Does anyone know how to extract the Compid file for editing.

Use File Master 12, its in data.1

Thanks for the reply JS. I know that you have made patches in the past, so could you tell me what should be the max & min settings for the following

24 Teams League Playing Twice
Based on 12 Matches per Week = 46 Weeks Total

22 Team League Playing Twice
Based on 11 Matches per Week = 42 weeks Total

I need this information to modify the schedule text file in Compdata.

Thanks
Barrie

I sent you a pm, let me know if that doesnt help. Be careful with schedules and try to use a format that is in the default schedule table. Schedules can crash your game faster than anything.

Can anyone upload the original compdata files I have never managed to run File Master 12 on my computer. Other BIG extractors are making unreadable text files.

I have these files in FIFA12 but don’t really understand it because there are only numbers. I have made some excel tools with macros to transfer players and recently teams from FIFA12 to FIFA 13 and wondering if I could make some tool that will make it easier to create tournaments. Unfortunately I don’t know what is what in these files. I have been searching for explanations for a very long time (spent days and days) but no luck. If someone can write a short explanation and upload the extracted original compdata files I would take it from there and attempt to make a useful tool.

UPDATE:
I have figured out that I need an empty FIFA12 folder in CProgram Files (x86)\EA Sports not in CProgram Files\EA Sports for File Master 12 and exported the files.
