Merry Christmas

Hi guys, just to let you all know this afternoon I will be travelling to spend Christmas with some of my family then on Friday I will be travelling to the coast for a week or so for a holiday. During this time I won't have much of a Intenet connection so responses to any questions may be slow.

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year :)

New Update Out Now (DP2.00 Compatible)

Hi guys, it longer than I had hoped, but the new update is out now for BLES/BLUS/BLAS. It is fully compatible with Data Pack 2.00 (if you haven't already download the data pack before adding this), contains every file again (so you will need to say yes when asked to overwrite) and contains...

Serie B
All kits, managers, rival clubs and stadiums have now been added. A big thanks to Zsolt for letting me use his team imports to add the kits quickly.

Bundesliga
All teams have correct kits, managers, emblems, rival clubs and stadiums. Almost all players have been added (10 or so reserve players are missing) with correct stats, nationalities and positions. There are currently only a few appearances done.

Other European Teams
Celtic and Brondby have been added, no kits for Brondby yet, but the players are all correct for both teams as are the emblems.

Campeonato Brasileiro
Thanks to Julio Tonello all players now have the correct name. This is only for the original teams and not Copa Libertadores/Copa Sudamericana duplicate teams. I'm still hopeful that they will all be fixed in a future Konami data pack.

National Teams
Kits have been added for Austria, Belgium and Chile.

Classic Teams
As I warned earlier I have started to use some of the classic players to create current players. The rest will be replaced in future updates, the same goes for duplicate NT players.

There are probably a few other things as well that I have forgotten. In the next update I will start fixing any issues with existing kits and add appearances for the Bundesliga players. I will also add Malmo along with two other teams to the Other European Teams, I don't want suggestions, I will decide on them myself in the next few days.

Enjoy, Paul

New Data Pack & My Next Update

Hi guys, as you have probably seen the new Konami data pack has been confirmed to be released today for everyone, if you haven't read about it then you can do so here http://www.pesfan.com/blog/2014/12/15/pes-2015-data-pack-2-dated/ . Now the only damage it will do to what you all currently have is it will move all the duplicate (fake named) NT players back into the NT's instead of the real players. If this is something you can put up with for a couple of days then you can download it as soon as it is out, if it is a issue then don't download it until I release my next update.

The new update has taken a little longer than I expected, currently all the Serie B kits are done, a couple of NT kits have been done and I just have to fix up the stats for 6 Bundesliga teams to have it complete enough to release. Tonight after I get the data pack I will need to fix the damage caused (more for me than for you) and then I can finish off those last 6 teams.

All being well the update will be out in time for the weekend, so a couple of days later than I initially expected.

Cheers, Paul

*Edit*
Just seen thice so it will give me a bit more work to fix...

New Update News

Hi guys, thought it was about time I posted as I have had a few questions about when the new update will be released. To be honest it will be released when it is ready, I have the Bundesliga about 70% complete now plus I wan't to add a few more NT kits. If all goes well then it should be out early next week, however there is one thing that could change that.

Konami are due to release a new data pack this month and there should be news about it in the next day or two, I expect it to be released on the 18th December (although it could be the 24th). If it is confirmed to be the 18th before I release the update, then I will wait and release my next update on the 19th as it isn't worth releasing a update just to release another fixing the data pack damage a couple of days later.

Cheers, Paul

Classic Players (A Reminder/Warning)

Hi guys, hope you are all enjoying last weeks update. Just a little update to let you all know that as from the next update the classic players will be replaced by current players, anyone who has used my OF's in previous years will know I always do this as I don't like retired players in my game.

Since the last update I have done all the Serie B kits and thanks to Julio Tonello all Brazilian League player names have been fixed. I'm just finishing off the four teams people donated to receive and then I will start on the Bundesliga. If all goes well then the next update could be out in just over a week, but I'm not making any promises, it just depends how much time I have between now and then.

Cheers, Paul

New Update Out Now

Hi guys, the new update is out now for BLES/BLUS/BLAS links are on the downloads page. The update contains all the new files as well as everything from the original file, if you already have the original I still suggest overwriting everything as a few files have changed. Sorry but there are no Serie B kits as I had planned, but here is what is in...

SkyBET Championship
All teams now have the correct kits, rivals, stadium & manager, The managers are those that are in the game, so for example Fulham's manager is Felix Magath. I will wait to see if managers are updated in the next data pack, if they are then the new manager will have their name corrected & if not I will change the existing manger to the current one. There are no images for the managers who have been sacked or resigned.

Primeira Liga
All teams now have the correct kit, rivals, stadium & manager. I'm no expert on the the league so if you think I have missed a rival let me know.

National Teams
All player names have been fixed, Argentina, England & Japan have the correct kits, manager & stadium.

Other than that I have improved a few PL kits and cup emblems. I have also recovered a few more preset faces such as Shinji Kagawa.

The next update will be hopefully be out in a couple of weeks, it will have the Serie B kits, more NT kits & the Bundesliga. I will be away from tomorrow until Sunday afternoon, so sorry if replies are slow.

Have a great weekend, Paul

New Update News & Some Input Wanted

Hi guys, thought it was time I should update you all on what to expect in the next update. I don't want to set a date for it's release, but hopefully it will be at some point next week. I'm currently just over half way through fixing the kits, managers, etc for the Championship teams, I will then do the same for the Primeira Liga and Serie B. I have also started fixing the NT player names and will have them all done for the next update, dannythebest spent a few hours fixing them all for me, but there is a bug in team imports so all his work was sadly wasted. Once all that is done I will release the update.

After that I will start creating the teams a few people donated for as well as the Bundesliga teams and fixing the NT kits. In between that to give me a break from doing the same things over and over I will start fixing up the licensed teams managers, stadiums and rivals where needed.

Now for some input from you guys, it is possible to add text to the banners in the crowd for each team. There is space for 4 different ones for each team so I thought rather than me search pictures I would ask you guys what you think should be on them for the teams you support. Let me know in the comments.

The other thing I wanted to ask (unrelated to the OF) was about music for the game, PES 2010 had for me the best soundtrack of any PES. There were plenty of songs and they mostly suited my musical tastes, so ever since then I have had most of those songs on PS3 along with a few others and imported them into each game. I've made the odd change but basically I've had the same songs on PES for 5 years now barring the odd change so I'm looking for any suggestions I should have on PES from you all? That's about all I have to say for now.

Cheers, Paul

PES 2015 Version 1 Out Now (BLES/BLUS/BLAS)

Hi guys, it took a little longer than I expected, but the first version of my OF for PES 2015 is out now for BLES/BLUS/BLAS. Links are on the downloads page, it contains....

Leagues/Cups
All leagues and cups have been renamed and most have the correct emblem. Fake leagues haven't been changed yet, they will be done once I start creating the teams for them. Some emblems aren't perfect yet and will be updated.

Premier League
All teams have been renamed and have the correct emblem. Teams have the correct commentary names where possible. All teams have home, away and gk kits, these are a work in progress, some look better than others. They will be updated so they are perfect in future updates. All teams have the correct manager names with images.

SkyBET Championship
All teams have been renamed and have the correct emblem. Teams have the correct commentary names where possible. Other details will be updated in the next update.

Serie B
All teams have been renamed and have the correct emblem. Kits & other details will be updated in the next update.

Primeira Liga
All teams have been renamed and have the correct emblem. Kits & other details will be updated in the next update.

