3D Stadium Megapack for FM26 (v1.1.4)

3D Stadium Megapack - Features:

The pack features an initial 120 stadiums from the top 5 European leagues, as well as certain stadiums from South America in it for the first version. With the update packs, there are more than 300 stadiums covered!
For more information, consult the google sheet (linked towards the end).

It contains a custom made crowd system which has seen a significant performance boost causing nearly no stutters or lag, even on older hardware. The animations might look janky, but they will be worked on during post release support and updates.

4K Textures - Every blade of grass, every seat, and every flag rendered in stunning ultra-high definition.

Mac Support
Unfortunately the file does not work for Macs.

Bugs:

Considering my level and skill in programming, it was only going to be natural that bugs would happen. I have not received any mention of either game breaking, save corrupting or other catastrophic errors. The bugs are relatively minor such as the position of the ball not always aligning or the referee and linesmen disappearing for some reason. Just like the animations of crowds, they will be ironed out over time.

If you come across a bug, feel free to let me know, but do so respectfully please 😀

3D Stadiums Megapack - FAQ:

- Will it be free?
Yes. 100%! If you see it somewhere and they're charging for it, step away, (kindly) report it to me and I will take the required actions if need be. My mods will always be free in its core, with you having the option to send a donation if you wish to do so!

- Will it work on FM24?
No. Plain and simple this will not work in FM24 due to the difference in game engine.

- Do I need to start a new save?
Nope! Fully compatible with your saves as well as match history. So if you won the final of the UEFA Champions League in your home stadium, you can replay it with your ground 😉 this is also the case for saves from FM23 and FM24.

Credits

Lastly, this has been a mammoth effort, but could not have been done without the support from everyone who has been involved. In the google sheet there is a credits page and if I forgot to put anyone on there, let me know and we'll get it sorted because this has been a huge collaborative effort from so many people on the background and the talented PES modders. Just insane!! You guys will all get a mention on here too.

Thank you everyone!

Consider Supporting

If you think to yourself is there a way to support this? Then a donation would help tremendously. Feel free to do so at either PayPal or Buymeacoffee, but only if you actually want to and can! Also consider supporting me on Patreon if that is more in your alley!
