To be fair the game is not that huge that the developers are worrying about online cheating. I don't think that many people outside the closed group even play this game online.
It is interesting that you think the size or popularity of a game would have an impact on how much its developers worry about online cheating. I have been communicating directly with the developers and it is clear to me that they take this very seriously. Did you consider that perhaps a small game would be more vulnerable to the effects of a small number of cheats, since that small number would impact a larger proportion of its player base?
In what sense is the group closed? As far as I understand, the online game is completely open to be played by anyone. Even people who haven't bought the game can play online using the free demo.
Is there any point to your comments, or are you just trying to waste my time?

I seriously don't know why the developers care so much about online play instead of focussing on the singleplayer because this game is meant to be played this way primarily and editor adds tons of fun.
Always use the latest version of the editor to get the most stable version. All your old savegames will work with the latest game version, so just update the game.

Hi @weetabixharry the game has been updated to version 20.15 just now. The patch indicates some code written to prevent edited teams from playing online. Great news I guess?

Yes, this is very good news. I received an E-mail from the developers saying they had solved the issue and improved protection for online players. They guessed that the editor probably wouldn't need to be updated for the new game patch, because the database was not affected. Is the 20.14 editor still working with 20.15?

Run Cricket Captain 2020.09 and load an Easy difficulty career mode game, or a Tournament game.
Run the editor.
Only "Load" or "Apply" the Player Editor while viewing that player in-game.
Only "Add Coach + Physio" while viewing the Coaching screen in-game.
It should be safe to "Load Budget", "Save Budget" and set "100% Squad Fitness" from just about any screen in the game.
If you change a player's role (batsman, bowler, all-rounder, keeper, opener, etc.) then always exit their profile in-game, then exit the next screen (so the correct team order is regenerated) before editing any other player.
Selection Editor: Only use this tool in the match start screen (just before the coin toss).
Squad Editor: Only use this tool when viewing the international squad you want to edit. Clicking "Load Players" launches the Scout, which allows you to filter a list of players to consider for selection. When you close the scout, the filtered player list will be copied back into the Squad Editor.
I haven't had any issues, but there is always a chance the editor could corrupt your savegame. Back it up if you don't want to risk losing it.
Please check the following FAQ before asking a question. I will update the FAQ with any new questions.
FAQ (PLEASE READ):
Q: Can I use this editor to cheat online?
A: No. The editor is not compatible with any game modes eligible for online play. At best, the Editor will crash if you try to edit a Normal mode game (and is likely to corrupt your savegame). The editor is a very simple memory editor that is easily detectable by Steam. If you try to edit online games, you will be banned. You have been warned - I am not responsible for any bans.
Q: Can I edit player ability?
A: Yes. You can offset by a specified +/- percentage, or randomize player ability (within specified limits). However, you cannot view ability or potential ability. (This limitation is requested by the game's developers).
Q: Does the editor run on Mac, Linux or mobile devices?
A: No. I have tested it in Windows 7 and 10. If there is high demand, then I could look into porting to other platforms.
Q: Where is the download link?
A: Click on a version name in the table below.
Q: How did you write this editor?
A: The original version was written (in C#) by Fe98 more than a decade ago, based on a huge community effort to reverse-engineer earlier versions of the game. They deserve most of the credit. I have just updated and added features.
Q: Is the editor finished?
A: No. There are a lot of features that I am still working on. Please feel free to suggest anything else you would like to see in the editor.
Can somebody please help me in solving this matter? I tried several times loaded my game in easy mode and every time I open editor it shows this error. Please Help!!