National Teams
All duplicate players have been renamed, remaining players will be renamed in the next update. Kits & other details will be fixed in future updates.

That's about it for now, remember this is still a work in progress. A quick note on kits and emblems, just like last year there is a delay while they load, although it isn't as long as PES 2014.

Enjoy, Paul

Initial OF

Hi guys, I was going to wait until I had my PS3 copy before posting this, but due to the questions being asked I thought I would post it now, so once I have the game I can crack on with getting things done. The game is released here tomorrow so I will start work and hopefully have something for you all before the end of the weekend, this is what I hope to have done by then....

• All Leagues/Cups renamed with the correct emblems
• All teams renamed with the correct emblems
• All fake NT players renamed & duplicates removed
• Home, Away & GK kits for all Premier League teams

If I have time I will do my best to fix as many manager names as possible as well. After that I will continue fixing all the other kits, stadiums, etc before starting on replacing the fake teams. Earlier today I did get my PC copy of the game, so I have been able to have a look around the edit mode to work out what is/isn't possible, so here is a little bit of info.

Team Emblems

Thankfully this year the limit is 300 which is more than enough to make sure that every team has the correct emblem, so no more Championship teams with the league emblem.

League/Cup Emblems

The limit is 50 which again is more than enough to make sure every league/cup has the correct emblem.

Kits

Just like last year the limit is 600 which may be a problem, I have totalled up all the unlicensed/fake club teams & it comes to 141, so to make the home, away and GK kits for each of those teams it will require 423 of them, plus then there are the unlicensed NT's so there may not be much room for 3rd/4th/CL kits. I will investigate this further once I have started editing.

Managers

It is possible to add images of managers, the limit is 300 which won't be enough to do every one, but I will do as many as possible.

Something I will need from anyone who has the BLUS and BLAS versions of the game is the code that I need to convert to. Anyone who has these copies of the game if you could copy any PES 2015 save file from your PS3 to a USB drive then look at it on a PC to see what the code is it would be greatly appreciated.

That's about it for now, please be patient from tomorrow as the more questions I have to answer the slower I will be at editing.

Cheers, Paul

PES 2015 PS3 Option File - Final Plans

Hi guys, as you are all probably aware last week saw the end of the embargo for PES 2015's preview code, if you missed all the news then I suggest checking out www.winningelevenblog.com and www.pesfan.com as they have lots. Glen The Magpie and DJ Daymos have had a chance to test a few things out in edit mode you can read about what they found out here http://www.pesworld.co.uk/2014/10/pes-2015-edit-mode-details.html Here is what I plan to do for my OF and how it will work, a lot of this I posted in previous posts, but I thought I would confirm it all in one place.

The first thing I will do is create a base option file that will include the following...

• All unlicensed team names corrected (& commentary names added where possible)
• All unlicensed team kits/emblems fixed
• All unlicensed league/cup names corrected
• All unlicensed league/cup emblems fixed
• All fake NT player names corrected
• All unlicensed manager names fixed
• Corrected stadiums for every team

The main reason for this is it is still not clear how the the weekly Konami update will impact OF's, the only thing there that could possibly be messed up is the fake NT players when/if NT's are updated, but this won't be every week so it shouldn't be a problem. I can't guarantee that everything will be done straight away, but it will all get done, a lot depends on how early I get a copy of the game.

After that I will turn my attention to the three fake leagues (there is no fake Division 2 this year). For my own personal use I wan't the Bundeliga for Europe, Liga MX for America and A-League or J-League for Asia. If the league can be reduced to 10 teams (which I doubt will be possible) it will be the A-League, if not it will be the J-League. These leagues are the main issue when data packs are released so each set of teams will be released as imports that you can import back into your game any time they get messed up.

Doing it this way means that if you don't want a particular league you can choose not to import it and create a different one yourself, I may also make other leagues depending on how much time I have. I'm also open to suggestions for any other teams you would like to see?

If you want to guarantee that I make a team then make a AU$10 donation here http://bit.ly/1u1mVuv then send me a email with the team name and I will guarantee to make them. That's about it for now, I will post more as I get more info.

Cheers, Paul

Indonesian Super League & Brighton

Hi guys, just thought I would let you all know there are a couple of new things to download, they are....

ISL
I have finally uploaded the files for the ISL version of v3.2, if you prefer the ISL to the J-League then add the regular v3.2 followed by the ISL files. Thanks for your patience with this one.

Brighton
I have also added links to download a Brighton team import thanks to SwallowTattoo's donation. It includes the 2014/15 squad plus the 2014/15 home, away, 3rd & gk kits.

Thanks for the donations over the last 24 hours or so, as a team we have nearly reached our $3,000 target!! It's not to late to donate here http://bit.ly/1u1mVuv

Cheers, Paul

Relay For Life

Currently at Relay for Life, I've walked15kms so far, would love more donations. Still have this long to go....

PES 2015 Editing News Next Week

Hi guys, on 15th October all the details regarding edit mode will be released for PES 2015, this will let me know what I can and can't do for you all. Getting this information earlier than in previous years will make planning and preparation much easier meaning I can hopefully get things out to you all much quicker.

Thanks to those of you who have made donations to Relay For Life for me so far, would love to see some more before Saturday though. If you would like to donate you can do so here http://bit.ly/1u1mVuv all to help the fight against cancer.

Cheers, Paul

More PES 2015 Plans

Hi guys, first up in case you missed it the BLAS version of the final PES 2014 update can now be downloaded, sorry again for the delay. It's just over a week until I take part in Relay For Life and I haven't raised much money, so I have decided that if my donations get to $500 or above by 11th October then as well as creating the team exports for PES 2015 I will also release a base OF for PS3 that will fix the following...

• All unlicensed team names corrected
• All unlicensed team kits/emblems fixed
• All unlicensed league/cup names corrected
• All unlicensed league/cup emblems fixed
• All fake NT player names corrected

This will allow for a simple base that you easily import any extra teams I create into, you can make the donations here http://bit.ly/1u1mVuv any amount you can spare ($2 is the minimum) will be greatly appreciated. This link should work for everyone, but if you are unable to make it there then let me know and I will provide a alternate method.

Cheers, Paul

PES 2015 Plans

Hi guys, I hope you are all enjoying the PES 2015 Demo and my final PES 2014 update. Before I get into the main reason for this post I would just like to reassure BLAS users that the final update is coming, I'm about 50% through the conversion and it will be uploaded at some point over the weekend and then I will upload the ISL update for all versions. I still haven't played the demo, but will do so tonight and will post my thoughts sometime next week.

Now onto my PES 2015 plans, every year around July as I'm busy updating transfers and kits I start thinking about the new game and what I will do. Last year around this time I was pretty sure I wouldn't do a OF for PES 2014, but then I realised how much I would miss it and decided to continue. Even though I have always edited PES for myself I started releasing OF's from PES 2010 and have done so each year since. This year I'm thinking a little differently, so at this stage I won't be releasing a full option file, but I enjoy editing too much to give up completely so I will do something a little different instead.

I have two main reasons for my change of plans the main one being the amount of time it takes to create and maintain the OF, I don't want to release something half arsed or start a OF only not to finish it or stop updating it. I have always taken great pride in releasing updates right up to the start of the new game/season and I don't want to stop now. The second reason is the weekly updates from Konami that will happen this year, obviously until more news is released we don't know how this will impact OF's, but I hope my plans will stop this being a real issue.

