I'm getting this error when trying to export a teamfile. Is this normal right now? Or do GMs need to upload manually to a server? I know Cole mentioned some of this, but I'm not sure of the current status.

Why is it maximum 8 foreigners in the Swedish Hockey League? I play with Luleå Hockey and they have 11 foreigners and I want to play with all the players at the beginning in the game, but it will not work then :/ Could you change this?

How do you assign logos/jersey to expansion teams ?

Why do I have to have a second GM ??

When I create a new league, there always is a second GM - I can create myself as a GM (not quite easy as in OOTP but okay), but when I delete Joe Average a new GM appears, and when I delete that GM a new one appears ... and on and on.

Why ???????

Am I missing something, or is it impossible to find career advanced stats on players? That's kind of a big thing not to have available.

progen · 09-29-2015, 04:18 PM

How do you print the standings, stats, etc. Can't find it in the game.

DirkGildun · 09-29-2015, 04:35 PM

I'm trying to mimic an 8-team custom league (0 Conferences, 0 Divisions) that I've played for the last 2 years (using other software). That league has a 42-game schedule (each team has 3 Home and 3 Away vs the other 7 teams).

When I look at the possible custom league configurations in FHM2, I see an 8-team league (0 Conferences, 0 Divisions) with a 78-game schedule. That makes no sense (not being a multiple of 14 or 7).

When I created a test 8-team custom league to see what would happen, an 85-game schedule was generated, which also doesn't make any sense (although 84 games would).

What gives?

Is there a "Can't Be Fired" button that I can't find?

I'm running an Expansion Team, which, not surprisingly is struggling and rumors have begun to swirl I'm on the verge of getting fired.

grossrr · 09-29-2015, 04:43 PM

I tried to go to the Manual for FHM and it asked for user name and password. I used the name and password for this forum and it didn't work. Is there another name and password to get to the manual. If yes, how do I set it up? grossrr

Any specific reason why the schedule for the 1994-95 season only has 38 games? It was the year of the first lockout, but that season actually had 48 games.

No, it should be possible to upload the team files to an ftp server. First click the "Create" button to create a team file, then click "Upload" to upload the team file. Please make sure that the ftp address, username and password are correct.

Don't create a second GM on the "Add Manager Dialog", just change the existing GM and continue.

I can't get it to work. Even my working baseball league that I used as a test in FHM2 gives me an error. Thanks for taking a look:

Please remove the first / from the ftp address and try again.

It tried to do something that time at least, but I still got "upload not possible."

With regards to trades, does the AI know when it's trading with itself and when it's trading with a human?

Ferrisrox · 09-29-2015, 05:39 PM

Nobody knows if there is a "Can't Be Fired" option?

Seems like a major flaw that coaches and GMs are getting fired midway through the first season of an Expansion.

krownroyal83 · 09-29-2015, 05:40 PM

I don't even see the option on the main screen for an online league. Where is it?

Have you tried playing in 'Commissioner Mode'? I know at the start of the game you're offered the 'can't be fired' option, not sure if it's available when you've started the game.

progen · 09-29-2015, 05:42 PM

Just took over an expansion team, and when I look at personnel, I am listed as the GM and Coach. Is there anyway to change that so I'm just the General Manager. I hired a Coach(commish mode), and he shows in my list of personnel, but can't figure out how to get him to show above that list in the Head Coach tab?
