May have been inspired in this line of thinking by @phnompenhandy's career thread, but what about moving Orkney (back) to Norway? Throw in some of the other Isles too (Anglesey was Norse for a couple of years a millennium or so ago IIRC ). Always have a good chuckle when stories like this come up https://www.scotsman.com/news/scottish-news/orkney-and-norway-relationship-explained-4214819

Haven't touched CONCACAF CL or anything so it should work fine. Although I thought I saw in the bugs forum someone said that the NACL and the Libertadores don't add to a team's history (showing the trophies and competitions won). That might be a default issue. I wonder if there's a box or something we can check for that

The Club World Cup is STILL host to all kinds of preseason fitness issues, so we can only guess that for the devs to fix whatever coding results in being unable to field a competitive team would have too many knock-on effects with other preseason stuff and we're just limping into FM25 with a broken CWC to start fresh with the new game engine next year. As a result, the best we can do is move the whole thing up by four weeks - unrealistic, yes, but so is fielding a team of 4 players because the rest of your team are on holiday (). This takes the existing summer tournament scheduled for 2025 and makes it finish 4 weeks later with the final on Community Shield weekend (which should get bumped if you're in both). I'm not sure how the default version grabs the 5th-12th European teams (IRL it's a 4-year ranking), I've gone with the 8-year club coefficient you can sort by in the editor. Also updated the prize money. If anyone has noticed any other issues with the CWC so far let me know, this will have the same problems as the default version but we can fix it here (working on making the US host 2025 every time). DOWNLOAD (backup) (NOTE THAT THIS MAY NO LONGER BE REQUIRED SINCE THE LATEST OFFICIAL UPDATES) Compatible with: USA 2024 | Intercontinental Cup | CONCACAF to Libertadores | Russian clubs to ACL

Oh I see it, the Intercontinental Cup added today? Yeah will probably throw it in when I clean up the 2025 Club World Cup to deal with the preseason fitness issue. Those December tournaments are always a good way to end the season for MLS teams Also have to imagine they'll implement this in a future patch, especially now that it can be a different competition ID and won't mess up qualifying for 2025 (presumably why they didn't add the December 2023 one to FM23 at any point)

"get all teams from division" was working with team's secondary divisions as of this morning, but those were all in active leagues so maybe that's it. Not sure if there's a way to mass-register teams. Anyway you're welcome

Editing award histories still bugged?
themodelcitizen commented on themodelcitizen's issue in Pre-Game Editor
I think it's the same issue that's been present for a few years now: -
Posted this in the bugs forum but I'm hoping someone will have dealt with this in the past, I recall something similar happening in previous versions but can't remember if I figured out a workaround or if it was just fixed in a patch. I'm able to add an entry, but as soon as you add a new one (either by pressing "add" or duplicating an existing entry), then editing a specific field in one entry will actually change the same field from another year entirely. Sometimes it's the one below, sometimes it's the last one you were on, sometimes it doesn't seem to have any logic, but it's not changing the highlighted field that appears in the details panel. Clearing the editor cache did reset all of my preferences but didn't do anything about that. Am I missing something obvious?

Editing award histories still bugged?
themodelcitizen commented on themodelcitizen's issue in Pre-Game Editor
Ahh yeah I've found that and been able to reset the preferences (as evidenced by the wild screen resolution and folder paths)... still having the same issue, essentially if you try and alter the value on any entry (year, individual, team etc) it will pick another entry and alter that one instead, leaving the one you were actually trying to edit (and which was highlighted and showing up in the details panel). I remember this in previous versions but can't remember what the workaround was, if any. Has anyone else found a workaround? Immensely frustrating not being able to edit a single award history -
Ugh. You could try giving everyone in each local region a "secondary division" that's unused for anything other than to call teams? Might be more difficult to split them up by division in that case, some creative use of "ignore teams" maybe

Yes! With the ability to add a logo from the default licensed logos, or from the "small" subfolder in the graphics folder, so you could add a club logo (or default to your currently managed team). Heck, make competition logos accessible for the neutrals while you're at it:

[FM24] England Level 10 Now Released
themodelcitizen replied to lionel messi's topic in Editors Hideaway Download Forum FM24
Hmm yeah I swear there was a way, either by pressing ctrl+A to select all, or to copy and paste from another award (although then you have to reset other fields too) -
Hey I didn't say it was a simple fix facing the same thing for dozens (if not hundreds) of lower division US teams I wanted to call into certain cups that way

Stadium pool in a league competition not working
themodelcitizen replied to Mons's topic in Advanced Rules Editing
For teams to play their designated home games at various stadia in a specific league competition, you can also just go into league settings and then at the bottom is "specific alternative stadiums used for fixtures in league stage". Tell it however many games you want them to play at this alternate stadia. This is easier than going into the team's "stadium" and just giving them an alternate stadium for various 1 or 2-week periods. For the stadium pool, as long as "randomise stadiums" is activated and UNCHECKED, then the stadia in the stadium pool will now become stadium_0, stadium_1, stadium_2 etc. Randomise is useful if you want, say, a cup final to be randomly picked from a list of pre-selected stadiums. I think the fixture differences above may be because the games are scheduled at the same time? But you can have multiple games per stadium per day (not sure you even need that box checked) as long as they're at least 2 hours apart -
One more big update, the MLS teams are dropping out of the Open Cup starting next year. This means you won't get to take MLS scalps as a lower division team, but the chance to add a trophy and play in CONCACAF is definitely interesting (at least until they announce that there's no automatic place for the winner)
-
I believe all the region settings go by stadium location, so they all need to have a stadium set that's in that local region. Even then, getting teams that way can cause issues, someone said if you put them all under "registered teams" for that comp it should activate them but that might be too onerous depending on the number of teams. With some cups you can just uncheck "number of teams" and it will verify as if there's a lower amount of teams, but then they all show up in-game

[FM24] England Level 10 Now Released
themodelcitizen replied to lionel messi's topic in Editors Hideaway Download Forum FM24
It should work, I've noticed it when cloning a team of the week/player of the week and only changing the long name. The short name change seems to fix it. As long as short name shows up as an editable field when you mass edit, you should be fine. You could probably do the change back as a mass edit too, if you did all the "team of the week"s together (same short name, which is the source of this issue), "player of the week" etc. The source is duplicating existing awards, you're like "oh I only need to change long name to Southern County Team of the Week because the short name already says Team of the Week." But the duplicated short name will actually show as blank in-game unless it has a change registered
