Football Manager 2024 Data Updates - FM24: FM26 CA-PA & Attributes (40K+ & Wonderkids)v2 by 5edt
Upgrade your FM24 players with Official FM26 Data!
🚀 5edT-FM24: Over 40k Players Updated with FM26 CA/PA & Attributes, 2k+ Positions, 6k+ Reputations! ⚽️🔥

About the Project
This is not a transfer update. Unlike standard updates, 5EDT focuses on the core of the game: Attributes, Current Ability (CA), Potential Ability (PA), Player Positions, Player Reputations. It is a direct conversion that brings official FM26 Player Profiles into FM24. No random edits—just 100% original data ported from the latest game to yours.

Change Log / Features
• CA/PA & Attributes: CA, PA, and Attributes of over 40,000 players have been converted and updated from FM26 to FM24.
• Player Positions: Positions for more than 2,000 players have been converted and updated from FM26 to FM24.
• Player Reputations: Player Reputations over 6,000 players have been converted and updated from FM26 to FM24.
• Club Budgets, Reputations & Morale: Club balances, transfer budgets, reputations, and morale have been converted from FM26 to FM24. Nearly 40 leagues have been completed, including some lower divisions of the major leagues.
• Player Salaries (wages): Player Salaries (wages) for over 40 leagues have been updated from FM26 to FM24. I believe it can work with other wage update files without any errors.
Optional Content
• Wonderkids & Missing Players: More than 400 Wonderkids and missing players from FM26 have been recreated and are available as an optional add-on. (And Faces)
• Retired Players: Players who retired or should no longer be in the database according to 2026 data have been updated/removed.

What makes this update special?

Authentic Attribute & CA/PA Conversion:
I have updated over 40,000 players using official FM26 data. Every attribute (Finishing, Passing, Pace, etc.) and CA/PA (Current/Potential Ability) has been meticulously converted to match the official FM26 database exactly.
Important Note & Recommendations:
This file focuses exclusively on Attributes, CA/PA, and New Wonderkids. It is designed to be fully compatible with your favorite transfer update patch. For the ultimate FM24 experience, I highly recommend using this database alongside a Transfer Update, but this is entirely optional—the choice is yours!

⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING:
Your game language must be set to English while creating a new career and selecting the files. If the language is not English during this setup phase, Player CA-PA, Attributes, etc. will not update. However, as soon as your save file is created, the language no longer matters; you can switch to any language you want and continue playing your save without any issues.
New Wonderkids are no longer included within the main files. They are now provided as a single, separate file.

How to Install:

LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT: Your game language MUST be set to English while creating a new career and selecting the editor files. If it’s not in English during setup, Player Attributes will NOT update. Once the save is created, you can switch back to any language you like; it will not affect your saved game.

Installation Guide
1. Download and Extract: Download the files and extract the contents.
2. You will find the main file (5edT_CA-PA_Attributes_EN) along with other optional files. You can install the 5edT_CA-PA_Attributes_EN file, plus any other .fmf files you wish to use.
3. Move the Files: Copy all selected .fmf files to the following folder: Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2024/editor data
4. Launch & Set Language: Open FM24 and ensure the game language is set to English.
5. Start a New Career: Select "New Career" and click on the Database menu in the top right corner.
6. Select Files: Ensure that 5edT_CA-PA_Attributes_EN and any other optional .fmf files you want to include are ticked/selected.
7. Final Step: After the career setup is complete and your game is saved, you can switch back to your preferred language (e.g., Turkish). You can load and play your save in any language from now on.

About Wonderkids&Missing: If you are using the Sortitoutsi FM24 transfer update or files that add new staff, do not use my Wonderkids mod simultaneously to avoid bugs and player duplicates. My mod is compatible with TheNotoriousPr0’s update. Essentially, avoid mixing my wonderkids mod with any other updates that include new wonderkids or staff.

Please note: The loading time for the league selection screen and the new career creation process (while the database is being initialized) may vary and could be extended depending on the number of changes and your computer's performance.

When starting a new career and selecting the editor files, please make sure your game language is set to English!

    @5edt Hello friend, nice job, could you send me a text file with the 300 new wonderkids you put so that I can delete them in the sourtitusi transfer file, because many people use sourtitusi files but there are duplicates.. Please send the file.
  • 5edt's avatar
    IMPORTANT: Before starting, backup your 'config.xml'! When pasting the data, make sure to follow the existing pattern and keep the XML structure intact; otherwise, it won't work.

    Now, copy everything from 'config_faceid_copy.xml' and paste it into the 'config.xml' located in: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\graphics\Faces\
    When you open the file, you will already see similar data lines; just add the new ones to look exactly like them. Matching the existing style is enough.
  • AlexGones's avatar
    I don't understand what I need to do with the “config_faceid_copy.xml” file to get the faces. Otherwise, everything is fine!

