12 spots left after a day (35 taken, and 3 reserved :)), not bad at all, fastest ever (H)


And thanks, again, Hyun ;)

looking forward to this :D wonder where i will be, probably not first team :(

By position, I didn't bother to put the sides, too much work and many have 2 sides, so...

Goalkeepers = 3
Defenders = 12
Defensive Midfielders = 2
Midfielders= 5
Attacking Midfielders = 4
Forwards = 7
Strikers = 1

I count 34, but well, maybe it's my error.

We need another defensive midfielder, and all should be covered :crazyboy:

I just noticed your birthday is a day before mine, Ruud :crazyboy:

You should put one of your "specialties" as leadership.. you should be el capitan :( :D

until now, we have:
GK = 3
D = 12
DM = 3
M = 5
AM = 5
F = 7
S = 1

we have lots foward but no striker. can i help my friend post his stats? he also member of SGF, his nickname is MiCk_10. he once his state representative, due to his ligament injury and his study, he decide to leave the squad. after back from injury, he's top striker in my college during the fotball competition. he currently away to Makkah until the end of january. if ruud allow, i post his stats

We actually have four dedicated center forwards, and a striker. I'm afraid I can't allow people to sign up for others just yet, as people need to get a chance to sign up for themselves first.
If we have a spot left at the end, ok.

got it ruud ;)

I will post a picture tomorrow for the team.

lol

I chose to be a GK because IRL I play on that position, but I'm sure I'll be a sub :kader: , if not U-19 :( , except on my game :crazyboy:

how about we post our possible retrain position and side. every one max. only allow to retrain 1 new position and side. this could be interesting

Hey can my actual nationality be Lebanese, with Hungarian for EU reasons??? I think you said something about declared nationality on request in the first post or something...... so Lebanese first nationality, then Hungarian....cheers :)

Hey, when editing... how do you make into a patch??? Do you need a special program, or can you do it in FM Editor????

I use the editor, and Alex is creating an installer with the database and all the extra stuff in it, coz I suck at that. :)

Hmm.. I don't know if I should put my first nationality as Australian, because I won't really go very far on the international stage...

Yeah, Ruud, could you please make my nationalies - 1) German and 2) Australian?

Thanks

With all the Aussies in our squad, there's a good chance you'll be going far. And the German team is fake, so you would NEVER be selected. Unless you have edited the LNC folder in "\data\db\" :)

2 other Aussies :(

Ok, put me down for 1) Spanish and 2) Australian then :(

I just counted 9 Aussies :confused:

I recounted.. somehow I missed some people the first time.. but still only got 6... :o

Rob, Frostwolf, John_Arne_Riise, Parra Power, PaPaGeorGeo, doggy_j5, jbaseley, celtic_bhoy, Deutschland.

:)

I added Spanish as 1st, and have put German and Australian as other. Just let me know if you changed your mind :p

Ok, changed back :)

I'd be a group 2 then also, yeah?

I'm not entirely sure you are all talking about the same thing. :confused:

About what Group. Me, group 1, and Papageorgeo and Frostwolf are asking what group they are in

Ruud to settle this once and for all just posts the groups people will be in with ALL usernames.

One good thing - 1/2 of the Group 1s (or thereabouts) will be really old guys - Ruud and Alex are like.. late 20s - early 30's.. so current ability will be like 190 or something (H)

Come on... ability based on # of posts would just make people post boost...
I believe it should be based in post quality and not quantity... Ruud is often in the forum and he knows who contributes and who just doesn't have a life so I think he'll make it fair with the group divisions

looks like im going to be in the bottom group then since i havnt been around for ages :( aah well, lol

It would be too hard and unfair to many if we do that... by posts is better because posts are posts... and there won't be postboosting, a few extra posts in the short time we have will not change stats dramatically.

Acceleration, Pace ....



pshhhhhhhhhhhhh :rolleyes:

No, since hes been around since CM 01/02, he knows who has been around and who posts often (Quality, not quantity. TROD is an exception :p ). If you look at any thread, he's probably posted there. Twice. So he does get around, and he does see who posts alot.

EDIT: Obviously, I am talking about Ruud.

