sorry if this has been asked before, but I sifted through the first 12 pages and that took a while (I don't think you regulars on this thread realise quite how big it's got).

Here goes...

1. What is the isDirty attribute all about in the players table (and the teams table for that matter)?

2. Is there a way to edit hidden attributes (more specifically the speed of the free kick bar and assigning skill moves using access (or anything else but as this is an access thread...))?

I just thought it was fast to be challenging but then I played a game with Real Madrid in an attempt to do learn about freestyle moves and found out it moves a LOT slower for R Carlos (I was using Leeds and I want to update things so that Harte is a recognised free kick specialist (already lowered his pace to 2))

3. Has anyone figured out captancy since page 12 (got as far as it being the highest attributed player IF default captain is taken out of the team BUT has anyone found out how to select the default captain?)

4. I used the forms download (sKIp_E's) to edit in access BUT it only works until I close access, when I load it up again I get an error message saying: "Error accessing file, network conection may have neen lost" when I try to select an item to edit. This means that I have to start from scratch if I want to change things (this wasn't a problem when we were talking 1 or 2 players but...). I have tried removing the forms and re-adding them but it won't have it (ussing access 2000).

5. Do I use too many brackets??

Phil

1. It is unknown what isdirty used to be usd for in FIFA. As far as we know, it isnt used at all in FIFA 2003.

2.Speed Kick, i believe is determined by shooting, or other attributes. Either way, it isnt hidden, but just the other attributes.

3. Nope, we think its not in the access files, and only in the dbi's.

4. Weird. I cant workout how you would get that error, unless ur using access, or the database over a network. It has nothing to do directly with my forms, and so is an error in the way they are being used, or Access is setup.

5. Not really, but can i suggest maybe using commas, or working the words in brackets into the sentences, rather than just parenthesising (correct word for round brackets ;)) the worlds after you say the sentence. :p

Hmm i love answering rhetoricals..

The players i have is 24.

now for positions i have the starting line up as there positions exact to formation 4-4-2.

now the subs are put as subsitutes but main position as whatever it is CF, Midfield etc.

PS. when looking at the teams in CC there is no mention of it.

The isDirty attribute is not used in the game at all. You can check this by changing the value and comparing the .dbi you produce each time.

Thanks for answering, but...

1. Thanks, can stop wondering now

2. I disagree, harte has shooting 10 and the bar flies round so fast that it moves about 1/5 of the bar per frame (makes hitting the green bit very hard), will try using a player with a higher overall and see if that affects it.

3. Thanks, will have to gt used to captain kewell as there is no way I can realistically put matteo's stats high enough

4. Trying maniac's editor next ;) I have a network set up with another computer, but access and the files in question are all on the same computer and shouldn't have anything to do with the network.

5. I'm very suprised you answered this one, I am a scientist and haven't got time for proper written english (explains poor grammer, spelling and excesive use of "parenthesising"). If you had seen my dad's writting, you would understand that I have no chance (he has the ability to use 3 tenses in one sentance :p ).

I hope this isn't a really stupid question:-

Maniac: I have downloaded your editor and I would like to know if and how I can import my already edited player table. Your editor works like a dream, but I don't really want to have to go through the entire Leeds squad again.

Phil

P.S. If it's not possible, can you make it possible in future versions (I expect a lot of people will be pissed off if they can't use the changes they have made in version 1.0 in version 2.0

New faces

How can I add a new player face in dplyrtex.big using EAGraph ?
How can I have a new texture not simply replacing an existing one ?

Hi Mate,
I presume that you know how to Copy & Paste:
Before opening my editor, Press and Hold down the SHIFT key untill the editor opens. There you will see the database window. Go to tables and choose i.e. Players and paste inn the Leeds info.
That is the only way.

In the version 2.0 of the Editor (which is out soon), all you have to do is update the forms, so all of your work will be saved :D

hope it helps

Just import it with BigGui!

I have a problem...

I download ECP's Access Editor...
But I can't open with Creation Center...

This Error :

Run time Error '-2147467259 (80004005)':
You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table 'Teams'.

What's my problem ?

What's my problem ?

have you read Hakeems tutorial?
download from SoccerAccess and read about kits you need five kits per team

you need to make team numbers from autonumber to number

_________________________
this is what Alex (sKIp_E) gave me and has worked like a treat
reinstall CC get the new access database and work this to the letter

Adding teams with Access:
Go Tools-Relationships.
Delte Relationships from Teams(ID) to Link_PT, Link_TC and Link_TF
Save
Open Teams table in design view.
Change ID from autonumber to number
Save
Go Tools-Relationships.
Rebuild relationships between teams(id) and link_pt(team), link_tc(team) and link_tf(team)

WHEN YOU REBUILD THESE, YOU WILL BE ASKED IF YOU wANT TO ENFORCE REFERENTIAL INTEGRITY. TICK THIS BOX! Also make sure u go from teams(id) to link_XX(team), in that order and not to link_xx(id)!!!


Ok now to add teams.
Firstly, go to the kits table, and add 5 kits. To find the numbers style, copy a team that you know has the same number and name style (this usually goes with brands, so if you're adding a Nike team, just copy it from another Nike team etc). To find colours, open the colour table.
MAKE SURE THAT FOR THE KITS YOU WANT TO USE, THE "isgeneric" tick box is NOT selected.
1st kit=home kit
2nd kit=away kit
3rd kit=Alt kit
4th Kit=GK kit
5th kit, JUST LEAVE THE ISGENERIC BOX TICKED FOR THIS KIT!

Once youve set up the teams kits.

Go to the teams table (NOT FORM!), and add a team with an ID, starting as low as u can (which should be around 1800).

Make its 1st, 2nd 3rd 4th 5th kits the 5 kits you just added.

save

Now go to the teams form, and simply add the players u want in the team!

Set the teams formations etc!

And away u go.

Make sure u add atleast 16 players (11 starting 5 subs), and no more then 32.

Open Link_TF table, and add a row/record, with ur teams ID number in the team field, and 78 in the federation field if it is a National Team, or 76 if your team is a club (it will appear in "rest of world")

Now

Download and install kit raptor and flags raptor.

Open the directory their exe's are in (easily found by right clicking on a shortcut, going properties, and then "find target")
Open Teams.ini, and add a line to the file that has:
"YOURNEWTEAMSNAME",XXXX

where XXXX is your new teams id number (NOT KIT NUMBER!)

Do the same thing to teamsfl.ini which can be found in the same folder.

Import flags, and kits using Kit Raptor and Flags Raptor. Only the kits that you unselected isgeneric for will show up in the game.

Now run the CC, file new. File save (save the BLANK package), and then install the package.

DONE!

yes that is right!

In the teams Form, you have to make 5 kits. Home, Away, Third, GK Home and GK away. Go first to the Kits Form and make those 5 kits, and add the IDs to the Teams form. Remember that at least ONE kit must be a .fsh kit, and need to be placed in the main Fifa 2003 folder.

Yeah well really you have to make the 5 kits in the kits table, not the teams form. OF course with Maniacs forms it may be the teams form, but with standard access, OR with my forms, it is just with the kits table.

Dont want to sound nitpicky, just want to stop confusion before it arises :)

LOOOL :D haha

No no, do not paste inn the entire Table, just the posts innside the Table!! And try to repair the database:
Go to Tools --> Database Utilities --> Compact and Repair Database...

That opiton will make the database smaller...
