FM 2005 F.A.Q... Most of it works for FM 2006 too...

db integrity doesn't affect saved games. Of course it could be (probably is) the db integrity within that saved game

Try patching, if you haven't, and disabling your virusscanners .

 

[Scotto]

try to create new game. if it can't even create a new game. probably is your database collapse

is there no way of fixing that then

 

[rpvankasteren]

Yeah, either reinstall to get the original db, or install a data update from one of the scene groups (CM Sorted, Calcio, FMAddicts... look in the downloads thread for some).

 

[Scotto]

but there's no way of getting my saved game to work

 

[rpvankasteren]

No, not if the db is fecked.

 

[rpvankasteren]

I added a link to SortItOutSI.net to the FAQ. In fact, I stuck it all the way on top

 

[ericstarkid]

is there any guide to suggest how many divisions can be loaded on a particular machine?

 

[rpvankasteren]

No, but there is a recommendation made when selecting the leagues. However, that's based on you using the small database, and without extra detail.

 

[ericstarkid]

whats the minimum stadium capacity if a club is to be eligible to play in champions league?

 

[Tom]

TROD.

A question: does anyone here run FM on an AMD Athlon PC?

I'm a little worried cuz I heard rumours that some games are compatible with AMD Athlon CPU, and that is exactly the CPU of the new computer I'm buying...

 

[Daz]

i've got an Athlon. FM runs fine.

i've got an Athlon. FM runs fine.

Great, thanks!

Just waiting for the new machine to arrive... :chew:

 

[ngyc]

an old question:
how i change the attribute colors? perhaps the match rating color as well

 

[rpvankasteren]

http://www.sortitoutsi.net/getfile.php?action=download&id=2674

That's a tool to change the attribute colours. Only works for the player and non-player profiles, though.

"fmcolours.xml" is located in "..\football manager 2005\data\settings\"
"player profile.xml" and "non player profile.xml" are located in "..\football manager 2005\data\panels\"

 

[Zlatan]

Ruud, Maybe you should post that in the first post of the download thread aswell it's quite useful...

 

[rpvankasteren]

Mmmyeah, ok. Why not

 

[rpvankasteren]

Macclesfield (finished 17th in League Two) beat Arsenal 3-1 in the League Cup final, and Stalybridge (champions in Conference North) beat Liverpool 3-0 in the FA Cup final. Macclesfield also beat Man Utd and Bolton on their road to victory, Stalybridge also beat Man Utd, Arsenal, and Aston Villa.

FM has gone crazy!

I'm having sooooooooooooooo much problems with work permits in England!!!

I tried to sign Freddy Adu, Vyacheslav Hleb, Lebohang Mokoena, etc. but never been able to get their work permits! Although they've all played a number of international games in recent times and other people on internet forums have said they signed those players with English clubs... help please!

 

[Hopeunited]

Help? Anyone?
