Think I figured out how, anyone up for a network game? A few of us in a league as mid-table clubs

What does the 8.0.2 patch do? What sorts of bugs does it iron out?
I found that after I installed the first patch, it seemed to eliminate the countless amounts of disallowed goals (I'm sure it did some other stuff, but that was the main one as far as game-play went.)
Would anyone mind zipping up all their addons....logos, kits, facepacks and the like....and hosting them somewhere please?
There are loads of them on sortitoutsi forums but they are all hosted on File-Front and using both FireFox & IE i always get an error saying about 'an invalid session set'.
Cheers.

I can't seem to find the patch anywhere
Can't get my bloody game to work. Has the 8.0.2 patch and when i go to load it it just goes black and sits there.
Sorts out a couple of more bugs and adds the january transfers.
When I click 'Check for updates I get this from the site
'New version available
We've detected that a newer version is available from the Sports Interactive website.
However, we are unable to find the download in our database currently. Please try later!'
I also tried downloading one that was posted in here on rapidshare but it didn't work, I think its because it's for the Windows version and I have a Mac

Just search for the update using google.
Yeah I found it eventually, downloading now
Will I have to start a new game? I'm on my second season currently.
If you're going to use the 8.0.2 database you have to start a new game.
Wow that took fecking ages.
Got started yet?
Seems as though my 6 months of FM are up as i cant be botherd with it again.
Its realy wierd how that happens, when you love doing something but then you need a break from it

I've also just noticed (as the new season has just rolled around again on my game) that it updates the new substitutes rule. You can now have 7 on the bench in the Prem, which is nice.
I've just finished my first season with Barcelona and have been given £130 million to spend, any suggestions of players to buy?
Pique for one..
How do I get players on Free Transfers?
Here's a few.....
Ustari
Marvin Angulo
Gioda
Cahais
Ronny
Esparza
Thiago Heleno
Sankhare
Adrien
Pedro Leon
Renato Augusto
Sobis
Oscar Cardozo
Matias Fernandez
David Luiz
Stancu
Luis Jiminez
Arturo Vidal
Bernardo(Cruzerio)
Nordtveit
Ninis
Garay
Approach to sign them when their contract has expired, or is close to expiring.
You can set your player search to look for those specifics.
I wish they'd release a Football Manager/Fifa Manager game that allowed you to actually play the matches. I would love that.
Fifa 2008 - Manager mode
I'm currently on my 6th season on Fifa 08 MM on the PS3.
But i meant a MUCH more in-depth manager game. If FM had that option, it would be the best football game ever in my opinion.
I would've thought Fifa Manager 08 would allow you to play matches, but it doesn't.
It would probably end up being to easy. That's what's great about FM, it's always going to challenge you.
Does anyone know how to stop the computer cheating?
Thanks.
Thanks.

They have some handy hints there fella, tactics, players, training schedules etc.
I've been trying to get some facepacks, club badges and skins but none seem to work, I think it's cos they're for the PC version.
Any love for the Mac version?
Any love for the Mac version?
Why don't a few of us start up a network game then? Pick middle table teams such as Villa, Pompey, Everton, Spurs, etc.. and see who does best.
its exactly the same for macs;
put images into Documents > Sports Interactive > FM08 > Then Graphics (you may need to create this yourself)
then make sure in FM under options > visual (?) that the 'skin cache' box is unticked - and the 'always Reload Skin On Confirm' box is ticked.
ps. this is my fav facepack: http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f171/007kfn/EPL.jpg
Ah ok cheers, where would I go about finding these?
www.fmglive.com is the best place i find - look in the forums under fcepacks and there are 100's
I might try this game again. I've played 06 and 07, but never really got the hang of it (kept loosing lol) and got bored after a month or so.
Reading this thread makes me wanna play it

So who would be up for a network game then? Maybe 3 - 4 of us?

You should start playing it again. It's the greatest game out there.
I'd be up for it.
Yeah, i'll play as of next Monday when my exams are out of the way
Aye i will mate.
Do it quite late at night, when there's feck all else to do, and no-one has to go out etc?
Cool, sounds good yeah. Late at night is good for me too, it's when I mostly play it.
Say mid-table teams such as Tottenham, Everton, Aston Villa, Portsmouth, etc...
How we gonna pick teams?

What are we gonna do about teams, because some people might want to be the same teams. I could get a few teams and put them in a hat, or we could all say who we want and negotiate from there?
Well this sounds interesting, im in but i cant guarantee il be on everyday.
