Bug Reports

During closed beta stage for supporters, Eugene fixed most bugs that came to surface. As a result, the public edition should be quite stable from its very first version.

Should you find a bug, please report it to the Genie Scout forum.
Read this before submitting any bugs!

Known issue: Sale value for players is not accurate and sadly we have no way of making it work as it used to be before GS13.


Any comment including bug report posted on this page will be removed on sight!

EXPORTING DATA:
Please understand it is forbidden by the EULA from SI and SEGA to export all the data from the results. You should be able to export only basic information such as player name, club, age, etc.

    hello how much time take it before you get the key to geniescout 17 i donate yesterday but receive nothing yet
  • player12345's avatar
    the latest genie doesn't even work correctly, the min release clause is a total waste of time as it doesn't even show the correct min release clause on a player, shortlists don't work as they cant save them and then open them in game???
  • i_diavolorosso's avatar
    Can anyone confirm whether the latest Genie work here? I can't seem to import shortlist into the game (and I think some people have the same problem as well). Thanks!
  • Jeep91's avatar
    I love genie, thanks so much E!
    EDIT: I went to donate to help you out but it says:
    An unexpected error occurred while communicating with PayPal.

    Guys i can't find a way to update FMGS17 with FM... I try to "check for updates" but it says i have the latest version even if it's the 17.0.1 .Any ideas?
  • Yespy's avatar
    Is there a way to filter by local region?
  • entryway's avatar

  • jimdabod's avatar
    my update for version 17.2.0f914093 (m.e. v1703), my Genie doesnt work still, its a windows based laptop im playing on ive tried installing again and nothing! please help!
  • additiveandy's avatar
    You guys never fail to impress. Thanks for the updated version! FM would be rather dull without you!! ;-)
  • ReusGod's avatar
    With this new version, when I double click a player or a club, no popup window appears. This way I can't see any details regarding a player or even a club.
    How can I solve this problem?
  • Stam's avatar
    New version now available. It should work with FM Touch 17.2 and in theory the issues with app not responding when loading as well as shortlist import must be fixed.
  • rdmagic's avatar
    my update for version 17.2.0f914093 (m.e. v1703), my Genie dont work... is there anything i can do to make it?
  • pauloaugust0's avatar
    Not play on the touch ... my problem is with the "normal" version
  • Stam's avatar
    I'm guessing those complaining are on FM Touch, which was updated yesterday (after GS17 issued new version for FM 17.2.0). It's annoying that SI don't sync patch release for both FM and FM Touch.

    I've alerted Eugene about it and also reminded him about the shortlist problem. Hopefully he can prepare a new version soon.

    "I downloaded the 17.2.0 compatible version yesterday before I updated FM, but it worked fine. This morning I updated FM and now Genie Scout returns a message of "Your game data is not found". I tried resaving the game, restarting Genie Scout and reloading Genie Scout all to no avail. Any ideas?"
    I have the same problem. I am using 64 bit windows. Could it be the reason? Please help
