CM10 and other Fifa Master tools - Official Thread

[Rinaldo]

Hi all,
I have a problem getting Sound Master 10 to work with the FIFA 10 PC Demo (is this because it's the demo version or a problem with SM10 itself?) The commentary files themselves load and export fine, but it can never find samples- it always comes up with an error saying the sample file cannot be found. It isn't due to the .NET version I have (I have 2.0 and 3.5 installed) or sx.exe, which works fine. This happens whenever I try to play, export or edit any sample, and I'm guessing it must be something to do with the interaction with the .hdr files that dictate where the samples are stored. This issue applies to Beta 1 and Beta 2.



(Apologies for the repeated editing- I originally posted this in the wrong thread and had to work out how to delete the post, as cross posting is usually frowned upon).

I cannot figure out exactly what is happening but it looks like if you do not have a path for the export folder. Check the options.

Yes I did check the 'QUALIFY FROM PREVIOUS SEASON'

Let me explain further.
In case of 'TM PIALA SUMBANGSIH, it should have similar tournament setting like F.A. Community Shield, except that for TM Piala Sumbangsih, the cup match are between winner of TM Piala FA and TM Piala Malaysia. By refering to DBM10, I now realised the team_lookup set up is quite different from FA Community Shield.

RTSG - - - team_id - - - move_from_rtsgt - - - move_to_rtsgt - - - qualify_from_rtsgt
THIS IS FOR FA Community shield

[2097152] - - - [-1] - - - [2097152] - - - [2097152] - - - [10585760]
[2097153] - - - [-1] - - - [2097153] - - - [2097153] - - - [3145728]

This is for TM Piala Sumbangsih - by CM10 before manual changes
[509607936] - - - [-1] - - - [511705088] - - - [509607936] - - - [511705088]
[509607937] - - - [-1] - - - [510656512] - - - [509607937] - - - [510656512]


This is for TM Piala Sumbangsih - after manual edit by DBM10 by
refering to TM FA Community Shield set up as an example.

[509607936] - - - [-1] - - - [509607936] - - - [509607936] - - - [511705088]
[509607937] - - - [-1] - - - [509607937] - - - [509607937] - - - [510656512]

Only after manual settings, it works better in the game. Hope this report will help you finding the problem.

I see the issue thanks, I hope I can fix it.

1. Is there any way to convert FIFA 09 patch to work on FIFA 10?

This is possible creating .cmp patches.

 

[Rinaldo]

I Don't have a answere on my question

You didn't give me the additional information I have required.

 

[Rinaldo]

Rinaldo, this is not a bug report but a request.

I use CMS in making tournament. So for Malaysia football scene, I can select in CMS windows, a Malaysia and click MAS-Super league and so on.
Of course, I have to change all the name to reflect the real tournament like TM Liga Super replacing MAS-Super League. I hope you can provide better way to change original CMS-provided name from CM10. All this while I use DBM10 to edit eng.db.

Why you cannot use CM10, where is the problem exactly ?

Also any tips on how to force malaysia league in tournament mode? I let myself use CMS compliance tournamentID so as you already know, all Malaysia tournament started with 48x. For example, how to force second season, like savegame or anything?

Last year, I use 93 and below as tournamentID to enable all, but this year, if possible I want to create patches complying with CMS to avoid duplication with other patches (if any)

If all the tournaments are above 96 everything should work fine in manager mode.
In order to have the tournaments visible in tournament mode you can assign the Country "Rest of World" in the tournament page.

If you instead want to see Malaysia as a country in the tournament mode of FIFA you must assign a tournament id below 95 to, at least, one of tournaments.

About my older problems with CM i think it was a problem with my game.
I have reinstalled it and now everything works better.

 

[FIFABas]

You didn't give me the additional information I have required.

Sorry, you asked me when it's happend?

I don't know. I was impoting a patch, en it doesn't work, so i tryed again, and just on that moment it was there

 

[amifla]

Hi Rinaldo, I can confirm, that, with the feature of CM10 " Remove All Long Teams Names" the problem with some coutrys and teams appearing with numbers instead the names is solved.
Thank you so much for your help. It's amazing. 12 leagues imported from 09 and all work really fine.
Thanks again Rinaldo you are the best.
Cheers.

PS: sorry for my post in spanish. I have no problem in write in english. Thanks again, and again and again.

 

[Stevi G]

What do you mean with "manually" ? Explain better, please.

No, you can't.

i mean when i try to open the db using select lan.db or select all.
Also could u plz make the AM10 compatible with 07?

And a bug reported by ajc05 for CM10:

i still cant import armbands in 128 x 128 size. PLZ HELPPPPPPP!

1 : Why you cannot use CM10, where is the problem exactly ?



2 : If all the tournaments are above 96 everything should work fine in manager mode.

If you instead want to see Malaysia as a country in the tournament mode of FIFA you must assign a tournament id below 95 to, at least, one of tournaments.

1 - Well, of course for beta testing I deliberately DO NOT use TOOLS - Remove All Long Team Names, so that I can test CM10 and contribute back with bug report.
Okay, being said that, I did change the name using CM10 at the tournament windows, INFO. It is an easy typing. However, when I play, and win the match, it says, I win MAS-Malaysia Cup, although it suppose to be TM Piala Malaysia (just an example). So using your excellent DBM10, I further investigate, and as expected, it is due to another line of tournament name still not editable in CM10.
TextId ---- string
10006162 ---- TM Piala Malaysia
10006163 ---- MAS-Malaysia Cup
10006165 ---- Malaysia

So, just to continue the test, I copy-paste the tournament name to replace 10006163 strings. So now it's okay in the game. But maybe not so significant bugs though. Do I/we need to report next time about name problem?

2 - Okay, thank you for the tips. I will do just that.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Exporting speech files works fine- two files appear of the form X.hdr and X.dat. The facility to change to export to a directory other than My Documents/SM10 doesn't appear to be functional yet (files export to the default folder regardless) but there is no problem with the export function.

It's only when I try to do anything with samples that it doesn't work. Export Sample, Play Sample and Edit Sample all return an error along the lines "Could not find file X_sampleY.wav". According to SM10 Help, the sample locations are given within the header files in relation to the .dat files- could it be failing to locate the samples from the header files correctly?

Rinaldo,

Manager Master is a really great patch that solves numerous problems. Now we can fix original version bugs, such as the changing of calendar and we don't need more play 2 matches daily.

But there's another problem in Manager Mode that constantly repeats from previous FIFA editions: low results of other matches. Too often 0-0 and 1-0 and league table looks so unreally. For example Chelsea in 13 matches has the goal difference 9-7. Maybe you know how could we fix this problem (i.e increase results of the other matches)? Any path or we could fix it in your Manager Master?

This is a bug happening when you convert a patch created for FIFA 10 (honestly I tried it only with patches from FIFA 09(. I will fix it in the next version.

It is the FIFA 10 simulator that works in this way, it is embedded in the FIFA10. exe and we cannot modify its behaviour.

Well, difficult to say. If it happens again importing a patch, let me have a link to the patch.

Mate, in order to reply I need to know what to say, I need the time to try to reproduce the problem and understand what is happening and I was not able to do it yet. If I cannot reproduce the problem I will probably need you databases.