What I'm plan to do is just create team imports, so instead of adding a complete file you will just be able to import the teams you want into your game, I will create imports for unlicensed in game teams so you can quickly import the kits/emblems for them. This means that even if the Konami updates mess up the edits each time you can just import the effected teams again each time rather than me having to fix everything every week. It will also give you all the freedom to create the game the way you want it rather than how I like it by changing what you want and exporting it to import back into your game after each Konami update.

Also with the return of the stadium editor I will create stadiums as well as long as the option is still there to export/import them so you will all be able to choose which stadiums you want in your game. Hopefully unlike PES 2013 there is no limit so we can have as many extra stadiums as we like.

At the moment this will all be for PS3, I most likely won't get a PS4 for 12 months, but if this changes then you can all expect PS4 content as well as PS3.

In regards to teams there are ones I will most likely make no matter what such as all the Bundesliga teams, but I'm open to suggestions, any team from any era. All suggestions are welcome, but if you want me to guarantee to create them the you need to make the following donations here http://bit.ly/1u1mVuv

AU$10 Any team created for PES2015 (PS3) with kit, emblem, players with correct stats and at least correct hairstyle, skin colour and boots accessories

AU$20 Any team created for PES 2014 and PES2015 (PS3) with kit, emblem, players with correct stats and at least correct hairstyle, skin colour and boots accessories

These donations need to be made by 10th October, if you can't make the donation throught that link then let me know and I will provide a alternate way. I'm sorry to keep asking for these donations, but it is something that is very important to me as my Dad, Grandfather and Father-In-Law have all died from cancer and so anything that can find a cure to this disease helps. Even if you don't want anything in return any donations are most welcome, I think the minimum is AU$2, even looking at just the downloads of the last version last time I checked that would be more than AU$4000 if everyone did that (I understand not everyone can).

That's about all for now, I will post more info on my plans as more details are released.

Cheers, Paul

Final Update (v3.2) Out Now

Hi guys, the final update can now be downloaded for BLES, BLUS and BLAS, as always there were things I hoped to get done but just ran out of time. I would like to thank all of you for pointing out errors and supporting the OF, but special thanks goes to Bhattu Krishna, Erik Durm, Duck No.99, 70y and Anthony Alcantar for the work they have done that has either improved the OF or saved me time to work on other things. Here is what's included in the update which again includes every file...

Transfers
As many transfers as I could possibly do have been done, this included creating 100's of new players and I only wish I had time to create more. The updated list is here http://bit.ly/1ru37iK those transfers in bold text are done and those in regular text are not done. The main reason for this is that the player isn't in the game and I didn't have time to make them, but a few are due to the team already having 32 players.

Line Ups & Squad Numbers
Line ups and squad numbers have been fixed for most teams, if you use a team that I haven't done then you can fix it in edit mode safe in the knowledge that I won't release another update that messes it up again.

Kits
Again Bhattu Krishna has been busy adding more new kits and I have done quite a few as well. I believe that every unlicensed Premier League, Bundesliga, J-League and Championship team now has their 2014/15 kit as well as quite a few unlicensed Liga Zon Sagres and Liga MX teams.

Copa Libertadores 2014 Players
While I was away Bhattu fixed all the remaining names of the Copa Libertadores 2014 players.

Player Appearances
I've added a few new appearances for players I have created and Bhattu has updated lots of player boots and accessories.

ISL
For those of you who prefer the ISL I will upload it in the next few days, sorry for the delay.

So that's about it for this years game, the PES 2015 demo is out tonight so I will give that a few games and then I might start a ML as I haven't played PES for a couple of months. Please remember that if you would like a team made for 2014 and 2015 then you can find the info here http://bit.ly/1DwXSDA

Cheers, Paul

Final Update News

Hi guys, just a quick post to let you all know that I'm still working on the final update. Still trying to fix all the line ups and squad numbers, once that is done I will release each version as it is ready.

Thanks for your patience, Paul

Team Imports

Hi guys, first up Happy PES 2015 Demo Day!!! The demo should be available from the PSN store sometime in the next few hours, hopefully I will be able to squeeze in a few games tonight after doing more editing. The final update is progressing nicely, 99% of kits are done, and now I'm just working on creating as many missing players as possible and fixing up the line ups/squad numbers. I don't have an exact day for release as yet, but it will be sometime Monday.

Now onto the main reason for my post, in 23 days I will be taking part in Relay For Life, a 24 hour walk to raise money for cancer research. I have received a few donations so far which I'm very greatful for, but I want to raise more, any amount you can spare is great, but this is what I will do for the following donations....

AU$20 - I will create any team not in the OF for you that can be imported over any unlicensed team including kits, emblem and correct players with correct stats and at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories. I will also create them for PES 2015 once it is released.

AU$5 - I will fix the appearances for every player for any team in the OF with at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories.


Donations can be made here http://fundraising.cancer.org.au/site/TR/RelayforLife/CCNSW?px=1018858&pg=personal&fr_id=1860 Once you have made your donation send me a email with the team you want and I will let you know when to expect it. If you want to donate but can't make it through that link then email me and I will give you a alternate way to donate.


Cheers, Paul

I'm Back!!!

Hi guys, just a quick post to say I'm back from my trip. While I was away I left the OF in the very capable hands of Bhattu Krishna, it's not normally something I can do, but while I was away he fixed the remaining Copa Libertadores 2014 player names, finished off the remaining Championship kits & updated lots of player boots which is great & I would like to say a massive thank you to him for doing that.

I've gone through Duck No.99's transfer page as well as the comments you have left on here & on my transfers page since I got back & updated my list. Check it & if you think something is missing now is the time to let me know. This week I will fix the team line ups, add as many missing players as possible & update a few more kits, then release the final update for PES 2014. Next week I will announce my plans for PES 2015 & of course the demo for it is out this week :)

Again I would like to remind you all that next month I will be taking part in a 24 hour walk for cancer research & I would love any of you who can spare some money to make donations. Any money donated to me by the usual way will be added plus if you want something special for PES 2014 then here are the options...

AU$20 - I will create any team not in the OF for you that can be imported over any unlicensed team including kits, emblem and correct players with correct stats and at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories.

AU$5 - I will fix the appearances for every player for any team in the OF with at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories

Donations can be made here http://fundraising.cancer.org.au/site/TR/RelayforLife/CCNSW?px=1018858&pg=personal&fr_id=1860 Once you have made your donation send me a email with the team you want and I will let you know when to expect it. If you want to donate but can't make it through that link then email me and I will give you a alternate way to donate.

Cheers, Paul

v3.1 Out Now

Hi guys, v3.1 can now be downloaded for BLES/BLUS, links are on the downloads page. Due to other commitments I didn't get as much done as I would like so this won't be the final version, there will be one more update in two weeks time. The update contains every file so is pretty big so take care when copying to your PS3 making sure every file has loaded before copying and say yes when asked to overwrite. Anyway here is what's included....

Transfers
I have done my best to update every transfer, now some haven't been done as I need to create the player still or because the team is full or the team doesn't have enough players these will be fixed in the next update. You can see the updated list here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hRs7_-vtQz82ppJlx8PAEd2cXKY8dZtLNxyOe7Jbn8w/edit?usp=sharing If you believe I'm missing anything then let me know in the comments.

Lineups & Squad Numbers
These have only been fixed for the Premier League at the moment, it's one of the main reasons there will be another update. It takes about an hour to do each league and I just didn't have time to get them all done sorry.

