FMSE Features

FMSE23 is packed with a plethora of options and running lightning fast. The focus is on the editing side of things. The scouting capabilities are limited. For more advanced scouting, it's recommended to try Genie Scout 23.

Whenever there's a new official patch out, we'll make an effort to update FMSE asap. And while update time is dependent on external factors (such as patch complexity), we'll do our best to deliver updates as quickly as possible.



Here's an overview of the key features...

Unsackable
Become unsackable! No matter what happens, the board will never fire you. Have no fear of getting sacked ever again!
Nation Editing
Edit Nation general data, teams, Kits and Agreements. For example, you can disable Brexit by adding England back to EU.
In-Game Assistant
See hidden player attributes, CA/PA & actual left/right foot values right in the game (attributes screen). This is an exclusive feature no other tool for Windows is offering!
Edit Club Finances
Edit all kinds of club finances, such as budgets, ticket prices, sugar daddy, sponsors, debts and more.
Edit Club Info
Fiddle with year founded, facilities, youth recruitment, morale, attendances.
Edit Players
A vast amount of player details can be edited, including value, all attributes, abilities, contract data, reputation, positions, preferred moves and so on. You can also heal injuries, destroy a player (fitness to 1%) and remove bans.
Freeze Player Attributes
You can now freeze attributes so they remain unaffected by CA, PA or training.
Edit Staff
Scout for and Edit Non-Playing staff like Coaches, Assistant Managers, etc.
Mass Edit Teams
Quick-actions to Heal Team, Remove Unhappy, Remove Bans and Destroy Team.
Edit Club Kits
Change kit style and colours every new season and see these changes apply to the 3D match as well!
Edit Cities
Edit city details such as coordinates, attraction, altitude and amount of inhabitants.
Mass Edit Players, Staff, Clubs, Awards & Cities
Advanced Mass Edit dedicated panel you can access after selecting 2 or more entities in search results. Multi-select entities using Shift-click, Ctrl-click or click-drag.

FMSE doesn't work with network saves, and it never will. Because that'd turn it into a hacking tool and we don't want that.

    I had to sign up to this website to write here because I had it up to here with Thanos. I bought this software first week of the release. It was one of the worst purchases of my life due to developer not deserving my hard earned money. I want to say: "Stop" defending a guy who doesn't care about purchasers of his product. Updates are always late (not just once) plus it was promised that more features will be added after the release such as Competitions and Awards (states they are not yet available). Those were lies no feature has been added and many of the features are buggy as hell such as changing players teams or editing second nationality. If you are thinking about purchasing this product. Do yourself a favor and buy the official editor and use genie scout (for free) for scouting purposes.

    Well i just bought the editor. Shame it take so long to update FMRTE is working for days now and the in game editor is no brainer. When i read all the coments i see it's not a one time isue. On FM24 probably going to FMRTE ou in game. Shame it was such a good software but you pay to miss the majority of post update days .

    every update its the same story... "Will be done this afternoon" 3 days later you come back and nothing changed. Im glad that I got annoyed about this some time ago and invested into FM Editor. You pay pretty much the same price and not have to worry about any waiting than you can use free version of FMScout only for scouting if you need or you are used to it. I suggest everyone doing this who is impatient like me and dont buy the excuses :)

    Quick status update: Thanos still hasn't returned my messages (since the 29th). I'll keep sending more while waiting for his reaction. I'll post another status update tonight, unless I hear back from him sooner.

    Please i need this to be updated, but waiting patiently... thanks for this masterpiece software :)
  • Stam's avatar
    I've notified Thanos about today's patch release (23.4.0) and waiting for his reaction. I'll keep sending him reminders and hoping he'll be able to prepare an updated version tonight.

    @danchik: After successful payment, you should receive a couple of emails. One of them must include a download link to your license file. You need to download that file and import it in the app.

    @qwert: Correct. The app is free to download/install/explore and use its scouting features. It requires a paid license to allow you to save your edits.

    @uzadegotone: Not sure I understand the question. Have you registered your license? If not, please see here.

    @surrutia: FMT version?
  • danchik4425's avatar
    Paid for the full version. No letters with a key or a full version of the application came to the mail. Looks like a scam. The specified mail (licenses appcake) is not answered.
  • qwert522's avatar
    Do I understand correctly that unless one buys a licence the "editor" does nothing to the save (whatever changes you introduces will not be saved)??
  • UZADEGOTONE's avatar
    OKAY i have the version provide here w my license but is BETA how supposed to make my license work?
  • surrutia's avatar
    when i try to load a game the app says that my fmt version is not compatible? why this happened???
  • step's avatar

  • Stam's avatar
    Still waiting for Thanos to provide the updated version for the 23.3.1 patch. I kept sending him reminders all day yesterday but didn't hear back. Hopefully today.

  • Foley's avatar
