you renamed all of the clubs instead of following the instructions and swapping the hong kong clubs with the real-life canadian clubs.

Ok, so YOU have to swap, that was the problem?

I assumed the game wouldn't care about renaming and renationalitied, thanks for your help!

Thank you for your time to answer my questions.

I wish I stumbled upon this BEFORE we made the database. :(

One more question, do we have to swap the lower Hong Kong league teams or can we leave them?

you can leave them, only swap from the playable leagues. you will have to remember to swap all hong kong clubs nationality back to hong kong though as for some reason they will change to canadian which will be a problem.

I have a problem. I followed the guide this time, but when I select the nations I want to play, it crashes while it's loading up. I am confused on what I could have done this time.

Hey Fedo, I'm Terry's mate, the second guy involved in trying to create a Canadian League from scratch using made-up clubs.

First of all, we fixed the crashing (that Terry mentions in the quote) that we were experiencing while choosing which nations you'd like to play in. (The clubs were entered as founded in 2007 which I think is a little too recent for the game).

The problem we have now is that our calenders have dates marked for matches but instead of saying who we're playing it says "Match 1, Match 2, ect.."

Our upcoming fixure box is also empty.

When Match day 1 comes up, we do infact have an opponent, but when it comes time to submit your team and commence into the 2d match the game just sits there and you can keep clicking submit, but it does nothing.

We have both added you to MSN, maybe if you're online later on if you can be such a gentlemen (as it appears you are by the heaps of help you give around here) can you download the database from us and see whats the matter?

I know that's a lot to ask for be we're both living in Canada and we both love Toronto FC, but the MLS is a rubbish league in terms of rules and salary cap and we'd love to live "The Canadian Dream" of a footballers world.

Thanks, much appreciated.
Miguel.

that seems a very strange problem to have :S, i have done plenty of league swaps in the past and not once have i came across this problem :S i have encountered problems with swapping the Hong Kong league in the past though.

If you look at the other topic on this custom database forum that I replied to, you'll see someone with the exact same problem.

Would it be crazy to ask you to do it for us roughly, like just swap a 10 team league into Canadian nationality and then all we have to do is rename the team?

I understand if you don't have the time, but it would be easier than trying to pinpoint the cause.

Thanks so much Fedo.

Thanks for helping out desribing the problem Rabid, and I agree that would be awesome Fedo (doing a swap). But as Rabid said, if you do not have the time, no hard feelings.

Default More League Swap Problems

Hey!

I've tried to swap the Dutch leagues into other nations' leagues, as to create a league system that allows promotion/relegation with lower divisions.

I've tried several leagues (incl. Belgium, Portugal, Poland, Czech Rep.) I've followed the instructions exactly as it was written here, but nothing seemed to work correctly - it's completely frustrating I can tell you...

All the leagues would start up correctly, but there's no list of next fixtures and consequently I cannot play any games but friendlies.

Any help would be hugely appreciated here...
