Today, we are glad to bring you the first full-blown complete database editor for EA Sports' UEFA EURO 2004.

DBEdit++ provides you with all the editing capabilities that you can think of for the database. From editing players attributes to creating teams, it should make the lives of roster editors much easier.

Unlike UniDB, DBEdit++ offers a user-friendly interface, supporting multiple documents, which means you can open multiple windows at the same time. This allows you to compare different teams and players.

The following gives only some of the amazing features that DBEdit++ offers:

- Edit all player attributes and information (including names)
- Edit all team attributes and information (including names)
- Edit all team kit attributes (not including texture)
- Edit team formations, lineups, kick takers and captains
- Transfer and clone players between teams
- Create player
- Create team (need to manually add all the required graphics, as it onlys add the team to the database)
- Player Search
- Remove player from team
- Editing and transferring players not assigned to any team (Free Transfers)
- Editing Dream Team player selections
- Text Manager, which allows you to edit all in-game text
- Import/Export individual teams for easy distribution in patches
- Windows XP style interface
- Compatible with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP

All these features for a mere 1.2 Mb download!

Does that mean there will be 52 teams, or will it replace another team?:confused:

It's a new team in the database, i.e. >51 teams. The only thing is that DBEdit++ currently doesnt add the kits and other graphics required for the team to play a match.

This is really a great tool but there's a problem:
Every time that I'm trying to assign a specific face ID I am getting an error.
I was wondering if you can help me with this subject.
Thanks

What exactly are you doing (what did u type or click) and what is the error message?

It is my mistake Hercules....I just don't know how to import face...
Your program is the best there is, There are no bugs!
btw: will you publish a version which will include a face preview?

Soon, I will start work on a version which includes many of the graphics, such as kits, face previews.

If any of you can tell me what some of the numbers mean in-game for some of the drop-down boxes (see what changes they make in game), I can put them into the program as well.

Hi Hercules, nice program as always!
I was wondering why you put only 5 slots for substitute players and not 7 as you can choose in the game!!
Would you correct this please?
Thanx :)

he can you also install 2gf faces with it
because if i do that it will be going back to windows

amazing tool, Hercules :rockman:

Hi Hercules, can you help me??

When i click on Assign free id in apperance of player , there are an error!!Why??

if u have edited the database before, make sure you didnt assign any player with face id above 700.

1.that is have to install from new euro and really to edit??
2.the same happens if I want to add new team
Have you got Msn??

A got a little problem too:

When I try to remove the front number nothing happens. I uncheck the box and save and go back to see if it changed, but it doesn't. Not in-game or in the program (it becomes checked automaticly).

Any solution for this?

If you have edited the db using UniDB before, you must use UniDB to correct the error that you made. Valid Face IDs are from 0 to 700. Anything above 700 is non-standard.

Sorry my mistake, I forgot to add the code to do the changes for the 4 check boxes in the kits screen....oops..

This will be fixed in the next version.

Ok, great tool.


I got one question more Hercules:

Is it possible to make a program (not asking you to make one) that does the same job as access do after I used UniDB? So I can edit those db files, I don't have access and I really would like to edit those (aslo for future FIFA's) without a program that you made now, I don't always have time to wait, especially for demos I would need a program for that. Fifasoccer.ru made a program to edit the language files (LNG Edit), so something similar to that, but that also makes it possible to edit other db files, not only the language files.
I think Hakeem said there already is some programs that can do so, but I can't find any.

if i have the time, maybe.

But there are more important features to add at the moment.

Hercules,
I want to edit the kits for the Nederlands, but when I click on 'kits', I got an error and he quits the program.
What can I do?

If you have edited the database before, it is most likely that you have made an error. Either find that error using UniDB, or restore the default database.

I didn't mean for this tool. But a tool to edit the access-files after they have been converted from db.

Now we have to use:
UniDB-->Microsoft Access

But I mean:
UniDB-->X (any other tool/program that does the same as Access)

If you look at the tables using Access, you can see there's only 5 players on each team with position 32 (sub), so I dunno

If you want to assign 398, just type 398. The button is for finding an unused number. Dont click it if you already know what number you want to use....:rolleyes:

But there are more than 2 players with 33 for most teams....so I think the current arrangement is the best. You choose the 5 that's definitely in the subs, and then the game choose 2 more..

