New year's Beta update

If you love to edit the game so it fits your tastes, if you love to create your own leagues, you will love this update. Because it adds great improvements to our Leagues editor.

NEW FEATURES

To the huge amount of currently existing features we add the following new possibilities:

The possibility to change the number of leagues from 1 to 5.
The possibility to change the number of teams in every league.
The possibility to set the face types for every country.

Also, we made the following less noticeable improvements:

Added generators of the faces of different nationalities in the Faces editor.
Added the buttons for a random haircut/beard in the Faces editor.
Added the new Greek names.
Added the possibility to see the modification's tags directly in the game.
Fixed the problem with the modification's flag. Now, it won't skew.
Added three new countries: Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand.
Changed the UI sounds (temporarily).

CHANGING THE NUMBER OF THE LEAGUES AND TEAMS

Now, you can make any league much more similar to the real one.

For example, in English Premier League there are 20 teams but in Championship, there are 24 ones. You can easily recreate these leagues in the updated Leagues editor.

Moreover, if you want to keep only these two leagues in England, you can delete the bottom 3 leagues.

The trash icon (which allows you to delete a league) is shown only on the lowest league. It's important because the connection between leagues should be kept. You can delete all the lowest leagues up to the Premier League. Also, you can add leagues until there are five ones.

In addition to realistic leagues, you can also experiment with other formats, creating your own fantasy leagues. For example, you can create a country with three leagues each of which consists of 10 teams.

Or, for example, there's another way of using the new possibilities:

take the countries from America and change every country to the regions of your own country. Here's what I'd make for Germany:
instead of Brazil you can create Bavaria; instead of Canada you can create Branderburg, instead of Mexico - Bremen, instead of USA - Hesse etc.
in every region you can leave only Premier league which consists of 10-12 biggest cities from the region.
best teams will play in the "continental cups" which you already can rename to Germany cup.

You already have the possibility to upload the unique flag for every region, you already have the possibility to upload the list with the surnames which fit every region, you already can set the power for the teams.

In this way, you can create your own unique world which is interesting to watch for. Once you finished creating the leagues, start a new campaign with these leagues and start playing. The world will live, the clubs will develop.

It's something no other game provides.

SETTING THE FACE TYPES

Despite there are wide editing possibilities, there has always been one limitation which didn't allow you to customize the game completely to your liking.

In my previous example, this limitation would not allow me to create the German leagues. Because, in Bavaria, there would be Brasilian faces, in Bremen - Mexican faces etc.

So, there appears our second big features of the new update - the possibility to customize faces for every country individually.

There are many presets already, therefore, you will have what to choose from.

However, let the names of the presets not limit you. For example, faces from the preset 'Britain' can be used in any other country, because the world is wide and diverse.

Usually, the best way to set the faces is to use many different presets. However, every preset should have its own probability.

Try, experiment!

Can't wait to see what interesting leagues you can create with the new tools.

Wish you a very happy New Year!!! ːcannonshotː

PS We really wanted to update the Beta before New Year. There are a few very 'tasty' new features for the Leagues Editor which we finished and almost polished. However, it appeared that there are few critical bugs which we won't be able to fix by the holidays. So we had to postpone the Beta update to January :( Anyway, these new features will bring a new life to the modifications. So it's worth waiting for those who loves creating something new.

Beta Update #4 - Edit the weather for every city

Now, in the beta version, you can change the weather conditions for any country and in every city.

It's not just a cosmetic change because the weather affects gameplay.

HOW TO EDIT THE WEATHER?

THE WEATHER IN A COUNTRY
After you selected the country you are going to edit, click on the button "Edit Weather".

In the opened screen, you can set the weather which will prevail in every month.

Setting time of the year (Winter, Summer etc) affects how the stadium looks in the chosen month. For example, if you set "Winter" for March, it means that you will see snow around the stadium in March.

Also, for every month you can set how often there will be an abnormal weather (heavy rain, snowfall, heat). The number means the probability of the abnormal weather.

THE WEATHER IN THE CITIES
Many of you wrote that they would like to see the weather to be different for every city, not the same for the whole country. Because, for example, North and South of Italy or France have different weather conditions. In some regions, there aren't snowfalls, but in some - there are often hot days.

Therefore, now, you can set the weather not only for the whole country but for every city (club) as well.

Go to the "Weather in cities" tab, set the weather conditions and give a name to this preset. For example "Eternal heat" or "no anomalies". After that, you can use this preset for other cities as well.

Now, you will be able to make the weather more realistic for every country. In some cities, there will more rainy than in others. In some cities, there will be hotter or snower. And that's all inside one country.

Btw, could anyone say in which countries which exist in our game, there are most of all different weather zones?

Update of Beta #3.1

In today's Beta update, we don't add anything special. Just finished the localization of the feature which allows you to rename the tournaments the way you like. Added German, Italian, Chinese, Korean and other languages.

Sounds like a tiny thing, however, it's a very thorough work. Because every language needs an individual approach.

For us, it's very important to know if the renaming feature works well. Therefore, if you rename the tournaments in your modifications, write us, please, on the forum if everything works fine in your language.

Update of Beta #3 + Vote for us!

UPDATE OF BETA

Today, we have updated the Beta-version of the upcoming big update which will significantly improve our Leagues Editor.

The main addition to the Beta is the editor of the tournament names. Currently, it supports only three languages: English, Ukrainian, Russian.

You are allowed to change the names for all in-game tournaments: leagues, domestic and international cups.

It would be interesting to know if it's easy for you to find the button which opens the screen of renaming tournaments. We believe it's pretty obvious but we'd rather listen to your feedback.

You can edit the names in different languages. Therefore, if players play your modification in one of the supported languages, the tournament names will be understandable for them. Otherwise, they will see the default names.

The main idea of this and other new features which we are currently working on is to give you the possibility to create realistic football leagues. We are sure that changing the names of the tournaments will increase the immersion.

Additionally, there are the following improvements:

Added hints to all elements of the Leagues Editor.
Sometimes, when you generated a team with some power, the resulting power was half-star higher or lower. Fixed.
Great guys from the studio "Only Sound" started experimenting with the UI sounds. We added some new sounds to the game. It's only a first iteration so there will be changes to them.
