I have compiled a "Megamod" if anyone is interested. None of it is my own work, I just understand how much of a ball ache it can be getting everything downloaded, especially for those with just little time or slow internet access.

It is going to rock in at about 15GB (Compressed).

It includes where possible, up to tiers 7/8.

Faces
Short Sleeve Kits
Stadium Backgrounds
Emblems for Domestic Clubs and European International Teams
League/Cup logos

If anyone is interested, I can upload it to my domain.

If any link posted could not be shared outside the forum, it would be appreciated else it would be removed.

I'm with Sean - this would be great if you can do it.

I've never added anything to any FM, but something like this would be a fantastic addition for anyone here I feel. It might also be worth asking pingwing to clear up and update the first post in this thread and add this in there too.

An overnight download of a torrent would be best for me, but hey, I'll take whatever you decide, thanks.

On previous years, it is likely to be no more than 33% off with it being such a new release. It was not majorly discounted until around March if I remember correctly.

Amazon is the cheapest at £19.99, you have to wait for the key though obviously.

If it must be a digital download, then Getgamesgo:

http://www.getgamesgo.com/product/football-manager-2013 - £23.69

HOWEVER.

Save an American Address into your address book and select that to pay via Paypal in USD at $31.59 which currently converts to £20.04 ;)

Cool.

I will upload to domain and use it as a web seed for the torrent, everyone wins.

Just need to do a little more testing.

It is important though that we keep it just as a OcUK community release.

I respect the work the mod makers do and some of the communities are against sharing outside of their "official" means even if that means using pathetic file hosting services or you paying to use their servers. They just make it too inconvenient for people to access their work.

I will of course credit all those whose work is included.
 
I am being lazy and have not searched much, but any idea why my saved matches in the 3d match engine are "stuttery"? Is that just how they are or am I doing something wrong?

I want to put them on youtube but the stuttering puts me off.

Gimpy I'd love a link to that download when it's ready, thanks for putting it all together :)

Forgot to compile some adboards so will do that... would like it to be as "complete" as it can be for those who do not have the time to install loads of different mods.

Some of the adboards will be last years for the lower leagues and rest of the world club teams.
 
The reason they don't like it being shared is because they want to profit from it. Most of those sites offer pay to download services, it's bull. I too respect the time and effort they put into modding the game, but it should be shared correctly via torrents and in complete packages. No farting about with payments/public file hosts. No downloading each league/club/country separately (which takes FOREVER!)

Just my 2 cents. It's something that's frustrating and holds the community back each year imo. :o

Cheers for the links lads!

I've never saved a match or any part of one sorry. My game was a bit jittery as a whole for a week mind, but then it all settled down nicely.
 
FM2013 Megamod

Faces
Adboards
Club Logos
Competition Logos
Stadium backgrounds

Where possible, down to tier 7/8.

Not my work, I just threw them together to make it easier for peeps.

Extract the .rar to:
\Users\User\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2013

I ADVISE TO BACKUP THE ABOVE FOLDER BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES.

Once extracted, please follow the steps below:

Goto Preferences, and select "More interface settings":

Then ensure the boxes below are ticked/unticked as detailed.

2.jpg


Click Confirm.

Click "More interface settings" again and ensure the boxes are ticked as below:

3.jpg


Click Confirm and your good to go.

This is a first release, please make sure you backup :)

Just under 10GB.

Am currently uploading directly to my domain but that has about 3 hours to go.

I have provided a torrent for those who would prefer to obtain it that way.

Torrent:
http://gimpymoo.com/torrents/FM2013_MegaMod.torrent

Notes:
Adboards are last years at the moment, these will be added in an easy to install incremental update but for the time being, this should not affect enjoyment of the game.

No skins are included at the moment although I do wish to utilise some panels later.

Was there anything else...?

YES... BACKUP ;)

Any questions, or problems, message away.

How do you guys quit the game?

What I normally do is press the 'Quit Game and Exit' button, and it always asks me to save the game. Sometimes, it decides to skip the save bit, and just close the game. Fair enough it tells me 'Do you want to close without saving' but I instinctively press yes, because I'm used to getting a different pop-up.

Takes the ****.

This time I lost my 5-0 win. Thankfully, I hadn't plaid the CL game, because I would be fuming. Managed to win the game 2-0, but Fenerbache won (they had previously lost).

Save manually then press cmd+Q ;)

Habit more than anything else that I don't know when it wants to save so I do it for my self usually to avoid those terrible moments...

Does that exist (as one button).

How much hours do you guys have? I have 158.9. If you do the math, that is €0.18 per hour of gameplay.

Although I chat with friends, look at facebook etc. when it is processing.

Can't score for ****. I am scraping through games because my front 4 can't score. We can have over 30 shots, but score like 1 or 2. Disappointing. Sturridge has 0, a young Turkish has 2 (both against Fenerbache, won me the game!), Yilmaz has 1/2 (he is injured now though), and the Swiss guy has 3/4.
 
196 hours already :( (though I think there was more in 12 and 11 at this point)

Hate it when players just stop scoring, had about 5 games where I couldn't seem to create any chances, let alone bury them. Getting everyone good in one easy game seems to fix it though.
