Have it installed and am delighted to see spurs despite their 3 defensive signings still have an even bigger budget.

Pacifico

7 Subs in England from the 2008/2009 season added! Nice

Will this update any current games in progress or will I have to start from scratch after installing?

Start from scratch. That's always been the way as far as I know unfortunately.

Cheers. Probably for the best, it's not as if I was setting the managerial world alight.

great stuff, thats tonights activities sorted then:D

Yeh, tis save game compatible. The new Prem 7 sub rule kicks in the following season.

Just have to point out that there is an issue with the 8.02 patch.


Issue - Tottenham become very rich, and Portsmouth poor, in the first season.

Who will it affect - Affects all newly started games with 8.02 data update.

Fix - using the data editor provided with the game, load the 8.02 database into the editor. Search in the "clubs" section for "Portsmouth". Go to the "finances" tab, then "contract clauses 2". Find "Jermain Defoe" (5th from bottom in the list). Change "per league appearances" to "after league appearances".

quick question,

with the 8.0.2 patch, can you start a game in Jan.08 or does it start as normal and the transfers that happened in Jan are pre.arranged?

The game starts at the start of the season as usual but with the January transfers included in the squads. Hope that helps.

kaimera

thank ya sir.

winrar is what you need. the patch itself is a self installing .exe that shouldn't need a program to run it once it's been extracted by winrar. if you've used winrar to extract it and you're PC still can't run it then I'd say your download was corrupt. just try a different location (like this).

Cheers got winrar from that site & patch ran grand

Yep. It's all here. http://community.sigames.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/521102691/m/1842088083 I still can't believe they let that Jermain Defoe error slip in though.
