Things you should know:
– I had a few setbacks in making this patch and even had to redo the whole database for the new leagues over the last few days because initially when I converted and imported some tables from my 15 patch, I had too many ID’s that are being in use by the new FIFA 16. I was thinking of just leaving it as is, but I couldn’t do it. It just looked awful to have the correct names of some players but totally wrong info, like different nationality and position.
That should now be corrected, but there might be a few stragglers that I missed. So please guys, if you know your USL/NASL clubs well and you see a player with a wrong miniface or totally wrong info let me know. Most player mistakes will probably just be wrong miniface. Not many though. I’ve already started a list to correct those, but please help out by telling me if you see any.
– Rosters might not be 100% accurate since I basically just converted it from my 15 patch, but it’s pretty close. I will update rosters if need be when we have a good editing tool with a visual UI. It’s a bit of a hassle having to edit the db manually with no visual aid. Hopefully for V2.
– There is a weird quirk where the preseason tournament only works in the first year for the MLS, USL, and NASL. In the following years, it does invite you to the tournament but you don’t actually get to play the games for some reason. And you will notice in your emails that it says you won the tournament and get awarded the money. That’s not a big deal to me at all. The rest is all working fine.
– Another weird quirk that only affects the NASL is that after the first season, your team budget defaults to $80K for transfer and $400 for weekly wages. I tried alot of things and couldn’t fix that. The workaround for that would be to sign all your important players in the first year and be sure to use your youth academy for some cheap gems. The other thing is since the preseason tournament isn’t functioning correctly but you still get the prize money, that essentially becomes your transfer funds and problem solved. Even though I did downgrade the prize money for the preseason tournaments (by default it’s ridiculously high, especially for CONCACAF preseason matches), I readjusted it again to compensate for the NASL budget issue. It should be fine.
– Ok, here’s one that might be a big deal for my Mexican users. I completely changed the Liga MX format to a single table with no playoffs and it runs simultaneously with the MLS, USL and NASL schedules. Here’s why I did it: To be able to schedule all the competitions properly and not have back to back games or even 2 games in one day. I also did it to prepare for future updates with the addition of Ascenso MX and Copa MX which will add more clutter to the schedule, not to mention the Libertadores that Liga MX also participates in. And it will also make promotion/relegation between Liga MX and Ascenso MX much smoother.
-CONCACAF Champions League right now is just the top 4 Liga MX and 4 American/Canadian clubs (MLS Cup Winner and Runner Up, US Open Cup winner and Amway Canadian Championship winner)
– Copa Libertadores will include teams 5-7 in the Liga MX table (the next best 3 teams not in CONCACAF Champions League, kind of similar to real life)
-Patch is only in the English language and I don’t plan on doing it in any other language.
-I don’t plan on making the Brazilian league playable in career mode. It’s not really in the scope of my patch. Sorry