Kits
There are more new kits, mainly Liga Zon Sagres and Liga MX teams, but there are a few others as well. There will be more to come in the final update, again a big thanks to Bhattu Krishna for doing a lot of them for me.

Moreirense & Banfield
Both teams still don't have all their correct players as yet, again this will be fixed in the final update.

ML Fix
By removing all the other promoted teams the issue with European teams in the Copa Libertadores and South American teams in the Champions/Europa League has been fixed. You will need to start again if your save has this issue.

BLAS/ISL
There is no BLAS version sorry, I just don't have time to convert it sorry. If someone wants to convert it and send me the link then I will post it up, if not you will have to wait for v3.2. There is also no ISL version this time either due to a lack of time again I will make sure there is for v3.2.

That's about it other than a big thanks to Anthony Alcantar for converting all the files to BLUS for me. I will be away for the next week from tomorrow morning, so replies will be slow.

Have a great weekend, Paul

Transfer Window

Hi guys, so the transfer window is now closed for most countries so I thought I would post to let you know I have updated the transfers page here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hRs7_-vtQz82ppJlx8PAEd2cXKY8dZtLNxyOe7Jbn8w/edit?usp=sharing I've added all transfers I'm aware of & it now fully updated by tomorrow, I will update this post once I'm finished.

If you think I'm missing anything or something is incorrect then let me know in the comments.

Cheers, Paul

Some News

Hi guys, just a quick update on my progress for next weeks final update. First up I'm still looking for one or two people to convert the files to BLUS and BLAS for me, I have everything ready to send to anyone who want's to do this so if you interested then email me paulc2478@gmail.com If I have to do it myself it will mean these versions will be delayed until after I get back.

Lots more new kits and transfers are done you can see the updated list of transfers here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hRs7_-vtQz82ppJlx8PAEd2cXKY8dZtLNxyOe7Jbn8w/edit?usp=sharing if you think I'm missing any non-European transfers then let me know.

Finally for today I've counted up the number of players I need to create (new signings/youth players) and it is over 700, now I know I'm not going to get them all done in a week so I will concentrate on creating players for teams that currently don't have many players and will make as many of the others as possible once they are done.

The final update will be released (barring any disasters) next Thursday or Friday.

Have a great weekend, Paul

Some News & Some Help Needed

Hi guys, I thought I would update you all on my progress as well as ask for some help regarding the final version of this years option file.

Some Help
In order to fix the ML issue I had to export all the teams I had edited since v2.8 & import them back in, this has mean't that almost all kits and emblems have changed position meaning the final update will include every file. Converting 700+ files to BLUS and BLAS takes quite a few hours so I'm looking for a couple of people who know how to do this to do it for me. I obviously don't expect this to be done in one go when the final update is ready, so anyone who takes this on will receive the OF as it is now to convert everything and then receive the updated files as I do them.

This means if you are happy to do it you will get the updates before anyone else, if you are interested in doing this then email me at paulc2478@gmail.com.

Final Update (v3.1)
The transfer window closes for most leagues on 2nd September and I'm going away for a week or so on 6th September so the final update will most likely be released on the 5th. Since the last update I have updated 100's more transfers and with the help of Bhattu Krishna have updated more kits and will continue to do so up until release. I will also do my best to fix up the line ups for as many teams as possible as well as add some other things. The transfers page was update a day or two ago so if you think I'm missing any non-European transfers then let me know.

What Happens Next
Once I back from my trip I will make a announcement about my plans for PES 2015, I don't have a PS4 yet so at the moment anything I decide to do for it will be for PS3. Normally I stop editing in September as the new game is released at the end of the month, but this year as PES 2015 isn't coming out until November I thought I would do something extra.

As I have previously posted in October I will be taking part in Relay For Life, a 24 hour walk to raise money for cancer research. I was asking for a AU$50 donation for teams, but I understand this was a bit to high, so instead I have come up with these....

AU$20 - I will create any team not in the OF for you that can be imported over any unlicensed team including kits, emblem and correct players with correct stats and at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories.

AU$5 - I will fix the appearances for every player for any team in the OF with at least the correct skin colour/hairstyle and accessories.

Donations can be made here http://fundraising.cancer.org.au/site/TR/RelayforLife/CCNSW?px=1018858&pg=personal&fr_id=1860 Once you have made your donation send me a email with the team you want and I will let you know when to expect it. If you want to donate but can't make it through that link then email me and I will give you a alternate way to donate.

That's about it for now.

Cheers, Paul

The ML Issue

Hi guys, I had a break from editing yesterday and today I started to test some solutions to the problem of European teams appearing in the Copa Libertadores and South American teams in the Champions/Europa Leagues. I thought maybe the issue was that Betis played in the Europa League last year so I just put them back, but it made no difference to the Copa Libertadores. Next I tried putting all the teams back, this again made no difference so finally I took v2.8 & switched all the teams except Betis and again the problem continued.

So this means that I won't be able to include all the promoted teams unfortunately without breaking the game. I still have a spare South American team so I will use them to create one of the promoted Argentinian teams (probably Banfield). In the non-licensed leagues I can create Koln and Paderborn for the Bundesliga and Moreirense for the Liga Zon Sagres they will just replace the existing teams of Nurnburg, Eintracht Braunschweig and Olhanense instead of being new teams.

The Premier Leagues teams have no issues as they were all already in the the OF and the same goes for the Brazilian and Liga MX teams. It will be a bit of work for me to fix the issues, but shouldn't impact on anything else.

Cheers, Paul

v3.0 Out Now

Hi guys, v3.0 can now be downloaded, links are on the downloads page. It contains.....

J-League
The J-League has been added to the OF with full squads and 2014 kits for most teams, the licensed teams kits can't be updated, but I will fix up the last couple unlicensed teams in the next update. In this version 4 ISL teams replace the licensed J-League teams in the ACL. Big thanks to Erik Durm for doing this for me as well as Muta who's 2013 teams Erik used as a base for the teams.

ISL
If you want to keep the ISL instead of the J-League then there is a second download, add the v3.0 update first then the ISL one. You will have everything else that is new in v3.0, but keep the ISL.

Promoted Teams
Caen, Willem II and Paderborn now have there correct players, remaining teams will be done in the final update, unless....

ML Issue
Some people have reported that European teams are appearing in the Copa Libertadores and South American teams in the Champions League. I gave it a try and got a few European teams in the Copa Libertadores, I don't know exactly what is causing this yet, but it may be due to moving hidden teams into the game. If it is then I will have to remove the promoted teams and put back the original teams.

Kits
Remaining PL kits have been done (West Brom away, Newcastle 3rd & Leicester). There are also a few other kits added and some others that have been improved. Big thanks to Bhattu Krishna again for doing a lot of them for me.

Player Appearances
I have added a few more player appearances, these are all for players I have created. Erik has told me that every J-League player has a appearance, but I haven't had time to check if they are just correct hairstyle and skin colour of full appearances. Once I do I will update the index.

Transfers
Lots more transfers have been done, I have updated the transfers page with everything I'm aware of. Most of these are done, but some still won't be due to squads being full or needing to create the player. I still haven't gone through the Ligue 1 or Other European Teams from Duck No.99's amazing transfers page yet and I would still like help from all of you regarding non European transfers.

Team Lineups
Just like the last update they are still messed up sorry, Again I suggest these quick solutions for the problem...

