Nice skin. :) Me like it.
|
I like the skin, too. I have also noticed a performance increase with this skin. For instance, when I drag players around in tactics view it is much smoother.
Are there other popular skins out there that are popular or well thought-of that I can try to see if I get a performance increase or are easier on the eyes? This is such a huge improvement, I want to see if there isn't more I've been missing out there. |
jus had one of those moments last night where you get way too into the game.
got drawn against ManU in the knockout round of the CL. game 1: all-world WB L Fabio Grosso gets sent off on a BS call in the 4th minute. I manage to go up 1-0 before the Devils tie it up midway thru. pull out a stunning 2-1 win away. game 2: I take an early 1-0 lead but ManU strike back and score two unanswered to take the lead on away goals in like the 78th minute or so. I throw caution to the wind and push everyone forward, throwing on 3 offensive subs. we manage to score in the 84th minute to take the aggregate lead back and close out the game surviving a late ManU rush. and yeah I was yelling and exhorting my boys on |
By the by, I have #1 on my wishlist for future versions of FM.
Make. Save. Files. Importable. :) |

Um.. DT, if you won 2-1 away, and were down 2-1 at home.. it's tied, ain't it? 3-3 and 2 away goals for each
|
Is it possible to setup the current world cup with the real teams as a stand alone I guess like in say the action-style soccer games ie FIFA or Winning Eleven?
|
No, FM does not support create a cup or that kind of thing.

Might be possible for us to make inhouse - but not for a user I'm afraid ... |

Just a thought regarding this...could it be possible to make a physio history, where his 'stats' would include information about players developing injuries while under his care? |
Quote:
It's a nice thought, but I wouldn't hold my breath. The SI boys have stated in the past that this is pretty much impossible with all the changes to the game engine, and more importantly, the yearly changes that occur in league and competition rules. |
Quote:
I know, I know. But there's got to be a point where it MIGHT be feasible. The game as it stands is pretty damn rock solid. Is it really necessary to monkey with the guts of the game to the point where backwards compatibility is always out the window? (Of course, as a programmer, I know the answer to this, but I'm hoping!) |
i am absolutely LOVING this new skin!!! Thanks, totally freshened up my game and career.
|
For physios it's be great to have stats like "Injury Length Estimation" and "Treatment Length over Average". ILE would be a percentage of times where the physios estimate of injury length is within a reasonable number of standard deviations from the injury's true length. TLoA would be a percentage indicating how much faster or slower this phsyio helps players heal than the average physio in the nation, continent, world, whatever.

Yeah, tying something like that in with the suggestion I made earlier would be ideal to me. One way I gauge their ability is to look at their reputation. In my current dynasty with Man U, I had two physios each rated "world class". Then one of my players retired and was classifield as a physio. I figured, what the hell, I'll pick him up for a year, see if I can boost his rep a bit. Well, I don't know if its a coincidence or not, but I had more injuries in that one season than I had in the four years since I joined the club. It could be that my team was getting pretty old, therefore more susceptible to injury, but either way, I didn't take any chances and let the new guy go. I'm just starting the new season, so time will tell. |
If you want an alternative skin try this one...
http://www.throw-in.com/index.php?ac...1&sub=4&id=317 This guy created one that looks like itunes. It's kinda cool actually. |

This would be a nice thing to release if at all possible during the world cup. I know it is kind of late but it could have been good to grab at the World Cup fever. In the us there isn't much of it but having lived overseas 12 years I know it can be pretty exciting during cup time. |

