The strange thing is that I had made some changes to your gp by going to modify the contexteffect strings, I had a physics of beautiful and realistic ball rebounds (the strings I sent you to PM), then added some other string and it ' everything vanished! Even reloading the locale with the settings before making the changes!
This thing happened to me even in fifa 16 cl, the changes to the physics of the ball takes her 1 time on 10....

I think I can relate to this issue. I recently updated to Paul's latest gameplay patch and it was all too ping pong and fast and then I removed the locale.ini file and got the previous version but the gameplay was the same. It's like FIFA have a built in mechanism that if they find any issue with the ini files, they go back to their default values loaded in the exe instead of reading the ini file.
This shouldn't happen because I don't have the issue with the config file I was using.
The config file does minimal in terms of changing anything anyway.

I did some of my own edits on your new patch. Changed some 1.1 to 1. Converting from floats/doubles to ints. I think that might have messed up. Have to uninstall the whole game now to reset whatever the engine is doing now.

You really don't have to do that. Just delete the locale.ini file and repair the game through Origin.
If you dont want to to do that. Then just delete everything in the file down to [LOCALE].

Okay so removing the file and repairing the game seems to fix it. However if I overwrite locale.ini, it doesn't fix it. Maybe when I mess up the locale.ini with wrong datatypes/vales and it can't parse it, it get's the default values. Then it does a checksum hash check to see if the file is original copy or not to use values from the ini again. That's so interesting. Now that I am using your new gameplay patch again, everything is fine.

I think this game has these problems:
1-The speed between running with ball and without ball is very different than it should be.This causes tackling very easy.
2-Defenders are so good at tackling, there isnt much difference between great defender and bad defender (cpu and user no difference, just wait a little, close the angle and press the button thats it for user)
3-Through passes are way too effective than real life football.They have to be nerfed.
4-Wing defenders are always lose their position and give the opponent much more space to create attacks.
I think "locale.ini file" editors should focus on that areas for real life football simulation if it's possible to edit of course.

Its personal preference. You should try anyone you think suits you and report back if you like a particular one and for what reason. It would help me a lot!
Just because its more recent, doesn't mean it is any better.
I can tell you now that point 4 definitely cant be "fixed" by locale.ini. The Fullback position can be changed through sliders anyway.
The defender tackling is high priority on my list. Getting nowhere so far though.

I am getting magnetic tackling and rubber-banding dribbling. So slow dribble and the defender takes the ball out of me like prime Maldini. Other than that, patch is good.

Thank you man, appreciate your work.
but would you please write an explanation for your releases so that we can understand what differences you make?

i understand that newer doesn't necessarily mean better but my question was about this issue
so what i actually meant is, is this issue fixed in your latest nightly as far as career mode is concerned or is it better to wait for another one which would work as intended in career mode

Sorry to be obnoxious but that will not happen with my nightly versions. I simply don't have the time. I usually play a few games and if it seems OK i will upload it (Please remember I am person with a job and family, so time is precious). I only share it here because I like the community. I always rely on the community to say. "This one is perfect", and at the moment, that isn't the case.
I am taking a step back in my next nightly to see what is causing many issues and getting the context values right. So my next nightly will not be the same. If you liked the version before the last nightly then use that for now. That is why I keep them all on the OneDrive.

Hey Paul, tested your nightly for 23-10, I've played 5 games on career mode and so far it's been great (no changes between games between your gameplay and the default gameplay).
I'm really liking the ball control and passing that you have incorporated in the gameplay. However I guess the only thing if there is that I would point out to be improved upon would possibly be the defending (more for the AI). I feel that they are too static, maybe because of the extra effects of inertia, thus it's really easy to get past them and score, and slightly difficult to defend against their attackers as well. But this is just a personal feedback. Other than that, the gameplay is really good. Thanks for constantly sharing!
P.S. Oops! Didn't realise you had a 24-10 uploaded. I'll go try that right now!

I have the opposite problem with 21-10. Try that if you think its easy to get past player because all defenders have magnets on their boots.