• When playing ML/League modes fix your line up in the menu at it will be correct for each match.
• If you use a team a lot in Exhibition mode then fix the line up in edit mode so it is correct each time.

They will all be fixed in the final update.

That's about it, I hope you all enjoy it and let me know if there are any issues.

Have a great weekend, Paul

V3.0 & the J-League

Hi guys, I have been away over the weekend, so sorry for the slow replies to your questions. This also means I'm only just starting to look at the work Erik has sent me for the J-League and I know he had a few issues regarding space for kits I need to fix. I will know later tonight how much work I need to do and will update this post as I go.

Due to the number of kits some teams may lose their 3rd kits to make space for the J-League kits as well as the kits I need to add for the promoted teams. As Erik has finished quicker than I expected I probably won't have completed all the players for the promoted teams for the release of v3.0, but hopefully I will be pretty close.

There will be other things included such as more new kits and lots more transfers as well. As I said this post will be updated through tonight as I add Erik's work and I will aim to release v3.0 on Tuesday or Wednesday.

*Update*
Just a quick update, I still have to fix a few more J-League kits so release will be delayed until tomorrow or Friday. Hopefully I will be done by tomorrow night, just depends on how long it takes to convert all the files once I'm done, but either way you will all have it for the weekend.

Cheers, Paul

v2.9 Out Now

Hi guys, v2.9 is now ready for download, it includes.....

Promoted Teams
Koln have their new kits, some teams have last seasons kits and some have no kits yet, I have added emblems for as many teams as possible, but can't do the rest due to the emblem limit. Koln, Cesena, Empoli, Palermo, Cordoba, Deportivo La Coruna and Eibar have the correct players (still some transfers to do), the remaining teams either have some players sone or none at all. Hopefully by the time Erik has finished the J-League I will have them all complete.

Relegated Teams
They have all been moved to the hidden teams so will still appear at random in ML/BAL. The licensed teams still have correct names, emblems and kits, the unlicensed teams (Nurnburg, Braunshweig, Olhanense) still have the correct kits, but default names and emblems. All teams still have the correct players and will continue to have transfers done as they happen.

Kits
There are lots of new kits, a big thanks again to Bhattu Krishna for doing a lot of them for me. All Premier League teams have new home, away and gk kits (except West Brom away) as well as some 3rd kits. All Bundesliga teams have new home, away and gk kits as well as some 3rd kits. There are also quite a few Championship team kit updates as well as some other teams. Hopefully by the next update the remaining kits will be done, please remember this excludes licensed teams as there is no way to update their kits.

Transfers
I have done lots more transfers although not all are done yet. I have updated my list & will continue working through Duck No.99's list of European transfers. No need to let me know of any European transfers, but I still need your help with other teams. No squad numbers have been fixed as yet.

Team Lineups
Most are still messed up sorry, I started doing them, but decided it I was wasting my time as there are still a lot of transfers to be completed. Here are a few quick solutions for the problem...

• When playing ML/League modes fix your line up in the menu at it will be correct for each match.
• If you use a team a lot in Exhibition mode then fix the line up in edit mode so it is correct each time.

Player Appearances

There are a few more player appearances added, mainly Koln players, you can see which ones have been added on the player appearances page.

There are probably a few other things that I have forgotten and if you have any issues let me know.

Enjoy, Paul

v2.9 News

Hi guys, I thought I would update you all on the progress of v2.9 so here goes....

There are lots of new kits done, Almost all Premier League kits are done and the same goes for the Bundesliga, there are also lots of new kits for the Championship teams as well as a few others. Hopefully I will get a few more done in the next few days. A big thanks to Bhattu Krishna who has done a lot of them for me so I can concentrate on other things. Remember licensed teams can't be updated so there will be no new kits for Manchester Utd, Bayern, etc.

There will be loads of transfers done, I have just updated my transfers page & I'm still working my way through Duck No.99's excellent list of European transfers. Hopefully I will get as many done as possible before the update is released, but anything that is missing will be done for the final update. Again thanks to all of you who have pointed out transfers to me.

My main priority is creating all the players for the promoted teams, I have a few teams 95% done, but there is still plenty to do. What I would like to know is if I don't finish them all by the weekend would you still like me to release what is done?

Erik Durm is still working hard on the J-League and if he is done by the weekend then I will release two versions on all formats. One with the J-League and one with the ISL, if he isn't done by the time I'm ready to release v2.9 then I will release a extra update as soon as he is finished.

That's about it for now.

Cheers, Paul

Transfers Again

Hi guys, I have disabled editing on the transfers spreadsheet as people have continued to mess with the sorting & I keep having to double check I haven't missed things that have been added. This means I will go back to the way I have done this in previous years, you can post anything I'm missing either in the comments on spreadsheet, on here or if you have a large amount you can email them to me at paulc2478@gmail.com I will then add them to the list.

Thanks again to everyone who is adding transfers as it's a massive help.

Cheers, Paul

Transfers

Hi guys, thanks to those of you who have been adding to the transfers page here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hRs7_-vtQz82ppJlx8PAEd2cXKY8dZtLNxyOe7Jbn8w/edit?usp=sharing I would just like to point out a few things so I don't miss anything....

• Please don't mess with the formatting or sorting.
• When adding transfers please add them to the bottom or type them in a different colour so I can see what has been added.
• Please don't forget to add links.
• Please remember to add full names, not just surnames.
• Don't add loans where the player has gone to a team not in the game.

Cheers, Paul

Moving Forward

Hi guys, a little later than planned here is what to expect in future updates to my OF.

2014/15 Kits
I will continue to add the new kits for all the unlicensed teams, unfortunately there is no way to edit the kits for the licensed teams.

Promoted Teams
I will be adding the promoted teams for all leagues, the Liga Zon Sagres has expanded to 18 teams and I don't think there is any way I can increase the size of the league (but I will try). If I cant then I will just add Moreirense. I will be using the fake hidden teams to create the new teams, so the original teams will remain in the game as hidden teams. The licensed teams will keep there name, emblem, kits and players, but the unlicensed teams will only have their kits and players. There names and emblems will revert to default.

Duplicate Teams
When the Copa Libertadores 2014 was added it created some duplicate teams, I have already removed the duplicate Atletico Nacional and I will use the duplicate Deportivo Cali to create one of the promoted Argentinian or Chilean teams. Unfortunately I can't move the three Mexican teams to the Liga MX and they can't be edited, so I thought the best solution would be to remove the duplicate players and just put some free agents in the teams instead so there isn't two of the same player.

Player Appearances
I will continue to update the appearances of as many players as possible.

Transfers
I will continue to update transfers and this is where you all come in. Here is a list of every transfer I'm aware of https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hRs7_-vtQz82ppJlx8PAEd2cXKY8dZtLNxyOe7Jbn8w/edit?usp=sharing If you know of any others you can add to the bottom of the list & I can review it each day. Please add a link with each one and the squad number if you know it. Reputable links only please such as the buying or selling clubs website, no rumours or sites like Goal.com.

J-League
Currently Erik Durm is working on creating the J-League in place of the ISL, once he is done I will release two versions of my OF after each update, one with the ISL and one with the J-League.

Cheers, Paul

v2.8 Out Now

Hi guys, v2.8 is out now for BLES/BLUS/BLAS, it contains...

