Finally won La Liga playing as Albacete - and in the very next match, we just trounced league runner up Deportivo La Coruña in the cup final! Insane to beat our Record Win in a big match like this against our closest competitors. ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽

If you do not have a good knowledge of how to alter the compressed source-code in the first place, I must say, to be honest, that you should not go down this road. Still, if you aim to start it, I'd be happy to reply to some questions.

That will be time consuming. You need to open cm2.exe, or what the file is called, in something like hexed.it, then hunt the hard-coded words over thousands of lines within the base code of the game, that basically looks like the attached photo. Also there is a VERY fine line regarding breaking it.

So far, this is going quite well. But now it's ocurred to me that being an editor and all, I might be playing a newer version where the Ultra Def formation was changed to make it less efficient - because I remember Thomas adressing that very problem at some point. Is that it, @cm9798.bsky.social?

How can you make Leeds title contenders season 1? Idea: DOUBLE RAUMDEUTERS I tried about 10 different things, inc the Cov/Don tactic but nothing made us consistent. For some reason this really clicked. We may well lose to Man U, Liv and Ars but already I am impressed.

Sorry for no updates, but tbh this season has been a grind. Our rep still isn't good enough to attract the best Danish players, so I scoop up regens and build for the future. We reverted to this 3-5-2 tactic. Peter Schmeichel is now 39, but still our best player with a 7.65 avg. #cm9798

He was (and is) Norwegian, but in 1993 he took German nationality to help Eintracht Frankfurt avoid the foreign-player problem, effectively making him ineligible for Norway's national team.

There we go -managed to win the league with Sunderland only signing players they had or were linked* with in real life. It felt fun to Google every available player's name to see if #SAFC were ever linked.

So, I've started a Brentford save as well. No Danish players yet, but halfway through the first season it seems I've found an efficient tactic for this lot. Of course, signing David Lee from Chelsea also helped stabilize things. But look at this magnificent run and tell me this tactic isn't good.

No, it can load up to 12k players, and those nations are prioritized like players with caps.

Did you know? There's a lot more players in the database than the ones that appear in your save game. The player load will be different depending which playable nations you select. However, there's a trick you can use if you want to force load all players of a specific nationality. 🧵(1/11) #CMtips

I got stuck in a loop, tactic after tactic trying to find one that was good with Bristol Rovers, whose squad really isn't good. I got hammered nearly every game.... UNTIL... WTF Absolutely mental results

Obviously, 3 arrows pushing all the way up is mental. I just tried about 10 variations of arrows with Empoli and this is most impressive (4 league games inc a 1-0 win against Milan)

Bari have a good squad, esp on V2. Plenty of talent mixed with versatility. Legrottiale, Ingesson, Zambrotta, Ventola, Mancini, Doll. And they're a bogey team. So i'm picking the bogey 😂. A thread on how we get on using some dashing tactics..

In times of great need, we turn to OG #CM9798. Missed out on the quadruple by losing to Boro in the FACQF. Stole the UEFA Cup final from Inter on penalties (haaaaaa!) League was surprisingly serene. @nikolai9798.bsky.social I know you love a lop sided tactic, and this one did the biz.

Wasn't feeling the Antwerp save, so I'll bow out as Champions. Lets go to Portugal, and try to save Belenenses (finished bottom in the 97/98 season). Signings allowed, but only Portuguese speakers (so allows Brazilian getout clause). 🇧🇫🇧🇷 #cm9798

So, the save has dramatically shifted from Millwall and Inter smashing everyone, to Millwall newly promoted to the PL and Barnet who are still in D3... This exciting new tactic is the choice, despite perhaps it favouring top teams? let's go
