i had sent you a pm the other day, did you receive it ?
by applying the fm ratings do you see a significant change in play between fm ratings and fifa ratings ?
i've answered now because before i've read with my phone.
About the difference, there is some difference and i'm explaining how they work.
1) Football manager ratings goes 1-20 instead of FIFA that goes 1-99. So approx. to convert from FM to FIFA we have to multiply * 5.
2) Football manager ratings are well distributed between the stats instead of FIFA ones. They don't fear to put high values of physical stats on lower league players.
3)If we convert roughtly the stats in FIFA we have strange overall, example CR7 to 73, etc etc, and that will riun your career mode. So I have to adapt it to the overall calculated from Current Ability stat in Football Manager that indicated how much is good the player. So i have to level it to reach that new overall.
4)As i've told the variance between attributes in players gave the way the play in FIFA. So if we put high finishing and low dribbling the player will try to score instead to dribble.
5) I've done some optimization in formations and team styles to make the players overall more effective than team styles.
6) The player overall make more difference. A Serie A player in FIFA goes from 70 to 80 in majority of cases, now the have a range from 55-60 to 80, and that difference of ability is clear when you play.
