@LewCCFC: That sounds wild. Is it a national team in particular or this happens to you with any nt?
@markos76ers: I'm optimistic about making progress with future transfers during this summer.
@markos76ers: It's not currently possible. I haven't made the progress I'd like with future transfers.
I uninstalled the old version, cleaned my PC, and installed version 1.11.7, but today it's showing "view only."
If it's like the previous version, maybe it'll work tomorrow.
Thanks for your interest, I hope you can solve the problem.
how does it works properly?
@LewCCFC: Not sure which are the exact criteria for a manager job to be accepted or rejected, but I'd assume the manager's reputation will likely be a crucial factor. So perhaps try maxing out your rep as a test.
@priority76: Good catch. There's a button to copy the RGB values but not one to paste them. I'll make sure to improve this for my next update. Appreciate the kind words.
@Fusneb: If you're able to load your Xbox saves on your PC, it should be fine. Make your edits on PC, then open the save on Xbox. Keep a backup of the save file before the edits just in case, or test the process with a new save first.
@Ahmed lololo: It doesn't let you change fixture dates, but it's something I could implement for the next fixture at least.
The strange thing I've noticed is that I don't always have this problem. For example, on Wednesday I loaded the editor and had no problems. Last night, it was only showing view.
Do you have any ideas what could be causing this problem?
Thanks
Loading my Xbox saves on my pc does work, as I have a friend who has done it. But my worry was that after I had edited something on the pc and then tried to reload on my xbox something may have changed coding or file wise so that I wouldn't be able to. Although I may be over thinking it.
Appreciate the reply.
