I never made a test to compare which one would be faster. How many top division ddts you plan to use?

I don't think only 4 or 5 top leagues will make a big difference in the game speed. Probably playing with small database + 2 leagues + 5/6 ddts will be faster than playing with large database + 1 league + 5/6 ddts.

Hi

So why are there no ddt files for Spain and Portugal that include all the clubs from those countries (especially the lower league ones)?

Can someone create those please?

Or tell me how you create them?
Surely you don't write all the club names by hand? You gotta cut'n paste them from somewhere... Just from where?

Thanks

Attached is a zip folder containing ddt files for the following:

All top division clubs from:

Austria
Belgium
Croatia
Denmark
France
Germany
Greece
Holland
Norway
Portugal
Scotland
Serbia and Montenegro
Sweden
Switzerland
Russia
Turkey

Also:

French Second League teams
The top placed teams from last season from most other European Countries
Most African and Middle Eastern Clubs with a reputation over about 4000.

(All data from CM03/04)

I made these files to enhance my own game, and posted them here in case anybody might find them useful.

So if you are wanting a particular team to show up, you should probably check the appropriate file to see if they are there. Smile

- Added "RETAIN_NATION_PLAYERS" "<nation name>" command for ddt files, allows the retention of all players with the same nationality to be retained when starting a new game.

So, if i want to play Serie A and i like to buy swedish youngster players, should I :
A.select 2 leagues - Italy serieA+Swedish 1st division
or B.Select Italian SerieA + sweden DDT file

which is better in term of speed, number of players included.
My intention is just to find some cheap decent players, not all in the league.

**regardless of my Computer's speed and Database size.

Thanks in advance Guyss Smile

B is faster than A, I think. because A have the Swedish D1 players + the competition itself while B only has the Swedish D1 players without the competition.

And also, if there were that many countries, then there should be a command that does this:

"RETAIN_NATION_PLAYERS" "<Then list all the countries you want>"

Rather than having to do

"RETAIN_NATION_PLAYERS" "<Country 1>"
"RETAIN_NATION_PLAYERS" "<Country 2>"

If you retain nation's players, you'll retain ALL players from this nation. If you retain a team, you will retain only the players from that team.

What if for example I select just one league to run and then a few DDTs of first divisions from different countries. Now since I'm only running just one league will the clubs in the DDTs remain unchanged each year. That is will there be promotions and relegations in the DDTs or will always remain the same since I'm actually running just one league?

There will be no promotions or relegations as the ddt files only retain the players but don't simulate the leagues in any way.

well guys...sorry for this noob question but...what is DDT files where do i find then in my CM 03/04 dorectory and what can i do with it
12 January 2004, 21:34
DirtyACE
You don't find the DDT files they find you! Hehe sorry, ok, lets be serious now. These files allow you to retain more players even if you're using a smaller database. So for example if you've decided to use just one league, lets say Italy, but you still want to be able to view and buy all the players who are of Brazilian descent, then you can create a DDT file that will make all the Brazilians available to you even though you're running just one league which isn't Brazilian. These files aren't in the game as far as I understand. You can create them and then put them into the game (Eidos\CM0304\data\db directory). Then when you start up the game just go into Game Preferences and on the very bottom of the screen there's a tab which is usually closed, open it, and there you should see a list of all the DDT files you've put in.

Well this is the best explanation I can give you for now, I've only started reading about these files myself yesterday. It is a good way to customize your games.

Well I encountered a problem with the DDT files. I had this bright idea that I should have separate DDTfiles for every league that I play so that when England is my main league I use one DDT file and when France is my main league another DDT file.

The thing is that when I put in the second file after removing the first the teams from the first file are still there!

I know that I removed players from Zilina, Penang etc. but they are still retained. How come? What am I doing wrong?

No. But more players will be loaded because if you select the Italian League with small database, many players from lower division teams are not loaded.

I am supposing you used the "RETAION_NATION_PLAYERS" command.

I mean the bug is about how the game reads if the file was selected or not. It's not a bug in the .ddt (or .edt) file .

I don't know if you noticed, but when you untick the file, it becomes a *.ddd (or .edd) file instead of *.ddt (or .edt)). I don't know if you rename it to *.ddt (or .edt) it will be fixed.
I never tried that, but I don't know what happens if you change the name of the fil

Or you can reinstall the game which is pretty annoying but may be teh only way to solve the problem.

bug is not a word you want to hear in connection with CM.

Is there a way to sort of start all over again? Because I did include some teams that aren't necessary while there are others I'd rather have. I could add these of course but I'm concerned it might slow down the game too much.


I don't know if you noticed, but when you untick the file, it becomes a *.ddd (or .edd) file instead of *.ddt (or .edt)). I don't know if you rename it to *.ddt (or .edt) it will be fixed.
I never tried that, but I don't know what happens if you change the name of the fil

Or you can reinstall the game which is pretty annoying but may be teh only way to solve the problem.


Have you thought of simply removing them from db and putting them just into Eidos folder? That SHOULD work, but I havent tested so dont shoot the messenger if it doesnt. Smile


I never tried that either.

Anyway, if no sollution works, the only way to fix the problem is uninstalling/reinstalling the game.

Im fairly certain that should work, but no guarentees. Perhaps you could try that Fredrik and tell us if it works.

I have tried it and it doesn't work. I could be doing something wrong but I don't know what.

I have changed the data in the database a bit. Can I save this and exchange the original data with it after reinstalling? It would be useless to reinstall the game if the problem is still there because the DDT file was somehow included into the data. What I mean is that I wonder how the game decides which players to load? Where in the Eidos folder is the file that decides this?
