You need to un-tick "Compress Save Games" in Preferences page and hit Confirm. After that, save your game again. Then load it up in Genie.
If error persists, please take the following actions:
* Upload your save game with the problem somewhere (FileFront, RapidShare, etc)
* Make a post on this forum section, explaining your problem and giving a link to your save game
thegreyham said on 2009-11-10 19:27

kraex said on 2009-11-11 04:05
I saved one of my earlier games uncompressed and the scout worked fine, so I'm guessing it's something with that save game, something that hasn't been seen yet.

I load the game but lag
Loading People and lag
why???
stam said on 2009-11-12 20:18
You don't expect a proper answer to this, do you?
Come on people, elaborate. Don't just post non-sense.
CommandoRick said on 2009-11-12 22:28
hey i posted earlier, i was just wondering if there is an expected timeframe for when this will be steam compatible?
Alcuith said on 2009-11-13 18:47
I'm having the same problem with my saved games from Steam version. Corrupt data etc. Is there an update coming?
stam said on 2009-11-13 20:37
There is no planned release date for next version. An update is coming, we can't know when at the moment. I'll ask Eugene for a rough timeframe now.
badtrip said on 2009-11-14 08:25
I've changed in edit player rating, current rating was more than potential rating.
Jakobbson said on 2009-11-14 11:27
When loading players it just stops responding??
anybody know why?
stam said on 2009-11-14 12:10
I wonder how many times I'm going to write this.
- While you are in FM, go to Preferences.
- Un-tick "Compress Save Games" and hit Confirm.
- Save your game AGAIN.
- Try to load your fresh save game on FM Genie Scout 10!
Jim1983 said on 2009-11-14 14:34
Hello...
I have tried all of the above to get the FM Genie Scout 10 working, but still no luck.
I have made sure the data is not compressed
i originally had Fm installed via steam and have now done the install the other way and can still not use it.
I have uploaded 2 saved files to the below location as they are both coming up with data corruption errors.
http://www.filefront.com/14922637/Arsenal1.fm
Not sure how you reply to these problems ?
faithless said on 2009-11-14 21:22
no club button? Why i can't access my team in genie scout, that sucks..
faithless said on 2009-11-14 21:26
ok i found it. It's little weird though cause it's like hidden :P
jonlanghoff said on 2009-11-15 12:18
Come on, Eugene! I can't play the game without your tool!
kraex said on 2009-11-16 03:08
hey i posted earlier, i was just wondering if there is an expected timeframe for when this will be steam compatible?
--------
I've used this to open savegames on the Steam version, so I wouldn't say it's "not Steam compatible" I have an issue with one of my later savegames not opening, but it doesn't seem to be related to being the Steam version. Try saving a brand new game and see if you can open it.
baekken said on 2009-11-16 14:16
Hey expert(s).
When I load my first save game in Genie there is no problem, but when I load it again after having saved it again in FM it suddenly doesn't work??!
How come?
From Baekken.
deek123 said on 2009-11-16 15:43
there seems to be a problem with the scottish league, if you have that selected, try again without it, seems to work for me.
baekken said on 2009-11-16 16:28
I tried without the scottish, but it didn't work.
It says somethinglike: Error loading Entity Number: 1188
Database Version: 1356
Contract data seems to be corrupt
lfcjt said on 2009-11-18 03:14

stam said on 2009-11-18 09:10

jonlanghoff said on 2009-11-18 12:21
Any guess on when the next release will be?
stam said on 2009-11-18 14:09
Check the news on homepage, we have posted an update with news from Eugene.

