Hi guys, I'm a newbie whose been trying to figure all this editing stuff out on my own, but I've finally hit a wall. Actually, I think I've figured it out, but I wanted to clarify it with more experienced people before I go messing with my zdata files.
I'm trying to reduce my fifa.fat file after making a lot of changes (borrowing somebody else's fifa.db file and then adding an mls update, as well as a couple of stadiums). From searching these forums, it seems that the common solution is to copy the .fsh files for logos, banners, and adboards into the main folder (it seems all my GK kits are already at 1gk b/c of the borrowed db).
I'm new to handling files like this, and I have Filepro 07 downloaded, but I just wanted to clarify that I'm dragging and dropping everything that says "banner" or "adboard" from inside each zdata folder and over into the main FIFA 07 folder at the top of the tree on the left...correct? Or not? Do I need to compress anything, or do all those loose files just drop into the main FIFA 07 file? And then I just leave the zdata file with whatever else was in it in the first place, minus the banners, adboards, etc.?
In addition, it seems like I haven't really done a lot considering the massive amount of cmp files available online, yet my fifa.fat folder is already over the limit. Am I missing something? How does everyone import all those stadiums and stay under the limit? Do you basically have to choose between stadiums and leagues, or is there a trick?
If anyone could help me out, I'd appreciate it. I played FIFA 07 on the Xbox for the longest time, even though I had it for PC as well. The other day I just decided to see if there were any patches out for the game, and I stumbled upon this site, which blew me away. I really appreciate the work everybody puts into this site.
Thanks,
Nathan
