Anyone know where i can get the original database?

I have downloaded a data update, but want to start an online game, so need to get the original database, however i dont want to uninstall and then reinstall the game just to get the original database.

Any ideas?

(please keep it legal as well please lol)

why dont you install the 505 patch with data?

if you need it from the very beginning IE beginning of last season, then I am not too sure.

Laxly

I've already got 5.0.5 applied.

Looks like i got to uninstall and then reinstall the game, just have to remove all my graphic updates first i guess.

Oh well, fun night ahead for me

but if you install 505 with the data, wont it overwrite your current database with the original one.

Laxly

I've already got 5.0.5 installed, so are you saying i need to "reinstall" the patch??

Anyone from SI comfirm if that would work or not?

You will have to reinstall the game, and then reinstall the patch, yes.

Then make a backup of the original database before you do anything else !!

Nuts ! Oh well, glad i got the patch saved on my pc seperate from the game so i can just reuse that without having to redownload it.


Now where's the thread i started about how to install 5.0.5 ??

I think that if you just use the "repair" function and then just apply your patch you will get your original database back

Try to look at "My documents" folder for a Sport Interactive folder. There u will find a backup for the data base. It had one in my computer, and i never had to create any folder.
