    Have you it updated? What version are you using?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 21,254 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dub13


    I am using version 5.0,I tried to update it and when I started the game it was in Spanish or some language,so I just left the update.

    You can change the lanuage easily enough.

    Was it a cracked versions, there were issues with some of them crashing half way through a season... :)

    Where did you get your patch from Dub13? You should get it from SIGames.com, the download section there.
    I got it there, and am playing version 5.0.5 and have had no problems.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 21,254 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dub13


    I got it from here


    http://files.fmbase.co.uk/downloads.php?action=file&id=688

    I just got version 5.0.5 from that site but again when I load it up its in another language...?if I could just get it back into english mabe the game will be grand (I hope it will as I was starting to put a good run together)

    Go into where the preferences are from the main screen. It shouldn't be too hard, a bit of trial and error and you will be in the usual options screen.

    It will have a drop down menu of the languages, probably currently saying Espanyol or something. Change that to English in the list. Sorted.

    got it back into english but its still crashing.....I dont want to start another game in case it crashes again when I reach Nov 05

    Is it just this save game that crashes? What league are you playing?

    Is it running the Eircom League as one of the additional leagues? There was a problem where games running Ireland would die at a set date, and the only fix was to update the game (fixes the error) and start again.

    Here's what I did with my crashed game.

    I emailed the nice guys at SIGames and told them my problem. They set up a space on their website for me to upload my game. They emailed me back saying they had fixed the problem in my saved game and I could download it back to my computer. It worked perfectly.

    Get the latest updates and don't take any **** from them. If they are selling faulty products they should be willing to fix them for free.

    Take care


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 21,254 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dub13


    It is running the Eircom League.

    Looks like I will have to get on to SIGames


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,806 ✭✭✭Lafortezza


    I heard about the Eircom league bug as well, have you tried running a game without it?

    I dont think you can take out a league once a game has started....I dont want to start another game and then a few hours into it and it crashes again.

    I have sent a email of to SIGames,no reply yet....I will give them ontill tomorrow and start getting nasty with them.

    It is the EL bug I think.

    This was happening to me aswell so I started a new game and left the EL out and I've gone past the crashing point.

    I will give it another go....of the top of your head do you remember what your crashing date was...?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭andyman


    Yes. Around the 16th-22nd November 2005.

    Nothing yet...two emails sent and two automatic responses so they are getting them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭andyman


    Doesn't look good though mate unless SI arrange to fix it for you. It looks like you have to start again.

    Hello people, My gme started crashing after about 12 seasons. Every time I went into training schedule it just aborted to windows. Any ideas?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,641 ✭✭✭andyman


    Don't know why that is rondeco.

    Dub13, it is the EL bug you have as I just completed my 3rd full season without the EL.
