Hi

Is it possible to have the stadium backgrounds installed but have them show up on match days only? (instead of them appearing on team information, squad screens etc.)

Thanks for any help.

take it you haven't searched the forums very thoroughly.

the important element of a picture pack is the config file, which instructs where the picture is shown...either to club or stadium

there's a fix out for the FM07 editor so we can confirm stadium ID's....as in most cases this will be different to the club ID...

I've read several times "the fix is out there" But were can we find that fix?

Beefster

inside the football manager folder is a folder called 'editor data'

inside that is a .xml file called 'EditorColumns.xml'


edit that with notepad..

so that it looks like this......or just delete the contents of that once opened....and copy this in....

the important thing is the bit stating 'Unique ID' as this will add a column into the results of the editors findings allowing you to see the ID.....



copy this..........
