International Friendlies - EDT file!

FuryG · 12-03-2006, 02:18 PM

Below are is the content of an edt-file for international friendlies, that I transferred from fm06 to fm07. So the fixtures are NOT real fixtures, I just brought them from 2005 to 2006. Just in case, anyone is interested to replace them with real fixtures or just wants to have more international friendlies and doesn't care that these are not the original ones.

As there are far too few international friendlies in the game (especially for continents like asia, north america or africa), I like to "fill up" the international schedule with lots of friendlies for the upcoming years. For example, due to the mode of the combined qualifers for the 2010 World Cup and African Nations Cup, half of the african national-teams have no single fixture for more than 2 years between 2008 and 2010 (because almost no friendlies are set by the game)! So I use an EDT-file to create lots of international friendlies in Africa for these periods preceeding a World Cup (2008-2010, 2012-2014,...)

here is an example of the edt-code (the last number is the unique id of the stadium)

I think this is a great idea as it will also help young players gain caps so that they are more likely to gain work permits

Just one question ... what do you name the file ?

FuryG · 12-05-2006, 06:38 PM

you can name it as you like, I named it "International Friendlies.edt" and put it in the directory of the database that I use

FuryG · 12-05-2006, 06:41 PM

The good thing with friedlies is, that some regular players my be retained by their clubs. Thus, as you said, younger players get the possibility to enterthe national team and grab a few caps, which they probably wouldn't if there where only full competitive internationals.

GoGa70 · 12-05-2006, 07:35 PM

the problem with it is that the game limits national teams to one or two games a month, while many smaller countries actually play multiple games on consecutive days, or have small cup-type competitions. I created a file with real-life friendlies, and only about a half of them shows in the game.

mxdragon · 12-06-2006, 04:02 AM

I like this idea but where in the db should i drop the file

mxdragon · 12-06-2006, 04:13 AM

answer my own Question...thank you
:p

mxdragon · 12-06-2006, 05:29 AM

ok I made the edt File drop it on the db Folder and started a new game but the friendlies didn't show

and make sure that you start your new game with english language enabled in the settings (since the names of the countries are written in english, most of them would not be recognized in e.g. french or dutch!)
