Football Manager 2024 Data Updates - FM24 Increase Realism Megapack by Daveincid
Hello everyone!

I’m excited to present the latest version of my "Increase Realism" Megapack for FM24.



The Football Manager database is incredibly detailed but still leaves room for significant improvement in key areas. The "Increase Realism" Megapack has been created to address those gaps. It is the result of years of research and constant refinement and aims to make the in-game football world more authentic, dynamic, and logical in every aspect.

This pack does not alter the core structure of the game but enhances all relevant parameters — from financial systems and club data to player development, transfer behavior, and international competitions.

Key highlights include:

Deep structural changes in talent development for every nation, based on numerous indicators such as HDI, population size, average attendances, and financial resources. Realistic club finances, market values, wage structures, and sponsorship logic. Overhauled transfer preferences for clubs and nations, making transfer decisions far more realistic and strategic. Missing data for over 1,500 clubs added, including stadiums, rivalries, founding years, and city coordinates. Climate impact integration and adjustments to injury probability for more realistic squad management challenges. Refined referee behavior to better reflect in-game realism. Additions of international competitions such as the FIFA U17 World Cup and Blue Stars Youth Cup. Increased difficulty and long-term balancing, ensuring more challenging and dynamic saves.

This project is updated every month to stay aligned with real-world developments and community feedback. Early access and exclusive content are available on Patreon. The free public release is usually on the first Friday of every month.

    I only do not use some files that increase difficulty and are related to potential, player contracts or staff, and yet the AI ​​results are too low at the beginning of the season. I have the impression that larger differences in results or even the number of goals in individual matches depended on the reputation of the given clubs, which takes away from the immersion. It may also be related to mods with adding leagues or fM 25, but as I wrote, these similar mods are not used by me.

    Will FM24 NextGen Wonderkids Database | Potential FM25 Wonderkids from Passion4fm site clash with yours (especially CA/PA ADJUSTMENTS + NEW WONDERKIDS & OTHERS NEW)? I believe that yours and those of Passion4fm might have caused double names?

    I'm curious about Casado and Raphinha's profiles
  • matirix20's avatar
    When will the December update be available?
  • WindyFlag's avatar
    Thank you for your continued updates. However, I think I'm having issues with the financial and sponsorship databases. In September's update, most Belgian league teams had a deficit in their finances, even Anderlecht had a loss of over 20 million euros, which resulted in most teams having negative transfer funds. So I updated the October database and avoided selecting "Financial Balance" when starting the game. After starting a new game, I noticed that the sponsorship in the English League One and League Two was generally too high. Many teams are not facing financial difficulties, such as Wigan Athletic, who achieved a mid-table result, but were able to receive 7.5 million pounds in sponsorship in just one season and therefore receive 3 million pounds in transfer fees. This seems very unrealistic or counterintuitive to me. Do English League One and League Two teams really get such high sponsorship? I don't know if it has been improved in the November update. If not, could it be addressed in a future update? Thank you again.

    Hi, can we play this with fm25 dlc database?

    Hi.. So i need to start a new game after any update?

    @jmh259
    "Basic french" isn't the same as "fluent french" + drawing conclusions with just checking data in the editor isn't always a good idea. Beside that, read the main post where and how to leave feedback, thanks
  • jmh259's avatar
    Forgive me if I misinterpreted what the editor data means in game, but I was just having a look around in the pre-game editor and was a bit shocked to see that in each local region in England, the language of French was set to 23%!!! Do you not think that this is incredibly high that 23% of people in these regions know French? I know there was an old survey saying that 23% of people said they knew basic french to hold a conversation but I sincerely doubt that figure, as it was clarified by the people themselves as opposed to some impartial test. I just feel like starting a save with this high a level will feel unrealistic as a quarter of all regens in England will know French (if this is what it means). As a French person living England, I definitely feel like this is way too high.

    Hi, thanks for the update.

    One question, in the "24_25 season fixes" folder there are 3 files, however, the description advises to delete only the old CLUB REPUTATION, can I also delete olds CLUB FINANCES and New Players?
  • matirix20's avatar
    I didn't mean anything bad. I'm just surprised that his profile hasn't been improved.

    best regards and thanks for all the updates.
