Re: Synchronated Updates

Can t even paste player names at the moment, have to type them, since websites have lower case characters and SWOES pastes them as lower case (which SWOS doesn t like).

Just paste the player list into Excel and use the Upper function to convert them to upper case, then you can copy paste without any problems and I m sure it s much quicker than typing everything.

I will try that.
Previously I have tried several solutions, including a Firefox modification which causes pages to be displayed in all caps - unfortunately the information taken to the clipboard for some reason retains the lowercase characters.

edit: the Excel thing does work. I will try it to see if the process is any quicker (I type very quickly anyway) or more comfortable

That would be spectacular. Please, someone who can program, do it!

I think you have the moral authority to request this little option (to be able to past name+7 values all together). E.g. you could ask whiteulver (by the way, his editor already import csv files, but containing just name, nationality, position - he could add skills and price).

So, to sum up what we have said so far... There is some work that probably who update a league has to do: selecting the 16 players, specifying (in a editor) skin/hair color, numbers and tactic. But some other tasks could be automated: we could export/convert from Football Manager a list of thousand players including (for each one) name, nationality, position, skills. Then what we need is just one of the following features in a editor:
- Pasting name+nationality+etc. all together.
- Importing the same data from a csv file.
This should be trivial for anyone who know how to program an editor. This should be requested (in the Editing/Programming sub-forum? it looks dead... or personally to the programmers?): I can of course do it, but anyone has more chances than me in succeeding.

All good ideas. I will try to talk to Whiteulver but last time we spoke he didn t have much free time for the SWOS Editor.

Oh, and new update is online with Belgium and Ukraine leagues added.

Hey sync i made a whdload version from your updates

Let s hope he will do it: it (especially expanding the csv import to skills) should be very quick for him.

I have no idea what that is

Ah right. That s how my offline config works (much easier for immediately accessing and checking edited data files). Its name makes sense now, thanks.
