The Special One's Academy (FM08 - Sign-Up!)

You can choose as many as you want I think. Just means you need a large database and the game will run slower...

Yes, its only when you use the silly new game wizard to start a game, that you are given restrictions. If you do it the old fashion way you can really go to town.

treva, I don't see a point in using any database other than the large one if you want to get a proper variety of talent, unless you computer can't cope. Besides from my experiences anyway, lots of leagues if they are just viewable and not playable don't cause much slowdown anyway.

Oh I didn't know about that, I've only been using this new game thing lol, how do you change it? I do use a large database though.

 

[Maxkarter]

I think its pretty much the same with the add new manager screen. Basically it has the wizard, and you click 'advanced options' should be bottom right. And from there you basically have to navigate the tabs etc.

 

[freddiw]

can wait and im sure there is a way

You can only look at positions in the league table for 3 different nations, now if those 3 are the rubbish nations we chose the moment we move out of our countires he won't be able to see how we're doing in our leagues.

As I was going to say at a later point, the leagues I load will be:

Switzerland (Top 2)
Ireland (Top 2)
Ukraine (Top 2)
Greece (Top 2)
England (League 1 and up)
Italy (Serie B and up)
Germany (Top 2 divs)
Spain (Top 2)
France (Top 2)

You cannot move outside of those leagues and you can move between teams in them.

 

[Leicester Fox]

All the major ones then yeh that was me being an idiot because I've always used the quick start up thing, now I know though I won't! Any idea when it's starting? How many sign ups do you want?

 

[The Spin]

16 in total, 4 for each league

 

[The Spin]

Places Taken (out of 4)
Ireland - 4
Greece - 4
Switzerland - 3
Ukraine - 2

Treva must choose another team in Switzerland or Ukraine

Yes, one of you could become a World Cup winning manager. Or you could just get fired and stay on the dole

 

[freddiw]
