Hello everyone,

vote for Update 36 is still ongoing, because Update 35 is for two weeks.

In Update 34.5 will be added Armenia/Armenia+, Cape Verde and Japan.

  • Armenia - added levels 3/4

  • Armenia+ - added missing things (cities/stadiums)

  • Cape Verde - added level 1 + cup + youth league

  • Japan - added levels 4/5 with format change (from spring/autumn to autumn/spring), added JFL Cup (cup between end of 2025 season and start of 2026/27 season), added U21 League/U18 League

This week is little special, because Update 35 will take two weeks, in meantime there is smaller Update 34.5 in which are added last two missing nations.
First missing nation is Cape Verde, where system is little bit more complicated, because each island has it's own league+cups where winners play final tournament for the title. There are lots of missing competitions (cups/super cups), so things are little bit simplified.

Last missing nation is Japan, there is change in format from 2026/27 where J.League and JFL are going to be played autumn/spring, but Regional Leagues are played still spring/autumn, at least in 2026, because I have no idea how they want to combine promotion/relegation with JFL, but in game every level has to move to new format, so everything can work correctly. Because of all the changes, things are slower, so right now I'm trying to make the most things I can. Added is from 2026/27 U21 J.League which is starting in that season and in case of U18 right now I have level 1 finished but I want to add level 2 too.

Between FM24 and FM26 there are added missing things into database, so I could make level 3/4 without making it "plus" database. Level 3/4 are in Armenia amateur and they are played more like tournament, where teams are divided into two groups with knockout phase after. In plus version are added missing cities and stadiums.

With Update 34.5 all nations are done, so we can start expanding again things and completing all "plus" versions from FM24 to FM26. In Update 35 will be added Slovakia+ and it's level 6, it is quite big, so if there will be something more added it will be probably some smaller "plus" database (Afghanistan, Paraguay) and/or something from women side.
Last thing is that sometimes I get questions about when will be added level 7 to Czech Republic, I have big plans with it and some ideas how to rework some things, but all will be done after Romanian full pyramid release, so please have little bit of patience, because it will be done.

As always thank you for your support and I wish you nice weekend :)

Excellent work!

Did you create a database that didn't include the Africa Nations Cup in the first year?

Hi, sorry to bother you. I wanted to let you know that when I try to start a new career, Japan is locked. Do you happen to know how I can fix this? Thanks!

Hi, it should work with FM26 same like in FM24 If you are using Japan for a first time please delete some files in installation folder of FM so you don't get error of not enough teams in Japan: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2024\data\database\db\2400\dbc\permanent the install folder might be different but you have to delete it in 2400 (default db) and 2430 (24.3.0 db): japan.dbc japan_loans.dbc 1_japan_removed_clubs.dbc japan_fake.dbc With deleting these files everything should work.
