FM Genie Scout has always been the world's favorite scout utility for Football Manager since its very first version.
We pride ourselves on exclusively releasing this legendary tool since 2009. As always we try our best to deliver Genie Scout to the world every year because your support to this project is outstanding.
Our aim is to update Genie Scout "g" edition to be usable for the FM20 Beta. Then fix any bugs reported. And ultimately try to add a couple of new features for Eugene's direct supporters.
FM Genie Scout 20 Release Date
Public edition
While we can't give you a firm date for the release of the public version, we should be able to release it towards early December. It usually arrives approximately 4-5 weeks after the "g" edition.Update: Eugene informed me that the public version should be ready by December 10th.
"g" edition
The "g" edition, which is the one for people who donate, is available since 31 October (beta 1). Current version (beta 14) is compatible with the 20.2.0 version (for FM20 and FM Touch).You can now donate for GS20 "g" edition.
Do not report bugs in the comments below!

The "g" edition is ad-free and has certain features compared to the public edition.
More specifically:
- GS Stats (new since 18g)
- In-Game Scout
- Role Ratings
- Probability of Development
- Progress Rate
- Top Players list
- Facepack/Kit support
Is there a way to test this "g" edition?
Yes! If you still have FM19 installed, you can try the "g" edition of Genie Scout 19 for free. It's not a trial, it's 100% unlocked forever.
How can I get Genie Scout 20 public edition asap?
The public edition of GS20 will be directly added to fmscout.com the moment it is ready.But we can notify you via email when this happens, so you won't miss time at all.
So make sure to sign up for our newsletter today.
It's expected for release sometime at the end of November; no specific time has been set though.
Discussion: FM Genie Scout for FM20 is confirmed

@ewieh: Probably tonight.
Tried your solution...still can't see the Cur A/Pot A in numbers, only what the scout's or coach's summary
''
What I did was unticking "Use caching to decrease page loading times" in preferences, after that I also reloaded the skin and it worked, I didn't restart Genie Scout or FM it was working right after this.''
I've tried retrying, aborting and ignoring but no luck.
Any ideas?
1) Eugene is still working on ironing out some minor issues. IGS seems to have inconsistent behavior for various users (e.g. not kicking in or causing unnecessary delays), but he's not able to replicate these problems.
2) The public version should be expected at any time during the first half of December.
3) As always you can find your unique ID from an older GS version, such as GS19, GS18, etc. Just make sure it's on the same computer.
4) When getting wrong data it means there's a problem with your key file. Most common scenario is that you changed computer, so the unique ID doesn't match the key. You simply need to email Eugene and pass him your new ID.
@teletubbies: About build 1013 leading to a 404 not found for some users was due to adding an extra download server to our setup and file didn't exist there for half a day. It was sorted.
@jeffchua: Any chance an antivirus/firewall app is causing this?
@vads: Yes.
@arm_devil_12: Grab the latest build 1013.
What happened?
and at some point with the updates GS gets it will be working again as intended
@sabor that might be an issue with your key file if you changed or reinstalled your computer the key is no longer vaild, normally the incorrect data is a key issue
Whats wrong?
@timun between now and January
@S14L download the free gs19 and install it co to the donate section and copy the id and use that one
@jeff try a reinstall or try to open it as admin
