Funny you say that, I actually had a similar idea to find the best players outside the top 5 leagues, can see how they'd compete in the Premier League, just haven't gotten around to actually running a simulation.

@@FMDataLab that would be awesome to see!

I hadn't actually thought about Fantasy Draft, as it's not actually something I've tried, but I can maybe look into this, thanks for the suggestion!

Not a bad idea, could definitely look into a feature to toggle trajectories off & on. That's also a great suggestion, I'll keep that feature in mind, though I think a lot of wages could be dependent on the league they are playing, a player rated x playing in somewhere with a lower reputation like, Latvia, could be much different to the same rated player in the English Premier League.

Yeah, someone else had also raised this about an older FM and the FM24 views not being backwards compatible, so I'll have a look into this. You can maybe try to create your own view with all the required columns in the interim, here are all the columns I used; - Name - Position - Age - Height - Weight - Player Status Information (General) - Club - Division - Nationality - Second Nationality - International Caps - International Goals - Personality - Media Handling Style - Wage - Transfer Value - Left Foot - Right Foot - Strongest Area of Game - Weakest Area of Game - ...Then add all attributes - On the left side of the customise view dialog there should be a dropdown to select "Attributes", then you can highlight all and click the `Add` button. The order of these don't matter, just that they exist. It's possible that some columns could be missing/have a different column name in the exported HTML file, so you may still get an error on FMDataLab, you can try it on the new /upload page, as it will be faster, but let me know how you get on.

@@FMDataLab now that's service! Brilliant thank you... Will give this a go!

Just updated the FMDataLab views .zip file to include folders with views from older Football Manager games, including FM23. You can download the new .zip file here > www.fmdatalab.com/tutorials/download-views

@@FMDataLab you beat me to it...I gave the player search view a go yesterday before you replied and it worked so brilliant that you've now created these for offers...fantastic tool. Have you thought about including statistical analysis using FM stag's calculations? In addition to what you're currently doing... I've always wondered if there was any corellation to attributes with statistics like defensive contributions.... just a thought....

I'm actually currently working on a new table using player stats, Moneyball esque. Although, I might look at a way of combining both the role score table and the new stats table together.

If you click on the globe icon in the top right, then select the "World" tab. Then in the "General" section, click the "Transfers" option to go the the World Transfer screen. Then in the Transfers dropdown, you can select "Youth Intake", then you can select which years youth intake you want to view. Then in the players list, you can select up to 500 players at a time, then right click the selection, & under the "Lists" option, highlight the "Add to shortlist" option, then select the shortlist you want to add the selection to.

Some players are the best player for many roles and positions. To help us make better decisions, it would be a nice feature if the system automatically selects the squad that will generate maximum points, especially for the first 11, according to our tactics.

Absolutely, I do plan on a table view, but with players season statistics, like xG, Goals Per 90 etc. Somewhat similar to "Alex030"'s Moneyball spreadsheet that "Zealand" did a video on a couple of years ago if you've ever come across that? czcams.com/video/yqIXVjCdYks/video.html

I don't believe that FM Touch has the export as web page option.

Where are you getting this error? Somewhere specfically on FMDataLab or within FM24?

@@FMDataLab it was within FMDataLab but I’ve managed to sort it. Thanks. I do have another problem within DataLab where I’ve hidden several collums and can’t see how to un-hide them?

Glad to hear! What was the issue, if you don't mind me asking? I might be able to make a friendlier error message. Above the table, in the top right, there is a "View" button, if you click on it, it will show you all the columns, and you can toggle their visibility there.

@@FMDataLab cheers! When I was saving the exported data from FM, I saved it in a place where I couldn’t get to when it came to attaching the file to FMDataLab or I couldn’t figure it out at least. So I had to click and drop from a the file from my Home Screen if that makes sense? Not sure if it was a html file when I was doing it that way.

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

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.

You can do that in game anyways

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.)?

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)

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.

Yes, I've had that on my roadmap, hopefully will get to this feature soon. Thanks for the suggestion.

The columns visibility is now persisted across all tables, more info in my recent video 🙂

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)

@@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.

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.

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.

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

Thanks for checking out FMDataLab! The colours are mostly just a gradient going from red to green. So it goes from shades of red, to orange, to yellow, to green. 1 - 5.49 is shades of red 5.5 - 9.49 is shades of orange 9.5 - 12.49 is shades of yellow 12.5 - 20 is shades of green (bit more of wider range as the highest score you'll really see is 17) Yes, an export of the table has been on my roadmap, for the reason you've explained, think it will be helpful for further analysis! Funnily enough, I've also been working on an algorithm to predict players trajectories for a few weeks now, so you'll be able to view each individual players role trajectory based on the median trajectory of other players at that age, for that role that my algorithm has calculated (will have a video on how I've gone about this). This will be in the next release you'll be happy to hear!

You'll be glad to know that you can now export the table data to a .csv file! You can also view players trajectories, more info in my new vid 🙂

is it fun to cheat ?

@@mrslotved nope

@@mrslotved this is a single player game dude. let people play how they want.

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.

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 :)

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

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.

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

Thanks for the great suggestion! I'll implement this in the next update!

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.

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!

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

@@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.

Thank you for the amazing work and passion for the game mate!