kenny3 said on 2009-11-23 18:35
thanks eugene, thanks stam.. great job!
kraex said on 2009-11-24 04:52
Excellent. Works with all my savegames now. Btw, I use Steam, there was some question if it worked with Steam. Think it had nothing to do with Steam, my problem was the huge save files. RC2 working great, thanks much.
test said on 2009-11-24 10:55
works great now
thx
dave said on 2009-11-24 16:59
where can i download genie rc 2, tried to download it from filefront and keeps coming up invalid torrent. any other sites, help
stam said on 2009-11-24 19:46
Invalid torrent? What are you talking about mate?
Just click on the download link at the top of page (the one in black and caps).
dave said on 2009-11-24 20:13
tried again to download from link, takes me to filefront, when i download it and then try to open it, it says unable to load, invalid torrent, i not to clued up with computers thats why i need help, thanks
kraex said on 2009-11-25 00:51
Dunno what you're doing wrong, but try this direct link.
http://download727.filefront.com/zvoxzxtq8zyg/14982361/fm_genie_scout_10_rc2.rar
I'm not sure how long that session is valid, so the link may not work indefinitely. But basically, if you're clicking on the link above (http://www.fmscout.com/i-757-FM-Genie-Scout-10/a-dl.html) you should see a big orange button that says "Download Now" and should not take you to a torrent.
dave said on 2009-11-25 12:47
tried the link, download now and it coming up as a torrent download which will not load. i downloaded genie 10 rc1 when it came out with no problems apart not working after a season, that downloaded as a rar file so dont know why keep getting a torrent file with this 1. do i need to update my win rar program?. thanks!
dave said on 2009-11-25 17:50
i saved file to my win rar folder, and it working from there, thanks folks! ..happy days..
gstarblues said on 2009-11-28 01:38
I love FMScout but havng problems installing the new version (RC 2) when I click to downlaod it it will only let me download it as a .rar file so when I go into my comp says I dont have a prog to extract it.
Is there a .zip version? Or can some1 explain how i use the .rar, that would be great! thanks!
stam said on 2009-11-28 01:57
Use WinRAR, it's a free utility. I forgot to mention it on the instructions above, as RC 1 was in .zip format.
gok10 said on 2009-11-28 11:06
I downloaded Rc2 version but It says something it is not legible but writes compress save game

Hello stam! Im sorry if this sounds stupid but could you please show me or tell me what i should download on rarlab.com to be able to run the new scout? I want a free version..
nalle said on 2009-11-30 13:46
i donwloaded it and got it working just fine, then started a new game and loaded it in genie, then i search for a player and tries to doubleclick him and it says "Can't allocate the DIB handle", what to do?

For people that can't get filefront to work (like me), I did some searching around the web and found this random upload on a (chinese?) site. Just press the utton with an arrow in the middle of the page:

wheni down load the file i cant open it, it say i need to choose a program to do it. not sure which program or how to get round it.
stam said on 2009-12-12 14:44
You need a utility to extract .rar archives, such as WinRAR.

Please help as i have only just started using scout genie and i absolutely love it, i miss it already and its been 1hr
deek123 said on 2009-12-18 22:41
you'll need to wait for Eugene to release a new 10.2 compatible version i'm afraid
stubz79 said on 2009-12-19 02:37
Damn!! Thanks deek123, i thought as much. How long would you think ill be waiting for that??
Needless to say i took my fm2010 off auto updae now!! lolz

stam said on 2009-12-19 21:46
yes, i do. but i don't want to bother him.
i'd probably expect next version sometime in january.

superdan1313 said on 2009-12-20 00:18
Man that sucks, that sucks hard. Guess all good things are worth waiting for though, thanks stam. BTW, do you know if there is any way of removing the patch without damaging a game\career that has been running it?

cutting my veins
lz do it quick

stubz79 said on 2009-12-20 03:03
Is there another programme that will do the same thing that will work for this new update??
superdan1313 said on 2009-12-20 03:06
nothing that I've tried works except the in-game hidden attribute viewer, which is useful but not a patch on genie scout. boo-hooing my little backside off!!
stubz79 said on 2009-12-20 03:53
by hidden attribute viewer do u mean when u start a new game and u uncheck the box for hiding the attributes or something else?
stam said on 2009-12-20 11:52

Right here goes! Eugene, my life has come to a halt without the genie in my life. All i want for christmas is my genie back, i have sent my letter to santa and i have been a very good boy this year
!! Will i have my present here on christmas day?? please
kraex said on 2009-12-24 22:32
Why don't you guys go pick up FMRTE and use it in the meantime. The search features in FMRTE are in no way as nice as the genie scout format, and there's no genie report, but it'll get you through the holidays and let Eugene enjoy his christmas. It's fully 10.2 compatible, and a new version was released today.
fmrte.com - check it out.
stubz79 said on 2009-12-25 15:37
well santa sucks, i didnt get my genie!

if eugene releases the genie scout nowadays we 'll wait again for january official update(10.3??) compatible genie scout.. why dont eugene publish the genie scout after january update released?? it will be more comfortable for eguene, i guess.. ha stam?
stam said on 2009-12-30 19:17
that's about right mate
kenny3 said on 2009-12-30 23:41
well, if it will be like the way i said how much do we wait for genie? when will be released?
rizmanz said on 2009-12-31 16:51
I'll think kenny3 got a point.. Let's eugene njoy his holidays... 4 all this while he's done a lot for us..nyway millions thanks Eugene cos make FM such a beautiful game...HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS...
superdan1313 said on 2010-01-01 00:06
so if there's a new january patch (10.3) coming, anyone know the date for that?
stam said on 2010-01-01 00:26
Probably February mate, if you realize that the main meaning of this patch is to cover the winter transfer window... which ends on the 31st of January.
Amaru said on 2010-01-02 01:56
Will there be a scout update for the 10.2 patch or will you just wait until the 10.3 update?? I wish i'd never installed 10.2 now!
kenny3 said on 2010-01-03 04:18
guys, we'll wait until genie for 10.3 patch released, i guess.
Jakobbson said on 2010-01-04 16:40
You could just uninstall and then install by disc.