Data Pack Fixes
I have defaulted all the stats for the WC players. I have also defaulted the appearances for a few players I had edited that got a preset face in the last data pack such as Lamert (England) & Ospina (Colombia). I have also fixed the name issue with some more Copa Libertadores 2014 players, I thought they would all be done for this update, but I ran into a few issues. Thanks to bhattu krishna for helping me work out what was going on.

Player Appearances
There are 30+ new player appearances added, most are World Cup players. You can see the new ones by checking the player appearances page.

Promoted Teams
I have added Leones Negros to the Liga MX in place of the relegated Atalante. Atlante have been moved to the other Latin American Teams, more info will be posted on regarding this.

Transfers
I havent done any more transfers since v2.7 other than the players needed for Leones Negros. As with the promoted teams I will be posting info about transfers very soon.

Kits
New kits for Arsenal (home & away), Aston Villa (home,away,gk),. Chelsea (home,away,3rd,gk) & Liverpool (home,away,3rd,gk) have been added. /more to come in future updates.

That's about it for now, I will be posting info about what is to come in future updates either later today or tomorrow.

Enjoy, Paul

Netherlands Kit Fix

Hi guys, just a quick note to say that there is a new Konami patch v1.16 which fixes the issue with the Dutch NT kit. It has no other effect on the OF so you can download it without worrying about it messing up the OF. The server is currently down, so it is possible that there will be a new data pack as well (although I doubt it). I'm going to continue working on my OF & release v2.8 sometime this week.

Cheers, Paul

Transfers

Hi guys, since the release of v2.7 there have been a few comments regarding transfers. I'm getting bored replying the same thing over and over so I thought I would write a post regarding the matter. I always try to keep transfers up to date and finish up with the final version of the OF in September with all transfers competed before taking a break before the new game is released. The Summer transfers are always worse than the Winter ones as they take place over a longer period so it can mean that teams can be understrength for longer.

I do the transfers as they happen as it makes things more manageable (remember this is just a hobby). Some people have suggested that I keep that as a separate file to release in September, the issue with this would be that I would then have to edit all the kits again as well as any other changes I have made to the main OF such as adding new players or appearances. This would double my work, meaning half as much would get done.

This is the solution for anyone that doesn't want transfers until they are all completed. Wait for the mini update that I will release after Konami have fixed the issue with the Dutch NT kit. This update will basically be v2.7 just with that kit fixed and adding a few of the new preset faces that I forgot to default before v2.7 was released. Then you can put back any players into the teams they were in and then don't download any of my updates until I release the final version in September.

When v2.8 gets released next month many more transfers will have happened, so there shouldn't be the issue of Arsenal having one goalkeeper (I will create a youth player if they haven't signed one by then).

I don't like sounding like an arse, by this is the way I have worked on OF's since I started releasing them for PES 2010 and I'm not changing. I would love to make numerous different versions to suit everyone, but this is just a hobby which I already dedicate way too much time to. If your not happy then there are many other wonderful OF's out there that might suit your needs better.

Cheers, Paul

Quick Note

Hi guys, I'm away as I said & the internet is really slow. I have responded to what I can, but won't perply to anything else until I get home tomorrow afternoon.

Have a great weekend, Paul

v2.7 Out Now

Hi guys, you can now download v2.7 compatible with DP7.00. It contains....

World Cup
All squads updated after the recent injury withdrawals & fixes to squad numbers. All kits are correct except for the Netherlands, I followed Konami's guide & defaulted them prior to the new data pack, but there has been a issue so until they fix it I can't even add my kits back in. I have either removed or updated the stats for for the players I had previously created that were added by the new data pack.

Player Appearances
The new data pack contained over 200 new or updated player appearances. I have also added a few more a defaulted players I had previously updated that now have a official face.

Kits
Updated Mexico GK kit and new kits for South Africa and New Zealand.

Transfers
I have started doing transfers, only a few so far. This has caused starting lineups to mess up. I will wait until all transfers are completed before fixing them.

That's about it, hopefully a fix for the Dutch NT kit will be out soon. I'm away this weekend so replies may be slow. I hope you all enjoy this update and the World Cup.

Cheers, Paul

Donate For Team Imports

Hi guys, first up I thought I would let you all know that I'm currently uploading new full files that contain everything from v1.0 through to v2.6. BLES is currently uploading and I will also upload the BLUS and BLAS versions. They have all 687 files in one download so take a couple of hours each to upload, so I will just update the downloads page as each one is ready. Obviously if you are up to date you don't need this, but they will be useful for any of you who are missing kits or haven't updated for a while.

No onto the reason for my post, I get asked a lot for different teams so I thought of a way to provide some of them while also raising money for the Relay For Life that I will be taking part in later in the year. For a AU$50 donation here http://relay.cancercouncil.com.au/2014/wagga_wagga_relay_for_life_72/Dad--s-Army/394410 I will fully create any club team not already in my OF as a import which will contain the following...

• Correct Kits
• Correct Emblem
• All players
• Appearances for every player
• Boots/Accessories for every player
• Transfer updates until September

I know it is quite a lot of money, but making one team from scratch with that amount of detail takes about 10 hours and I want to raise as much money as I can. Any questions post in the comments and if you decide to donate then email me the team of your choice.

Cheers, Paul

v2.6 Out Now (BLES/BLUS/BLAS)

Hi guys v2.6 can now be downloaded on all formats, it contains.....

World Cup Squads
All 32 teams taking part in the up coming World Cup have the correct squads and kits.

Player Appearances
There are more updated player appearances, you can find out the new ones on the Player Appearances page, there are also a lot of updated boots and accessories.

Stadiums
Stadiums have been assigned and corrected names added for the Other European Teams, Brazilian teams and Championship teams.

Promoted Teams
I have moved the promoted teams to the Premier League, this has meant adding Leicester to the option file in the place of Yeovil. Also in this update is a export of Yeovil if you want to put them back in at the expense of another team. There are also exports of Brighton & Derby thanks to bhattu krishna.

I will add the promoted teams for the other leagues in future updates. Also coming in future updates will be all the transfers that have either already happened or will happen. There will also be more of the usual player appearances.

I'm going to keep bugging you all about this, but if anyone has some spare cash and would like to sponsor me in this years Relay For Life, then you can do so here http://relay.cancercouncil.com.au/2014/wagga_wagga_relay_for_life_72/Dad--s-Army/394410

Have a great weekend, Paul

Player Appearance Requests - Round 6

Hi guys, I thought I would open up another round of player appearance requests that I will try to get done for v2.2. The rules ware the same as last time, here they are....

1. I won't do players who have a preset face
2. 3 players per person
3. Please provide full name and Club/NT
4. Please check the player appearances page here http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/p/transfers_19.html before requesting.

As always I will only accept requests from logged in users so I can track who has requested, if you don't have a Google account then you can send your requests to me via email at paulc2478@gmail.com. Any players that I can't find builds for will be noted and done when/if I can find one. You can find the list of previously requested players that I havent found builds for here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlC0e4oaFvdvdDAxdmdMa1MwcDFES0V4a2Q1UFNGN1E&usp=sharing

I'm currently working on v2.6, my main priority for it is to have all the correct squads for the World Cup, squads need to be finalized by the 2nd of June so it should be out a day or two after that. I will try to include any appearance requests I receive before then and you can also expect more corrected stadium names among other things. After that update is finished I will start on adding 2014/15 kits, updating transfers and adding promoted teams.

Cheers, Paul

v2.5 Out Now

Hi guys, v2.5 compatible with Data Pack v6.10 is out now for BLES, BLUS & BLAS versions. It contains....

