Nearly time to say goodbye to the outside world again then.
I am currently slaving over a hot Photoshop to get the new style logos for the demo/game done - and will be available on FM Formation.
eL Clubs already done btw.
ok so the demo is out sunday...when can we expect the game?... you can play a half season un-restricted with the demo??.....
AFAIK yes you can.
I'm hoping there wi ll be an eL Quickstart with the demo
The release date for the game is around Nov / Dec
Just england and scotland AFAIKQuote:

Have to say i like it. Skin looks well. Bit bright but overall good. Scout and coaching reports are excellent.
I'm currently making up the club and comp logo packs for this in the new sizes.
Will post links later on when the place I work on sorts the sections out
lads - all my logo stuff is now found at the link below - including an eL Clubs logo pack:

Sorry if this is a stupid question but is it easy enough to import them into the game? :)Quote:

Looking forward to taking over Dundalk on Friday, and Ireland, picking a squad of domestic players, maybe with the inclusion of Dunne and Given ;)
Just been looking at the League in-game tonight (got the full version today)
It's an absolute total mess - worse than the debacle we had with the game last year:
Most clubs:
Colours and kit styles are wrong for most clubs - seem to have just taken the stuff from two season's ago and not bothered looking to update.
Fully up to date kits for this season are on this site: http://www.colours-of-football.com/c...irl/irl05.html
Bohemians:
No sign of the move to a new stadium at Harristown (the stadium is present in the db - but no move is set up for it.
Wage budget and transfer funds are the same as they were in the 07 version - despite the club signing a massive cash deal to sell off Dalymount
Staff changes have not been made - it should be as follows:
Chairman/President: Gerry Cuffe
Director: Gerry Conway
Asst Manager: Alan Caffrey
Fitness Coach: John Daffy
GK Coach: Gary Matthews
Physio: Javier de Castro
U-21 Manager: Richard Sutherland
You can remove: Felim O'Reilly, Pat Cleary, Kevin Coll, Jimmy Jackson, Stefano Manassero and Tony Lawlor - 95% of these staff left the club mid way through March 2007
Mike McGinley spelt incorrectly - it should be Michael McGinlay (he's the son of Bolton legend John McGinlay
Setanta Sports Cup
Entered clubs for the first season (Drogheda, UCD, Derry and Shelbourne) are incorrect - it should be St Patrick's Athletic, Derry City, Drogheda United and Cork City
Continental Competition
All clubs in the Setanta Cup are showing that as their "Continental Competition" in the Information screen - Cork City are showing as "none" when they should be in the UEFA Cup
Bohemians
Training facilities should be set to excellent - as they train out of the DCU complex - which is some of the best facilities in northwest Europe
UCD
Their move to the Belfield Bowl stadium (which is happening at the end of this season) - isn't set up to happen in game
Athlone Town
Athlone are still playing in St Mel's Park, despite moving to a new stadium at Lissywollen in March this year
Limerick 37
Home stadium is incorrect - they play at Jackman Park, not Hogan Park
Wexford Youths
Wexford Youths appear to be playing nowhere at all in-game, stadium is down as "Unknown" when they really play at the Wexford Football Complex in Newcastle
Training Facilities are down as "Basic" - when they have some of the best in the country
They only have a 10 player squad - despite there being a full sqaud playing in real life in the League
==========================================
Seriously guys - we had major problems like this last year, looking at this year's effort it looks like we've gone even further backwards...
Likewise with UCD.Quote:

