Once there was a topic about CM Revolution Match Balls X.Y . In that topic Ter said things like:

What do you guys think would be best.

I was thinking that it would be best just to have two levels...

- Assign a ball to a competition
- Be able to assign a winter ball to competitions for use between Nov - Feb (or whenever they are used)

Just some random thoughts btw... I don't know if this will be possible or not.

I would have the priority list like this then...

club
competition
default

for example...

/balls/esp/barcelona/ball_11.png etc
/balls/esp/barcelona/winter/ball_11.png etc
/balls/esp/laliga/ball_11.png etc
/balls/default/ball_11.png etc
/balls/default/winter/ball_11.png etc

That's the way I would do it and have the game look for them in that order.

So I've got a question to SI: will we see that kind of thing in FM 2006? I know that You probably must have licenses for using club or comptetition balls and the whole action may cost a lot of time but it's was and still is a great idea! If the license is the problem maybe You could just make the possibility to assign balls for clubs and competitions and the CM Rev Match Balls team will to the rest ;] If time is problem - we can help!

Hi jakubkwa,

The only aspects of FM 2006 we are discussing at the moment are the ones we have announced so far.

We'll talk more about the game when we announce more stuff in the coming months.

That's better than a 'no' answer

Now I'll spend all the nights until this being announced thinking: 'If there wouldn't be such a thing in FM 2006, they would tell us that!'

dunno, but i know i thought about it a while ago and other suggestions such as...

different matchday graphics
(BBC for FA cup, SKY for CL, ITV for League cup and CL etc etc)

Different on pitch graphics
(different shirts for refs depending on competition, different nets etc)

Different balls
(winter balls automatically used, balls for different competitions)

Also, in regards to getting licences for different balls, SI dont need to do that, they just need to include the option to allow us to alter them ourselves at a later date

Said that already

I don't like the different matchday graphics point personally because... I don't know actually why I don't likt it but I don't

One more thing I'd like to see is editable 2D pitch...

I think you're reading too much into my reply there. If anyone asks a question about a feature then they'll get the same response (unless the suggestion is a bit silly)

Once again, even if SI dont include different graphics, if they could include the option to skin different competitions it would allow people to provide alternate skins.
