FIFA 08 + EURO 2008 Conversion to Fifa 12 [WIP]

[MadbaLL]

I mean, I don’t think FIFA 14 it’s a bad game, but I also don’t understand why FIFA 12 and 13 didn’t get as modding support from the community as FIFA 14 did for some reason

to be completely honest, for me fifa 14 pc version is a bad game.

almost no fouls, some wierd and broken animations and collisions, it's hard to make precise sliding tackle on opponent's player... i could continue with this.

on pc, fifa 11, 12, 13 and 15 are better games, gameplay wise. even to me, fifa 07 and fifa 10 pc versions are better gameplay wise than 14.

speaking of 14, when i discovered cp14 mod, my first post years ago was why did they choose one of the worst fifa games on pc for such an amazing mod...

simply because there are no easy to do programs like Creation Master or others, while CM 14 is there as well as 11. When you see that even with tools like this nowadays people can not do anything except stealing or selling other work, you understand clearly why nobody of them can edit fifa 12 game

I understand that there may not be as many modding tools as FIFA 14 (it’s clearly the game with most modding ever), but I “complain” that FIFA 12-13 got worse modding tools and everything was released for FIFA 14 with no support for previous fifas (updated creation master, blender plugin…), for example, Creation Master 12 didn’t get a full version, only betas, and you can see that as tournament editing wasn’t available and nowadays still unavailable, even when CM11 got tournament editing, and CM13 was just CM12 but updated to have support for fifa 13, also no full release and it lacked some workaround, and then in Fifa 14 came the big update and later CM 15 including also Fifa 14 support when FIFA 14 and 15 have different engines. What we need for modding community is an universal tool for modding (Creation Master) that support every fifa possible (Fifa 11 and above, I don’t think old fifas than 11 are worth to work with), so we can do literally whatever we want in every game with no lack of new features, but this is more a dream than a possible thing. Besides that, I completely understand your point and I’m happy to hear any opinion

Explain a little what have you done and what makes your game crash. For example it was my xml from db file that made my game crash

I'm curious about 'formupdate' I tried to change everything. But I don't know what should i have to consider in that area!

I think it's for career mode because it states how the player is performing, but I'm not 100% sure

Hello everyone

Do you have any updates about this project?

Hello everyone

Do you have any updates about this project?

Hey, sorry for taking so long to answer, I was just inactive. Currently, the mod is playable, but it's not finished for various reasons:

First, I don't currently have the kits that match the new overlay introduced in Fifa 11.

Secondly, I was also having issues with faces and neck clashing

And finally, I had a big problem with DB:
In previous states of the mod, I noticed that some players had wrong names. Reason? Some problem with DB Master, because all the tables were properly converted, however, in the case of the names, for some strange reason, some players had their name id wrong by +1. Not all players, just some of them (but a few importants were wrong like Messi), but it was very random.
This was fixed exporting this wrong generated table by DBM and fixing it in Excel. But that's not all. Playing games with random teams lead me to another problem with db. Some players had their arms texture missing (noticed this on some black players like makelele), and this was againg a problem with ids being randomly changed by +1.

For me this is a big problem, because you will randomly find players with wrong graphics, and I can't be sure that this id problems also affects other aspects of the game/players (like players with wrong boots or wrong stats on something)

Also I would like to ask for 3 things:
1- is there any tool related with stadiums? there are a lot for Fifa 14 and it will be so great to add a lot of these to fifa 12, but I'm currently unaware if this is possible
2- is there any way to edit commentary files and add more lines? I ask this because, taking Ronaldo Nazario as example, has no commentary at all in Fifa 12, and playing PS3 Fifa 11 (the last fifa were he player football), I found out that he has commentary (at least in spanish), so it will be great to take lines from this game or even from fifa 08, were I also found out that he has a lot of lines on this game
3- is there any way to edit the soundtrack? I know you can add your own songs, but I think is better if you don't have to download and add song to your windows media player playlist for this

Not only the names. I’ve found players with invisible boots (when all boots are converted), invisible faces (when all faces are converted), arms with missing textures… And again, everything is properly converted, but dbm randomly does these things and when you export the tables, you find errors that shouldn’t be there. I wish there were a fixed version of dbm for not taking care of these things

FIFA 12 for me is the "PES 6" of the franchise, it has perfect gameplay, especially for multiplayer. Far from being a simulator like FIFA 14 and PES 14, but a balance. So much so that if GOALS could recreate that same gameplay, it would be very successful.

The 2000s seasons were the decade with the most beautiful uniforms, even though I was a fan of the 60s/70s. 2002/2003 to 2007/2008 was insane, with 2006 being the peak.

I completely agree with you. Fifa 12 isn't perfect at all, but in terms of gameplay, I think it is one of the best games ever made. If wish we could edit animations and gameplay with any kind of tool so we could add features from next games, but it is and it will be something impossible to do xD

I think it's really cool that you brought an entire season from the 2000s to the game, I don't like the uniforms or the players from the 2010s (at least the ones from the first division, only the ones from the second)

Hi bro

I saw your comment at https://soccergaming.com/index.php?threads/bit-ultimate-career-mode-2006-2016.6472598/ (I am looking for the full release of that mod too ). Do you want to continue with this project?

I am a big fan of FIFA 12 and played original career mode so many times with so many teams and leagues and it's not so funny nowadays because I used all players and know exactly which player will be a star. I would realy enjoy to play the same career mode with the gold era (2007/2008).

Yeah, I wanna continue this project. The main problem is on the kits. I would like to take the converted kits from this guy, but he doesn’t release the mod neither the script to convert kits from old to new layout, so the options are:
1 - use old body models (not a real option as it looks very bad because of scaling that the game does for the different body types)
2 - create the kits from 0, which is a pain in the ass for me and I don’t find it a real option

other than that the mod has a good progress, just needed to fix some db errors that leads to some crashes
