Very cool! As you pointed out, Squirrel Plays did beat you to the punch. Because of this, I will be comparing the two programs. And, after using both programs, here's some feedback: What I Found to be Better than Squirrel's: - I liked all the different sorting options within each column - I found the color coded grades to be much more readable than the plain white one on Squirrel's - I liked the tactics feature, even though it feels underutilized - The file save feature is new compared to squirrel's. I may not use it that much since I don't feel the need to come back to old files, but it's nice to have I guess. Bugs: - On your table tutorial, the text for the "Overall Best Role" is the same tutorial text as the "Best Role (Position(s))" - The individual player view screen tutorial didn't really work. The first box was halfway off-screen and when I clicked next it closed out the player and went back to the table. I could at least read the second box, but clicking finish closed the player tab again. Room for Improvement (more like a wish list): - The biggest turn off for me was not having editable weighting. I really enjoy the ability to adjust role attribute weighting, and that really is a dealbreaker for me to not have that. - I would really like a "replace file" button, so I don't have to delete then re-import - Is it not possible to detect what view the user is importing based on the types of columns? Then you could just use the system file name as your file name streamlining the process. - Just overall streamlining. In squirrels I only need 4-7 clicks on the website to get a new file imported. On your site I would need 9-14 clicks + typing in file name + deleting old file wait time + 2x page load wait time (I'm always on a table view from when I was last looking at a file) - The fact that EVERY TIME you sort the table you're sent to a new page makes your back arrow useless/clogs up your page history - Why not have the ability to sort "Best Role (Position(s))" and "Overall Best Role"? - The biggest selling point of this web app over squirrel's is the tactics feature, but I don't think you are making the best use of it. - I would love to see a "Best Role (Position(s)) in Tactic" column - I would like to have the ability to have the positions in the position column only show positions in your tactic. Yes, you can select positions at the moment, but there is still clutter. (Player has M(RC), but I only use M(C)

If you want to save files for the web app I feel local storage would be much faster and I wouldn't need to sign in Hopefully, I haven't said too many negative things about your app. I do genuinely think it's a good app, and the many hours of work put into it are quite obvious.

[@FMDataLab]

Really appreciate the great feedback. You've made some really good points. I've already started work on the weighting feature you'll be glad to hear!

[@tabletbrothers3477]

@@FMDataLab I'll be weighting!... oh that was awful

[@FMDataLab]

@@tabletbrothers3477 The "weight" is over. I've just added the ability to edit attribute weights in the latest FMDataLab release. My recent video covers all the updates.

This is sooo awesome! I have been using this all day. Makes it so much easier for me to find the right players. Easy to use and easy to understand. Thank you!!!

[@TheArccam]

This is insane, and will help a lot of people out with their squad building. I was hoping you'd make views for previous versions (it seems like if I try and use this for my FM21 save, the view doesn't show. I am attached to that save in particular and still play it to this day). If you can, hopefully allow other people who haven't got the newer version to use your website.

[@FMDataLab]

I could add this feature to the roadmap, could be useful.

[@GodAtum]

it would be great to do it the opposite way. make the best tactic with the players you have

[@FMDataLab]

I actually had something like that in my original spreadsheet, so is something I could potentially add in the future.

[@Y15ARG]

Just came across your work through FM Arena My big question is whether or not your weightings take account of the in-game positional ability score (1-20)?

[@FMDataLab]

No, I don't believe that value is available in any of the table views, as that value is position-by-position basis for a player, and not a value on the player as a whole. I just use the `Position` column to determine which positions a player can play. So if a player only `Competent` at a position, I unfortunately don't have that information available.

[@Echoes-kx2sz]

Followed this tutorial and using the Squad view, yet getting the error: Missing the following Required columns for processing: Left Foot, Right Foot. (and no column has prefered foot and if i add it i still get the same error).

[@FMDataLab]

This has been the 2nd time this has been raised, not sure what the issue is and have been unabled to recreate. It seems that exported .html have the "Left Foot" & "Right Foot" columns as "Left" & "Right" but the cells for those rows have no data, where it should have values like "Very Strong", "Weak", "Reasonable" etc. My suggestions would be; - Ensure you are using FM24 (If you have an FM23 save ported over to FM24, that might potentially cause an issue?) - Delete the view and redownload the view and import it again (The columns in the list should have "Left Foot" & "Right Foot", you can also check the exported .html file and ensure it's not just "Left" & "Right") - Customise the view, remove the "Left" & "Right" columns and replace with "Left Foot" & "Right Foot" (Click on view > Custom > Customise Current View, then in the "Filter" tab select "General" and "Left Foot" & "Right Foot" should be there, if not then that will be the issue) - If you are using a custom skin, revert back to the default skin (and repeat the above steps if necessary) - Check if you create a new save and repeat the steps above, does the issue persist. - Use the English (UK) language before export. And for all of the above, be sure that you clear you cache afterwards (Preferences > Reset > Clear Cache) and double check if the issue persists. And a few questions to see if i can find the source of this issue and find a fix or suggest a solution; - Do you have attribute masking enabled? - Are you using a custom database? - Do you have a custom skin? (especially when you initially imported the view) - Do you have the in-game editor enabled? - What version of the game is your save? (are you using the base version or the 24.3.0 update) - What game mode are you using? (Career, Create-a-club etc.) - By default, what is your in-game language? - Is this an issue on all views or a specific view? - Don't think this should really matter, but which store did you purchase FM24 from (Steam, Epic Store etc.)?

