I've always enjoyed the Data Editor on FM games, so i decided to make an attempt at an almost completely balanced English Premier League.

Edits included:
- Giving every club an overall Finance of 1 billion pounds.
- Giving every club a Transfer Budget of 1 billion pounds.
- Giving every club a Wage Budget of 10 million pounds.
- Increasing every clubs reputation to 10000 (a lot).


I can already see some advantages and disadvantages to the way the game should play out.

Advantages:
- Same spending and rep should ensure the traditional smaller clubs won't be priced out of buying the big players.
- All-round better quality of players in the league.

Disadvantages:
- Big clubs will already have good players, therefore starting off with an advantage.
- Managers should be fired quite often from the under-performing clubs.


If you can think of anything more that i've forgotten please give some input in this thread.

weaker clubs would never be able to get rid of weak players because players would not want to leave.
For example if a player is good for Sunderland and you transform Sunderland into ManU that player is no good for them, but he wont leave to a weaker club.

Yea, because he would go to a big team... like from Man U to Liverpool, because all teams have same rep

Do you think that could be countered by the incredible amounts of money a club has and they wouldn't even need to get rid of them until their contract runs out?

if you use the original editor that comes with FM.

then you will realise that each team have their own 'stats'.

its in the area where you can choose what the teams primary formation is etc.

things like counter attack, depth, attacking defensive and such will be there. and the ability can be chosen between 1-20.

thing is the smaller clubs will still have less stats on things. even though they have the best players in the world in FM they wont be the best attacking team.

so if u made every single team with '20' on everything, like attacking etc.

then you would see more competitive of course. of course then its a big difference between the managers etc.

Of course, I completely forgot about that. I might try another game after a few seasons of signings on the current one.

its better when you go to the big boys you can expect to get something out of the game instead of getting lucky!

how have you changed the transfer budget etc to 1 billion coz when i do it then it always changes to something like £29m or sumit. i just use the standard fm editor that the game comes with, do i need to download something else?

try FMM(FM modifier). download and install that, and when in the game load it with the program(shouldnt be hard to see how to do it all).

after u have pressed load and it has loaded(takes a few seconds). then search for ur team. at times you might have to wright 'man utd' and not manchester united.

but anyway on there u can change ur money and such.
