Key Things to noteStart all new saves with the 24.3 database.All save game files come with the regens pre loadedRegens don't spawn until the first youth intake so regen faces won't work until thenPlayable Leagues- England 1-3- Italy 1-2- Spain 1-2- Germany 1- France 1- Scotland 1- Holland 1- Portugal 1- Turkey 1- Greece 1WARNING: This database does not include a facepack as standard out of respect for my good friend and creator of the base database, TheMadScientistFM. For a full facepack, please visit the following link:The 2000/01 DB Face Pack FM24 | PatreonWhat is included in the download- Editor data file- Game setup fmf for the playable leagues- 2 regen mod edt files- 2 pre-built save files- Retro Logos- Retro 3d + 2d kits- Trophy pack- Stadium pack (FM24 only)- Regen facepack (FM24 only)

Regen Mod optionsNormal - This is the standard regen mod that you are all used toVariable PA ranges - This mod changes the PA values to ranges such as -10, -9 etc. This means that the actual PA value of a player will fall within a 30 PA range rather than being a fixed number, allowing for more variation.

Known Issues- Regen birth months for the last 6 months have been changed for the FM26 version to avoid a bug with 15-year-old regens having randomised CA/PA. The instake dates have been changed to late June to also minimise the impact of this bug. FM24 is unaffected.- As a result of the above, if you try and create a new save in FM26, it will not work. You either need to load the game via one of the pre-prepared save files or start a new save FM24 and use the save conversion feature. Sorry for any inconvenience.

How to install the full package on FM24https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22jwZRQAy7QHow to install the full package on FM26- Extract the mod zip file- Rename your existing Football Manager 26 folder to something else- Copy the Football Manager 26 folder from the mod download folder into the Sports Interactive folder

How to use the preloaded save file online- Change the save to an online one via the ingame preferences- Invite friends via steam where possible (server search often glitches)

Thank you for your incredible work, but I have a question: is there any way to change the names of certain clubs? For example, AC Milan is called Casciavit here.

Daishinkan

But i start the save dirrectly on FM26 and i have already the real name fix for fm26

mrtini23

You need to put it in all folders not just 2630

Daishinkan

i have done on 2600 and 2620, and same problem do i have to do it on 2400 and 2430 to ?

2026-10-02 17:00 Could you please upload saves that have a normal hall of fame? Im noticing the other managers like Work the Space in there with 34 back to back champions league wins from a gilbraltar team... Please clean the hall of fame data so the save file doesnt include crazy stats like that hahah
2026-08-26 05:57

mrtini23

My save files have no baring on the hall of fame data, that's an issue on your end. You will likely have a hall_of_fame.dat in your football manager folder, remove that. Only works for new saves i believe though

Shnarf

Im sure it is.... Ive deleted the hall of fame dat. started a new save. and have a fresh hall of fame. when i load the save that is in your folder, the one i paid 11 euro for it has random managers, with scores up to 33k, some familiar names and some random/custom names. Also is there another way to get the real names fix to work? ive done the usual work around with the real names fix but notice your save game also still has the same naems like acmilan being incorrect ( read the comment above but that doesnt help)

mrtini23

Real name fix for fm26 is as simple as adding it to all folders rather than just 2630

mrtini23

For the hall of fame thing I think you'd need to create your own save to have a fresh hall of fame

Shnarf

im on fm26...

mrtini23

Yes the solution i gave you was for fm26....

mrtini23

Unless you mean creating your own save? In that case you'd need FM24 and my hands are tied on that one

Shnarf

bro you just said, the solution to the hall of fame issue and the real name fix issue.(on your save file in the folder i downloaded) -- is to create a new save. but in your description of the mod files you write there are known issues making a new save with fm26, so theres no real work around. You also said the fm24 work around doesnt do the trick...

