after i edited my files, it has always saved in the defualt location automatically.
location normally is:
My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager/db/(your saved file)

i try to avoid naming files that might cause conflictions/confusion to the AI, i really dont know if that does have an effect or not.

eg. when i created my world league i saved as:
Name: World league
Author: NW Challenge
Description: world club challenge
version: (leave it blank)

luckily i have yet to experience any problems relating to loading and gameplay.

i have checked and my file is there.........yet it still does not give me a database option and i still can't load my edited game.

i've found mine, i've recently had to re-install windows to a new partiton so the game was running from a different location to my database files. I moved them and now i'm fine. Thanks for helping.

sorted it, it was coz my main game was on my external harddrive and the new database was on the mian harddrive.

I can't load my edited database either - I never get an option when I start a new game.

Can we get a clear answer from SI on why it's doing this?

did you turned off the setup wizard setting in the settings? if so turn it on again and try it again.

Dude you're a genius :thup:

LOL - found that out last night!!!!

When I first got FM2007 - it let me load default or customised db

Next time......it never asked - so of course it confused me and I had not a clue how to or why it would not load my customised db.

So I reinstalled it, and the option came up again.

Then I saw that the wizard box has now been ticked!!

Hey guys Quick Question does clubs still get take overs when we play a customised database. As when we I load it up all the dat files are there.

larsV

did you copied your edt files and ddt files from the default db to your customised db?

if not you have to copy them to there and then the takeovers will work,with out the edt/ddt files in your customised db folder it will not happen.
