So have you noticed any problems in the game? Nothing here, but the strange thing is that some transfers weren't added even 'though it was released after the deadlines of the markets were over. Otherwise it is just perfect, there's nothing that I'd want them to add, it covers everything, every point of the game.

Please post here all the problems you've got with the game so we can have them all organised in one topic. Thanks .

EA had said that they had not added all the transfers and had said to use the editor...that's the reason they released so early. I don't think this really is much of a problem cuz of the editor.

Editing a savefile?

Is there anyway to edit a Fifa Manager save file? I mean editing a match result, players rating and statistics after the match.
Thanks

Nope.

Stop trying to cheat

Check the FM 2006 forum, you'll see he's not trying to cheat.

Too much hassle, I like my assumptions

I just installed the game, and when I run it, it keeps exiting out to the desktop every few seconds. It's getting on my nerves now. Can I force it to run in Windowed mode? I couldn't see any option in the user INI file.

This is a fresh, full install on this machine: Athlon 64 3000+, nVidia 6600GT, 1gb (2x512mb) PC3200 RAM, Seagate 160gb Hard Drive, Gigabyte K8NF-9 nF4 motherboard. I was looking at the spec requirements and it doesn't mention the 6600-series being supported (it only says FX, 6800) but I assume that because the card is based on the same core it would support it.

I'm running the Forceware 71.89's at the moment, I'll download the new 81.85's tomorrow and give them a try. Meant to boost the old FPS' in games too, I'll force myself to play some UT2004 too.

Problems ey...
Too much sliding around in 3D mode, even on light tackeling.
The freaking players just run full tilt out of bounds about 20 times a match!! so annoying as often its when they are on the fast break and are near the byline.
Its pretty good all up tho.
I really wish they had just waited and used the FIFA 06 engine tho, not a modified 05 one...

Fixed my problem: in the target bit of the shortcut, put "-windowed" (without the quotations) at the end. For example, mine is ""CProgram Files\EA SPORTS\FIFA Manager 06\FIFAM06.EXE" -windowed".

Can you not put "-r1200" or something along those lines to force it into a certain resolution?

new kits

does anyone know how to import new kits into fifa manager 06.
i have tried a way using ea graph but whe i try and watch a 3d game it crashes back to the desktop

 

[Oz_Leeds_Fan]

there is no way as yet. Waiting for a compatible kit raptor.

Sometimes the game exits when I try to make a sub. For example, yesterday it crashed when I tried to make the first substitution of the match, but today it happened when I wanted to make the third. I hate it when it happens, I was leading Bayern Munchen by 3 goals this time .

 

[Stotty]

I've noticed that the game is poor.

 

[proxnet]

@ se7en:For problems with the substitutions does it crash when u make subs in 3d mode?? if yes then how much RAM do you have?
otherwise try using text mode cuz when it crashes it indicates that your RAM is not capable of handling much memory while subbing which is why the game shuts before and **** happends to ur module

 

[theo]

It crashes in the 3D mode, and I've got 512MB of RAM.

 

[proxnet]

i guess try text-mode then there must be 2 much load on ur RAM because of excess memory. Trying closing all other progs. before playing the game.

That makes no sense at all. Plus, if you don't have enough, Windows will page to the Hard Drive, so there'll be a slowdown in performance (bandwidth to the hard drive is far slower than to RAM) but no problems.

The CL bug is still there - I played 2 matches at the same time, CL 3rd round qualifier and a premiership match. Why can't EA get rid of it, its been there since TCM2003

 

[theo]

The worst thing is at the end of the season, when you must play the Coppa Italia final and all of your starting players are on international duty, at the World Cup. Now that sucks!
