Hello. I could use some assistance. Just recently got FM12, so I'm checking it out and learning. Now, I hadn't seen FM11, so the 'new' Database format (different than what we saw in the FM08 - FM10 Databases) has plenty of different options.
Some of these newer Database options are great.
But I don't like what appears to me to be very limited cup competitions set-up options in the FM12 Database. Or am I missing something obvious?
What I don't like so far is the much limited options for setting up cup competitions. In the nations that I play (or consider playing in when I transfer clubs and country as a manager) I like to have a full range of Cup options: A national cup, a league cup, a SuperCup that pits the league winner vs. last year's cup winner, and at least one lower league's cup, maybe two lower league cups. In the past (as recently as FM10's Database) this was very, very easy to do in the game's Database. Now?
I see dark shaded gray only -- where one cannot insert anything. The only modification that one seems to be able to do is to change the national cup's name.
Let me give an example of what I'd like to do. I'll use the Netherlands as the example country.
The "Netherlands Database" has a 6-rounds National Cup and a Super Cup. Good, that's fine. But I want to add a League Cup and one for the lower Dutch leagues for a total of 4 national cup competitions each year. How do I do this? And I'd like the make the SuperCup a home & away competition (2 matches, not just the 1) as we used to be able to do in FM game Databases. Now it seems that we cannot do this. Or?
Surely I am overlooking something here. So if someone more experienced with FM12 Database editing helps me out with what I am not figuring out on my own, I will be most grateful. Thanks.
