@tokke001 you continue revolutionising FIFA modding for years now. Thank you so much for your dedication to overcome the modding boundaries one after an other.

There is still one thing that almost remains a no man's land in FIFA pre FIFA20. It is the gameplay files. The attribdb.BIN, the attribdb.vlt and the gameplayattribdb.big.
I don't know if their encryption format is the same, but if it is the case, it would be terrific if you could once have a look at those files. It would be a fantastic door open to mod even furthers those incredible games.

The bcgameplay.dat camera file would also be modding direction of interest for many I am sure.

Im wondering if ultimate stage stadium is achievable now

Im wondering if ultimate stage stadium is achievable now

that would be absolutely amazing

Im wondering if ultimate stage stadium is achievable now

That doesn’t change, the limit is still the same. But there is a better, smaller, version of Ultimate for PES21 that I think it’s possible

What limit there is?

 

[SimIT!]

Around 65 thousand seats, more it crashes on FIFA16

U tested that with a crowd file exported from this tool?

Because crowds exported from blender have indeed a 65.000 limit :
That s because the blender script is wrong , saying the number of seats is stored as ushort


This tool saves the number of seats as an uinteger value :
The limit of the file is then 4.294.967.295 seats
-> that should be correct, according to ea s info
but ingame it may be a lower limit...

U can find info of the crowdplacement file structures :
Here

It shows also some info about the meaning of values

I will test, I don’t think it will work, because even stadiums from EA like Wembley and Camp nou that has more than 65k in reality, in the game they have less the 65. Blender let you export more than 65k seats, but it crashes in game.
