(转贴)README for Tapani's CM0102Patcher v2.11beta and CM Staff Adjuster
=================================================================
A. General
----------
First; I am not affiliated with Eidos or SIgames. This patcher
and staff adjuster are completely unsupported and are used on your
own risk.
The patcher and staff adjuster are free software and are not
allowed to be sold.
The sections B-E describes the patcher, and F briefly describes
the staff adjuster.
B. Prerequisites
----------------
This patcher expects you to have the last official patch (3.9.68)
installed. Also this has been only tested, in a very limited way,
using the english version of the game.
Thus, a word of advice: BACKUP YOUR CM0102.EXE BEFORE USING THIS!
C. Changes
----------
This patch allows (hopefully) the following bugfixes/changes to CM0102:
1. The patch slows down the mouse-click repeat rate when offering
contracts.
On fast machines, it is virtually impossible to click only
once without the gui registering several clicks.
This patcher allows the addition of a small delay loop into
the GUI-control, thus making it possible to adjust the values
a single step at the time (as intended).
Too bad for those with very slow machines the contract screen
might get too sluggish. However nobody has complained about this
so far :-)
2. This patch sets the in-game start year to 2005 instead of 2001.
3. This patcher allows you to exit the game by the top right corner X.
There will be no confirmation question, so be careful!
Especially when the game crashes during online play (which it
unfortunately does sometimes) it is more convenient to just close
the CM window than to kill the task via task manager.
4. This patch allows the server in a multiplayer game to force the game
to continue by pressing the PageDown key. This handy when your online
league is ridden with players that slow down the game.
Especially handy is this when a client crashes during a match, and it
seems impossible to proceed. Pressing PgDn will cause the computer to
finish the ongoing game(s). Likewise, this happens even if the client
hasn't crashed! Use with caution!
5. The speed of the game has been improved. During matches the "slow" match
speed option roughly corresponds to the normally "very fast" one.
6. This patch allows the English Northern Premier League to be human playable.
I am a great fan of LLM and added this feature mainly for my own enjoyment.
In order to play in NPD choose Wales as a background league in addition to
England + Conference (foreground).
Also in this version three teams are promoted from the English Conference
and the NPD is drectly below the conference (being the 6th league in ENG).
7. Probably more things I have already become so accustomed to that I no
longer remember the original... :-) Like the slight color change on the
"Unh" signs on unhappy players...
D. Known Bugs
-------------
1. Some occasional odd team might end up in World Cup 2006 (eg Chinese Taipei).
This is because of lack of WC06 qualifier information.
2. Welsh premier league is no more, it has been replaced with Northern Premier League.
3. If the players are "too old" it is most likely because you are using an updated
database whose authors has artificially modified the ages by setting incorrect
birth years. Feel free to use my staff adjuster to correct this.
4. All contracts has expired! The contracts in the database are most likely adjusted
to the year 2001 start date. Use my staff adjuster to correct this.
E. Uninstall?
-------------
Copy back your backupped cm0102.exe or run the patcher on the patched executable again.
F. CM Staff Adjuster
--------------------
This tool allows you to adjust your cm 01/02 player database for a start in the 05/06
season. If you previously started in the season 01/02, you should move all your contracts
four years ahead (this is the default). If you have used a unofficial update that has
adjusted the players' ages then you need to undo this by youngening them by for instance
four years, depending on the unofficial update you are using.
You can (hopefully) undo any changes made by the staff adjuster by adjusting with a
negative number of years. That is, if you moved your contracts 3 years ahead, you can undo
that by moving them -3 years ahead.
The staff adjuster requires you to choose your staff.dat file, usually residing inside the
Data/ directory in your CM dir.
---------
Also, this is the first sortof official beta, I would be happy to hear about your experiences.
My email will be shown by the patcher.
Have fun!
