Slight problem my English Badges, some times they are rotated and sometimes just the normal default.


Depends what is in your logos folder. If you have both sets, it might confuse the program.

If you only want to have the rotating logos, get rid of the other ones in the folder. To be on the safe side, put them in another folder somewhere else incase you need them again.

Any help would be appreciated smile.gif

Is it just the Premiership badges? or the whole of England? Or was it the pack with every badge in the world in it?

It was a pack with all English teams. It did'nt have the problem with the Scottish ones though. Bizzare.

Right, go to My Computer then C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2006\data\graphics\pictures\logos\clubs\ then into England (or Eng)

Look for a file that is called config.xml (this could be in England, Premiership, anything, so look in every folder within the england one to see), if there are 2 (which is most likely because you havent got rid of the original) you have to delete the original one.

How do i tell which is the original one i hear you ask? I haven't a clue sad.gif

Tip: If you don't know which is the original (which you have to delete) DO NOT DELETE IT UNTIL YOU KNOW, you know by moving it out of the England folder andputting it on your desktop or anywhere, turn on the game, check if the rotated badges come up, if they do, then you can delete the config.xml which you just moved to the desktop, if the rotated badges don't show, move the desktop config back to:

C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2006\data\graphics\pictures\logos\clubs\Eng

And delete the other

I won the Challenge Cup with a 94th minute penalty from Ian MacSween, who is a supberb signing. It finished 3-2, and I was very lucky. The Saintees were all over Clyde for all of the game laugh.gif

Aye, I've saw that before. In the game I'm playing in, Arsenal are at the Emirates Stadium now.

Talking of stadiums, I'm in season 2009-10 in my game, and the Challenge Cup Final this season (Falkirk v Gretna) was played at.........Murrayfield!!

Never saw that happen before, didn't think Murrayfield would even be in the game. ohmy.gif

Seems to be played at Murrayfield every year in my game.

Arsenal also moved out of the Emirates Stadium after one season, and now play in the 90,000 capacity New Wembley blink.gif

It seems morale plays a huge part in my game as Alloa.

I won the first game of the season and with my players morale at 'superb', they went to record 6 games without a defeat. Once that defeat arrived, their morale slumped down to 'poor' etc and they go on to produce some miserable results for a month or so! blink.gif

Bugs the hell out of me, if I could get a bit of consistancy then I could challenge for the league.

Btw I'm into my fourth season as Alloa and despite staying up in the 1st division twice (and now on my way to staying up for the third time) theres still been no offer to turn full time! mad.gif

'Steve
Just had an absolutely fantastic season. biggrin.gif

[attachmentid=8010]

Now if the board don't announce the club are going full time in the summer then I am resigning. Thats the 3rd season in a row that I've stayed up in the 1st division and just finished miles clear in 4th place.

I can barely sign any decent players and the club won't go any further unless they announce they are going full time!

I don't really see why they wouldn't as the training facilities have been upgraded to the best there is (Top facilities plus youth academy) plus the stadium capacity is being upgraded. I also have around £4m in the bank.

Will report back whether they do or not.

Extract them to C://Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2006/graphics/...

Replace ... with whatever it is (kits, badges, facepacks) then

.../club or international/region (Sco, Eng, Fra, Spa, etc)

[attachmentid=8107]

This came as I noticed my in form winger still had a small minimum fee release of £8.5 million. I hastily offered him a new deal given that Inter, Milan and Madrid as well as Chelski and Arsenal were after him. After I rejected this Arsenal bid he promptly demanded more money - but I made sure his requested minimum fee release was bumped up - now stands at £75 million laugh.gif
RiG
On a bit of a better run of form now as you can see - tweaked my tactics a bit more now. A couple of new players have come into the squad as well including the most versatile player in the world ever! laugh.gif

Vitti, a striker, arrived as I expect to lose Tevez as he still refuses a new deal. Saviola will probably be moved on as well having failed to secure a starting slot. Forestieri, a young Argentine forward, arrived as well along with Iversen and Loe Bing, both Norwegian youth players of good potential according to my scouts.

Kim Kallstrom has signed a pre contract and I have tied up deals for a new keeper and signed a promising Argentine defender from Barca who looks pretty good. Here are the latest screenshots inclduing an interesting episode involving Arsenal and a cup game where I got the better of Wenger and his mind games biggrin.gif
