FM 2014 Tools - FM Editor Live 2014
FM Editor Live 2014 is a simple real time editor for Football Manager 2014 that allows you to edit data of your loaded FM14 save-game on the fly. FMEL is the only real-time editor that works with the FMC mode, and the only one that is free to use.

FMEL 2013 was released last February and it was the only free real-time editor for FM13. Its simplicity, speed and flawless functionality made it popular fast; counting over 250,000 downloads to this day. These characteristics remain in this new FM14 compatible version.

FMEL is exclusively available from fmscout.com

Redistribution Policy:

Patch 14.3.1 or Patch 14.3.0 (International)

Features

FMEL allows you to search for the club, person or stadium of your choice and edit:

Clubs
  • Reputation
  • Chairman Status
  • Training Facilities
  • Youth Facilities
  • Junior Coaching
  • Youth Recruitment Network
  • Transfer Budgets (Season and Remaining)
  • Wage Budget
  • Maximum Wage
  • Overall Balance
  • Kit Colors (icon, shorts, socks, text, shirt)
  • Heal Team / Destroy Team *

Persons
  • Heal / Destroy (condition, jadedness)
  • Birthday
  • Nationality
  • Height / Weight
  • Foot
  • CA / PA
  • Fitness / Match Fitness / Jadedness / Condition
  • Reputation (Current, Home, World)
  • Positions
  • Contracts (wage and end date)
  • Relations
  • Heal / Destroy *
  • Attributes (view only)

Stadiums
  • Name
  • Capacity
  • Seating Capacity
  • Expansion Capacity

* Heal not only heals injuries but also changes the player's condition to 100% and clears his jadedness. Destroy is the exact opposite.

FMEL is a simple editor that allows you to quickly adjust information of clubs, persons and stadiums. It should be safe to use it, but at any case make sure to keep a backup of your savegame before using.

How to use

1. Extract the downloaded FMELv2.0.zip in a folder of your choice.

2. Run Football Manager 2014, and load your save game (or start a new one).

3. Run FMEditorLive.exe (ALT+TAB to desktop first if you're running FM full screen).

4. Click the "Load Game" button.

5. Enter club's name in the Search input box and hit Enter.



6. Double-click on the club's row. Edit what you wish in the 4 tabs available (Information, Finances, Kits, Teams) and click Save.






Double-click on the person's row. Edit what you like and click Save.







Double-click on the stadium's row. Edit what you like and click Save.




Known Issues

If you close FM14 before FMEL14, the app will crash and trigger error popups. To avoid this, please close FMEL14 before closing FM14. Otherwise, you'll have to terminate the FMEL process using Windows Task Manager.

    @Stam: I've only tested it with players so sorry I cannot be more specific. All I can say this is happening ONLY with my reserve team with Sao Paulo.
  • phnompenhandy's avatar
    @ Stam - altho I'm in Aug 2013, the '-1' problem could include regens. Can you fix that? Because I'm an amateur team in a lower-league edited file. However, I just checked and it happens with George Cole, who is a real youth in Chelsea's U18s.

    The 'DataFridView' problem - FM is open while I'm testing FMEL 2.1
  • aleksa_inter's avatar
    You still do not understand what is the problem.
    At each Saving when editing players attributes to shift one down. In my case, these are the attributes of a long throw to the technique. For instance:
    long-throw 12
    marking 17
    passing 10
    penalty taking 8
    tackling 16
    technique 11
    after Saving:
    long throw ? (random attribute is different for each player)
    marking 12
    passing 17
    penalty taking 10
    tackling 8
    technique 16
    After another saving:
    A long throw ?
    marking ? (both questionnaires are the same attributes)
    passing 12
    penalty taking 17
    Tackling 10
    techniques 8
    Other attributes are not changed.
    This is in my case. Is there a solution to the problem without having to wait for the next version? I hope that you realize what the problem is.

    I'm testing a little bit.

    I gave my club 2m euro. Then there appears a message that says our club gained 560 million ...

    Editing youth recruitment / coaching does not work for playable teams(teams in leagues loaded). For nonplayable clubs it does. Example it wouldn't work in the czech first and second league. If u edit the most likely team to get promoted from the third league it works and doesn't change if the team gets promoted to the second league. Hope i made myself clearer :)
  • Andrizovic's avatar
    Just having the same problem.

