Update 03.03.23
The german language file was in the wrong folder. (main folder instead of "german". This is now fixed. Please delete the file "Geographics & Languages german version.fmf" if you do not play the game in german

hello everyone!

The winter update is just 24 hours old and the first ALPHA version is already ready:) There were a lot of adjustments needed to get it to work. More about that further down below.

Important:

In such a short time it is impossible to be able to adjust everything perfectly, but by now I have a good feeling and experience how it will fit ;)

If you are not yet familiar with the changes of the March update, which was not published publicy, it is worth taking a look here to get an overview of what will also be available in the April update:

My two cents about the Winter Update of Football Manager:

Some changes have been made, which also affects my work. I assume that some of my files will no longer be needed and/or will have to be adapted.

You can find the changelogs for SI's winter update here:

I will go into some points in more detail:

- Tweaks to development loans for AI teams

This fix is great and makes the file: "Staff attribute adjustments" mostly superfluous, so it was removed for the April-Alpha.

- Fixed an issue where high CA players retain relatively high physical attributes late in their careers

This change makes the file "player attribute adjustments" mostly superfluous, because it does exactly what I wanted to achieve with my adjustments.

- Improvements to International squad selection logic to help younger players get called up more often

This is also a great improvement, although its effectiveness depends heavily on the database selected and the fix I just mentioned with the attributes of older players. The problem was thus "solved" in terms of attributes. What is unfortunately still a problem is that the reputation of young players is too low. Thus, other files of mine (Awards, Club Transfer Preferences etc.) are still enormously important for the whole problem. However, the fixes are really cool and support the effectiveness of my other files even more :)

Besides these changes, other problems like the problem regarding league rules/stadium requirements were solved (at least in a few nations). France, Belgium and Spain seem to work, Italy still does not.

The file "club finances" now only contains adjustments for China and South Korea (finances are still buggy). All the other Nations need a more indepth check.

What is planned this month:

1. 2 parallel save-games are currently running (setup medium: 1x with mods and 1x without) These are currently in the year 2027. I will analyse these over the next days and upload both saves to Patreon over the next week.

2. for the impatient who want to play with custom league files;) :

Most files can be verified without problems in the editor (File-> Load Editor data -> Rules -> Test Rules ->All -> File -> Save Editor Data -> Done).

As usual, I don't upload files from other creators, so the whole thing requires a little effort from your side. I was able to verify over 80% of all files. For the other files it still needs a little more patience. Whether they will work without problems is not guaranteed, but I assume so.

I think that's all!

As always, all files are available in the link.

Have fun!

Cheers

David