Shnarf

why cant you, do the real name fix on your pc, or atleast empty out your hall of fame dat file and reupload the file with a clean hall of fame. its your save file...

mrtini23

The real name fix issue does not need a new save. I assume you already have it installed yes? You just need to install it in all folders rather than just the 2620 folder. See here https://i.ibb.co/x81CfmfK/explorer-3-ECy8r-Gz-EM.png To rectify the Hall of Fame, if the issue hasn't resolved by deleting that dat then yes you will need to start a new custom save to remove that issue. You would need to do that on FM24 and convert the save over to FM26 as it's not possible to start one on FM26. Hope that makes sense?

mrtini23

I have. It's not an issue on my end

재용 유

Do you have data on Regen players by year?

mrtini23

I don't I'm afraid, there's just way too many for that sort of thing to be viable

Shnarf

Even on fm24..... your save game file has the hall of fame like ive explained above. even after deleting hall of fame dat in fm24... im pretty sure this is something you can easily fix by just deleting it and uploading a new one with a clean hall of fame. just have a look for yourself.

mrtini23

It's not a big enough issue to warrant the time that takes in all honesty

Shnarf

Yeah fair enough, my bad

Thank you for the db & updates. I just thought you should know there's another 5.1 GB zip in your gofile zip called logos(dot)zip in location - 1. FM24 2000-01 v6.0 Mod Pack\Football Manager 2024\graphics - which I assume to be a backup so I only used the other files. Your V5.0 didn't have an extra zip.

mrtini23

I just forgot to remove the zip. Its just the srandalone pack for the logos. Thanks for lerting me know

2026-10-02 17:00 How does the dynamic European competitions work? Silly question I know, but does it start as the two group stage for 00/01 then update per what happened in real life for these competitions? (same question for the 86/87, 94/95 database as well)
2026-08-28 12:51

mrtini23

As close to IRL as possible given the limitations of the editor yes

mrtini23

So for example the 2024 format is 32 teams instead of 36 as you can't change the amount of teams joining in each round dynamically. I've had to adapt each format to match

regens mod doesnt work in FM26 save file

Marcin

Hi! If I just want to use the save file to start new career do I still need to install the regen mod file?

Al

Hello sir, I'm at my youth intake day and want the regens to have actual player pictures but confused about which method to use. Do I need to export all the new regens "unique IDs" like the video from BigRobbo14 suggests? Or do I just wait until the start of 2003/04 in my save and install the next available facepack in your "FM24 Plug & Play Regen Facepacks" post on patreon? Thank you!

mrtini23

There should be a plug and play 0001 version

Al

Is it as simple as placing the regen folder in the graphics folder? I’ve done this while reloading skins and cleared my cache but no success. Or do I need to create a separate folder for regens named something specific?

mrtini23

Did you download the full pack or everything seperate? The regens for fm24 shoild be on the full pack already with a folder within the graphics folder

Gooders7592

I might have missed it, but I don't think Wayne Rooney comes through the regen file? (might be others, but he's the more obvious one I can't see)

Gooders7592

I'm 4 seasons in and he doesn't appear. I just checked the regen file for FM24 dated 03/08/2026 and Wayne Rooney isn't showing?

mrtini23

That's weird. He's in there on my end 😦

Gooders7592

I just redownloaded again from the GoFile and Mega (checked fixed and variable for 24 and 26) and he's not appearing.

mrtini23

I must have uploaded the wrong one. He'll be in the next version once ive sorted the ucl

SMiThaYe

Been loving this DB, covers so many legends and feels really nicely balanced. Well, one funny thing I came across in the year 2030 was the scout report (from my chief scout, Wolfgang Dremmler) for Hidetoshi Nakata that said he 'Could generate £16.25M per year in marketing revenue' - that's huge in this era and probably even modern era, nice!

Mad and I don't touch finances after the 94/95 debacle

Kody Manharth

Love the DB so far I did find a small thing that kind of broke immersion more than "is a bug"; On a new game with Manchester United on the FM26 version. I have very limited staff already hired (10/28, 8/36, 4/13) and only 150 interested people per role or so. Most of these are very low tier staff and wouldn't fit the level of Man United in 00/01. I imagine this is like a realism thing of there weren't nearly this big of staffs back then? Most of them are what I'd expect to get in the national league on a normal save. Will this fill in with more staff over time or is this just the level I should expect for staff?

mrtini23

This is one for TheMadScientist really as he's the creator of the base database. I am looking into a way of doing things differently so it might be an option in the future

Kody Manharth

Also the Old Trafford rating of Good is anachronistic. In 2000 it had more seating than any other stadium in the country save the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. It was only really surpassed by Camp Nou and San Siro at the time internationally tmk.

mrtini23

Again, you'd need to raise this with Mad for now. I believe it's based entirely on CM of that time

Kody Manharth

Thanks I'll pop over and ask him then. :)