Player Appearances
Over 130 new player appearances, you can see which ones are new by checking the player appearances page.

New Kits
A couple of new kits have been added in addition to those added by the new data pack.

Other Changes
A few other changes have been made such as extra players added and more updates to the Brazilian League teams. Due to time constraints I haven't fully fixed the line ups as yet for the Brazilian teams, I will do so for the next update. In the next update I will also have the complete update to the World Cup squads.

I was caught a bit by surprise with the data coming a couple of days earlier than expected so there may be a few issues. For example I know that if you look at the Copa Libertadores 2014 players in edit mode the names will show as "unregistered" this along with any other issues will be fixed in the next update.

I would have spent more time checking this, but my time is very stretched at the moment as my Father in law passed away after a long battle with cancer on Monday evening. As I said in my last post I will be taking part in a 24 hour walk for Cancer Research in October and would be grateful for any donations you are all able to make here  http://relay.cancercouncil.com.au/2014/wagga_wagga_relay_for_life_72/Dad--s-Army/394410

Enjoy, Paul

Some News

Hi guys, sorry for the lack of posts recently. Now most European leagues have either finished or are about to finish I have added a poll to the blog to find out how many of you would like to see the promoted teams added to the OF in place of the relegated teams. If I do it will be like I did with the Brazilian league in that the existing teams will not be removed completely, just moved to replace one of the fake hidden teams. I will make a decision either way based on the result of the poll, although they wont be done until after I have finished any necessary updates for the World Cup squads.

A large reason for my lack of posts is helping to take care of my father in law who is very ill, a lot of you will have seen previous posts about my wife taking part in 24 hour walks for cancer research, and this year I will be taking part as well. If you have some spare cash and want to support then you can do so here http://relay.cancercouncil.com.au/2014/wagga_wagga_relay_for_life_72/Dad--s-Army/394410

I have been working on the OF whenever I get chance and will release the next update once all the final World Cup squads are announced.

Cheers, Paul

Leicester City Import

Hi guys, to celebrate their promotion to the Premier League here is Leicester City that can be imported into my OF in place of any other team. The other 5 Championship teams will also be available in the coming weeks, these are the only imports I will be making.

BLES http://www.mediafire.com/download/4i8qnqk2bqeheb2/Leicester.rar
BLUS http://www.mediafire.com/download/h6xmcpcmmusu5lx/Leicester_(BLUS).rar
BLAS http://www.mediafire.com/download/5jbl0lgca4dony9/Leicester_(BLAS).rar

To use this import follow these steps...

1. Download & extract the file.
2. Copy to your PS3 just like any other update.
3. Start the game & go to edit mode.
4. Select Import Team, then select the file.
5. Choose which team you want to replace.
6. When asked to apply line ups say yes.
7. When asked to overwrite a emblem say yes & select the Championship emblem.
8. Wait until everything loads & when complete save & exit edit mode.

You can choose any team to overwrite with no issues, but you will need to do this after everyone of my updates. At the moment only Schmeichel has a appearance done, but everything else with the players is correct. They have home, away, 3rd & GK kits.

Enjoy, Paul

v2.4 Out Now (BLES/BLUS/BLAS)

Hi guys, v2.4 of my OF is out now for all regions. It is only one file and includes....

Error Fixes
All errors pointed out on here and PES Gaming (as well as some I noticed) have been fixed.

Player Appearances
Nearly 100 new player appearances have been added, again I need to say a big thanks to Paul for a lot of them. The player appearances page has been updated, the ones with "New" next to them are the new ones in this update.

Stadiums
Stadiums have been assigned and names added for all Liga Zon Sagres and Bundesliga teams.

Enjoy, Paul

v2.3 Out Now

Hi guys, v2.3 is now avaliable to download, links are on the downloads page. It is just a small update that has about 30 new player appearances, fixes the licensed NT squads (as per the last data pack), as well as a few other small fixes.

I won't touch the NT squads again until the World Cup squads are announced. The update also includes the Honduras GK kit that I forgot to add to v2.2.

Enjoy, Paul

v2.2 Out Now

Hi guys, sorry for the wait but v2.2 is out now. It includes....

NT Teams
I have fixed the unlicensed NT teams after the DLC so that duplicates have been removed & fake names are corrected. I haven't done the licensed teams yet, but will update them for v2.3. Besides the new NT kits added by the DLC I have also added the new Bosnia kits & the new Honduras GK kit. The Brazuca ball has been assigned to the World Cup.

Created Teams
All have the correct squads as per v2.1, I have also removed all the duplicate players that were made by the latest data pack.

Player Appearances
There are over 100 new player appearances added, I have also made sure that any player I previously edited who now has a preset has been defaulted so you get to enjoy them. A big thanks again to Paul for the large number of Championship faces.

World Cup DLC
I haven't purchased the paid World Cup DLC so this will work for any of you who haven't purchased it. I hope it will also work for those of you who have, let me know if it does. If it doesn't then I would suggest using 7oy's OF as his does work with it.

I have also fixed up the things suggested after the previous update, any issues let me know.

Cheers, Paul

V2.2 & Data Pack 5.00

Hi guys, I'm sorry to say that the data pack has messed up the OF and it is going to take about 8-10 hours to fix it (as a rough estimate). Unfortunately for you all I'm going away in the morning for a few days so won't be able to do anything with the file until Sunday at the earliest.

In the meantime you have two options either download the data pack and put up with the messed up squads until I release a fix or don't download the data pack and wait until I have the fix ready.

Sorry for the inconvenience, Paul

Player Appearances

Hi guys, I have updated the player appearances page & the list of outstanding requests. As I have said before I really bad at making faces so rely on those posted on the various forums to update player appearances. I know of a lot of sites, especially the English speaking ones like PESGaming, PESFan and WENB, but I'm always looking for more.

What I would like to know is if you know of any sites, forims, blogs or YouTube channels where people post face builds for PES, let me know in the comments. Also if you havent already you can still request faces here http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/player-appearance-requests-round-5.html

Changing the subject a little the new DLC is out tomorrow, judging by the maintainance times it will be sometime between 2am an 9am GMT. It was released a couple of hours ago for Xbox, I'm trying to get as much info about it as I can, but so far I can say that the NT kits have been updated for the remaining licensed NT's and some of the new faces include Sagna (now has a proper hairstyle & better face), Diego Costa and Andros Townsend. I will update with more details as I get them and all being well v2.2 will be released about this time tomorrow.

Cheers, Paul

Player Appearance Requests - Round 5

Hi guys, I thought I would open up another round of player appearance requests that I will try to get done for v2.2. The rules will be a little different this time, here they are....

1. I won't do players who have a preset face

v2.2 & new DLC News

Hi guys, as a few people posted in the comments there is new Konami DLC being released next week on 26th March. The main part of the DLC will be charged, but the data pack and patch will be free as always. The paid DLC adds a new World Challenge mode which can be played controlling the whole team or just one player through qualifying and the finals of the International (World) Cup.

The second (free) DLC will be a game patch and new data pack that will updated more licensed NT kits, add more new boots and update over 60 player appearances. The other good news in Brazil will be licensed, however it is unclear if this will be part of the data pack or only for those people who purchase the World Challenge DLC. Anyway I guess we will find out next week, in the meantime his is a trailer for those of you who haven't seen it.

