The public edition comes with 2 banner ads and an offer screen during installation. The "g" edition has no ads nor offers during installation. In order to get the "g" edition, you need to donate to Eugene. Refer to Genie Scout 15g FAQ if you have further questions.
Apart from no ads, the "g" edition has 5 extra features:
- Search by role/duty: New tab in advanced search popup that allows searching by role and duty - plus sortable columns of each of them in search results
- Probability of Development: A statistically based model that will show the probability of reaching theoretical maximum of players ability
- Progress Rate:
Shows the predicted speed of player's development, depending on his ambition, determination, professionalism etc
- Support for Graphics:
If you have custom facepacks and/or kitpacks added to your FM, it should show on player and team profiles on GS
- Top Players Lists: Automatically generated lists for best players, most promising and top bargains in the world, by position
Please note that during the first run of "g" edition it may take a few minutes to create the graphic packs cache. Next time it will be loaded much faster.
DELIVERY OF THE 'G' EDITION: Eugene has automatized the process of distribution for the "g" edition, so you will have to wait just a few minutes before you receive a download link and a key file. But only if they have sent correct contact email, correct Unique ID alongside your donation.
Make sure you check your Spam folder too.
It might take up to 24 hours though. In case of problem with your donation, please contact Eugene using the email address you'll see in the message after donation.

Neither links work for me it keeps saying network error
please help
List of changes:
@GeneralCarnageX: Try this link.
@cfcx1985: Are you referring to the public edition (download button on this very page) or to the "g" edition?
@msakyuz: Sale value is a known issue (please read the article above more carefully), it's not accurate and it won't be. SI have made it impossible for tool authors to calculate this the last couple of years.
@JohnRust909: Open Genie Scout. Fire up its main menu (click on the big circle with the logo to the top left). Then go to Help > Check for new version.
Can you tell us when the new version for version 15.2.1 will be availble?
Best regards
I'm a "g" version user.
I think fm has updated last night or today. Because yesterday i could use the genie scout, but today it says that my version of fm is not supported. (15.2.1f583543).
Do i have a specific problem or has the fm updated?
Thanks.
@fmfmfm: Norton detects plenty of false positives. Here's the scan report by virustotal. As you can see, only Nod32 detects something called Somoto. That is actually the name of the ad agency we use to monetize the public edition for the GS author and it might (depending on country) show 1 offer at the beginning of installation, which you can "Skip" if you don't want it.
@viscabarca54: Possibly a momentary problem with our download server. Try again please.
Norton actually deletes it and tells me its not safe.
It doesn't even let me trust it or anything.
It told me the last version had a Trojan in it but still let me use the program once it had removed it.
Is this because this is home made software it doesn't like it?
thanks
Ricky
