here is the league pack for all nations/federations in Asia. It also includes the continental competitions for the 2024 format with coefficients.
! for Official 24.3.0 Update Database only !
Creating the world is a very time consuming task, and I do not have the time to support and test all databases. So I am going with the latest version only. The bright side is that it is for free. Tips are more than welcome though :-)
This file contains leagues and cups in real formats for all member federations of the AFC.
please see the readme.html for details.

I changed the rules to 5 allowed in playing 11 by the way.
I noticed an issue with the Thai League 3 promotion system. Right now, it’s set to draw promoted teams from the Amateur Division, but there aren’t any teams in that division in the database. All the teams are actually in the Thailand Lower Division.
Because of this, the game just ends up promoting the same teams that got relegated the previous season. A simple fix would be to change Thai League 3 to pull promoted teams from Thailand Lower Division instead. That should sort it out!
Hope this can be fixed. Cheers!
What I can bring to your attention to look at maybe, in the UAE league in this mod there is a 5 foreigner rule and 2 in the 2nd division. In real life the government did something, that you can register like 5 foreigners as "residents" so they don't count for that number. While you can't replicate this in the editor, I think it would be more realistic to have a higher limit? Right now every team there has many foreigners not registered.
I added the leagues with the foreigner rules, so the AI should know that they can have max 10 foreigners. But if the hardcoded stuff takes priority over that then I am afraid there isn't much I can do about it.
But thanks for making me aware, I will keep an eye on it and see if there is anything that can be done. But at this moment I have no clue as I don't know of any setting in the editor for that.
So I did a holiday test over night and while they seem to sign some Saudis now, the crazy transfers from Europe seem to be removed as well. Some of that seems to be caused by the Daveincid though as well.
(it is not crazy to load all my files because that is what I do myself)
@phuc174: ok, I think I understand that you mean that the teams from 2024/25 season should be in the leagues. If so, this is not what I do. I create rules for the game, and the game start is 2023/24 season.
@Faisalx3: those rules will start in 2024. In the first season (2023), they use other rules (real life 2023 rules)
@Tiagoteles26: sorry, my spanish no good. but I will add new Argentina format in time, I just don't know when right now.
@Fdrllw: I checked and yes, I made a mistake in the Singapore rules where I put 3 instead of 6
@everyone: if yall enjoyed MasterIgor 2025 DB update, do buy him a coffee/chocolate, please see the readme.html for more details. Cheers
Reference: The following key changes were made to the rules for the 2024–25 season.
Each club squad must consist of a minimum 18 professional players and a maximum of 25 players.
Clubs must field a minimum of five local players, which is in line with the quota set by the AFC for its club competitions with the exception of Young Lions.
Quadruple round-robin format where each club will play each other four times in a season, instead of just three in seasons.
Each club can now register a maximum of nine foreign players, including representation from an AFC member association and three players under the age of 21 at the point of registration. A player who is initially registered as an under-21 player will remain classified as such for subsequent seasons, regardless of whether they turn 21 years old, until the rules changes.
For the U21 league, all Clubs (including Young Lions and excluding SAFSA) are allowed to register a maximum of 8 Foreign Players who are 21 years or younger, at the point of registration.
Value of the sponsorship is worth around $620,000.
VAR technology was feature for the first time in Singapore league history starting 2023.
Players get suspended for one match after 4, 7, and 9 yellow cards in a league, with a fine added after the 9th. A red card comes with a mandatory suspension of 1-6 matches, depending on the severity of the offence. Getting 2 red cards in the season results in a $1,000 fine and a possible harsher penalty from the Disciplinary Committee.