[@FMDataLab]

Also, think I found your file, and it seems that the attribute values also weren't exported correctly (all the cells for those columns for all players were empty)

[@FMDataLab]

Hey, I have added a quick fix to work with the "Left"/"Right" columns if the "Left Foot" & "Right Foot" columns are missing. However, as mentioned in my previous comment, the attribute values are all missing, so you may need to try another export and double check the exported .html that is has all the expected data before uploading.

[@shaunhoward7876]

This is totally awsome. Is there a way to search for wonder kids?

[@thekillerpro6142]

You can do that in game anyways

[@user-me5xs7nq8r]

I allways get the error message: Missing the following Required columns for processing: Left Foot, Right Foot. Please ensure when exporting data that you use the "English" language, when exporting in another language, FMDataLab cannot parse the column names from the table in the .html file. Please, also ensure you are using the correct views as provided by FMDataLab when exporting data from Football Manager. Ensure there is players within your file and that you've used the provided views before exporting your data from Football Manager. If you are using a custom skin within Football Manager, that can also causes issues, so try reverting to the default skin when exporting data.. And in View squad is no data of prefer foot.

[@FMDataLab]

Thanks for raising this. I think I found your file, looks like your exported file has the column names for "Left Foot"/"Right Foot" as just "Left" & "Right" This could be an issue if you are using a custom skin, or you may need to clear your cache. I have double checked the squad view, on a new save, and it should have the columns as "Left Foot" & "Right Foot". If there no data ever, then that might be an issue in your save/game/skin, but there is sometimes no data if you have attribute masking enabled. A few things to check; You are using FM24 You are exporting while using the English Language You are using the default skin Try deleting the fmdatalab_squad_view, redownload and import again (while using the default skin) You could also try and remove the "Left" & "Right" columns by customising the view, and try to add them back manually, this may bring back the correct names and values? You have cleared cache (Preferences > Reset > Clear Cache)

[@user-me5xs7nq8r]

@@FMDataLab I tried the default skin and 2 skins Mustermann, Statman but only the Statman skin shows Left Right foot but all View save files still have the error as above.

[@FMDataLab]

Hmm, at a bit of a loss here, this is the first instance where I've come across this issue in over a thousand different files. I will look into handling just `Left` & `Right` column names, but if they never have any values it seems like there is some depper issue that needs resolved in your game, if you have already tried all the solutions above and clearing the cache each time.

[@FMDataLab]

Hey, I have added a hot fix so you can now view your file if you reload FMDataLab, obviosuly, the caveat being that there will not be any details on each players strength with either foot as the cells for Left/Right are empty in your file. But at least now you can see the table without the error message. But there still seems there is a problem with your export, and not just the "Left Foot"/"Right Foot" columns being replaced with "Left" & "Right", but without any data in the cells. While the column for Nationality exists, all the cells are empty, where you would expect it to always have data for that column. (2nd Nationality works fine) So it's most likely some of issue with the export in your game in general/your save, rather than the view. Could be as something as simple as using an older machine that doesn't handle the exports very well.

[@user-me5xs7nq8r]

@@FMDataLab Thank you very much, I have been able to load data files such as squad or player search, but the short list file still has the case of left and right feet.

I changed my skin to the default one and also tried different lists from Shortlist to Players in Reach (obviously with the imported views). Have you got an idea what the problem can be? Really cool project!

[@FMDataLab]

Hi! Are you using the English Language in Football Manager when exporting? The exported .html file has a table and the column headers are different for each language.

[@FMDataLab]

Just had a look at what I think is your file, it looks like it's in German. But you've highlighted that I should probably add checking your in-game language to that error message, thanks for spotting :)

[@felix597]

@@FMDataLab yes mate, that should ne my data, so I have to switch the game to english language and it should work?

[@FMDataLab]

Yeah, you can just switch to English before you export, then switch back to German after your export. At some point in the future I do plan on mapping all language columns to work for all in-game languages. But, sorry for the hassle in the interim.

[@felix597]

@@FMDataLab thanks mate, it worked out when changing the language :)
