Having played fm 09 consistently since it came out trying out a variety of teams, i wanted to edit one of my local teams into a super power asif they were took over by a billionaire.
so i went into the editor that comes with the game and changed the finance structure of the club. i chose kidderminster harriers, is this the problem.

iv tried changing the reputation of the club, youth, training, stadium.

iv tried various combinations of sugar daddy or plc.

used the arrows to increase or decrease my balance, transfer budget and wage structure.

and it doesnt seem to work how i would of hoped.

how ever much i put in the 'balance' box it only ever gives me 24 million maximum. i can increase my transfer budget to around 55 million and my wage budget will only ever allow me to a maximum of 6,000 more than what it is already.

why is this? surely being an editor, you should be able to edit what you want and it should work.

i even compared the way the game structures manchester city and manchester united with whats ticked and what isnt. tried both versions as for some reason they are different in the way they are structured.

the same result would occur.

can someone shed some light on this problem please. because i cant seem to figure it out.

Well if you set the Transfer budget to just less than the bank balance, it won't work. Tick sugar daddy and give like £100M transfer with £1M for wages. As you have a sugar daddy you will get more as-well.

ok cheers will try that. so i set my transfer budget and wages. and leave my balance blank? or set that the same as the transfer budget?
 
The normal Editor isnt very good for this sort of thing,you would be much better off downloading and using the Real Time Editor,you can then give your team hundreds of millions of pounds easily.

Set it to about £100M more so as to give yourself a sound financial base.

have downloaded the real time editor, but doesnt seem to work.

how do you open it within a game?

and do you need to extract the application once already extracting it from the file that is downloaded?

also would me using a mac make any difference?

it hasnt made a difference with anything else, skins, databases etc.
 
You download the Real Time editor then extract to desktop. To use it you need to download Microsoft .Net 3.5SP1. Here's the link:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...2f-5d1a-413d-8319-81da479ab0d7&displaylang=en

Then you just open the editor, load your game in FM. Then load the game in the editor, search your team and edit away. :):)

but when i cant open the real time editor, how am i supposed to do that?

and the tutuorial link you sent me, said i had exceeded summet and wont open.
 
Have you tried increasing your teams reputation before increasing the bank balance in the editor? The reputation you have is linked to the max money you can have at the start of the game.

Step One

The download is (should be) a .rar, you will need winrar to open this file. Do not extract anything from the that file. Just click on the .exe.

Step Two

On the editor click Load game then search for the club you're managing, after you've searched double click the club name and it'll appear down in the left corner, click there.

Step Three

There is then a little tree menu that pops up, where you can edit pretty much anything.

Other Info..

The currency is set to Euro, change this by click on the menu in the middle, it's the icon on the top row and it's furthest right.

Don't forget too click Save changes as you go or you won't see your changes in game

cheers for the tips, will be handy when i can get it to work.
with apples im not sure winrar can be used, i have used the unarchiver which is the equivalent to extract the file.
which has extracted it although there doesnt seem to be anything to actually open within that folder.
will it not open if your not in a game?
 
but when i cant open the real time editor, how am i supposed to do that?
.

Well in the FMRTE, it says 'Load Game', then once you click that you can select what save you want to edit. You need to start a game first though.

ok will give it ago.

does it matter where you save the editor to. or can u just save it into the sports interactive folder

?
 
ok i have finally sorted the money problem, the chairman had a very low rating of generocity or whatever it is.
changed that and its worked.

now the balance and the transfer budget are fine i can put whatever in,

but the wages are like 1500 difference, which isnt enough at all.

are there any contributing factors to change that?
 
i set it to 50mil for my rhyl team, it worked fine but the board would only give me 16!

iv worked that out now. for your finances to increase properly

you need to ensure that the reputation of the club is at 10000 or justbelow to gain the full benefits of the editor. also increase the chairmans attributes in the non player data section related to his boardroom input. business, interferance, generocity and resources. increase all to 20 except interferance, as this will mean they may buy there own players for you. this should enable you to gain the money you need.

i just cant get the wage budget to go up to what i want even after doing all that.
 
yea, i made rhyls reputation pretty high to be honest

i didnt set the budget i was allowed, just put the balance to 50mil.

did you have to add a reserve or under18 team??? i had to with rhyl, and now there not registerd in any competition??
