changing fifa 23 calendar start date

Can you please share how can I change the start year in career mode
Yes bro, first you open the FIFA editor tool, and then you click "Legacy explorer",

Then you go through dlc, and find a file called cmsettings, it locates as attach picture.

you can find the line named "CALSTART_YEAR", then you can change the year, after you change you can explorer the file as mod, and when you import it at FIFA MOD manager, it will work at career mod.

Hi Bro, Now my laptop have some problems, I need to transfer data from it and fix the hard disk, therefore I can't open the laptop now. I think it will takes at least 2 weeks.

However, Maybe I still can guess some reasons, just guess. I never change the year to 2018 before, I think maybe, just maybe because all players at the original game is all over 17. And now we can know is all player in the formal team can't under 16 years old, So When I change the year from 2022 to 2021 in FIFA 23, it is ok, I think it is because for example, Gavi, he's 17 years old at the first season in the game, after change, he's still not younger than 16. But when you change to 2018, maybe so many players become 13 years old, and system get crush.

That's just my forecast, I need to check later when my laptop is fix. But you can try in the way in the first paragraph.

tell me, I'm changing year, but I want to change another month to July or June, since most league games start in August, how can I change this на jule?
 
I indicated a different day and month, but nothing has changed in the game, for some reason the matches continue to start in August. July is just empty

You also need to change the settings.txt file as well, see below....
You can change to any start year and any month...
what i have highlighted is the calendar start date and month in career mode...
however, depending on what year you want to start on you will have to change the year settings on the world cup, euros, copa america etc...

oh! God, I don't come up with this before, thanks too much bro.

But I still have a question, like if you change that year from 2022 to 2019 or even 2015, that many players will under 16 years old and even under 14 years old, this will not cause the crash or other problems? Or the start year need to make sure all the players above 16 years old?

it doesnt make a difference how old the players are the game doesn't put thresholds to player ages.. if you change the settings.txt and cmsettings.txt files correctly your career wont crash...
the only issue you might face is if you go back further than 2008.
 
Full tutorial: How to change career start date in every fifa game
I have attached pictures below for reference (xxxx references year start date... put whatever you want) As you can see i started my career in 2017, everything working correctly, I simulated till January , no crashes...

1.) Firstly you must change the cmsettings.txt file line ''CALSTART_YEAR = xxxx''

2.) Secondly you must change the compdata settings.txt file line
''0,schedule_year_start,xxxx''

3.) Thirdly you must change the careermode_closedbeta settings.txt file line
''0,schedule_year_start,xxxx''

Also you need to change competition start date accordingly ie. world cup, euros, copa america, etccc. (see below where to find)

If you need anything else let me know...
