  • Dddwww83's avatar
    I see Marc Guéhi to Man City and transfers dont happen the fm update , so guess what im trying to say is with your files and the latest 26.1.3 database which ive a game already started best continuie with that or add Pros update with your files or the one below with your files? guess im trying to combine your files with a db without crashing and over writing
  • SirTAVARES's avatar

    Hi Sir Tavares,

    I’ve downloaded and paid for the Patreon content and I can now see JJ Gabriel at Man United – great stuff!

    My only issue is that it doesn’t seem to include the latest transfers, for example Marc Guéhi to Man City. I’ve added your files to the normal FM updated database from a few days ago.

    Do you have any recommendations on how to fix this?


    or how do i add this with pros update or any recomended ? as i was like i could only add a few files ?


    Thanks!

    v2.9 Introduces DT11 - faces.

    So now you can choose between cut-out photos and DF11 style photos (experimental, won't be perfect). Feedback will be necessary or else i'll just focus on cut-out photos :D
