FM 2016 Tools - FM Editor Live 2016
FM Editor Live 2016 is a simple real time editor for Football Manager 2016 that allows you to edit data of your loaded FM16 save-game on the fly. FMEL is the only real-time editor that works with the FM Touch mode.
The only FREE real-time editor for FM16.


FMEL is exclusively available from fmscout.com

Redistribution Policy:

People who want to put FM Editor Live 2016 on other sites, you may link back to this very page but you cannot host any files yourselves. Thank you!


This tool is released for FREE, as we feel you shouldn't be forced to pay for 3rd party tools of a game.

Released: 20 April 2016 - alpha version
Updated: 1 August 2016 - v1.0.1

Why did it take so long this time?

The work on FMEL 2016 started when FM16 Beta was made available. The plan was to code everything from scratch using an entirely different framework. A month's efforts were in vain as we encountered technical issues with the framework of choice. As a result we had to make a new choice and start all over again. Work and real life got in the way and postponed the development indefinitely. Around the end of February, svita (lead dev) confirmed that he could resume progress. After failing the deadline for a couple of times, we reached the second half of April and FMEL 2016 is ready in alpha state.

Alpha version disclaimer

Please note that this initial alpha version is more meant for testing, so please keep your expectations low. We decided to release it at its current state to show that FMEL is not dead (at least not yet) and to gather feedback for the next (possibly beta) version.

Requirements

.NET FRAMEWORK 4.5 (standalone offline installer) or higher
To find out if you have .NET Framework 4.5 installed, you can use Framework Detector (free tool). In theory, you'll need to download this only if you have Win XP; newer Windows should have that requirement covered by default.

► Patch 16.3.2, Patch 16.3.1 (International)
To use this version of FMEL, you must have your game updated with 16.3.2 or 16.3.1.

Microsoft Windows
Compatible with Windows XP (SP3), Vista, 7, 8, 10.
If you're looking for a similar tool for Mac, please check out MacAssistant RT for FM16 (another exclusive tool we release).

Features

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

Clubs
  • Transfer Budgets (Season and Remaining)
  • Wage Budget
  • Overall Balance

Persons (just Players in alpha version)
  • Heal (condition)
  • Birthday
  • Height / Weight
  • Current Ability / Potential Ability
  • Reputation (Current, Home, World)
  • Attributes *

* If you open the profile of the player you edit attributes of, you need to hit the 'continue' button in-game until it loads to the next point for the changes to take effect.

How to use

1. Extract the downloaded FMEditorLive2016a.zip and run the .exe file. Complete installation.

2. Run Football Manager 2016, and load your save game (or start a new one).

3. Run FM Editor Live 2016 (ALT+TAB to desktop first if you're running FM full screen).

4. Click the "Open" button.

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

6. Double-click on the player's row. Edit what you wish in the 2 tabs available (Information, Attributes) and click Apply.




7. Switch to the "Clubs" tab. Enter club's name in the Search input box and hit Enter.

8. Double-click on the club's row. Edit what you like within the Finances tab and click Apply.



Bug Reports

Even though we have tested this alpha version, we expect that you may be able to find bugs. If you do, please report it in the comments below. Describe the exact steps that triggered the bug (to help us replicate it). Also upload your save game to a free file hosting site (such as sendspace) and provide a link to it so we can test it directly. Thank you!

    hi guys,
    any news on when the beta is coming out ?
    by the way the current version works ok for me too just the odd player that you can't find.
    but lets all remember this guy does this for free.
    if your not happy go buy FMRTE!!!
  • paullt's avatar
    Generally works well for me, occassionally doesnt recognize a player but closing and reopening does the trick.

    Beaware!!! This will mess with your savegames big time - as soon as you use the economics part in your team!

    Lenzar, I'd like to introduce you to this site's code of ethics. Evidently, you need to read up on this.
  • Lenzar's avatar
    You're a fucking idiot. Why didn't you just update last year's code? Nobody asked you to re-code everything.
  • zamdrax's avatar
    I have windows 10 64 bit.......I am facing a lot of issues....Some players who have shorter names can't be searched in this. For example, if you make a search for kuki(malaga), it won't be able to find it but if i search luis zalazar, then it searches kuki. Luis Zalazar is the middle name of kuki. It is neither the first or last name. Also if i type the full name it does not search. For example, if i search for charlie taylor, it doesn't show. But if i search for charlie, then a list of names show up. Also sometimes, it doesnot load the game.

    Is there any way to edit nation rules with this? I want to remove the number of foreign players in the Israeli leagues...
  • Noobie2k7's avatar
    Yup, doesn't actually work for me either. Windows 7 64bit. Just constant 'unable to load game' messages whenever i try.

    The same problem, can't load
  • Begoner's avatar
    my fmel continues to fail, and i do all u told svita
  • RyanPayne31's avatar
    I have the same problem as @Juanrico

    When I change the balance of a team, it randomly generates the balance. Usually, it's in the minus billions.
  • Upklo's avatar
    I have the same problem, even with the administrator execute programs
  • titoncio's avatar
    Any way to edit Team Names live?
  • Lenzar's avatar
    Perhaps next time you'll actually just stick to updating the previous year's version.

    @svita

    Thank you for all of your works.
    I still can't use FMLE2016 ("Unable to load the game").
    I tried to run as "administrator". (Windows 7 64bit)
  • svita's avatar
    Thanks for the feedback, guys.

    @doctorhjorth: Very interesting. I have to admit that most testing is happening without processing the game much. I'll have to check a few things. I guess, the balance-bug should be related to that.

    Everyone else, testing and development is done at 64-bit, so obviously there is an issue with 32-bit counterpart of the tool. I'll have to investigate that as well.
  • Gabratta's avatar
    Still getting the "unable to load game" problem even with FMEL runned as administrator and with Windows Defender disabled. I have Windows 10 32bit
  • lemonchiffon's avatar
    yeah i still cant, run it as administrator, i dont have antivirus and im using windows 7 32 bit
  • Franz.PL's avatar
    I still have the same problem (unable to load the game), I tried to run as Administrator, disabled antivir (Windows 7 32 bit).
  • Juanrico's avatar
    The editor seems to be keeping the teams , whose I increased slightly, to now being billions of pounds in debt. It doesn't seem like what I'm changing in the editor is having any effect on the game. If I put a clubs balance to 0 and then continue and load in editor it will say minus a billion.

    It worked here, after running as administrator. Thank you.
  • doctorhjorth's avatar
    Hey i found something out, the first time i use the editor it work fine, but after a couple of day in game the editor doesn't work.. But if i close fm and start up again it works.. but after a couple days in game again it doesn't work
  • svita's avatar
    Ok, obviously you are all at the supported version, so there should be another problem.

    Please, everyone share your configuration (Windows version, 64-bit or 32-bit and if you use any specific antivirus or so).

    You may also try the followings (separately or combined):
    a. Try running FMEL as Administrator (right-click->"Run as Administrator")
    b. Try disabling your antivirus/antimalware or any other security related software

    Whatever happens (failure or success), please share your experience with us so we know what's going on.
