FM24 "Increase-Realism"-Megapack OCTOBER Early-Access (27.09.24)
🕑 Added 2024-09-27 14:53:37 +0000 UTCHello everyone! I am very pleased to present you my next update.
This month's focus was on several areas:
1. Generally adapt transfer amounts/money even better to the previous summer transfer window
2. Increase the level of realism for a game start in the 24/25 season
3. Adjust finances for various lower leagues
4. other bug fixes
For those 4 points I had to adjust 9 files :D
For BETA users:
There were no changes compared to the BETA
I just want to briefly explain how complex certain things are:
1. Generally adapt transfer amounts/money even better to the previous summer transfer window
In order to achieve this, more money basically needs to be pumped in. But more money leads to even more investment in the facilities. This in turn leads to the players becoming too strong and then cost more money (which was the goal), but the player CA becoming too high and things like squad building becoming more unrealistic. (For example, in England there are some players with CA140+ in the U21 who have no playing time in the first team. A transfer is also difficult because they are simply too expensive.
As you can see: It's not that easy :D But I think I managed it pretty well.
The following files are updated to fix that: "Salaries Market-values & Sponsors", "Youth & training facilities improvements", "Alternative youth ratings & others", "league reputation changes" & "ticket-price adjustments
2. Increase the level of realism for a game start in the 24/25 season
For this goal I created 2 new files -> "Club finances fix 24_25 season" & "New players 24_25 season"
You can find both files in the “24_25 season fixes” folder.
!IMPORTANT!, If you want to use these files (recommended), first delete the other files "Club finances fix", Club reputation fix" & "New players". DO NOT USE BOTH
What do the files do?
1. "Club finances fix 24_25 season" adjusts the account balance to the 24/25 season (win/loss transfers). The sums were not always taken over 1:1 but were left in a comprehensible ratio. !IMPORTANT! I always recommend to disable the first transfer window. Transfer-budget will be then calculated more accurate and as IRL, transfer windows are already closed in the big leagues.
2. "New players 24/25 season" makes all players 1 year older in order to align them with the sortitoutsi file.
3. Adjust finances for various lower leagues
As already communicated, I have adapted the file for all lower leagues, which MasterIgor released in his latest update. I also managed to make the finances in Italy/Portugal/France and Germany even more realistic for division 2 and lower. This also includes missing player salaries in those leagues.
4. other bug fixes
several smaller fixes in some of the files updated
Plans until public release:
1. Guide "How to increase realism in FM24 - extended version" -> next week
2. I won't be uploading a test save for this month, as I'm planning a final save with the largest possible setup with my last realism update next month. This should be the biggest savegame I've ever created. Simulate 24/7 for at least 3 weeks. :D
That's about it for this month. I hope you like the changes!
Cheers

Well, with the announcement that FM 25 is delayed until March 2025, I'm glad we got your files.

Entschuldigung, dass ich auf deutsch schreibe, ich hoffe das ist ok: Vielen, vielen Dank für deine grandiose Arbeit! Ich finde es unglaublich was du da alles auf die Beine gestellt hast und finde deine Arbeit unbedingt unterstützenwert. Herzlichen Dank (etwas Kreativeres fällt mir leider nicht ein)!