    I have a MC who's passing was 16. He had an injury and his passing went to 13. So i wanted to upgrade it a little bit and changed it back to 16. When i do this, his passing becomes 10 and other stats randomize.

    @phnompenhandy: Are these players real or newgens? It's a known issue to be unable to edit entities of unplayable teams, but for U18 squads of playable teams that shouldn't happen. "DateGridView" error is triggered when FMEL cannot read from memory anymore (e.g. if you close FM14 before closing FMEL).
  • phnompenhandy's avatar
    Re. the 'Value -1' bug - I've just started a new career, in August 2013. I'm seeing it with some Liverpool and Chelsea u18s, and many younger players in Tier 6 in England and tier 4 in Scotland. Also all players in unplayable teams. I'm using an add-on league file (Tier 8 in Scotland) and can't use it at all for my squad.

    With staff, they seem to be okay in playable teams but when I tried to bring one up in an unplayable team I got a new error with screens popping up that you can't kill, referring to "DateGridView'.

    Now that we have a working 14.3.1 version for FMEL, we can focus on bug fixing for the next version. I'm hoping we'll be able to fix any inconsistencies by the weekend and pack a more stable version for you next week.

    @wiregn: We haven't had much time to test the new version as we've been stressed to release it asap. I can confirm there's a bug with attributes dropping when changing (raising even) CA/PA. Normally attributes should be affected by a CA change, but for PA they shouldn't.

    @nikospkrk: You didn't explain when exactly this is happening. For players only? For staff too?

    @Warfare21: What's Brasfoot? If it's a club in-game, you can edit whatever FMEL can edit for clubs...

    @RadiatorPie: Which players are causing this error? Are they newgen/regen players?

    @linie: I don't understand the problem here. Does editing of youth recruitment / coaching work for you or not? We have nothing on ticket price at the moment.
  • wiregn's avatar
    When I change the PA on one player his stats changes completely,like from having 15 in finishing to 5 in finishing and then tackling increases from 8 to 14
  • nikospkrk's avatar
    First of all thanks for updating this tool!
    Second of all as @RadiatorPie reported I am facing LOTS of "System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Value of '-1' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum'." exceptions. Looks like a Windows.Form value issue set to -1, maybe a quick test before setting it could solve this? (although as I have no idea how this is coded this -1 value might mean a much more complicated issue).

    Here's the report (minus unless info like assemblies) :

    ************** Exception Text **************
    System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Value of '-1' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum'.
    Parameter name: Value
    at System.Windows.Forms.NumericUpDown.set_Value(Decimal value)
    at FMEditorLive.frmPerson.RefreshControls()
    at FMEditorLive.frmPerson..ctor(Person person)

    at System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView.OnCellDoubleClick(DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
    at System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView.OnDoubleClick(EventArgs e)
    at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks)

    at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
    at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

    Hope this helps!

    Can I edit one club like brasfoot?
  • RadiatorPie's avatar
    Having trouble bringing up individual player profiles in the editor. Had occasional problems before but now the error is happening every time.
    Running 14.3.1 of legit FM14 and V2.1 of FMEL2014.
    Error message says:
    Unhandled exception has occurred in your application...
    Value of '-1' is not valid for 'Value'. 'Value' should be between 'Minimum' and 'Maximum'
    Parameter name: Value

    Any help would be much appreciated
  • linie's avatar
    @wiregn - stats shouldn't change if you only adjust PA. However they do if you change the CA to mach up with that number.

    @Stam - Great Work! The "Average attendance" is there two times written, shows proper value though. For the problem of the non adjustable youth recruitment/coaching, have you found a way? The only thing i noticed if one adjust those values for a non-league team it works.
    And could you guys pm me if you have found during the making of this fine tool some information related to ticket prices? Some nation just refuse to accept changes...I could go deeper into that topic, let me know. Help with that would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Download FMEL v2.1 - or just click the big red "Download Now" button at the top

    Please note it won't work with the special editions of the game (Russian, Korean, etc). If you have an edition of FM14 that FMEL14 doesn't work with and you want to help us add support for it, please read this.
  • easy1's avatar
    Thanks Marvels.
    Any idea about the release date?
  • marvels's avatar
    I'm currently working on a release that is compatible with the latest version of FM (14.3.1), those of you getting a warning saying its only compatible with version 14.3.0 is because you have updated your game.

    Please be patient.
