FM26 "Increase-Realism"-Megapack DECEMBER EARLY-ACCESS (14.11.25) (Patreon)

14.11.25I've re-checked all files due to the latest update of Football Manager -> all worked fine. However, due to my release-schedule being streched at this stage, I took the opportunity to include some fixes for the Early-Access already which I usually do in the next months update.Fixes:- Adjustments of women's lower leagues in England- Adjustments of women's lower leagues in Germany- Adjustments of women Norway leagueA slight hint for the January update:As already communicated in a comment on Patreon, "Transfer preferences" are definetly part of the next months update, but let's say that this is one of the smaller files:P There will be much more files implemented for mens football and for womens football....let's say, if you think there will be a decent update then you're thinking way too small;) Download-Link at the bottom is updated.Wish you all a nice weekend! CheersDaveincidPS:As already communicated, my resources are very limited during this time of the year, so PM's and comments are probably only answered if a simple "yes" or "no" is enough as an answer. 07.11.25Hi everyone! Due to a lucky surprise I'm able to release the first version of my "Increase-Realism"-Megapack December BETA for Football Manager 26 before the game even comes out :DFOR BETA-Users:There was a fix for sub rules in the Saudi cup. Beside that, no changesBefore I go into details of the first update, I want to share some informations:1. It's the first update, focus was clearly on the major things I saw which I wanted to change immediately2. The FM26 editor messes up a lot of my files and I can also see some changes under the hood which needs a lot of testing first, please be patient3. It should be obvious but still, a reminder: Please do not share the download-link with anyone. It's for you only. This is crucial to continue the project like in previous years, thank you:)Soo....what's the first update about?FM26 "Increase-Realism"-Megapack DECEMBER Early-AccessA first quick analysis showed me that there are some known challenges in FM26 which are still present in FM26.For example:- Still very high market values, especially for elite players which leads to AI teams (plus human manager) being unable to buy players which leads to less transfers being made in general- General CA-development is still too high in longterm simulations. There are definetly improvements under the hood, especially in nationality spread of newgens for minor nations, well done SI!- Too few injuries in total which leads again to a lower level of squad rotation and a too "straight forward" player developmentSo...one part of the update focusses on re-balancing the above mentioned topics. At this stage, focus was on all nations, which have a playable league (men's league only, women's leagues are on my list;) )Furthermore I've added the following files during the ALPHA:- CA/PA adjustments: Over 1'000 changes for over 300 players. Focus was on longterm-balance in terms of getting the amount of top players down a bit more.- I've added the first 2 men's leagues in Saudi-Arabia*- Added Englands women's leagues down to level 4- Added Germanys women's leagues down to level 4- Added Norways women's leagues down to level 2So what can you expect from the first update?- More transfers being made in general + transfer fees demands are in a more realistic range- Reduced the increase of elite players in longterm saves- Increased squad rotation- Other QoL improvements- CA/PA adjustments: Over 1'000 changes for over 300 players. Focus was on longterm-balance in terms of getting the amount of top players down a bit more.- I've added the first 2 men's leagues in Saudi-Arabia*- Added Englands women's leagues down to level 4- Added Germanys women's leagues down to level 4- Added Norways women's leagues down to level 2This is it for the first update. I hope you like the changes! I'll keep you informed of what's happening in the next weeks asap. Everything is a bit chaotic at the moment:DPlease note:Due to this unexpected change of my schedule, I'm under a very high stress level, so in the next days I'll probably won't answer a lot of questions/PM's etc. unless they are very urgent. Bug-report/General feedback obviously is always welcome:)Now I wish you all a fully packed weekend full of FM26 and I'm curious to know how many of you may "pull a sickie" on Monday;)CheersDavidHOW TO INSTALL "Increase Realism Megapack" in FM26

Place all files (not the folder) in "Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2026/editor data".PS: I know that a lot of you may be in "panic mode" due to the new UI and UX. I really encourage you to give it a chance and especially...give it time. Sounds like a typical excuse but remember my words in let's say 2 months;) For me, Football Manager 26 has the potential (not quiet there yet CA wise;D) to achieve legend status for sure. ;)Link:https://www.mediafire.com/file/k3uln2rnpabjxxw/FM26_Increase_Realism_Megapack_DECEMBER_EARLY-ACCESS%252814.11.25%2529.zip/file
