Changing textures will not effect the DB, so it's possible to still play online and keep all your squad and career files.
You even can change everything you want in the kit table of the DB (adding kits, change collar and so on)
and this will not affect anything.

I've been checking the forums for the past 2 weeks and I've finally gotten something to use when I got Rinaldo's DB Master 12. I used the Fifa 12 Textures to get the data0.big and data1.big files extracted. Then got the .xml file containing the data for the players so I can edit some old players to be a bit younger (love to play David Beckham and don't wanna see him retire yet).

The db file where I am accessing them from (where the extracted files are put) is in CProgram Files\Fifa 12\Game\data\db\.

Was able to finally edit something with the beta DBM 12 of Rinaldo but when I am saving it, I got this error message:
Access to the path 'CProgram Files\FIFA 12\Game\data\db\fifa_ng_db.db.bak' is denied


I don't know the next step how to go forward on this one being a beginner and all since I've played with the PS2 and Xbox versions of FIFA but decided to play here in the PC instead (due to aspect ratio issues in the xbox version and can't edit their ages). If only I can save the file, I think the next step would use the regenerator from Fidel. But could someone assist me in on this?

 

[LoLo17]

Try : Go to Properties fo DBM 12 an check in Compatibility ``Run as an administrator´´ apply and works!

* It is possible to extract a cup in 3d format with the texture?

*And can anybody help me? I can`t open FileMaster 12 and FIFA 12 Texture Editor.

Does anyone know how I can declare additional kits as Fourth Kit or Fifth Kit in kit selection ingame?
I opened the German language DB and copied the 3 records "3. Trikot" and changed the string ID to
kit_type_4 for example. Furthermore I calculated the hash ID with the hash calculator. Ingame it's still the
same, my added fourth kit is still declared as "3. Trikot".

does someone have an tutorial how to import kits into the game?

I thought I'd ask this too, is there a detailed tutorial on how to import Kits and boots into the game?

Since it is the How to thread?

 

[Arnautovic]

I'd also like to know how I can edit the boots and faces. It's my first FIFA for years, I don't know anything about editing here...
