MCFM and FM Editor(Urgent)

[watever_23]

Hey guys,

Does anyone know when is the latest version of MCFM which is compatible with version 6.03 going to be released?

1 more question, i have been using the FM editor to edit some players. But i am getting frustrated by the fact that the stats i edited are not reflected in the game. For example, in the FM pre game editor, i edited Almunia (arsenal' gk), aerial ability and communication to 12 respectively. But when i load the game, it shows 14 for both respectively. The same applies for Tony Hibbert, i place 13 for both tackling and marking, it appeared as 16 in the game. And now, i couldnt edit as MCFM is not compatible with fm v 6.03. Any idea why is this so? Why does the stats differ when loading the game??

1: MindCompression don't ever give release dates, or even possible timespans for releases. Anything you hear of it before it is actually released is FAKE.

2: Are you loading a saved game? The FM editor only works for new games, and then still it will show a big variation in the stats you're presented with.

 

[Tom]

yeh just to get a further opinion from two mods here. You wont ever get a release date from MC, ive spoken to Shifty Aktinson (creator i think, heavily involved) numerous times on MSN, and he doesnt even like talking about it on there, nevermind go as far as to give me a release date.

As for question two, couldnt it be a problem with current/potential ability Ruud?

 

[watever_23]

hiii,

i started a new game. but i just cant get the stats i wanted. what do i do with the ability or potential??

 

[Tom]

ok, tell me exactly what the problem is. Tell me who you want to edit/create, along with their age. What attributes you WANT them to have, and what attributes its actually coming out as.

Also, in the editor what are you setting as the current/potential abilities.

 

[rpvankasteren]

Maybe, Tom, maybe. It might indeed be high current ability, their high current reputation, or their age ("experience") that makes their stats come out higher. That's just logical deduction, not factual knowledge.

Try lowering those... I'm not sure of the outcome, but it might indeed work.

 

[Tom]

see thats what i thought, i have a feeling you've (without knowing) set a very strange current ability, or something along those lines.

As far as i know, the game will alter stats if the person you have created is very young. If you put in Finishing 20 for a 15 year old im not terribly sure it will come out anywhere near that (Ruud may know).

However, i guess you're talking about it the other way. Surely a maximum current potential could raise the attribute? Personally im not convinced of my own argument, but its worth a try.

OR, you could just have got this wrong, and you actually put in 14

OR, the game may have been weird and given some stats a boost in training early, try waiting a few weeks and seeing if it goes down

I love my suggestions...

 

[watever_23]

okie i kinda get the picture.

so for example, players like Josemi and Bouma, have ratings like 17 for tackling and marking respectively, despite me putting only 14 in the pre game editor, what kind of current and potential ability should i give them? range??

what bout top young players like reyes and van persie??

and, average players like glen johnson??

 

[rpvankasteren]

I don't know. I never did edit players down, I just went ahead with what SI gave me.

Bouma's tackling at 17 sounds pretty realistic judging from his performance here in the Dutch leagues, but if you think it's too high, bring his current ability down a bit, and just see what happens.

 

[Tom]

yeah, all i can suggest is starting a new game and then opening it up in MCFM/FMM and try playing around with the current ability, see what happens.

However my advice is to do exactly what you did last time, but try setting the current ability around 20 lower than what you did, and see what happens.

 

[watever_23]

hey hasselhoff,

thanks for the input. what about the potential ability, current, home and world reputation etc?? must i edit those too??

 

[rpvankasteren]

The scientific approach would be to change one variable at a time, so you see what effect they have. Just play around with them, and see what happens.

 

[Tom]

agreed, just start a game with one league OR, attempt to edit things in-game using MCFM or FMM like i said above.

Like i say, try changing the current ability first. Then maybe the age/reputation of the player.

There has to be a reason, so go find it

Best Update!!

hey guys, i have tried playing around and there seems to be a million players which i need to edit to get a so called near to accurate stats. I guess the update patch which i downloaded from TD, have exagerated most of the stats.

does anyone have any links to any "updates" up to Jan transfer window,which provides rather accurate data. i am downloading FM britain latest update, is it any good?

does anyone have any updates to recommend? pls provide link as well

thank you.

 

[Tom]

not sure about the FM Britain update, if im being honest, ive never heard of it.

Ok theres a problem with what you want. I guess you want something that brings it upto the jan transfer deadline, but also edit stats?

If so, thats hard to do cos every update will have bias.

For a plain january transfer update, simply download the latest patch from SI themselves. The "with data" patch.

My question is, what do you want exactly?

 

[watever_23]

realistic data. eg almost 80% of players in la liga primera, have 17-20s, in majority of their stats, even players like aurelio, bilbao team, and real madrid, beckham with 6 20s...isnt this exagerratin???

 

[Tom]

so you want a patch lowering the stats of players in liga primera. Good luck finding one.

Personally, i'd make a list of all the players who annoy me. e.g. beckham or fabio aurellio in your case, and then simply edit their current/potential ability in the editor.

I'm not personally aware of a patch/update that does it for you. Sorry.

 

[watever_23]

hey hassel,

i have tried reducing Becks current and potential ability.

From 180 to 165 for both. i am still getting 20s!

my question is, how much shld i reduce his abilities to? 160?150??

 

[Tom]

try starting the game with 180. Then open FMM and put his current down to 160. See what that does.

 

[watever_23]

whats fmm??

where can i get it from?

i cant used mcfm for now, as the version is not compatible with with fm v 6.03
