Extra config file(s) doesnt affect the game

Post by adawxawx »

When I use customized databases, I cant seem to get the salary caps, future transfers, injuries, and all of those other goodies that the ECF creates. Only the default DB can get that stuff working.

Can anybody tell me why this is happening and give me some help?

:dunno:

Ah! I can get it working, but I have to copy the DB into the default folder; I cant use the 'user folder'...
