How to backup fifa?

Is there a way to backup all leagues and graphics in the game with the exception of the premier league?

Here is my problem, first, after updating everything, i was stuck in the first season. So i started from scratch and updated everything all over again, but this time I only used CM08 - no patches.

Now everything seems to be working fine except for the premier league. Everytime I try to pick a premier league team to manage, the game crashes after schedualing.

Even if I pick a premier league team that has been relegated to the coca-cola championship in season 2, the game crashes.

Every other league works fine. And i can play with the premier league in kick off mode, but not manager mode. All i did was add a few faces, and replace all the kits, addboards and flags, just like i did for most other leagues.

Anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong, or how I could go about backing up the rest of the game?

It's a LOT of work to have to do everything all over again, and I might just have to start playing PES if i can't fix this issue.

I don't mind replacing everything in the premier league again, but I want to be able to re-use the rest of the game. No way I'm doing all that again.

You can safe all your stuff as a CreationMaster Patch (cmp) and there you can decide what you want save and what not

No, I have not added any players to any teams or modified anything, other than adding kits, faces, balls, addboards, and flags. And i did the same to most other leagues as well.

Even if i start a new career mode and pick any team in the premier league, the game will crash. The game starts, I pick my sponsor, schedule frindly matches, than the blue bar shows up saying "scheduling", than the newspaper comes up, and when I click advance, it crashes back to the desktop.

Like I said, this only happens to premier league teams.

I met this problem with Argentina league.

The problem was because of 2 teams were both register in 2 different league.

Example : Boca Jr was registered in Liga Argentina 1 and in Other countries league.

After delete Boca Jr from Other countries that was working.

For a specific Back up, I have no idea.

Good Luck

Yeah, but I don't think that the problem here. I did not add any extra teams.

I have updated almost every other league. I have kits, faces, ball, addboards, flags, and even fonts. I don't want to loose all that.

Is there a way to replace the premier league instead? I can create a cmp patch from the default game, but how do I go about inserting it? Do I delete all the premier league teams and tournaments first? I tried just importing it over the existing premier league and cm08 crashed.

This is driving me nuts.

Ok I made a cmp file with my premier league (only with the league infos) I can send it you for a test...

Is that Ok for U?

I don't think that you have to delete the teams, the patch is made with the info of the Barclays premier league, I am not sure that it will contain all the infos of each team....

You can chek it with the faces of the most well known players.... If U have new and great faces... That's mean that I transmitted U all the infos of my teams.

Inform me

Here is the link :

I created also a cmp file with the tounament infos for :
FA premier league
FA Cup
FA charity shield
English league cup

If it's only a problem of sheduling it might solve your problem :

Test it first.

The best I can do, not sure at all that it will work, but It won't be worth

Thanks for the efford, but that didn't help. Going to try and create cmp files for all the other stuff except for the premier league and reainstall the game and than apply all the cmp patches for the other leagues.

Tried the original dbs - no luck.

So i did a new install. I've imported all the kits for the premier league manually and it's working. I've also imported a lot of the cmps I created. So far I've imported all my addboards, balls and fonts and the complete leagues for Australia, Germany, France, and Portugal and everything is fine so far. For some reason the german teams did not pick up the right fonts but that's easy to fix.

Have a few more cmp files to import from my previous game and than I have to import all the faces again.

But this time i'm backing up the game as I go. Going to keep my fingers crossed.
