I've not played it in years either but this thread has peaked my interest. Probably won't be this week, as Mrs Stewie is off work so no gaming for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted February 14 VT Supporter Share Posted February 14 I refused to believe this works. But it does. the question i now have is do I do this? I pride myself on not cheating in the game but it's well tempting here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I remember something similar on a previous version. Like you say though no fun using it, would ruin the save for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I got a bit bored of my Villa save once I'd won the big 2 trophies. Going for the long slog of the San Marino challenge now I have started it a couple of times on previous FMs but never really got further than about 10 seasons. Hoping to see it through this time and the ability to carry on with the same save file in FM25 should help if needed. On previous attempts I went with Victor San Marino playing in the Italian leagues but this time I've decided to play in the Sammarinese division with Fiorentino. Hoping to improve the league as a whole as well as the national team. Got off to a really good start so far as I won the league in season 1 and actually managed to win some European matches and get into the Europa Conference League! That gave us £2.5M which is huge for a semi-pro team. Managed to really improve the team in season 2 with lots of quality free transfers and loans, so much so that it's actually unreal. I have Pierluigi Gollini in goal for example on about £500 per week I guess we got a huge rep boost from Europe. Already wrapped up the league in S2 and looking ahead to Europe, actually think we have a chance of Champions League or Europa league this time with a kind draw The national team is really bad at the start and the only matches we've won were handpicked friendlies. Did manage a decent draw v Lithuania in WC qualifying too. Going to be a while to see much progress though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbojangles Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Just downloaded it and haven't played in the best part of a decade.

For example I don't bother taking press conferences or friendlies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