HSAjax said on 2010-01-05 01:30
Problem is that you can not load your game any more after re-installing the game, because your saved game will only work with FM 10.2
superdan1313 said on 2010-01-05 01:32
Yup, it's a real pain in the backside, Goddamn SI, if they got the game right before they released it we wouldn't have these problems!!
John Anacall said on 2010-01-07 02:26
Oh god I can't live without genie scout, I need one for the new patch
superdan1313 said on 2010-01-07 19:15
It's incredible how crazy people are going about Genie being delayed, hell I love it too, but I can remember a time when I loved the game without any of these extra programs!
crypton777 said on 2010-01-09 03:11
Hello.. great worj guyz... but i have a problem... and i want your help... I just downloaded the 2 versions of rc1 and rc2... All the above worked great but when i do a double-click on a player it doesnt show me his attribiutes... this is the 1st time tha it happens t me at genie's scout's! plz help.
crypton777 said on 2010-01-09 04:16
I think that it is a problem with the language because the only language that it opens me the window with the attribiutes of each player is the chinese.... If someone have an idea or solution...
pierrecrew33 said on 2010-01-12 21:04
Just a stupid question :
Wich sort of attributes are you looking to know if a player is a good one or not?? The "CA" ; "PA" or "best rating" ; "potential rating" ???Or twice??
stam said on 2010-01-12 21:08
"is" = best rating / "will be" potential rating
The ability is just an indication, not a proof. You may find players with limited ability that can be better than others with high ability. It's also very important to check the player attributes for consistency and important matches.

Hi, I wanted to know because when the information is exported to the file ".csv" not this one delimited with comma as, but this one separated in cells.

Thank you Genie! You're awesome!
k020786 said on 2010-01-13 10:04
Hi everyone,

I just downloaded the latest version of FM Genie Scout for my FM2010 version 10.2. But I can't run the program. Even when I want to run it as an administrator, it can't be open. Windows will be closing the program. Can anyone help me? Thanks..
FM_MUFC said on 2010-01-14 04:03
Not met a bug yet, so good work Eugene,
Genie Scout = FM's Google
uncomfortablydumb said on 2010-01-15 20:50

sosti said on 2010-01-16 17:03
i log on to this site EVERYDAY and sometimes more then once to check for a new update - non yet.
someone said it would be on by the weekend but not published yet. Im looking forward to the new version desperately....
stam said on 2010-01-16 18:54
what are you talking about?
Fraank said on 2010-01-17 18:50
Pretty soon SI will launch their new patch, can we still expect a new version of Genie Scout which is compatible with 10.3 in the near feature? And if so, I presume/hope within about a month...?
Keep up the good work!
stam said on 2010-01-17 19:19
pretty soon is at least early february i guess. yes, i believe we should expect a new genie scout version after 10.3, but i'm not going to give any indication about a possible release date; when it's ready it will be out.
mizie said on 2010-01-18 11:30
Genie! Thats ok to place ads into the scout but
the way they are working is pretty annoying.
I mean when I check a player a window opens with your sponsors. If it would happen only one time, thats ok, but it's happening every time I check a player's attributes and opens a lot of windows in my browser.
stam said on 2010-01-19 13:15
donate to get the ad-free version then
JMG.88 said on 2010-01-22 07:04
I'm no genious at this but i spent the last 2 hours trying to download this, can someone point out what RC1, RC2 and the V1 differences are, i tried downloading 2...assuming it was the most up to date with the 2nd patch...didn't work, i kept getting an error, so tried RC1, same thing, tried downloading the V1..and it never worked...so i deleted it yet again and tried the top link again and it's working fine.
I run the game through steam, so it is compatible, it does take it's time loading results but that's just my save game since i've seleced more than 40 leagues in 12 different nations ;)...as for the adds it's not been a big problem yet.
I have a lot of respect for the creator of this, it sounds crap giving thanks when i should be donating, but i will eventually ;).
ron1hy said on 2010-01-24 12:22
Hi stam. How accurate is the positional rating in fm genie scout?
stam said on 2010-01-24 13:46
is that a real question? come on mate! you cannot see for yourself how accurate it is? if I tell you it's perfectly accurate, are you going to take my word for it?
anyway, it's pretty much accurate for me, but is not the only thing that matters for a good player. consistency, important matches, injury proneness, natural position, adaptability to team's tactics and happiness level are some of the aspects you should pay attention to.
ron1hy said on 2010-01-24 13:54
Look, i didn't mean to annoy you. I just wanted some clarification on the subject. I completely forgot about the other attributes. And of course you are right about it. What's the point of having a world class striker that's always injured or cannot live up to the big matches????? Thanks