That one looks interesting. Do the play, rewind, and ff buttons do anything? |

blah. so i must have gotten it wrong. i was posting that from my phone at work. let me load up the game and check it out. |
okay so it was 2-1 at home and then 1-1 away.
|
Here's another question -- in older versions, I used to be able to view a little graph which charted my team's standing in whatever league I was in throughout each week. Do they still have that?
|
I just wanted to say that I held out long enough. After 41 pages, 2000+ posts and 40,000+ views, I can no longer ignore or try to fend off the power that is WWSM 2006. I will be purchasing it tonight, where my journey into sleepless nights will begin. I hardly know anything about soccer but I figure to give it a good shot in trying to understand this game. I figure by the time I can play this game in any kind of average way, OOTP 2006 will have at least 2 or 3 patches. :)
|
dola
Also just wanted to say to Marc that I respect and appreciate how he handles the communication between the customers and his company. |
I think for your first time, you need to jump into an international league, not the MLS
|
Quote:
I was thinking of doing this. Is this still a good option in this version? |
i was just thinking this earlier: are there any other games (short of FM05) that were released that have remained so consistently active and on the top couple pages of the forum for so long?
any other threads? cept the MF thread of course. |
Quote:
Yes or maybe just one league with all levels for a start. |
Quote:
I think there are two reasons which make this thread so durable: First, it is an EXCELLENT game. Second, the SI boards are a nightmare. We have no choice but to come here if we have questions. |
Quote:
Bug would say the MLS is harder to play as in FM2006? |
Quote:
Yeah. If you go to the League Standings page for your league (or any other leagues you have selected), click on the "Pos" number on the left - it will show a graph of the position of the team you choose for the season. One of my favorites. |
Quote:
Thanks, I'll try it! I just tried the itunes skin, too -- it looks pretty cool! I don't really use itunes, but I like it. Maybe it will inspire me to use itunes now.. |

I'm a new player this year. Found the disk version of wsm in a Gamestop and picked it up. The learning curve is steep if, like me, you know nothing of "football" but well worth the effort. Stick with it, don't give up, and I know people here don't like the SI boards but go there and read some of the topics in the tactics forums. I probably printed out 50 pages from different posts there that taught me a lot. And of course the bonus of more reading material for the throne room. |

I believe this is the same post I used when setting up my leauge. I took out Germany and Holland and added Wales and Ireland top to bottom. I thought it would help since I was starting out unemployed in the UK to have other small leagues to try to find players. My computer is a few years old but has a 1.256 gig or ram and a 2 gig p4 processor and has no trouble running the game. At least not yet:) |
Quote:
I wouldn't say it's any steeper than FOF or any of the .400 games. Just keep this in mind: GK: Handling DC: Jumping, heading Everybody else: Teamwork, passing You'll be fine. |
probably asked, but, does anyone else seem to suffer from a midseason swoon every year? No matter what i do, my team always tanks in the middle of the season. two years on a row with new york, i gained 3 points from 12 games each season, right in the middle of my schedule. i know that coaches adapt to your tactics, but i just think the game compensates too much. i mean, each year i went from 1 to last in the division. no major injuries either year, and at the end of the years i finished 5th and 4th, and both times my team had around 5 players in the top 20 in avg rating, and i had the mls player of the year both times. i changed up tactics, tried everything, but both seasons my team just collapsed in midseason. any ideas why? they didn't seem tired.

Thanks Sweed, BreizhManu, and MrBug708

Ok, i am thinking of taking the plunge and after playing the demo and reading about htis great soccer game all these years finally go ahead and buy it. Anyways I was wondering if there is anywhere where I can find acomplete list of international teams in the game as well as leagues? I haven't been able to find it anywhere, and strangely enough not even on the SI site.

I have fond memories of the old days (circa 2000-2001ish) when the board (some of the forums anyways, like Off-Topic and Strategies) was actually pretty good. I don't even think I've visited it in the last year and a half. |
Quote:
Every international team in the world is in the game, you can control about 70 of them (they have to have enough players in the database to do so) There's more then 50 + nations and most have more then 1 league.. do you want the list? |
unbelieveably in the first World Cup game for wales both of my GK's got hurt and have been out. Game 2, we won 5-3 while I had a striker play GK, but here comes game 3 and I dont know if Ill have one of them back. I love this game.
|
Quote:
you only took 2?? this is why you GOTTA take 3 |

I hate injuries in these situations. I am currently managing Portugal. Having just played the 2016 European Championships, we had 7 starters injured (either in matches or training) by the time the first match ended. Needless to say, we were bounced pretty quickly. |
Quote:
If you have it and you could posyt it or send it to me that would great. |
I downloaded the game and get it all installed. But I do not see my registration key in the email anywhere? Any tips? Of course having this much trouble trying to find the registration key should forshadow my challenge with this game. :)

Thnaks for the list. i never thought to check to see if there was a wikipedia page.:o |
So I just noticed, on the wikipedia site, that you can do a Harchester United mod? Can anyone tell me anything about it?
|
There's 20 different Harchester United mods. they will reoplace the Premier League team you choose with harchester
|
Does it change just the name?
