What's the best way to make a competition?

I may be a little lazy about this, since I haven't actually tried anything yet, but I'm hoping someone will be able to help me out.

I'm preparing the patch for the CONCACAF 2003 Gold Cup and I need to know the best way to set up a custom tournament using FCDB XP or ECP DBI. I've only done league patches up till now.

It would be best to have 4 groups of 3 teams (a la crazy CONCACAF set up) but I'm 4 groups of 4 will work as well. I've editted one of the trophy's with oEdit, so I'd like to be able to incorporate it into the patch if possible.

Any help?

The best way is to overwrite one, and then use Enhancer to make a patch out of it, so no files are overwritten.

And about the competition structure, you will have to edit the trm files, which can only be done through hex editing. And as you already said the set up is crazy, and thus it would take quite a huge job to edit the trm files to have 4 groups of 3 teams...not impossible, but I certainly can't do it at the moment, without further research.

4 groups of 4 is easier, since you can just use CC to generate the trm files needed.
