football manager 2012 (release date is 21st oct)

nah it was peerblock that was blocking it

G have you installed fmrte?

Yup, how can one go without ;)

i had a funny feeling a pirate like you would have it.

i found some sort of user guide http://web.archive.org/web/20110703081909/http://www.fmrte.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=909

Player Match Exercise Cheat:
This is probably the biggest cheat possible for FMRTE, as it will grantee goals and that means certain victory. You can do this on as many players as you like it will work 100% of the time.This is best to do the day of a match, what you need to do is go to the player's information screen in FMRTE and at the bottom there is the details bar.

Select the players match exercise:

Change it to 32700 or 29634.

Save it then go back to the game and play your match, Ignore the players fitness as it will show something like 39%. That doesn't matter you will score lots of goals

Does that work?

dunno but that just makes the game pointless. woohoo i won 12-0 again, this game is so realistic and i am so good at it!

xp No idea, I don't tinker about with it that often. But I'll try to see what happens

what have you used it for?

apparently the match fitness cheat only works when your about to go to kick off

Tried it, didn't do nowt, sounds like bollocks to me

it says once youre about to kick off you change your players match fitness to 29634 and it should work

Tried it once but it didn't do anything. Besides I'm not down with trickery like that anyway, like a hoy hoy said

Ok, tried it again. Leading 0-14 at half-time. No fun. Don't know why they even build in these things.

lol 14-0??????

Yeah. Apparently, entering that number you posted in the match fitness box, nearly every touch becomes a goal

hahaha . handy to know that if theres ever a team i cant beat i could use that.

wonder why match fitness would make such a difference

what is it like watching that on the 3d engine? do they just shoot from wherever they get the ball?

It doesn't, it's just a stupid thing the programmers put in to use as a cheat. And I keep asking why they would do that in the first place and have it "leak" like this. Seems silly to me.

xp I never watch 3d. Classic 2d all the way for me tbh

if players get the ball in their own half take on 7 players and chip the keeper for a wonder goal i will totally try it!

No not from wherever, but the ball somehow ends up with the player I adjusted that number of, and that player scores

It doesn't, it's just a stupid thing the programmers put in to use as a cheat. And I keep asking why they would do that in the first place and have it "leak" like this. Seems silly to me.

video game programmers being stupid dicks shocker

it is feb 1st. barca have drawn twice (once against us) and lost once. we have drawn once (v. barca) and lost once, having played 1 game less.

i'm gonna on holiday under march 27th so i can do my nanowrimo and listen to black flag.

Sam otm

G is pretending he will be in bed while he will actually be playing fm12

lol i tried the cheat and won 23-0

but yeah it takes away a bit of the fun. would be better if it was a guarantee you win cheat but you only beat the top teams by 1 or 2 goals in a 5-3 thriller or something

that would still suck tbh.

if you want to just win every game there is already an in built reality cheat called 'managing barcelona'.

ok i cannot sell kaka for the fucking life of me. he has another 3 years left of a 10m/per year contract, at which time he'll be 34. he already cannot make my first team and offering him to clubs for £0 has... everyone going 'ummm we have a wage structure, plz stop bugging us'.

i mean i can afford to keep him around, the money isnt the trouble. but he's good enough to not put in my reserves, not good enough to make my first team and just in the way of lots of youngsters like canales who i should play more but i am busy trying to put kaka in the shop window/get my moneys worth.

just fucking leave already ricardo.

2 solutions use fmrte to swap him with someone.
or
Add new manager and choose man city and buy him for shitloads and swap deal including silva and aguero at the same time

i used to do that in championship manager days i assume you still can?

or use fmrte to end his contract or use fmrte to add to your balance and wage budget etc

when I had a world-beating team of 23-year-olds in FM09 I did the thing of spending tens of millions on a youth team, but that game's combination of it being so difficult to loan out players and top players not really declining until their mid-30s kind of ruined it.

This thread is making an entry into FM12 so very tempting, but aaaah I'm already ridiculously busy without adding the required five hours of FMing a day to everything.

Sam, can't you kick up a controversy, speak to him and tell him he sucks, transfer list him, offer him to clubs every week etc. Make his life miserable. If he's still pulling a Bogarde and is fine with being benched for years to come raking in the cash, go for the editor and injure him for life imho

seems easier to add a 2nd manager and go city. make some cash and swap a few players

he's cool to go, just no-one will bid for him.

still don't vibe well w/ easy cheating. maybe i'll do it with a club who deserve to get rid of a shitty manager (jose went to city and won the league.)

also half the fun of fm is feeling sweary until you figure out a way to sort things out.

just noticed that last season spurs bought eboue for 15.75m and now he is transfer listed. lols.

also first time i misspelt it sours, which i like.

mata is unhappy at chelsea, and i think i can pull off 30m+kaka to get rid of him.

did you?

looks great

ended up being 43+kaka and 9m p/y AND then he got injured for 4 months, but i already prefer mata. he can play anywhere, he counts towards my homegrown which is v. precious considering i'm going to let adan, alonso and arbeloa go at the end of the season, he scored 1 v. barca and 2 v. valencia.

i wish there was a way i could abolish my c team. i have absolutely no use for it. i have a first+second team, then castilla for guys 17ish-20 and an u19s for players 17ish and under.

my yuts just came back from 2-0 in the cup to win 4-2 so fuck it, this is too easy and i'm just gonna sell di maria, benzema, alonso, surin etc. and try to work towards something. i am 9 points ahead of barca, who have cocked right up this season (they have had 1 big signing since i started and that was a forward, no forward looking to replace puyol or abidal or xavi etc.)

lol i just assumed barca were second. 18 games in I AM 17 POINTS AHEAD OF BARCA. I think i'm gonna go ask Ozil and CR7 if they wanna go on holiday for a couple months and play more 16 year olds.

still on FM10 so not the right thread, but just wanted to congratulate myself on clinching the lge with LFC after just 29 games! A feat unprecedented in my FM career. Won 27 drawn 2. I did get knocked out of both the League and FA Cups by Chelsea at the first hurdle mind you which the board isn't letting me forget.

Man City spent £113m in the close season. Currently 6th. I spent £1.7m on a back up RB whilst selling them a DM for £40m

Just over half of the first season with PSV. Second in the league, 5 points behind Twente. Ajax is only 7th though ~ biggest evidence of the great realistic improvements that were made! ;)

I'm really struggling against the small clubs in the league though, like the bottom six I can only win 1-0 or 2-1 if not drawing or even losing. Effing annoying. I know I'm doing something wrong tactically but I can't figure out what it is.

what r yr current tactics?

do you have full familiarity? until you do players may not respond

Like once a month (well not now my laptop hates me) when my familiarity takes an obvious bump up is when I change one thing to my tactics, and then try to get it to move back up so i can slowly turn them into a pass-and-move demon.

currently wondering about playing just one centre half. i think, given time and full backs who know when to stay back, i could make it work and put a guy in the hole behind my 2 forwards.

"full familiarity" I don't even know what that means tbh

I just have a tweaked tactic. Playing 4-2-3-1 mostly, 4-1-4-1 against the weaker ones. But even with the former they still can't break the defensive wall down.

Maybe my players are just twats.
