Paulv2k4 FIFA18 Career Mod

No doubt it is out of date due to a FIFA Update. I am unable to work on this at the moment, so you will need to do this manually yourself for now. Sorry about that.

@omair . Turns out I was wrong and it does work with the latest version. It must be a fault with your installation? Are you using CGFE or other mods at the same time? That will likely be the cause.

I cannot do that, it is up to the good people of FIP to request for my mod to be included in their own patch for it to work (which is unlikely). This is because both mods change the same section of FIFA.

I originally tried in Frosty Editor with no other edits

I then tried with Frosty Mod Manager with no success. Only things I had there were kit edits. I will try with those disabled.

EDIT: Same result. Grabbed the ModManager version from first post, loaded and launched game, ~10 seconds and it crashed out as with all other attempts.

Well. I have used an older Mod Manager because it works for me, the newest Frosty Mod Manager breaks the mod just like you explained. Do ANY other Frosty mods work? Have you tried a clean install of FIFA?

Paul says it works so it's obviously an issue with your modded install. Delete your current main FIFA 18 files and reinstall your clean original backup copy. Fixed.

Or download from Origin again. Fixed. I had to do that 5 days ago, fixed things completely, no issues now.

So far, the other mods that I've tried work, including another career mode mod, though that's not saying much since it's only a handful of mods. Have reinstalled FIFA multiple times and used a clean backup. Am even on a clean install of Windows, which you had considered doing with your laptop before ha (not related, had to reinstall Windows for another reason). Will try an older version of ModManager. Any version in specific? I think you mentioned you use 1.3.1, I'll grab that one and try.

Thanks guy. Paul says it worked therefore there's absolutely no other thing it can be, right? Obviously.

Oh, you're right, it never occurred to me try a clean install of FIFA, obviously.

I get that it's probably an issue with my install. That's why I'm asking for help. Because I want to use this mod and haven't gotten it to work, so am talking in an appropriate place to try and identify what I could've done differently that resulted in issues where others don't have it.

Using 1.0.3.1 has worked for me, mod now loads up perfectly fine. Thanks @paulv2k4 !!

Great mod bro!
Is it possible to load a certain mod through CGFE and to run your mod through the frosty mod manager? i mean, both of them together?

thanks!

sorry but as far as i know you cant run them both at once. you can always download the source from github and put them in yourself.

Paul, in your research, what do you think influences most the different growth of players?
I want to point out that young players, scouted or regenerated grow in wildly different ways. One grows 7 points per season and other just one.
I did all sorts of tweaks in playergrowth.ini but something is missing.
Also, there is no slowing down in growth once a player aproaches it's potential, it just grows the same rate to the end.

Sorry for the late reply.

I haven't put much effort into player growth other than stop players from out growing their potential.

BUT.

reading the ini, it suggests 2 things.

1) the BELOW_CURVE_MIN_RATIO could be tweaked so it grows much slower toward the end, i.e. putting this value 0.01, should decreased it to almost impossible to grow in the last stages

2) the RATIO_{Number} dependant on age for GK (as an example) jumps from 0.94 to 1.0! If you read the text comment above, it suggests that the "1" pretty much overgrows the player. So perhaps dropping it back to 0.97,0.99 may do the trick towards the end of its growth.

Hope that helps.

Ratio does not have any real effect on it's own, i'll test the below curve min ratio and return with an answer.

how I will know if this mod is working fine?
