Q. Why are there two different xml files?

A. As the folder names suggest one xml file contains club specific ad-boards and one doesn’t. This has been done as in previous patches people have complained that they see clubs specific ad-boards in cup competitions. Due the way the xml file there is no way around this using code. The only solution would be the use of two files.

For example say you are Arsenal and want Arsenal specific ad-boards in the Premiership and the Champions league ad-boards in the Champions League you would follow these steps;

1. Load up FM with the Club Specific config file in use
2. Play your league game (Arsenal ads will show)
3. Before your Champions League game Save and quit FM14
4. Replace the club specific config file with the non club config file.
5. Re boot FM14
6. Play your Champions League match (Champions League ads will show)

How to code ad-boards


Open up the ads.xml file located My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2014/ads

First of all you have to load the graphics into FM14 which is done by the following piece of code the near the bottom of the xml file

<!-- Hibernian adboards -->
<record id="2191" path="pictures/ads/europe/clubs/scotland/spl/hibernian/puma"/>
<record id="2192" path="pictures/ads/europe/clubs/scotland/spl/hibernian/skysports"/>
<record id="2193" path="pictures/ads/europe/clubs/scotland/spl/hibernian/espn"/>

What this code means

<!-- Hibernian adboards --> - Just identifies to whoever is reading the xml file what this piece of code is for competitions/clubs..

<record id="2191" - Assigns a unique id number to specific ad-board (you makes this number up but make sure it is not already in use elsewhere in the config)

path="pictures/ads/europe/clubs/scotland/spl/hibernian/puma"/> - Location of the ad-board which has just been given a unique id number

The next bit of code determines where the previously assigned ad-boards will be displayed
<!-- Hibernian, rabcp -->
<list id="17">
<integer value="2191"/>
<integer value="2192"/>
<integer value="2193"/>
<integer value="2191"/>
<integer value="2192"/>
<integer value="2193"/>
.
.
.
<integer value="2191"/>
<integer value="2192"/>
<integer value="2193"/>
</list>

What this code means

<!-- Hibernian, rabcp --> - Just identifies to whoever is reading the xml file what this piece of code is for competitions/clubs along with the author of the adboards.

<list id="17"> - Unique id of the competition/clubs the ad-boards are for

<integer value="2191"/> - Positions adboard number 2191 in to be displayed for games in the assigned competition/club. This code needs repeated 44 more times as there are 45 adboard spaces on the maximum pitch size

C'è qualcuno con li ha inseriti nella beta di Fm2015?

Se si, con quale esito?

[Floro Flores]

Non funzionano su fm15

[Mark Silver]

Non funzionano su fm15

Sai se sono già al lavoro per questa edizione?

[olivar]

Sicuramente dai...

[salento87]

Su Soutitoutsi dicono che dovrebbero funzionare, provate a cancellare la cache entrando su impostazioni dalla schermata iniziale (e non dal save) e poi riavviate il gioco.

Comunque uscirà sicuramente una versione 2015, lo hanno confermato.

[Floro Flores]

Allora io avevo letto sul forum di sort che non erano riusciti a farli funzionare in nessun modo. Poi ieri giocando ho notato che a me vanno senza problemi... Non so se magari si riferissero al 2D, ma nel mio 3D funzionano...

[Stef81]

Anche a me vanno (tra l'altro alcuni campi/competizioni non ricordo adesso sono con gli ad a rotazione). Ho notato anche che c'è qualche errore penso sia dovuto a qualche nuovo id.

[Mark Silver]

Aspetto il pack nuovo

Notizie di una edizione 2015?
