This project is where legends are added to the game as new/future Regens, initially I had it working in FM21

But due to SI changes it was not working in FM22, they blocked some files, but I have ran tests and it seems to be working in FM 23 👍

it will depend on the various nations when the intake of regens happens in game it could be a year after start date

 [This is not placed in your editor data folder it is not a FMF or XML file]

 

The file is an edt file so it is placed  here- 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2023\data\database\db\2300\edt\permanent

 

YOU ALSO NEED TO ADD THIS TO THE 2330 AND 2340 UPDATES TOO-[and any future new games eg FM24]

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2024\data\database\db\2430\edt\permanent

 

 

NB You need to start a new save for this to work

 

you can edit[use notepad++] the file to suite your needs perhaps add yourself/anyone as a future regen  so add/remove as you wish

 

I will show how its done in the next few posts

 

This is not to be posted on any other sites without my permission 

 

 

There is the option to add - minus values for PA instead of fixed values eg you could try -9 instead of a fixed 180 etc etc I have added the top 3 players in the file  with -minus PA and they do work in game

Quote

 

I am once again sharing this file with the community here

 

further testing is needed by you  on things like this minus PA  you can try this yourself and report back

 

note this file I worked on FOR FM21[didnt work in FM22] 

 

so the year of births should be made later if you want these legends to start as youth players later in game I would say 2006/ 2007 [and keep increasing the year to stagger the intake so if you dont want them all in the game at the same time] as a starting year in 2023 making them 16 

 

NB if and when there are any updates to the game the file will have to be added to DB update folders eg

 

Football Manager FM23

2300

2310

2330

2340

 

Football Manager FM24

2400

2430

Is there any updated info on whether this is working in FM24?

Thank you very much!

It is my bad, sorry. 
I misunderstood that you needed the FMRTE license and thought you just needed an account. Got a license now and the download is working.


EDIT to avoid double-posting:

Is this list done as far as you are concerned or are there plans to extend it, for example with the FIFA 100?

Hi

I have no more time to add to this

users can add to the regens as they wish the first page shows how to do it

cheers

I made my own FutureLegends Regen database while using some of your players and I would like to post it somewhere so people can add to it.

Do I have your permission to go ahead and post my file, your instructions on how to add and credit you with the idea in the editors hideaway of the SI forums?

Best regards,
Marc

EDIT: Are you the same culturedleftfoot as the one in SI Forums? Because if so I can tag you when giving credit.

Hi Marc

Can you please post the file here 

 

no that isnt me

 

you can start your own thread here and give details of some of the players added or I can add it to this one and credit you

cheers

This file contains the missing players of the FIFA100 and as such is a great addition to your file.

Notably, I have set the PA very high, with most players having straight up -9 or -10. This is because I prefer it this way and because I feel like everyone named as one of the best 125 living football players at the time should have a shot at true top potential, a shot at surpassing others as a regen.

Due to time constraints, ethnicity, skin colour and hair colour are NOT accurate for most of the players.

If someone finds they want to fix this or further add to the database, I welcome you and kindly ask you to share your file so the number of legendary regens can increase further.

Hi all, am trying to add future regens to a new sava at the moment. Am using several threads i have found on the internet for information.

Firstly cannot find a notepad +++ anywhere on the internet, so am using notepad ++. 

Have seen several versions of the name to save the file under. One being FutureRegen, i think this might not work though as we shouldn't use caps so am trying future_regen.edt. The other suggestion is to save the file as support_staff.edt. Have looked in the permanent file though and this file already exists in ( for fm23)2300, 2330 and 2340. So am at moment a bit confused with the conflicting information. Also nobody has suggested how you save the file, is it as normal text file? Am going to try loading a new save and using players i hsve created using future_regen and simply haha hope it works. If anyone is aware of complete and up to date instructions, please can you post them somewhere. 

Have tried also to download the 2 future regen files i have found on this site but dont seem to be allowed. Is there any way please that i can possibly download this file because it's simply a fantastic idea. I had no idea you could do this until last night. Would appreciate some help and guidance. Thanks M

Welcome to the forum @ttam1

 

 

I think @MRCMX can help you here.

All help gratefully received. Thanks

 

Ah ok. I see i need a licence to download the regen files.

Would save some time but may try doing them myself. If not, how do i get a fmrte licence, and can i still get one for fm23?

So, you'll need to save it as an .edt file. The name FutureRegen works perfectly fine for me. Make sure to save it in data/database/db/2300/edt/permanent and doing it for all of the updates (2300, 2330, 2340). 

It should then work for new savefiles.
Anything in particular that's acting up?
Be aware that you need to set clubs for the players as they didn't appear when I didn't put in a club ID for them.

Hi. Thanks for the info. Just holidaying to test(in feb at moment). The club name is for fave club only? But last in list, eg where they play is club id is 700 for example?

Not worked. Is everyone else using notepad +++? Any idea where to find it? I am saving it as blahblah.edt. That i understand but am using notepad ++ . When you save a file you save as file name: FutureRegen.edt.

However the next line underneath is save as type, you open the dropdown and pick your file type,...should this be edt file also? Because this isnt available for notepad ++?????

I didn't use Notepad at all, I did it in the normal text editor and saved it as an .edt.
So perhaps opening in the editor, then saving as an .edt is the solution for you.
And I always name it FutureRegen.edt to be safe.

It's not necessary to put an ID for favorite club, but it's necessary to put a club ID (last entry of the line) in order for the player to appear at said club.

@ttam1

If you are struggling to follow my instructions in the opening posts-

 

simple solution download the original file

 

open your file in notepad or notepad++ copy all your entries then close this file

 

now open my file clear the entries in it and paste those you coped and press save

 

you now have the file in the correct format

 

 

 

If in doubt, as @culturedleftfoot says, download the original, just use Notepad on Windows, copy yours into his.

 

If you're still stuck, share what you're trying to add on here and I'll merge it for you.

 

Likely not before about 2200hrs, but I've merged my own file and used my own separately, including with Notepad++.

 

Happy to help.

You too! I'm looking forward to finally, finally, getting some quality FM, Movie and Chill time.

 

Can't believe I've had the game since launch and barely made it through a season 😂

Thanks all. Will have another go. Willl try saving as FutureRegen.edt this time, not future_regen.edt. Have everything typed correctly in the file, compared it with yours. 

Have just watched a vid on youtube by second yellow card ...he does it slightly differently. He right clicks on support_ staff in only last file, so that would be 3340 i think for fm23. It then asks you what you want to use to edit, so you open the support_staff.edt file and edit it that way instead of creating your own file. Anyone tried it that way yet?
