FM24 "Increase-Realism"-Megapack AUGUST EARLY-ACCESS (26.07.24)
🕑 Added 2024-07-26 09:53:06 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
My next update is ready...and it’s a big step forward to my ultimate goal: The most complete Football Manager ever!
I've been working for about 3 months on this update until I was finally happy with the result.
!FOR ALPHA/BETA USERS!
There were no changes compared to the BETA.
What’s new this month?
No idea where to start to be honest….There are are !12! existing files updated and 4 new files (Player salary fix, club Sponsorship Adjustments, staff salary fix & taxes fix)
The main goal of this month's update is that all 200+ nations are now well balanced in longterm-saves in the following areas:
- Finances
- Player strenghts
- age distribution of national teams
Furthermore, it was important to me that the entire gaming world behaves more dynamically again in Terms of Sponsorship income etc. This is now the case for all nations.
All updated or new files:
- Alternative Youth Rating + Game Importance & others (UPDATE)
- Salaries, Market-Values & Sponsors (UPDATE)
- Youth & Training facilities (UPDATE)
- CA_PA Adjustments, New wonderkids & others (UPDATE)
- Worldwide Award fixes (UPDATE)
- Club Reputation fix (UPDATE)
- Club finances fix (UPDATE)
- League Reputation fix (UPDATE)
- National team Reputation fix (UPDATE)
- Ticket-Price Adjustments (UPDATE)
- Club data fix (UPDATE)
- Club Transfer preferences (UPDATE)
- Club Sponsorship Adjustments (NEW)
- Player salary fix (NEW)
- Staff salary fix (NEW)
- Taxes fix (NEW)
The main difference you'll notice of the changes in those files are:
- Less very high CA-Players in longterm-saves (CA140+)
- More dynamic sponsorship-fees & salaries. Especially top clubs may struggle more if they are being managed badly over several years
- Nations aren't massively overpowered or underpowered anymore
About the new files:
CLUB SPONSORSHIP ADJUSTMENTS
This file deletes all existing Sponsorship deals (with a couple of exceptions). The Sponsorship income is now purely calculated via the file "Salaries, Market-values & Sponsors". The reason for this drastic change is that the majority of real Sponsorship deals are getting extended until forever, no matter how the club's success is. This keeps big clubs big and small clubs small. This file removes this mechanism.
PLAYER SALARY FIX
This file adds missing salaries of over 1300 Players. The main focus was on Players with a high CA or Players in the second/third division in England/Italy/France/Germany & Spain.
The reason why this file is important is actually annoying. Salaries are calculated based on reputation ranges. However, player reputations are increasing too strong over time and there is no way to reduce it. This means that in 2023, player-salaries tend to be too low if no real value is added and later in the game it's too high. This file helps to reduce that gap so I was able to reduce AI-salaries and Sponsorship deals of clubs in longterm-saves to a more realistic Level without the clubs going bankrupt. However, in the first 2-3 years, Sponsorship income, especially in 2nd divison of top leagues (Germany, France, Italy) are still a bit high. There is no way to balance it perfectly in short AND longterm.
STAFF SALARY FIX
This file changes the salary-demands of staff members likes scouts, assistant managers etc. in all nations. In some nations, staff members earned multiple times more compared to Players, which is weird. This file also helped to achieve a better balanced economy worldwide.
TAXES FIX
This file includes fixes for outdated or missing taxation rules for 14 nations
OTHER CHANGES WORTH MENTIONING:
- Club Transfer preferences received a big update and covers now over 100 clubs from 50+ nations
- CA_PA Adjustments, New wonderkids & others also received an update. It now contains 119k+ changes for over 38k Players
This is it (more or less :D)!
I hope you like the changes I made:)
WHAT'S NEXT?
I'll be on holidays (Croatia) from 20.07.24-03.08.24, so there won't be any changes until public release. Public release is going to be a week later as usual (9th of August instead fo 2nd of August. I'll be online from time to time but the focus is definetly on my Family and on reloading my batteries for the upcoming months, so it's unlikely that I'll answer any PM's the next 2 weeks:)
Cheers
