Val's Road to the World Cup 2018 patch

It's because of the importance of matching real player IDs (according to the FIFA databases). Some players have commentary strings for the playernames table, but some players from the WC databases have their own player ID specific commentary as well. Also, some players may have different spelling of names between databases, so having the right ID helps with finding the commentary string for the same player in the player names.

Robbie, it's impossible to add anthems for added teams, no?

I have no idea how to do that. I've tried every single anthem filesets available - from 2014 WC, 2010 WC + 2012 EURO - and nothing works. :/

The only time I've seen anyone add any anthems is Ariel from the MWM. But instead of the FIFA ones, he's added one's that he's found himself. I have the entire album of the orchestra that FIFA/EA uses.

Robbie, I have a simple question to you: as I seen you know a little about songs and audio from EA, since years we can't add proper chants to the game due to file formats.

Do you know if there's a way to edit chant files and relinking?

Or do you think that if, for example, extract the whole chants big from f17 xbox360 version with it's proper chant links file and place it on fifa 16 or 14 folder by replacing it's complete chant big we can have all new chants and sounds in game? Do you see what I mean? not editing the chants files but replacing the whole ones by the 17 ones at once (teams and players are the same so it can work since they are both sbr files..?

If you release the patch you are the best today tommorow and every day on your life and i,m waiting the patch

I'm finishing to import all african players into the database, I would need some thing for helping:

- First, maybe someone can fix the formations, I can send the db completed with all african nts and their players (it's to have a more quicker patch release so during this time I can import the others confederations players).

- Second, can someone give a proper stadium tutorial for crowds? I plan to try with the saul silva one if it works then we'll go on with stadiums.

- Third and last, does someone knows how to convert fifa 14 faces for fifa 16? is it easy?

Well, I'm actually completing a first beta version with complete materials and updated rosters. First version includes:

UEFA : All 55 actual national teams

South America: All 10 actual national teams

Africa : Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Togo, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Mali, DR Congo, Congo rep., Uganda, Guinea Bissau, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Cape Verde Islands, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde Islands, South Africa, Gabon, Guinea. With a reduced qualifying phase.

Concacaf, AFC : around 12-16 teams for each (list not yet closed).

OFC : New Zealand and Solomon Islands.

It contains of course stadiums, graphics, adboards, and :

- Alternate reserve players from WCup 14 and maybe 10 databases.

- Various alternate classic kits (Euro 16 for all UEFA Nt's and Euro 12 too surely, as well as World Cup 2014 kits for all world added nationals).

I wanted to add proper complete euro 16 and euro 12 teams, with full qualifiers but it seems a hard work for now. Is someone interested in playing back Euro 2012 with all qualifiers and rosters from the year 2012?

As I'm finishing Concacaf and AFC I'm surely update teams list for those zones today

THANKS YOU`RE THE MAN THIS PATCH WORKS WITH FIFA 16 ORIGINAL BECAUSE I HAVE THE ORIGINAL FIFA 16 AND FIFA 17 AND I HOPE FIFA 18 ))

Yes, it works with original fifa 16 of course

I have added and fixed two new stadiums:

Brazil NT - Estadio do Maracaña
Chile NT - Estadio Nacional de Chile
Argentina NT - Estadio Monumental de Buenos Aires

Hey @valambrosio1 - All CONMEBOL national stadiums have been made for FIFA16 right, and converted by @kotiara6863 ?

@Robbie: Not all, but I have Hernando Siles from Bolivia with crowds and glares I don't have Atanasio Girardot, I know that there's a fifa 14 version but I don't have it, if I have it we can convert the crowds with FCConverter and add it without glares for now (playing on day for Colombia). I'm sure Saul Sivla will make the crowds soon for El Campin and another Colombian ground made by Luiz Fer.
for Peru, I have 2 stadiums Alejandro Villanueva and Alberto Gallardo.
But for now I'm adding only 1 stadium, alternate will come later. Is there a way to assign 2 or 3 random stadium for home games for a special teams for a special tournament? If yes it would be perfect

I plan to add World Cup 2014 final stage with specific tournament kits, ball, adboards (as classics 2014) and 12 host grounds

PREPARE TO WIN WORLD CUP 2018 WITH SOLOMON ISLAND )))

@Robbie: I wanted to add a World Cup 18 intro video and game video but I'm a noob on this, I have seen you have added a intro video for euro 16 mod, can you make a video intro or something like for World cup 2018?

CONCACAF teams list closed for beta: USA, Mexico, Canada, Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Panama, Haiti, Cuba, Curaçao, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaïca and St Vincent and Grenadines.

thinking of adding Grenada, Nicaragua, St Kitts and Nevis and Antigua Barbuda for a first round with 3 groups of 6 teams with total of 18 teams. They are ready but I don't know if accurate kits have been made for those 4 last ones...

@valambrosio1 Why do you want to add more than one stadium for a national team? I mean I think it's possible, but like everything it is always randomized for tournament group matches.

As for intro video, sure I can do it, using shawminator's tool.

This one ?

@Robbie: Yep, this one can be perfect

BTW, I have imported and fixed the 5 others concacaf teams, Grenada, St Kitts Nevis, St Vincent Grenadines, Nicaragua and Antigua Barbuda, we have then 18 teams for concacaf in the beta, first round 3 ground of 6 teams, 2 best go further to second round and final round with 1 group of 6 teams

give me 5 more african teams, I have fixed and closed 25 teams (list above) but I wanted to expand to 30 for beta, 5 groups of 6 teams

I have idea for Benin, Burundi, Rwanda, Ethiopia and Botswana maybe? Benin for sure, Rwanda and Ethiopia surely too

First post update with closed teams list for beta, only AFC and OFC teams for beta to fix then switch to graphics and compdata work

nice update now waiting for the donwload link whe you finish AFC & OFC teams for beta version thank`you man thank you i expect this patch for long time because the last patch i play was world cup 2014
