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'm getting a 'Failed to load Football Manager data: Could not find a compatible Football Manager version' error message when clicking the Load icon (step 4), does it have something to do with today's game update?

  • jcshy's avatar
    The features lists awards & competitions as something that can be edited, how come they're greyed out?
  • naff123's avatar
    Right I'm going to bite.

    This is a really disingenuous money mining piece of crap it is not clearly stated that you MUST pay to use this.

    I am sick an tired of part time coders trying to exploit fans, Whatever happened to making Freeware Opensource Software for the benefit of the community?

    Seriously? It started when FMRTE got greedy in 2011 now we have this?

    I wouldn't mind if it was CLEARLY Stated on the top of this page

  • Tasos_tr86's avatar
    Hello, thanks for the update. What about changes in competitions?
  • catulo's avatar
    Can anyone tell me why in this FM i cant do any changes in-game like in FM2022?
    In FM 2022 in game we have a icon that we can make changes, in this FM we have to go to the Scout Editor.
  • kkk812's avatar