Ok Hercules, of course it works as you say. :) I was wondering if we could assign 7 players with 32: in this way they should be all substitutes. For those teams where 32 players are only 5 don't mind, the other 2 will be assigned by the game (I think they would be choosen among 33 or even 35 players) ;)

try assigning to a team with 2 more 32 using access, see if that works.

if that works, i will try to implement in dbedit that if it sees a team with only 5 32's, it automatically upgrades 2 of the reserves to subs...

Do you have any idea when v.2 will be released?
Just wondering because of the numbers.

Within the week, I hope. It would be a v3 ;)

since Version 1 is considered to be DBEdit for FIFA 2004.

and oh yea, best team in the screenshot (H)

I've just added my team to euro, but there is a problem with the flags on the pop-ups and on the screen when the flag crosses the screen. It seems that the flags get automaticly swapped.

Do you know what I can do to change it?

Here is an example

when i give some player a new FACE ID and insert the files to the zdata_04
and then commres them using the BIgGui but then
it have a red and green texture in the game !:(
can ya help me guyz

EDIT: Do you know the answer for my problem Hercules?

ya i have the same problem as makat, but i imported using impbig, then run fatgui, i go ingame and he has missing texture all over him exept for his hair...

In a much later version. A later version than the one about to be released.

I can't seem to get rid of the front numbers.....it won't save the changes?!?

UUUPS!!! Somebody already asked that question....sorry!

Ok Hercules, experiment succeded! If you put 7 players with 32 they'll become straight substitutes!!
Then I noticed that the game, if there are only 5 players with 32 (or less), picks up players with 36 (not with 33!) to make 'em substitutes. Strange, isn't it?

Well so now you can implement your changes to your great tool!

Thanx and bye! ;)

Thanks for the information. I will add that to the editor in time for the next version.

do you know why 3 of my players have the number -1 in all modes except play now, when their real numbers show in dbedit??

read the help file section regarding Squad Numbers in Features->Team->Players

oh ok i did thanks, one of the guys number was 23 lol the others were in the 40's...

IT IS HERCULES SON OF ZEUS!!

I have a problem adding faces. I added one fine, then after I add more the game crashes. Am I doing it wrong? First I add the files using BigGui then I compress them. Then I fun Fatgui. After one face it works, but then I add another face and it crashes.

If you want to add faces to zdata04.big stop using Bigguy, it's too buggy.
Here's what you have to do:

1) Compress the 3 file for a face with gfxpak (a little dos prog, easy to use)
2) Import the compressed files in zdata04.big with EA Graphics Editor (I use v 1.04b)
3) Run Fatguy
4) Set the correct face number for the player using DBEdit++

If you do so, no more problems at all! :D

Bye

and can you also import boots for fifa 2003
with gfxpak

Nice work guys!:)

How I will know the IDs referring to each face, hair, skin? Exists a manual for this?

I know you are busy for this kind of things, but I would like to express the same problem as nor-rbk. Team logos became swapped after the installation of a brand new team (in my case I added a completely new logo). I can't understand the cause...

Please lemme know when you have time!

Thnx so much! :D

Hi I've got another little question to pose you: why can't we add a new team with a rank number bigger than 51? I noticed that adding a new team with your editor will give it a rank number equal to 51.
Thanx and bye ;)

New version (3.0) is now out at www.fifaecp.com

hey, is it possible to add 3rd kits to teams in euro??

I can't dl it the link isn't working for some reason, can you email it to me? slayerdeus@hotmail.com thanks!

Hi!, link isn't working, can you email it to me?
jsolano1@racsa.co.cr
Thanks!

How do i import the hungary transition flags into the game, is it possible via DBEdit?

Hercules, please fix the link!
Anyone who has the newest version please send it to me:
nadsag1@walla.co.il
Thanks!

the file server was down, but it seems to be back up now

i've found a bug.
When you type in the kit window of a euro2004 team the value of short number x and short value y the value return to 0 and the game crash

I have a request for the newer version: Please make a 3d head shape of the player so we will know which face texture and hair he's having!
btw: geat tool!

What values did u type in?

whatever values(ex 0.38).
I insert this value in the text box)short number x in the home kit window) and when i select the away kit the value return to 0.I save the db and when i running game the game crash at begin of match.
Please fix that.

Please fix that.

