reconsider doing this project, and it's safe to say that it's been shelved. With the recent LIV-PGA Tour "merge" announcement, I'll probably have to shake up the project even more for FM24. As of right now, the plans would call for LIV being formed as a league within CONCACAF (Probably based in like Montserrat since they don't send teams to the Caribbean Club Shield) and for the TGL (Which is its own separate thing) to be based in another Caribbean non-Shield participating nation or as a separate cup competition within the United States with its teams also participating in the US Open Cup. Or some other stuff like that, I dunno. It's gonna be hyper dependent on college and even then I'm not sure if I'm gonna have it out! So again, sorry for not putting this out. Admins, please lock this thread.

I agree, since we haven't gotten a timetable, list of clubs or anything since it was announced last year, and I'm not gonna be surprised if it's delayed to 2024-25 or 2025-26. Maybe we will see more information at the CAF General Assembly next week?

With the teams fully announced for 2023 (Okay, just the team names, designs and their captains) I realized that I'm gonna have to change a biiit more about this database than I originally thought. Cleeks, Iron Heads and Crushers will be the only ones that will have the same kits and colors. Everyone else will have entirely different looks from this database compared to the FM22 mod. I mean that Majesticks logo does look sick...

With the final schedule confirmed, I am pleased to announce the locations for the 12 teams for this LIV Football database! Those with asterisks (*) have had their locations changed from the previous database. 4Aces Football Club - London, England Cleeks Football Club* - Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Crushers Football Club - Newark/Harrison, New Jersey, USA Fireballs Football Club* - Washington, DC, USA HyFlyers Football Club - Chicago, Illinois, USA Iron Heads Football Club* - Singapore Majesticks Football Club* - Tucson, Arizona, USA Rangegoats Football Club (Originally Niblicks)* - Cancun, Mexico Ripper Football Club (Originally Punch)* - Adelaide, Australia Smash Football Club* - Orlando, Florida, USA Stinger Football Club* - Cadiz, Spain (Even though they stay in the same country...) Torque Football Club - Miami, Florida, USA (I did say 75% for a reason...) The LIV Football Cup (The entire thing) will be held in King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It's odd that I predicted the Saudi finals in my first database, not gonna lie. The LIV Futures and Reserves Cup knockouts will be held in West Virginia, USA. Expect the database to drop next month!

Another update, and another one concerning stadiums. First of all, it's likely that Crushers will stay in Harrison due to some um... Connections with a former United States president. That isn't confirmed, but it is certain. As for the newly announced locations - I am 75% sure that Torque will move from Miami to Tucson, Arizona, with Miami becoming solely the Cup final group location. For Tulsa, Oklahoma - Whoever loses the Cleeks v Niblicks battle for Cancun will move into ONEOK Field. As for plucky West Virginia - Most likely they, along with Miami, will be the two locations that will miss out on hosting a League team. They might get the Reserves and Futures Cup Finals though.

You have the mind of one Arsene Wenger. LOL. But regardless, that would basically be impossible and wouldn't line up per say with the LoL calendar. I could try to replace the UEFA competitions with a LEC equivalent or replace the CONCACAF competitions with a LCS equivalent though. And make the PCS actually a playable competition.

Another update on this project, this time relating to the teams! LIV Golf have announced four (!) additions to their 2023 schedule, and since this is mostly a copy of LIV Golf but in the football world, those changes must apply here. Punch FC (Or whoever they will be renamed to) will move from Bangkok (Where they were for the FM22 version of the save) over to the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide, Australia. Punch in IRL LIV are an Aussie team led by Cam Smith, so this would be the most natural fit. Iron Heads FC will most likely move from Jeddah to Singapore and occupy the National Stadium (Unless Jeddah stays on the LIV Golf calendar in which case another team, likely Cleeks or Niblicks, will take their place). Not sure on who will move to Cancun (Which is close to Mayakoba, which will host a LIV event) and play at the Estadio Andrés Quintana Roo. If Jeddah keeps its place, it's likely Cleeks or Niblicks/whoever they get renamed to. Stinger will absolutely stay in Spain, but won't take up residence at the Wanda Metropolitano again. Since Valderrama is close to Cádiz, they'll play at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla and share with the LaLiga outfits from the city. That's it for team news, I'll be back with more updates during the holidays.

And Nashville's B team is Huntsville City.

This database reworks the Club World Cup structure entirely and replaces the yet-to-be-implemented 24 team quadrennial format for FIFA's world championship for clubs with one based (Very roughly) on the League of Legends World Championship, the most prestigious eSports tournament for the Riot Games title League of Legends. The Club World Cup expands to a 36 team tournament held annually, home and away, between clubs from all over the world to decide the true world champions. Teams from outside League's traditional qualification spots compete in a Group Stage and two knockout rounds, with the 4 teams advancing to a second, main Group Stage to face off against the strongest teams from Europe, North America, China, South Korea and Southeast Asia in 4 groups of 4. The top 2 teams from each group here advance to the Knockout Stage, made up of the Quarter-Finals, Semi-Finals and Final, with the winners being crowned World Champions.

Think of this as a little... I would make an Armistice Day thing but I decided against it. Anyways, yes, there will be a logo pack containing all LIV teams! And yes I got it to work all on my own... Lucky bugger... Yes, I know the team pics are small as hell, I'll make them bigger for the official release.

Hello there, I'm working on my LIV Football database from FM23 and I wanted to do a group stage and knockout format for my Reserves and U19 cups. When running through the Advanced Editor it shows me this: Is there a workaround for this? I fixed up ranking rules and that didn't help things. For extra context: For both cups the group stage runs from 7 July 2000 to 6 August 2000 and the knockouts start on 19 August 2000, with group stage matchdays on Wednesdays. UPDATE: I am a doofus. Accidentally removed qualification settings. It's back up and it works perfectly.
