Hi my friends!
I am making patches since 2008, alone or with GSP team. This year was really hard. Work, work and work, limited time for editing. I fact I bought the game in 11 December 2013. The only work I did was to make almost all kits for the greek Superleague for my good friends crazy and Daniel in Fifa Infinity! Their patches were both great and I have to honestly congratulate them for their work!
I made this section because I personally want to include some basic EA standards in my own game and (why not?) everyone's one. Moreover I need help and this is the main reason that I focused my attempt in Soccergaming forums. I mean that I want here people with knowledge in editing/creating e.g. flags, banners, balls, people to manage Revolution Mod works (I apologize I have not idea about this fantastic project). Everyone who helps is automatically credited and copyrighted. Especially people who give a habd in difficult sections have the possible extented rights in this patch (sharing/download sections). In Greece only me and pao4ever studied, experimented and worked so much. Moreover, as I want betatesters, I can find enough ammount of them here considering the dissapointing results of my previous attempts.
What I did so far:
I was able thanks to the great tools of Rinaldo to make the entire Superleague Greece including all the 18 teams, exluding of course the annoying existing of AEK inside. Also I inserted the OPAP Greek Cup inside. Both of these tournaments have been tested hard by me and worked fine in tournament and career mode.
So, what's the +plus?
1) These competitions do not repalce any other league or infect the structure of other Leagues. They are playable without making any change in the other tournaments. I used as protype/prototype the Netherland League (same ammount of teams) and using the Creatinon Master I added in Fifa Greece (tournaments) and pasted the whole Holland's structure inside (stages, groups, copied 2D trophies, replaced dutch teams with greek ones in the new structure and so on). I used turkish league ID's 68 and cup 268 because I know by people inside that this has to make the game stable in working. Although I knew the Greek original ID I did not use it because of the old ID of Greek Cup (24).
Greek teams have the original EA ids (important too fof the game stability, people can find them by googling in SG).
Moreover I have insered all the players using their original IDs and ratings with Sofifa (great site) help and my installed fifa games in my pc (09,10, 11 and so on), even and for lower interest players and nation (Robbie had released a database with all national team and players database in past with all authentic IDs). Of course in order to succeed I focused in this inside SG great thread
http://www.soccergaming.com/forums/showthread.php?t=187657&page=11 and a similar one in the same forum section and followed the instructions in modding the proper dlc files. I added lines assigned to my new competition there and in the db in the sheet leagueteam links I assigned to the created greek teams the dutch team datas according to the team positions. For example, Ajax data to Olympiakos, 18th dutch to 18th greek team. This is importan to be done because almost all do not give a penny to this, but it has to do with how normally the tournament goes on, instead of watching the 15 team champion winner!!! (it has important things inside like team form, year targets and others). I edited also teamplayerlinks because of the important data it has inside (top scorer of team, yellows, player form, things that if you insert a new team are all random or zero). Even Lattude and longtitude has been insered in the new teams for more normal playing. The only I did not get is what ethnicity means in teams sheet in db, same country teams have different ethnicity value...
A point here: Rinaldo might have more editing options in his CM 14 in order to edit the things above.
2) The following have not been tested yet, work in progress:
Using excell I merged the first database with the updated to 10/12/2013 and got all updated till this date: teams, players, rosters without loosing any palyer!!! (Gekas, Djebbour are in the free agents, ready to be used and a lot of olayers who were not present in the new update of EA).
I added the most important european teams, not according to their fame but their presense in CL an Europa League:
1) Steaua 2) Fenerbahche, 3) Viktoria Plzen, 4) Apollon Limassol 5) Dynamo Kyiv, 6) Dinamo Zagreb 7) Omonoia 8) APOEL 9) Besiktas 10) Dnipro 11) Sherrif 12) Chornomorets 13) HNK Rijeka 14) Maccabi Haifa 15) Maccabi Tel Aviv 16) Trabzonspor 17) NK Maribor 18) Pandurii 19) PFK Ludogorets 20) Shakhter Karagandy
tip: I downloaded all these in Creation Centre of EA and inserted the data usin CM (UG Content), then edited and corrected!
I need some friends here or friendly sites to provide me skilled people to:
1) can assign Revolution mod in this patch
2) banner, flag makers, adboard makers
3) the most important: people who are skilled to manage the way that amost all or most of these team and the proper greek ones will participate in European competitions without problem in career mode.
I did not request kits because as kitmaker I cam mke them or in the worst choice I ll use generic ones.
Thanks for reading, I ll keep you informed asap
You help, you are a part of this patch!
