Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

In the statistics, can I view the total number of team passes anywhere? I see individual player passes attempted and completed and percentage of passes completed but no total pass numbers that I'd like to compare with real-life teams.

I really like the quick applying of assistant advice in the ME, and also I like how the panels go transparent when the ball is in play behind them. I also like how more actions are available straight from the inbox. Makes things much easier and more efficient.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

So I created a journeyman game just to see who I would start at and I'm a bit surprised at the outcome. I've sort of put my Portadown game aside for a bit as I lost a bit of motivation with it. So for now, onto the journeyman game!

With these leagues running - Belarus, Chile, Croatia, Hong Kong, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa and Switzerland - I managed to become manager of Kitchee in the Hong Kong First Division. That name might not mean anything to most people, but they're the 2nd biggest club in Hong Kong, which is why I'm confused I managed to get the job!

I selected my start date as Belarus I think, which meant that the season in Hong Kong was almost over. As it stands, I sit 5th, 5 points behind the leaders with 6 games remaining, but have a game in hand over them. However, everyone above me, excluding the leaders Yokohama, also has a game in hand.

It'll be an intriguing finish.

So I am doing a save with Minnesota United of the NASL (for a FM Story on another website) once the game comes out and I can use the editor. Right now I have been playing around with SSD2 creating kits. What do you think?

So, remember in my little book picture there where I beat Alcorcon 7-1? Well I figured it was an aberration, something was terribly wrong, whatever.


Real Madrid 13-0 Alcorcon

Updated to 14.1.1 to help with some crashes. Don't be alarmed if you can't find your saved game when it first loads up. Just go to load game and it should be there. You'll also have to change your preferences.

Anyone elses game peformance go down? I haven't actually tested it but in the preferences I went from 5* to 3 1/2*

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

First trophy attained in my journeyman game!



We actually started the last day in third position, but thanks to a South China loss and a Yokohama draw, we took home 1st. In the 6 games we had, we won 5 and drew 1, so came home strong and it almost wasn't enough!

I'm already looking to move, more for the reason that I seem to be able to comfortably beat most of the sides in Hong Kong and that if I stay any longer, I might not be able to leave! I'm not sure where yet, Europe is a possibility but we'll wait and see.

I updated too and my beta crashes every 5-10 minutes, I've never got a crash before the update. Guess I'll just wait until Thursday.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Got this couple days ago and messed around with it, still getting used to hang of the tactics.

Started a save with Derby since they had great facilities, was hoping I would stay in this league for about 3 years and then hopefully get promoted to EPL when most of my players are developed. However, I only got 1 point in 5 matches, that's not good.

I'd just use the real kits. But that's because I actually go to their games.

Honestly, they do look pretty good and close to the actual colors. Though, they don't have a shirt sponsor. Are you starting with the actual roster?

Yes Sir!! The roster is already set in the game. Once the editor is out I will be making the US DB down to the NPSL and will start with Minn Utd. This is all for my career on the FM Scout website. I am starting year one with the current kits but afterwards I am going custom.

That's what I'm hoping to do with the official RTE

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

For those of you with facepacks and want to download the official dark skin, follow these instructions to avoid long delays in loading your game:

1. Go to your graphics folder with your kits, facepacks, and stuff and change the name graphics to something else
2. Load the game and go to the downloads section
3. Go to steam workshop and you should see the dark skin download listed. Install
4. Exit game, change back your renamed graphics folder to graphics again
5. Get addicted

I tried installing the new skin last night, and it was taking an awful looong time for the game to process so I thought the game had frozen. What was actually happening was that steam workshop was taking my graphics folder and converting it to steam friendly and with all the kits, facepacks, and logos, it was taking a ridiculous amount of time not to mention space on my computer. So I went on to the forums and it was suggested to rename your graphics folder temporarily to get around this. It worked Only ****ty thing was that I had to delete 2.36 GB worth of duplicate facepacks and logos lol

I might have gotten a bit carried away.... especially for playing on a laptop...
Oh well

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Hmmm...I've tried the advice above but when I get to the main menu and select "Downloads," it does nothing. I reinstalled the game, and still the same thing. I'm unable to get the editor or the dark skin that I subscribed to in the workshop. Any advice?

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Any of you guys have recommendations for relegation tabbed teams in Liga BBVA, BPL or any of the lower English Tiers that have decent funds, facilities and wages? Doing a Chivas USA save for my usual MLS one I use to bounce between whatever European team I use but can't come up with a team yet.
