Football Manager 2020 | Steam 20.4.4 | 4-Nov-2020

[tfigment]

This is a table for Football Manager 2020 version 20.4.4 (Updated 4-Nov-2020)

It seems stable enough and most pointers seem to be correct so I'm release it for now. I'm still play testing so save early and save often and make backups and don't expect too much. I cannot promise to update for each beta but hopefully not too much work and I can get around to it.

Here is list of features in the current build:

• Edit Person (Player, Staff, Manager) attributes
• Edit Club attributes
• Edit National team attributes
• Edit Competition attributes
• View Match attributes

• Dynamic Lists for Clubs to show Teams and players/staff in the teams
• Dynamic Lists for Bonus & Clauses in Contracts
• Dynamic Lists for Relationships
• Helper Scripts that either run immediately or periodically to:
  • Set Happiness, Fitness Condition/Sharpness, Training Happiness for all squad members of a Club
  • Set Favourability to Max for all members of a club
  • Set Fitness Condition/Sharpness for all squad at the National team (if you are coaching one)
  • Set budgets to high number periodically to allow free spending for recruiting
  • Set contract dates to current day (or back to join date) to help stop offers. (Better to add high value "Minimum Release Fee" to stop offers but both can be used)
  • Prevent Player or Staff Attributes from decreasing during monthly updates

A lot of values seem to be cosmetic and dont impact the game so dont expect everything shown to impact the game.

Details about Table

Here are some random details about the table for advanced users trying to edit or update the table. (Not tips for cheating).

The core injection script which updates when focus changes seems to call an virtual function for any object being selected. This is useful except that everything goes through it is hard so to differentiate objects (i.e. players, clubs, teams, matches, etc) from each other. I use the C++ class vtable pointers. This makes it very accurate when vtable is known but makes it hard to update when not known. I added Selected Object and Vtable to Allocated Pointers area which should make it easier to locate pointers by observing those changes as these cannot be AOB scanned easily.

For players, I use the compiler hints around the vtable for C++ multi-inheritance classes to guess where the data blocks begin for shared data in classes.

How to update the table (as of 20.0.4):

• Edit Script for "[X] <--- Football Manager 2020 ..."
  • Change "expectedExeVersion" to new version number
  • datTimeRoot
    • Before loading any game search for "01 00 00 00 20 ?? 00 00 01 00 6c 07"
    • Pointer is address for 01 00 6c 07
  • datPlayersList (optional)
    • Search for "25 00 00 00 ff 3d 00 00 00 ff 0f 84 42 05 00 00 81 e1 ff ff 7f 00 81 f9 ff ff 7f 00 0f 84 30 05 00 00"
    • pointer is in the MOV instruction below this
  • lblManagerRoot
    • Search for "4c 89 74 24 58 48 89 74 24 30"
    • pointer is in the MOV instruction 2 instructions above this
• Activate the "[X] <--- Football Manager 2020 ..." script
• Edit Script for "[X] <----- Update On Focus Change or Hover Tooltip ..."
  • Search for "49 8B 0F BA 72 64 70 72 4C 8B 49 10"
  • Update define for iniSelect to match
  • Search for "48 8B 06 BA 6F 6E 52 44"
  • First entry is iniTooltip to match
• OK to close
• Activate the "[X] <----- Update On Focus Change or Hover Tooltip ..." script
  • Select Persons and monitor the Allocated Pointers > VTables > Selected Object
  • Update vtables in the "[X] <--- Football Manager 2020 ..." script with this vtable address
• Edit Code Modification Scripts
  • Search for datXXX
  • update iniXXX to match
  • These can be AOB but that is slow and this entire table cannot be AOB yet due to manual update of vtables and clock
• OK to close
• Deactivate all scripts. Then reactivate them so that new defines are in use.

Is this game something like an RPG for european football?

[tfigment]

Sure. I'd say it has one foot in RPG, one foot in Strategy but all in on Spreadsheet (sort like Crusader Kings)

A while after editing staff attributes, their stats drop. Is there anything you can do about this issue or is it working as intended?

Alas not much can be done. this is the game doing it every couple months or so. Other cheat tools will save values and reapply. That is a lot of work. Another approach is to find the rebalancing code and prevent it but also hard to find. Finally, find previous values and maintain baseline but not sure where that is but the game does save since they are in charts. Anyway maybe one day.

Update: Decided to dig in to this a little more though could not find Staff updates yet, I was able to find code for player updates and was able to write code modification script to prevent most of those from decreasing. The new table has a new script Helper Scripts > Code Modification Scripts > Prevent Club Player Attribute Decrease. Still testing but seems pretty stable for me at this time.

Thank you for your job. GOOD!!

Cant enable the update script, getting an error on line 13

If its fairly simple, could you write out how to update the version number, if that is the issue

Looks like they have released 20.0.4. Will new need update. Updates are non-trivial but presumably shouldn't take too much time (if not next 4 hours then will not be until at least 28 hours from this post)

Updated to 20.0.4:
Added a number of checks to report version mismatch and other errors like not loading table lua script. Also documented procedure in the first post on how to update the table manually (at least works with current version)

Can't edit Competition attributes

Can't edit Competition attributes

What exactly is the issue. Is it that they display correctly but do not take effect? If so then unfortunately that is probably the case as I think these may not be actively used in game but are display only in most cases.

Also not everything is tested in fm20. Squad Status is probably not working because they changed player classifications from fm19. May need to wait for FM 2020 Editor to be released to better understand. Same with Media policies.

hi sir..sifu..the game been updated sadly..what the heck

Updated. Its not really unexpected since the game is still in beta. I'd rather get the beta and bug fixes now than fixes later and no game. Also thanks to @Roolek for getting me to formalize the update procedure as that made it much easier.

[danielyee]

Thanks master..that was quick draw..imagine the full version arrives..sir..thanks..