TROD has many, many, oh so very many, useless posts, but he also has the most usefull ones. Something I can't say about certain others.
:p

were u looking at yer self in the mirror when u made that post? :dragan:

I make the odd stupid post :D But not as many as Robert, also i do make some half decent ones too :)

yes. if you consider monitor (CRT) is another type of mirror (H)

If its based on quality of posts, rob won't make the groups, which is a bit unfair :(:D

if potential is based on the quality of your posts looks like im set to be the best player on the team by miles then (H)

Don't know if this will make it, but since I was on last years update, I'd like to make a repeat apperance...sadly i don't have a pic. :kader:

Originally posted by Fernandez

No, you used a picture of van Persie. When van Persie is an actual soccer player.. who is ACTUALLY in the game..

Other people (me included) have posted pictures of people/characters other than themselves, and Ruud has approved them.

Actually, I kind of did use that pic of Van Persie. Kind of.


Sign ups closed :)

Ahh, Ruud. Is it too early to ask for an estimate of when we can expect this patch? (H)

I estimate arrival before the end of the world. :jap:

max 2 weeks (testing and tuning will take some time, as the editor is quite slow)

hmm.. seems like i wont be playing it then. meh, i will during the holidays :crazyboy: (H)

2 weeks? good... just finished uni, I'll have some time to play it before the master degree exams... what? study for the exams? nah... not when I'm playing FM with SG Utd

:( The update won't work with v5.0.0, as the database structure has changed... Damn, that sucks.

Damn :(

Ruud, can't you edit the data in 5.0.0 editor? I believe a 5.0.0 database would be playable in 5.0.2
would that be too much work?

I could of course do that, but it would mean a good 5 hours of work, not counting all the testing that will have to be done again (12 hours so far...though I don't have to be present during the test-runs).
:(

I'm a complete n00b in this case but isn't it possbile to release a 5.0.0 version and a 5.0.2(?) version.

I could do that if the 5.0.0 version doesn't hold up on 5.0.2.

How many people still use 5.0.0, btw, and isn't there an option for them to patch the game? Would save me a LOT of trouble...

I think that we can all get the patch, i dont think it would be right to insist you to make it all over again as you have done much allready.Most people around here are using the patch anyway.

I dont think anyone is using 5.0. Just go with the patched version. Plus u can always download the patch.

I use 5.0.2 and I believe most people here use the latest version so if it's too much of a trouble, just make it a "5.0.2 only" patch... if testing is your issue though I can test it... I can leave my pc on 24/7 running FM most of the time...

I'm playing with the 5.0 version :| when I tried to install the patch, it told me to uninstall FM, and I'm like **** that **** I'm not abandoning my City game :|

backup the game then...

TROD.

so whats doing exactly? ive been away for a few days, doesnt seem like much is progressing?
I have 5.0.2 ne way,
when u uninstall fm, doesnt it leave the save game files anyway since they are saved in 'My Docs' and it only uninstalls the game from it's Football Manager folder etc... u kno what im saying
but yeh, simply cut and paste ur save game somewhere and then reinstall it... ;)

Originally posted by doggy_j5

I'd say the only problem here is that too much was done on the 5.0.2 editor so yeah... we had a lot of progress (please note that when I wrote 'we' I meant Ruud...)

:p

Actually, the hands-off testing of the patch on 5.0.2 just concluded. Won't be as easy the previous versions :p
I've suddenly been given a day off tomorrow, so I'll be able to do the 5.0.0 work then, and try some stuff with that (and see if that version behaves the same on 5.0.2) during the next few days.

I have 5.0.2 now, dont do the 5.0.0 work since I dont have it and I'm the most important person here (H) :p :(

well I thought the only reason to do the 5.0.0 work was that it could be used by those using 5.0.2 when the opposite isn't true... but whatever you say Rony!

Just 13 players to go, and some EU-ification of certain countries, before the 5.0.0-based update will be complete.
Then: testing

yay

I dont understand y waste time on 5.00 when ev1 has 5.02? It must a b**ch for you to do it for two databases.
Just caring about your free time.;)

Don't worry, I also spent 3 hours with my girlfriend today. :shades:


If a 5.0.0 version works well on both 5.0.0 and 5.0.2, that means that everyone will be able to enjoy the update, even the people that don't want to patch their game (for what ever reason).

Am i created yet? :p