I've been approached by one of the guys at SI to let them know what needs correcting - and it'll be sorted for the next patch.
Few things wrong with the harps team. Our away kit on the game is white and it is yellow with a black trim in real life. We are missing two players, sean roddy and marc brolly and we have two players in the team i have never even heard of (Shane O'Connor and Jonathan Gallagher). David Bell is in the team and he left us after last season and is with stute. And we are moving to a new stadium but there doesn't seem to be any mention of it in the game. Also our chairman is now John Campbell and not Sean Quinn. Dissapointing. Marty McCann is in it as a player/assistant manager and he doesn't even play anymore. Sean McGowan is a centre midfield player now and not a right back.
Also i've been trying to get the logos and all in the game but i can't seem to get them in. Any help??
HTID - can you let me know of the relevant details of the players not in the squad (position, dob, etc.) - and also the two players who shouldn't be in the squad
James Lee-Matthews has left UCD and Greg Bolger is a centre mid. I'll send you on full details of squad/staff later on.
Missing PlayersQuote:

Neil Lloyd, Right Midfield, or Centre Midfield, DOB 19/07/79, not sure exactly where he is from, think Letterkenny.
Two players that shouldn't be in the squad are;
Shane O'Connor and Jonathan Gallagher
David Bell is at Institute and not Finn Harps aswell and Marty McCann is just assistant manager and not a player.
Any help with importing the logos into the game? I can't seem to get them in. :mad:
Oh and another thing that i just noticed are alot of the games start at 3pm on saturdays.
If you can post the Rovers info I will help with that.
are stadium shows up as 3,500.... also are attendence figures are way down set to min of 700 and usually 900(or sumin there abouts)..... are rep IMO is too low at 2,000 compared to waterfords etc.. at 2500... sligo too are set too 2000 when they should be nearer to 3000
Here you go:Quote:

Add individual folders for logos\players\kits for easy navigation.
when in game, go to preferences, and select "always reload skin on confirm"
deselect "use skin cache"
That should do it!
Pats have no under 21 squad, not one single player :confused:
kdjac
I'm assuming where it has Shamrock Rovers U-18's, that is where the U-21 team should be??? Or is there an actual reserve team?
Dont think any of the Irish teams have an u-21 team because harps don't have one either.
Why has the game come out so assways? Did they not ask someone or even several people to supply them with the information as Reiteoir is now being asked to do after its release?:confused: UCD automatically in the Sentanta Cup.:o
usual sh*t out of date stuff again :rolleyes:
Dundalk missing a few young players who are on the fringes of the first team, Mulvenna, McKevitt. Thomas McGauley still at Monaghan. Shaun Williams not with Dundalk, and is a central defender?
And Athlone still at St. Mels!
So...
Goalkeeper Donal Greene is a 26 year old in it. His DOB is 13/02/1990
Stefan McKevitt not in game, he is a right back who is on the fringes, DOB 29/06/1987. Birthplace Dundalk.
Young striker Tiernan Mulvenna also not in the game, he has already scored for us. Small and pacey, have no DOB but I believe he is 19.
Eamonn Martin should not be in the game.
Dundalk players missing - Thomas McGauley (Monaghan), Shaun Williams (on loan from Drogheda, position should be changed to MLC), Chris Doran no longer at club (free agent).
There are a couple of players who I have mentioned who are not in the game and probably should be, I don't have dates of birth though.
Non players - Peter Halpin, no longer Dundalk General Manager, he is General Manager at Bohs. Lisa Kelly is General Manager/Commercial Manager.
Will have a proper look when I get home.
just noticed with Shels that there way off been realistic... there reputation is 4500, the players there getting in the 1st division is a bit stupid tbh. there walking that and no doubt there gonna be challenging for the Prem once they get promoted with that.... they should be lowered to 1500 at most, no player would touch them at this point of time regardless of them been champions or not, while now most Prem teams wouldnt even be able to compete in the market with them for a particular player....
id have a feeling there finance is too big also but didnt look into that
there staus also needs changing from pro back to semi-pro
didnt leech also sign for them??.... he's down as a free agent
not too sure of there current players just him and he was missing so wouldnt be surprised to see more missing
also didnt see Rutherord on longfords team!!:confused:
when is the actual game coming out or is it out already?
came out LAST friday, but it was meant to be this friday coming along with PES!Quote:
