The Football Master (Rinaldo is back)

[Rafael_Nilmar]

Hello Master, how are you?

I have 2 questions about the tournament

1 - Is it possible for me to set up 2 Groups A and B, where in phase 1 the teams from Group A play against the teams from Group A in a single round and then in phase 2 the teams from Group A play against the teams from Group B?

2 - In knockout tournaments, I discovered how to maintain what is called the "tie advantage" using the "Regular Season Rank" reference table in the "Special Tie Rule Leg 2" option, but how can I define the home field advantage? For example, the winning team of the 1 v 8 match plays against the winner of the 4 v 5 match. If team 8 beats team 1, in the next phase it should play the second leg away from home against team 4 or 5. But when I set up the "SEMI" phase and can only put the winner of 1 v 8 in G1 against the winner of 4 v 5 in G1, in a 2-legged match the order is standard. Is it possible to change it? According to the ranking?

Rinaldo, the referee badges is set by country ID or tournament ID?

I am confused, are you asking for RFS or standard FIFA 16 ? I assume you are asking for RFS.

1) the way you describe seems just a full round robin including A and B teams. Only the order of the games is different but I am sure you intended something different so, please clarify.

2) No, in RFS, home and away teams cannot be assigned following the rule you described.

Is there any explanation on how the "pots" work, and which teams would go in each?

 

[dinei]

Rinaldo, your site says this:
Matches on neutral field always use white nets

But, the RFS is creating white specificnetcolor in all matches.

Rinaldo, your site says this:

You are correct. In this version I forced the white net for all the teams with netgraphics = 0 in the DB while in the previous version I left it untouched. The previous version let the user the possibility to change the net himself while this version always uses the content of the database. Not sure what is the best honestly.

First teams are sorted following these rules:
1) Direct Access teams using the access rule order
2) Qualified teams using the classification of the previous stage

Then they are split on the different pots (according to the number of pots and teams) picking them from the ordered list. For example, 16 teams, 2 pots, the first 8 go to pot 1, the last 8 go to pot 2.

Some competitions may use team overall rank instead of the previous rules, this is built in in the code for group stages of national team competitions and UEFA cups.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks I appreciate it. I've been working on making some additional UEFA cups for teams in lower tiers, and it's really brain aching stuff, but I really appreciate this RFS, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to do it.

Thanks for your attention, my question would be editing by CM16.

Regarding question 1

That would be more or less what he explained, because here in Brazil there is a championship where there are 4 Groups, and the games are against the teams from the other groups and not against the teams from the group itself, I agree that it is confusing but that is actually how it works and I would like to know if it is possible to edit this in CM 16.

I believe that with the schedule specified as MLS uses, forcing a clash between IDs, but the big problem is that each season in the BR project the teams vary, causing confusion to happen between this type of thing. In MLS it is more possible because the teams are fixed and use a conference method... perhaps RINALDO can better clarify the possibility and the mechanism of this.

@Rinaldo (The Master) @Rafael_Nilmar and guys!

The stadium folders must be located in the RFS\Stadium.
I suggest to use Softonic Renamer for renaming files using some rules you can define.
For editing the .lnx files I recommend to use Notepad++ that can work directly on the files in a folder without opening them.
They are both free.

It would be great for you to provide to the community a repository of "RFS ready" stadiums.

Btw. specificstadium files should not be used

May I ask why? My stadium server mostly relies on specificstadium files and I don't have any issue using it with RFS.

Hi! I've been planning to make some new tournaments to be placed below the Conference League, but I've found whenever I select the "International Cup" option, it forces it to be "avoid same country" despite it not being ticked as yes in the database, is there a way to stop this?

 

[Rinaldo]

May I ask why? My stadium server mostly relies on specificstadium files and I don't have any issue using it with RFS.

My approach is to reuse the stadium with id = 225, you can continue to use specificstadium because the two methods do not conflict.

rinaldo i founded out that when i played 29 games with feyenoord, and i resign and try to find a new club i dont find any in 3 years, idk how it works when i resign, but i can beleave that within 3 years a club needs a new manager right? i am working with the last DB file but not the last RFS i use 1.11

I see it, this is a bug. Here is the workaround:
with TFM Editor edit the career file just before to resign, select table variables, change the Stability = 0 and save.

Now play and resign, you should receive some offers consistent with your previous team value.

The problem is that there is an increase of team target related to your Stability but if your stability is very high the target becomes so high that no team is able to match. I will fix in next release.

Hi, I have this errors in rfs master. Any help appreciated

This is happening for every player or kit or with specific players\kits ?

I cannot reproduce it, please give more details.

I thought it wasn´t possible at all to have the specificstadiums running with RFS. So, yeah I had missed to test first if they work.
Anyway, during my renaming process I faced many times that this texture missing thing comes back when I am using many stadiums from the past. It´s pretty annoying how many stadiums aren´t displayed correctly. I know it´s not a Problem of RFS or any other Patch. But to test how the stadiums appear in RFS Manager Mode is obviously to start new Manager Careers with the particular Teams and check in their first season home match how they look. The Stadiums which i have in my default FIFA 16 inside Data/sceneassets are mostly the ones from Nisoley and there are specific stadiums like one for Bundesliga and one for Champions League or DFB Cup. And yeah other stadiums have often the green/squared color issue like I have attached below.

Don´t think my post it´s related to renew my recently asked question of having additionally an exhibition mode in game. It´s just I can´t fix the Stadium issue for providing a pack with RFS ready Stadiums this way.