    Face pack for wonderkids and newly added players is now available. Installation guide included inside.
  • 5edt's avatar
    I checked my newly started career save in FM24, and Bryan Mbeumo's First Touch attribute is 17, consistent with FM26. I don't see any issues on my end. Any transfer patches or similar mods you're using might be causing this, as there’s no problem with my update.
  • M290's avatar
    Don't know if I'm doing something wrong but some of the player attributes aren't the exact same as the ones in fm26 (eg bryan mbeumo has 13 first touch when it should be 17). I downloaded both files and even if I use them by themselves this happens. Still, great work
  • zamdrax's avatar
    do you plan on making facepack for the wonderkids?
  • decio luz's avatar
    The changes you made are very good, unfortunately I won't use them, I would have had to change too many things which would have been a lot of work. Your work is very good, keep it up!
  • decio luz's avatar
    Now I just have to wait for someone to do what you did for the sortitoutsi files, CA-PA changes and attributes. But what you did was good for the people who work with FMscout files.
  • decio luz's avatar
    The ID numbers would be the same as the new Wonder Kids, I don't know why everyone is adding new Wonder Kids, the Sortitouts website already does that and with faces, all the Wonder Kids players from FM26 are in my FM24.
  • decio luz's avatar
    My question is why didn't you do this with the Sortitouts website databases? They update Wonder Kids every day, so you wouldn't have to keep adding the same Wonder Kids, there wouldn't be duplicates, and we wouldn't have to change certain faces. This is useful for people who only have Sortitouts files, like me, and others who only have FMScout files.
  • 5edt's avatar
    1. Using a "2-year aging mod" shouldn't conflict with my update. As far as I know, there are already mods available for that anyway.
    2. I’m not planning to update player positions because doing so without knowing every specific change would take too long. You’re the Manager, so feel free to train them in new positions yourself! :) All jokes aside, a position patch is not on my roadmap right now.

  • JamesAngeles's avatar
    Would it be possible to also change the position of the players?
  • decio luz's avatar
    Hi, you're right, I downloaded the mods from FMScout, everything worked out. The most annoying part is having to change some faces.
  • Kalap's avatar
    how to make the players 2 years older?

    While all players with high CA-PA values were converted from FM26 to FM24 in v1, the v2 update covers nearly 90% of players in over 44 leagues- including both top and lower divisions- and serves as a general player adjustment outside of these leagues.
  • 5edt's avatar
    Thanks for your kind words! To be honest, most players from both top-tier and lower leagues have already been updated for FM24 based on FM26 data. The ones left out are mostly players with very low CA-PA values, so I’m not sure if it’s necessary. I don't think there's a need for it right now v3, but if there's enough demand or feedback, I might consider it!
  • Nigeljordannw's avatar
    Great work, will there be a V3? And what's the difference between V1 & V2 files. Don't like FM 26, so happy to start a new save using FM 24
  • 5edt's avatar
    Based on my testing, TheNotoriousPr0's transfer update on FMScout is both up-to-date and compatible my own updates. Do not enable the wonderkid or CA-PA adjustment files. You should only use the transfer update without any wonderkid or CA-PA changes.
  • decio luz's avatar
    If you can help me find good transfer mods, I'd appreciate it.
  • decio luz's avatar
    FMScout hasn't released any transfer market updates this month yet; unfortunately, the Sortitoutsi website updates daily for FM 24.
  • decio luz's avatar
    The problem is that the transfer and promise files are in the same FMF file on the Sortitoutsi website; it's not possible to separate them. They do this on purpose to avoid creating two separate files, instead creating only one combined file. Not all websites have updated transfer information
  • 5edt's avatar
    From major leagues; England: First 4 Leagues, Germany: First 3 Leagues, Spain: First 3 Leagues, Italy: First 3 Leagues, Netherlands: First 2 Leagues, Portugal: First 2 Leagues, Turkey: First 3 Leagues, Argentina: First 2 Leagues, Brazil: First 2 Leagues. In total, more than 44 top-tier leagues have been updated.

    Around 90% of the leagues updated according to FM26 are complete, but please note that players with a CA around 70 whose potential (PA) does not exceed 100 have not been fully updated in those leagues.

    General adjustments beyond specific leagues: Outside of the specific leagues mentioned, most players have been updated, except for those with a low CA (70–90) and a PA not exceeding 90–100. However, almost all players with a potential (PA) of 120–125 and above have been fully updated. For more details, you can experience the update for yourself!
  • 5edt's avatar
    I made this update voluntarily, so please don't be aggressive! The purpose of this update is to convert FM26 data into FM24. Additionally, wonderkids who exist in FM26 but not in FM24 were added by copying them from FM26 with different IDs.

    I checked your issue in both the FM Editor and FM24, but I couldn't find any duplicate or repeating players. It's really not possible for my update to cause duplicates. Please read the instructions! Remember, 'New Wonderkids' style mods will cause duplicates. I don't recommend using mods like 'New Wonderkids' because others will have the same issues as you. If you are using a transfer update, make sure it doesn't include any wonderkid-style additions!