SEE WHEN I USE FM SCOUT GENIE DOES IT JUST SEARCH FOR PLAYERS THAT YOUR TEAM COULD SIGN OR IS IT EVERY PLAYER WITH THAT ABILITY
stam said on 2010-02-14 01:00
no mate, just players with that ability.
if you want to cross-check for players that you could sign, export the shortlist from genie -> import shortlist in fm and use custom filter "ask assistant to filter out unrealistic targets".
jackgooner87 said on 2010-02-24 22:44
stam how do you export the shortlist from genie and import it on fm? sorry for being so silly!!
Amaru said on 2010-03-01 23:01
Hi stam,
When can we expect the 10.3 patch update of Genie scout? Cant wait!
vilela1978 said on 2010-03-08 02:33

I do understand that Eugene has put a lots of work into this project and I do appreciate it.
So with the max respect, how is it possible to FMRTE to update their program that fast in contrast to Eugene?

stam said on 2010-03-15 13:36
@ mizie:
Hi mate, I understand your complaint, but consider this: Eugene is a married man with a little daughter and a regular day job.
@ johhnykou21:
Πιστεύω θα βγει σύντομα (σχετικό, αλλά μάλλον πριν το Πάσχα). Δεν εξαρτάται από μένα, ο Eugene το ετοιμάζει, όλοι αναμένουμε καρτερικά. Σχετικά με το αν μπορούμε να κάνουμε την τελευταία έκδοση να δουλέψει με το 10.3, αμφιβάλλω.

Thank you in advance and keep the good work up!
I will only start my game once that version becomes available...
Ciao,

@ xoninha:
I'm waiting for the new version to arrive in my inbox, so I can publish it here. I don't want to bother Eugene with questions, as I realize he's on a busy schedule. Though I received an email from him saying he's working on it.
I asked for a rough timeline (e.g. before April?) as people are checking back daily in despair, but I didn't get a reply just yet. I'll let you guys know if I do.

Yes- same error here too. Seems that rather than a few people having an issue, it's got a bit of buggy code.

Hi there,

"Error Loading Entity Number: 30
File Position: 13577827
Database Version: 1404
Person Data seems to be corrupt."
Tried running some older savegames with patch 1&2 and they seem to be working fine with the latest geniescout. Have not tampered with the gamedata by using the real time editor or anything else but patch 3 versions will just not run with the new geniescout.
Hope it can all be sorted soon. Appreciate it!
Cheers!

No update available mate; the last email I received from Eugene was saying that he hasn't solved the freeze/crash problems and doesn't know what's wrong with that. Apparently, he didn't abandon the work for a next version, but no one knows if and when there will be that next version.

I really hope he launches a final version with all the errors and bugs fixed, i downloaded it and sent a donation but cannot use it due to errors i have posted in the official forum, same as a few others.
have kind of given up playing FM now as its really hard to find good young players to join my non league team.. have been playing starters orders 4 instead!

Works like a charm, no bugs/errors/failures with the 10.3 patch. Clean install of fm, clean update to 10.3 and unrar on desktop, can load my uncompressed savegames and search at free will in genie, thanks! finally i can play!
stam said on 2010-04-13 14:53
should work with compressed savegames as well mate

To fix the current genie problem.

If you update FlashUtil9e.exe at
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\
Double click it, install.
Run Genie scout as normal.
This should work. Work for me.
Thanks

PLEASE HELP! When im "inside" FM and playing i want to go out of the game for a short while to use the scout. But im not able to exit the game! The windows-button works fine, but not on FM! Is it because of the new patch?? what should i do?

Its been six days since I made the donation and I still haven't received any link to the ad-free version.I've emailed genie@i.ua several times with no reply. What is the minimum suggested donation?

hey guys what is this?

is it a program what shows you player value and the amount of money to purchase them?
stam said on 2010-09-02 18:08
Yes mate, just try it
It doesn't require any installation, just follow the simple how to run steps.
