[Qba]

When will you release the latest version of this mod? Thanks.

Everyone seems to be impatient. I will try to release the updated squads tomorrow. The final version is still some days away.

We're not impatient We just love the current patch, but we haven't been able to download any updates since the start of this thread. Dw, take your time, you're doing a great job.

Ok, cool. I understand. It's not a big issue. I will try to post some screens soon. I am trying to convert the FIFA 14 menus as well. They're ok but not perfected just yet.

Rique, I've managed to get fifa world from Origin (didn't notice the post by Dof20 before lol) and after testing my theory about the files I can confirm that that little bug with the heads is fixed. If you have Fifa world already I believe that putting the files from the "body" folder on your patch files will solve that bug. I tested it on fifa 13 first using the kits from world as well (obviously then don't look good cause the containers are half the size of the regular fifa ones so the kit textures look bad, but they're not needed. using the contents of the body folder from fifa world does the job.
Sorry for the late answer but I've had some trouble with my computer (courtesy of windows updates) so I've just began to pick up where I left off but that player heads bug turned out to be easier to solve than I originaly thought, thankfully

Great news. This makes things a hell of a lot easier. Thank you very much, mate.

No problem, mate.
Thank you for sharing the files in the first place
The updated db from World could prove pretty useful, considering that it's fifa 14 updated db created on 13 format by EA themselves

Wow. I had forgotten that aspect. Thanks for the heads up. I have updated all squads up to the latest FIFA 14 squad (I've converted all the tables) to FIFA 13. I'm working on the FIFA 14 squad file released on the 21st.

when you say fix it do you mean that the updated head models now have mouth movements like a normal fifa 13 head model?

I don't think so Dof. It just means the scale between the body model and the head s now match.

I haven't paid much attention but as far as I'm aware the 3d models from Fifa World are the same ones used on Fifa 13, what happens is that the 3d containers have different sizes(Fifa World containers are half the size of regular fifa ones) so when you use just the heads and faces with a Fifa 13 or 12 model, mainly on the newer faces (the ones scanned for fifa 14 and the ones the were remodeled from fifa 13 for fifa 14 had that problem on the left side of the collar)
On the player edit window all you can see is that players have eye movement (the models on 12 are the same except they don't have movement in the player edit view) I guess those movements have to do with some strings on the lua files where you can see that there's code related to animation morph targets. I assume that was how Ariel from Moddingway managed to convert the 13 heads to 14 by removing the morphs and adding a bump file to provide correct uv mapping on the heads

Ok, cool. I don't understand the UV mapping issue exactly. Also, I am just going to try and release the .db tonight and finish the other things in parts. Then hopefully release the entire thing ext wednesday (more teams etc. Also, the Rtwc 2016 will be done with a tournament only version which will inclue WC2014 as well. I have exported the .3ds files for the FIFA 14 stadiums, so I am planning on updating Anfield, Allianz Arena etc as well as adding Donbass Arena in further uopdates. Can you help me in getting the .3ds files into the FIFA 13 stadium containers? There are a lot of parts from the FIFA 14 stadiums to add to the FIFA 13 containers.

Unfortunately I haven't used arianos' tool on the stadium side and I never knew how to use sw12 so I'm affraid I won't be able to help you on that :/

It's cool. $ido usually helps but I'm sure he's bombarded with novices like me asking him questions about stadiums. It's all good.

It would be nice if we could extract the strings from the fifa 14 .exe that validate the League Id's and insert those on the 13 executable. It would be minus one issue to cause any possible crash or instability. I believe beta990 (I guess that's the user's name) extracted the strings from the executable using PHP. Maybe he could have a look at that or give some pointers

That would be great. We'll see what possibilities exist.
