MLS/US data update for FM2005

UxSxAxfooty · 23 Mar 2005, 07:40 PM

I've built an MLS/US data update for FM2005 on SI's latest data update released with the 5.0.3 patch.

My update adds all SuperDraft picks, Supplemental picks (O'Rourke, Moor, John, Barrett, etc) and new players (Simms, etc) to their respective MLS teams, as per MLSnet.com. As well, I've created Real Salt Lake and Chivas USA as non-league US teams with their respective updated rosters. Though they cannot particiapate in MLS, friendlies can now be scheduled against them and they play in the US Open Cup.

The MLS rosters are all correct as of today, March 23, including Califf to San Jose, Gomez to LA and Rodriguez to Columbus. Recent transfers such as Naldo, Paulinho, Chinchilla, Bailey and Guppy are made, as well. Some speculative, unconfirmed deals are also included such as Vanney, Mina, Denton and Harris. Players not on respective MLS teams like Noel, Torres and Ibrahim are because I can't yet find their birthdates listed anywhere. USL First Division offseason transfers (Watson, Welton, Klaas) are made, as well.

Various tweaks to abilities and reputations of US and MLS players are made as well as team and competition detail fixes (US Open Cup, USL First Division). Some US U-20 players in college or otherwise are created like Feilhaber, Rogers, Nguyen, Sturgis and Ochoa.

The file can be downloaded at http://www.calvin.edu/~jds28/server_db.zip Its 6.5 MB and be sure to backup your own server_db file.

Please either post here or email me any suggestions, fixes, changes or criticisms of my update. Thanks.

I'm unsure if the data is compatable with WSM as I own FM, though I would assume that it is as both likely use the same database file.

I'd like to download the rosters, but the link appears to be broken. Could you try to put them up on another link?

Thanks.

So again does anyone know where I can download the update?

The link doesn't work...could this be posted on the fmusa4you website? Wasn't fmusa4you going to have an update?

Just wanting the rosters...

I had hoped to add this to the site, but as already mentioned, there are problems with downloading it off it's current page. Once I've got the file, I'll add upload it.