If you are typing commas, use fullstops for the decimal point. If you are using fullstops, use commas for the decimal point. You are probably not using the format that you are supposed to use according to your Windows locale.

the problem isn't this...
Open DBEdit++ 3.0
-Load Euro 2004 database
-Select a team(eg Greece)
-Go to the kits button.
You see the kit detail of team
Go to Kit type combo and select Away without any mod.
Go to kit type combo and select Home and short values go to 0!
Without any mod!
That's the problem Hercules..

yep, as i thought, it's a locale problem. It's fixed for the next version, for the time being, you can go to the Control Panel and set the decimal point to "." instead of ","

How can I add a player and choose which ID# he is?

you cant

hi hercules
i was wondering whether u could help me.
i've got this problem with DBEdit, everytime i load the fifa.db file, about a thousand error messages pops up and says "Team ID X Not Valid" where X is any number from 1 to 2000. Nethertheless, the file loads but where all the team names and competition names are supposed to be, the boxes are blank and i have to look for each team by trial and error. Worst of all, when i try and save it the error messages pop up again which makes saving impossible. Please can u help, i've spent ages trying to figure this out..... please!!!!! help!!!!!!!!!:f***: :f***: :f***:

You are loading the wrong language database. Go to options and select the correct language database (not the default eng.db, as that caused the problems)

hi buddy,
first don't ask like that, hehe, hercules did a great job with DBEdit ++.... maybe the problem is that your database is screwed, so then you need to copy the original database from the CD...
It works fine for me (euro 2004)...

you know how there's English and spanish language options ingame for Asia/Pacific version, is it possible to add more languages ingame

Thanks Hercules
ur a star
:rockman: :rockman: :rockman:

Hey man I have a question. I added FC Porto to the game, and when I try to change the formation I get an error and then two players are missing from the squad, what does this mean?

send me the db files at fifadata@yahoo.co.uk

sent, thanks for your help.

hey robbie, you can change the language but not ingame... just find some buddy who has the game in another language and ask him for the XXX.big (where XXX is the language abreviation)

Then replace this file instead of the ENG.db or another u like... and select in game the one you've replaced.... (the only problem is that the LOADING screens will be in the original language)

Thanks mucho man. Just wonderin, can you tell me what you did so I can fix it myself next time. You can pm me if you want.

just used unidb to change the teamplayer links table to make 2 Porto players have position of less than 32. Then i just go back to DBEdit to change formation.

Hi Hercules, i've another probelm, I transfered figo and zidane into my career team (aston villa) but when i tried to load the career file, the game crashed and automaticall closed itself. Is there anything i can do or do i have to replace the fifa.db file from my CD?

As far as I know, you can't edit a career team that already exists, otherwise the game will crash. Am i right Herc?

how do i edit the skill number of a player in euro 2004?

EG:

That depends on the stat points you've assigned to each player

no matter what i do my created player doesnt have a head on the game.

Hercules , I have used the superpatch from fifamania to import the correct names and faces of Holland players in the game.
They put the textures of the players in the main directory without compressing.They also use the faces of FIFA2004.
Now I also put some new faces (from fifa2004 ) in the main directory , and assigned free ID to the players.
I also edited the texturesnumbers to the same as the ones which were free in DBedit.
The faces now appear correctly in the game , but after ending the first game it returns to windows.What did I do wrong?
In my opinion I do the same thing as the patchmakers which works ok.The only point by importing textures from Fifa2004 is the black fingers.
Please help.

Where do u get the faces

That is a good question.
one of them from fifa4fans.
I downloaded them from several sites to be used for FIFA2004.
But it seems that my problem is solved.
After re-installing EURO2004 the problem occurred again.
Then I cleaned my hd from all patches like ultima2004 , and superpatches and also used regedit to clean the remainings of those patches in the registry , I finally installed the no-cd patch.
After all those actions I installed FIFAMANIA EURO 2004 SUPERPATCH 1.0 and 5 additional faces of V.Hooydonk,Robben,van der SAr, Bouma and Heitinga(alldirectly copied in the main directory).
It seemes to work fine after playing about 5 games.
Hopefully this can help more people.
By the way : I assigned free ID to those 5 players using DBedit 3.1.
I must say that I admire the knowledge of people like Hercules to be able to make such editors.
It only is pitty not to be able to have a preview of the faces in the editor.

Hi Hercules, how do you do?
I wanted to ask something about shoecolor in euro 2004. Can you explain the fact that you can select just white (1) and black (2) colors for shoes? The other colors just seem not to work... If you choose another color (different from black or white) then the game just ignores the choice and puts black shoes anyway!
This is a matter of the game obviously, not of the database but it's curious, I can't understand... :(

Hey Hercule, great program!

Once again...;)


Ok to my question, Will you be adding a face preview?

:D


@Fiordy

Boot colors also do not work for me.
