have tried changing team name with DBM11, and although all other edits seem to work o.k, team name just doesn`t change in game, even tried hex editing, and although it shows the change in hex editor and DBM11 if you re-load, it does not change in game, have looked in other .big files and can`t seem to find any reference to team names, anyone have any ideas on this ?

what exactly do you want?

if you want to change the name of a team, you have to change all entries that consist of the name, so in the language strings all 4 entries. In the DB table "teams" you have to change the name.

Extract the database
In FIFA 11 the database are archived in .big files. Before you can edit the databases (main or local languages) you need to extract them. Use the Menu “File\Extract from .BIG”. This operation will extract and remove the databases form the .big. After this operation FIFA 11 will start to use the database extracted and any change takes effect in the game.
File Menu
This is a very standard file menu that allows to Open, Close and Save the database, as well as Exit the program. When you select Close or Exit the program asks if you want to save the current database.
When a file is open you have on the left a list of all the tables present in the database. Selecting a table you will see on the right a data grid with all the records present in the table.
Table Menu
You can Export a table as a . TXT unicode file that can be open directly with Excel. You can also export all the tables in a single folder, creating a file for each table with the name of the table itself.
You can Import a .TXT file in the database. This makes possible to import each single table individually. You can also import all the tables present in a folder selecting Import All. In this case the name of each file present in the folder is checked and, if a table with that name is present, it is imported. Files with a name not matching a table are ignored and tables without a corresponding file are left unchanged.

you have the folder FIFA 11\Game\data\db and data\loc?
yes have the main db and the language db.
what I am saying is, have edited a few things in the main DB as you can more or less edit everything, but once I extracted the language db, any edits done on the main db don`t show in game anymore, same as having a squads file in your docs/fifa11 folder as it did in fifa10.so I maybe wrong but you need to do all your main db editing before you extract the language db.
try it and see.
