Do I save in this the editor data thing?

Do I save in this the editor data thing?

Yes.

I'm going to name my team Croydon FC. I was reading about they're quite large and technically no team exists in the city limits but Crystal Palace is within the borough. Besides, the London area could always use another team.

Where do I put the file for the logo?

I searched up a list of defunct teams in England and went with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Castle_Swifts_F.C.

It goes in the graphics folder, but then you have to edit the config file. The logo has to be in PNG format. I have all that, and edited the config file, but something isn't working because the logo isn't showing.

And of course the SI forum is down.

Well, I'll edit it later but this is the logo

We play out of the same pitch as West Ham.

Still in the process of getting my team together. Still need to get an attacking mid, a left winger, and a keeper. I do basically have my defense set though which is nice.

I'm playing a friendly right now but it feels weird because my team is only half way done.

Apparently the unique ID in the editor and the unique ID in game for clubs don't match. It's a bug and apparently why my logo isn't showing. I'll just have to adjust the config file to match. Haven't tried it yet, but apparently it works.

I noticed that as well but it still didn't work. Must not be doing something right, but I named the image the same as the unique id .png and put it into the same folder as my other in game logos.

Update on my team: I spent very little on my squad and decided to splash out on two big name stars. So far I got Ashley Young for $10 mil up front and $30 mil over 48 months. Still looking for another AM. Two games into the season and we got our asses kicked by Tottenham away 6-0 and beat Wolves 1-0 at home. Playing our first game with Young against Everton at home and it's 0-0 at half. I'll post up my full squad when I feel like it's complete.

ok so since i can't buy FIFA for another week i need a soccer fix so i decided to re-install this since last time i tried to update to 10.3 or whatever it is it didn't work.... so would someone wanna give me some directions on how to do this so it works? i'd appreciate it

Go to preferences and select the box that says show unique ids. Then click on the team and use that ID. The idea that shows up on the homepage of the game is your manager's ID.

Bingo. That's the ID I used. I'll change it and see.

Still didn't work. Blast!

Here is my starting eleven. Diarra will likely be starting but he had an injury and isn't ready yet. I think Cahill might be the piece that makes it all come together for me. Really pumped I got Di Maria and Otamendi as they're both future stars.



And everybody I bought plus Tim Cahill whose off screen I got for 14 million pounds. Didn't feel like taking another just to show him. He was my last purchase and actually signed after my first game.

[mgoblue2290]

How much did you wind up spending?

82 million pounds.

Alright, felt like my first save before I edited the team was better than my second team so I restarted again and set the start back a month and I'm liking this team a lot better.

Its going to be really weird after the first year when you will likely get another huge budget. Probably have a high rate of turn over on my guys.
