Another Update.

23.22.4 has been released.

- Fixing old game support
- Allowing mod creators to port mods to other games. I've tested my gameplay mod from FIFA 23 to FIFA 22. Only needed to remove the Splashscreen and the mod worked flawlessly!
- Added Support for importing Json EBX on to another simular EBX. For example, from one shooting asset, to another shooting asset, so you dont have to copy and paste values manually.

Changes:
  • 14e9b0f [FIX] AssetCompiler incorectly reporting files being unaffected
  • 84c6965 [FIFA 22] Enable mod launching support
  • ec5af7e [FIX] Revert assets that link but do not have "LinkedAssets" defined
  • 399e4e9 [FIX] CacheManager control not showing on Editors when needed
  • 851a7f7 [FIX] FMTProj could not load chunk when on a different game
  • 6989bf9 [FIX] Unable to load Game when profile doesn't have tools
  • 18a2908 FIX: Importing a EBX Json on to a simular EBX type causing crash

Looking for a little troubleshooting help.

Title update 11 (This is on D: drive of computer)
FMT 23.22.4 (from today or yesterday) (this is on C: drive of computer)
EA App launcher

When I use FMT to launch the game using paul's career mod and gameplay mod: I get to the splash screen, then the game bonks out to the EA app again.

repairs I have tried:
deleted moddata folder and relaunched game
clicked force reinstall mods
clicked "repair game", waited for repair, then re-launched the FMT
deleted "-dataPath ModData", saved, retyped the datapath instruction...

I am sure there's a user error on my part somewhere here. I usually load the cache and FMT with the game off-- do we still need to load that material while the game is on main menu?
Anyone with steps I can take would be much appreciated. thx

Just remove the FMT folder and unzip and launch it again.
 
Hi guys, gotta ask, mainly curiosity, there's any way to export the commentary audio from the game? i've been search over the network on how to do it but couldnt find anything

edit: or if there's any documentation whatever on what i can help i wont mind
 
Aight, so, essentially, I can't put decimals any longer with FMT. Used to be able to do so with comma, rather the program would signal it with a point, but if I was to put a point there, it would negate the decimals, and a 0.15 would become 15. So I had to signal like 0,15, and FMT would save 0.15 instead.

Ok, so while that's wierd, it works. However, I just move to the Netherlands to start working here, and instead of having 0,15 working, now it signals as an error, and just turns it into 0. And 0.15 will still be saved as 15. So now I can't mod properly cause my FMT doesn't let me put decimals where I need to. Can anyone give me a hand? Appreciated.
 
23.22.5 has been released.

When I try to save a project with imported files from old project, it breaks. Also breaks trying to open a FIFAmod file. Know any reasons of why this might be happening?

Create the issue on GitHub with the affected project or error screenshotted and provide the fifamod and I can look at it.

My major guess would be you if you are still using fbproject, then dont! fbproject will soon be removed.

FIFAMod, who knows, its experimental and I wont know if my thing will work without testing it (the actual file) for myself.

I did the same and it's still crashing. Someone knows how to fix this? When I launch the game, once I'm in the menu, instantly it's crash.

EDIT: I relaunched again the launcher and it's worked.

Youll need to provide me with the mod list and FREE links to them for me to find out why.

FMT also supplies a log file. That would also be helpful.

Thanks.

I'm having the same problem with the European Extension Patch, here is a free link for it: https://sharemods.com/ygtwicpjcxlr/EEP23_MainMod_1_0_2_TU13.zip.html
I don't know if you need the other mods from my log, without EEP they work fine so I guess the problem is with EEP, but just in case here are the links for them: https://dl.fifa-infinity.com/fifa-23/fifa-23-mck-realism-mod/
https://dl.fifa-infinity.com/fifa-23/lod-mods-for-fifa-23-pc/
I've also attached the logs from FMT.
Thank you in advance!
Edit: Evoweb doesn't let me attach the .log file, so here is a link for that too:

Can confirm the FIFA 17 Profile works. Long time ago I explored the Files for FIFA 17. Marco Reus on a cover for FIFA. Must be really long time ago. :))

Hi Paul @Paul-v After 3 days of testing the new relased Tool from you I wanna ask you a question. I tried the 3 days with the FIFA 21 Version of the Tool to open an old FIFA 21 Mod which you can see in my attached Screenshot below. After the progress of "open a project File" is done within the Tool I always become this Error Notification. What I didn´t get is the "successful...opened" message in the log at the same time?! When I try other mods to open and I get the same log notification that it´s successfully ended the progress, but without the Error message. And I can go on within the Tool. the particular mod from FIFA 21 ended by closing the Tool always after the Tool log says "successful opened the mod". Some other mods from FIFA 21 are opened without that Error notification. I also tried it with the last 2 Tools from you just out of curiousity, but the same error after the Tool has finished. The mod runs in game without Problems, so there is no damaged mod or similar. Is it necessary to have the exact TU where the mod was build in my FIFA 21 game Folder? Could that be the issue? The mod was build on TU 16 or TU 17. My exe is from TU 18 which I back uped 2 years ago. Also the latest FIFA 21 exe imported in my FIFA 21 game Folder gives me that Error message from your Tool at the end.

Do you have any suggestions or any hints to make the Tool didn´t give me the error after log says successful opened? Any help would be appriciated. Thanks in Advance.

thats a strange error. i think the discord function is dying on you because your path to the mod is too long. im full speed FC24 next, might be able to catch this along the way.

Thanks Paul! I will try it with a shorter path. Glad to read you are into full speed to FC24. If you have the time to make a properfix beside I will check your Github from time to time.

All good now, Paul! The golden hint from you was about the really long Mod Path from the mod. I put the mod on my c drive without another Folder around them. Mod gets opened without any little Error message again. So I can say from my side the new Tool Version works just great. Many thanks for your work!
Great Tools!
 
Hey guys.

EA Sports FC 24 support

1692051336487.png
You can keep up on FMT progress on FC24 support on:

1. Git FC 24 Branch & Git Issues
2. This thread
3. or this thread

As I don't have a beta code (unlike some others). I am just working from the files and doing as much as I can with them. Aranaktu offered to try my SDK Generator tomorrow. So many thanks to him if he gets the SDK built. Will update when I can.

What I have done so far:

  • Full file listings
  • Data retrieval
  • Texture support
  • Mesh resource support (however, mesh display isn't working as it should)
What is missing:

  • Full SDK (so anything new, which isn't much, to FC24 is not supported)
  • Mesh display is not working as it should
  • Compile mod and test in game (I dont have a beta code/key, so cannot test)
