MLS Essential Files; Must haves for MLS/USA/Canadian Players

Here are my updated files.

Changes include:
Managers added for all clubs, including nationality, but in most cases no further detail.

USL/PDL Competition/squad/roster rules updated/corrected

Canadian discipline rules improved (based on real life PCSL rules)

PCSL playoffs removed (there aren't any playoffs).

PCSL Challenge Cup added

Paul Mariner now manager of Plymouth Argyle

Known issues still to be resolved:

USL playoffs currently give bye to worst team, not best and are one-legged affairs.

Perhaps the playoffs need to be worked around via a separate cup competition -- if so, playoff prize money should be payed out in cup, and the cup should have a higher reputation than the league.

I've requested the functionality to be more specific with the playoff rules be added in for Patch 2, but it might be a 'feature request' which could delay it until next version. I'll keep you all apprised...

as of right now, no way to add 2nd legs or rules, or to change who gets the bye.

I'm trying to get to the download page for the files (on mediafire), but I get an empty folder -_-

Is it because I'm in Europe or are the files getting deleted ? :blink:

Ohhhhhhhhh no!

I know SI said the comp editor had its limits, but... Is one of the limits that it doesn't really work properly at all?

Aljarov, please lobby them very hard.

Being able to seed teams properly in a playoff isn't really an "extra", it's basic functionality.

Also -- I holidayed for two years and the PCSL Challenge Cup, which should simply have the top 4 clubs from the PCSL league season play in a cup... Well it actually just picks 4 teams totally randomly!

My guess is that if we tried to make playoffs a separate cup competition, the same thing would happen.

I KNOW for a fact that SI advertised the ability to have certain competitions qualify teams for other ones through the new editor. And as a paying customer, I think it's fair to demand that they deliver on that promise.

Rant over.

Thank you. :)

The request to make sure it doesn't give a bye to the worst team is a bug....that should be handled for the patch.

Making the playoffs customizable, like a cup, well there's much more to that....and that may or may not make it.

How about not being able to have the top so many teams qualify for other tournaments, is that considered a bug? Because I'm almost certain that ability was advertised in the blogs.

If they fix that, we can make the playoffs a cup competition with two legs if we want.

Is anyone committed to taking on the file after SaintsCanada?

I would like to add more to the colleges, like rivalries and coaches when I get the chance, but I do not want to stand in the way of anyone who has the time to make a lot of changes now.

I would think that we should make an effort to get most of the basic college information done by the next patch and get a good handle on players before the real-life draft happens. I may start some information-gathering threads in the Editing forums soon.

Coasterkoa was due up next...if you're looking for something to do, help on some of the other CONCACAF leagues would be a massive help.

If a load the US and Canada files, and then click Singapore as an active league, I get an error. Anyone know what could be causing this?

Absolutely no idea.

The XML files add unique ID's that, even if a conflict is found, should be corrected by the game.

Nothing in those files had anything to d with the Singapore file.

Sometimes, the game will just crash, and if you try it again it's fine....does it happen repeatedly?

I'm working on it, but its going very slowly. As I informed Aljarov, I have been busy with school and work this week, and to top it all off I have gotten sick, so
