FIFA Road to the World Cup 2014 Released

So you can set specific stadiums for each stage. Even if someone can just make the one the final is at, and use that for every game of the last stage.

Or maybe you can just rename a couple generics to the stadiums that will be used. Not ideal, but maybe a little more realistic than having each WC game at the home teams' stadiums. Unless you'd rather sacrifice realism in favor of nicer stadia? I guess it's a dilemma.

why Fidji team crashes ?

Kader you have to be specific, I don't get crashes with Fiji and below is a screen shot of me playing with them about 2 minutes ago. If you get a crashes be specific about how it happens, is it when you start the game, or during a free kick, or a sub or whatever. Your post is impossible to answer. Also if your using Reloaded version and I know alot of you are then you may have issues. I buy FIFA and use Origin and this patch was made in Origin.

The World Cup finals (32 team tournament) have their own specific stadiums, 5 specific stadiums for the group and rd of 16 stage, 2 for the semi's and FIWC stadium for the finals and all have World Cup textures in the stadiums so its completely different from the generics as you will not have any generic stadiums once you make the final 32 teams World Cup Finals. Are you playing the same patch I am because what your asking for is something that has been in the patch since the first release.

The very reason I post "long winded" descriptions :) Anyway I did take it the wrong way previous so apologies, since updates I dont see any issues.

I haven't embarked on a full tournament yet as I was holding off for updated mentioned, hate to ask a cliche' question but are they coming soon, I might fly into a tournament anyway but just wanted to check.

Well there are update 1 and 2 on page 1 of the thread. I have another db I have added some players too but I was going to fix the names for the Dude from Vietnam as well but haven't done it yet and then release with some new scoreboards and specific bench players for the default FIFA International teams so they will be wearing their specific countries sweat suits. My updates are based you guys who post. I think most of the kinks have been worked out due to reports on the thread. So far I have several people who pm me and are having no issues with crashes and even when calling 3rd players over on free kicks as Sphanlon reported. Also only 2 crash reports and that was the guy using fiji and someone earlier reported Ronaldinho but I don't think he had the update. I think if you use Origin you wont have issues but if you use the scab copy from the interest then you get what you get.

Are you using Origin? When you took the free kick what did you do, did it just crash as soon as the free kick came up or was it when you selected a different kicker or called another player over. Please be specific or I cant help you Ludae. I wonder if the few of you having issues are using a scrub copy of FIFA instead of Origin.

Thanks

Oh, I see. I guess it was just a coincidence that the games in which I took notice of the location was at the home stadium of the team I was playing with. Or was that a glitch?

When I said generic, I just meant not necessarily painstakingly modeled on real stadiums, but still including the WC textures. You might just rename name them with Brazilian names/locales. Unless you did do that and the games I played at participants home stadiums was a glitch and not supposed to happen.

Once again, if you were playing with generic stadiums without stadium textures in the World Cup finals (Final 32 team tournament) then you either didn't install the original patch before you installed the expansion or you are the first one to tell me the textures don't show because people have actually posted on this very thread about the stadium textures and they do show for everyone I talk to which is about 15 to 20 people. About home and away games I cant control that so its not a glitch. You can check the stadiums folder in your sceneassets folder and see the 2gb worth of stadium containers that hold the world cup textures. I also put specific textures in the Euro 2016 stadiums which I used the 4 French Stadiums in FIFA for that tournament. Have you ever seen the textures, sounds like you didn't play the first release of the patch as these textures are not new to this release. Your not using the compdata files in the switcher program are you? There is no glitch with Stadiums and for now on send me messages through pm because you have 2 or 3 questions every day and it just fills the thread up. Dont take this personally? Maybe your just that guy who has constant issues, I don't know but pm me from now on and if you would like I will kindly post screen shots of the stadiums with the textures showing when I get home.

hello guys and congratulations for the patch is fantastic, but I would like to ask two things, the qualifications are always the same is not possible to make them random? the second thing you can not create a tournament imaginative with all national and 204? for example with haunting random at first until you get to 32 nations? sorry for the English

There is a max teams per tournament cap placed by EA of 132 teams so I cant have 204 teams in one tournament. I actually built the tournament that way at first and it works but its bugs out and no matter which team you pick to play with it defaults to the lowest team id playing in round 1.

About qualifications, what do you mean by random, all 204 teams take place in qualification. Both RTWC tournaments include all playoffs and Intercontinental playoffs.

The UEFA/CAF Tournament also includes final stage of AFC qualification including 3 place playoff for AFC.

The CONCACAF/OFC/CONMEBOL/AFC RTWC tournament includes full qualifying for these regions plus the final 10 knockout stage for CAF and UEFA playoffs.

I tried to fit as many teams in each tournament as EA would allow me so decide which region you want to use and pick the appropriate tournament.

No matter what tournament you use the only predetermined results for teh World Cup Finals are CONCACAF and OFC when choosing the UEFA/CAF tournament. When choosing the other tournament that isn't UEFA/CAF the only predetermined teams for the World Cup finals 32 is 9 teams from UEFA and that's it.

Its the best I could do based on EA limitations but no matter what just about all teams making the World Cup final 32 will be decided real time as the tournament plays out.

I hope this didnt confuse you.

I think he's asking if there is or can be a way to scramble or randomize the pairings and groupings so it's not always according to the real life 2011-2014 schedules.

First of all, thank you very much for this fantastic patch! With the FIFA-ASIA's patch seemingly not being made this year this is the only patch that has AFC national teams and I'm really grateful that you've updated it to include them all.

Just wanted to report a scheduling mistake with the EAFF tournament though. I chose South Korea and simulated it all the way to the final tournament (S.Korea/China/Japan are in by default to the final tournament so they don't go through qualifications)... it seems that the first two games of the tournament against the qualifying winner and China are on back to back days... creating stamina issues. Would be great if that can be fixed if it's possible.

Gotcha, in this tournament each team plays every 2 days so the fixtures are already brutal for the teams but sometimes FIFA will choose a team to play the next day that just played instead of using the team that played the day before so I will look into it and get it fixed.

Thanks

Hello! Firstly congratulations for this hard work! The patch is awesome, thank you very much mate!

This is important. The UEFA groups always are the same according to the real life, I think its a bit boring play always on the same groups. Could you ramdomize the groupings?