So originally my plan was to spend the next two or three weeks fixing up the issues from the last update and completing as many hidden teams as possible, but as there will be a new data pack and who knows if it will cause issues, I will instead focus on fixing the issues and release v2.2 as quickly as possible after the data pack. I will still try to complete some hidden teams if possible.

Cheers, Paul

v2.1 Out Now (BLES/BLUS/BLAS)

Hi guys, v2.1 is out now, links are on the downloads page. Sorry it is a couple of days late, but Brazilian fans will be especially excited about what I was able to do. Here's the key new things...

Updated Player Stats
I have defaulted all the stats to reflect the changes made by the last Konami data pack, if you think I have missed anyone then let me know.

Missing Transfers
I have done all the transfers that were either missed in the last data pack or happened after it. As always I have ignored one month loans or loans to NIG clubs (unless space was needed in a team), if you think I have missed any then let me know (as well as any incorrect squad numbers). Also I have put back players such as N'Zogbia who were removed, but are still at there club.

Player Appearances
Well over 150 new player appearances have been added, a big thanks to 7oy for quite a few La Liga players and again Paul for so many more Championship players. The Player Appearances page has been updated to show all the new ones.

Stadiums
I have assigned stadiums and names for the La Liga teams to go with the Premier League, League 1, Serie A and Eredivsie teams in the last update.

NT Kits
Lots more new NT kits have been added, as well as others I believe every unlicensed team that will be playing in the World Cup now has new kits. This is with the exception of Bosnia & Herzegovina who are rumoured to have signed a deal with Nike or Adidas, so I will wait until that is confirmed before updating them. Hopefully nearer the time Konami will release another data pack to update the remaining licensed teams.

Brazilian League
Now for the big one, the Brazilian league not only has updated transfers, but also I have added Chapecoense (big thanks to 7oy again) and moved the promoted teams to the league and the relegated teams to the Other South American Teams section. In order to get Chapecoense into the file I had to move Atletico Goianiense to the hidden team, they will still appear when playing ML/BAL, but you won't be able to play as them.

I'm highly confident both the BLUS and BLAS versions will work without any issues, but let me know if there are any. I will now concentrate on fixing the hidden teams for the next update as well as a few other things.

Enjoy, Paul

v2.1 Delay

Hi guys, I haven't had as much time as expected to edit over the weekend so v2.1 will be delayed until tomorrow or Tuesday sorry. I'm working on it at the moment and don't have too much more to do, but I don't want to rush it. All three versions (BLES/BLUS/BLAS) should be released simultaneously when it is done.

Cheers, Paul

V2.1 News & Player Appearance Requests Round 4

Hi guys, I thought I would update you all on what to expect to see in v2.1 and when you can expect to see it. Here are the things I'm working on as a priority...

Missing Transfers
I've been busy updating the missing transfers, which are mainly in the Brazilian league. I have done all the in game players and put back the players that were in the game previously. I have started creating players who are not in the game, I have about 10 more to do then I will have finished them.

NT Kits
After the last round of International matches a lot more new NT were revealed, I have updated a lot of them already and I'm working through the rest.

Player Stats
As a lot of you pointed out some of the player stats that were updated by the last data pack were not in v2.0, I'm working through defaulting the affected players so that they will all be correct.

Player Appearances
A minor thing to some people, but adds some extra realism. The appearances page has been updated to show the new faces added since v2.0 (there are over 140), they are the ones with "New" next to them. I will be adding more before v2.1 is released as well

Hopefully if there is time I will also do a few other things such as updating more stadium names and all being well v2.1 should be out sometime on the weekend.

Player Appearance Requests - Round 4
I have completed all the valid requests that I can find builds for from the last round of requests and the ones I can't find builds for will be done as soon as I can find them. I'm now ready to take the next round of requests, as many as possible will be included in v2.1. The rules as always are...

1. I won't do players who have a preset face
2. Only 1 request per person
3. Please provide full name and Club/NT
4. Please check the player appearances page here http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/p/transfers_19.html before requesting.

Cheers, Paul

v2.0 Out Now For BLAS

Hi guys, thanks to 7oy you can now download v2.0 for BLAS, link is on the downloads page. I'm going out now so won't be able to answer many questions until the morning.

Enjoy, Paul

Data Pack 4.30

Hi guys, just a day later Konami have released data pack 4.30, it apparently fixes player appearance issues that were not fixed in 4.20 released yesterday. I haven't had time to look into it much, but again just like 4.20 it doesn't effect the OF so is safe to download.

Data Pack 4.20

Hi guys, data pack 4.20 has been released, the official notes say it fixes some appearance errors, but I haven't noticed anything so far. If you have noticed anything then let me know. You can all download it as it doesn't alter anything from my last update (that I have noticed).

In other news I'm busy fixing up the transfers for the Brazilian League that didn't get updated in the last data pack. This will be one of the many things that will be in v2.1 which will be out sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Cheers, Paul

Player Appearances Requests - Round 3

Hi guys, after the bad news of the previous post it is time for some good news. I will now start taking another batch of requests for player appearances, as before the rules are as follows...

1. I won't do players who have a preset face
2. Only 1 request per person
3. Please provide full name and Club/NT
4. Please check the player appearances page here http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/p/transfers_19.html before requesting.

As with before if I can't find a build for a player I will keep a record of them & add them as soon as I find one. Also any requests from anonymous users will be ignored to make sure it stays as one per person. I won't respond to requests, but will comment when people can request again.

Cheers, Paul

BLAS v2.0

Hi guys, I have just spent about 3 hours converting v2.0 to BLAS & after testing it has failed. I don't know what it is, but I have a very low success rate converting to BLAS compared to converting to BLUS, what I'm looking for is someone who knows the conversion process & is happy to do the BLAS conversion for me. If you are interested then let me know in the comments or by sending a email to paulc2478@gmail.com.

If no one can do this for me then I'm sorry to say there will be no more BLAS versions of my OF.

Cheers (& sorry to all the BLAS users), Paul

BLUS v2.0 Out Now

Hi guys, link to the BLUS v2.0 is now on the downloads page. I will do the BLAS version tomorrow, thanks for your patience. See the previous post for what is included, any issues let me know.

Cheers, Paul

v2.0 Out Now (BLES)

Hi guys, v2.0 is out now for BLES, I will convert & upload it for BLUS & BLAS as quickly as possible. v2.0 contains...

Transfers
The new data pack has fixed up the majority of transfers for the European teams & I have done most (if not all) for the created teams. Only some South American transfers seem to have been done, I will fix them up in the next update.

Player Appearances
I have updated the player appearances page to show all the new faces added, a big thanks to pierreledonne for the majority of Serie A faces (&7oy for sharing them with me) & also to another Paul who has done a large number of Championship faces for me.

Kits
A few more ISL kits have been added along with lots of new NT kits.

I have removed all the duplicates that I'm aware of that were caused by the new data pack, if you think I have missed any then let me know.

Enjoy, Paul

Data Pack 4.00 Out Now

Hi guys, just to let you know DP 4.00 is can now be downloaded from the game. I don't know how big it is, but it downloaded for me in about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on Twitter if you follow me for updates on my progress of fixing the OF as well as any things I notice about it.

Cheers, Paul

Data Pack Prep

Hi guys, I have finished all my prep for the new data pack. All the created teams have been exported ready to import back in after the data pack is installed, that should only take a couple of hours to do. After that I will need to check to make sure everything has come back as it should and then remove any duplicates that the new data pack causes. All being well this should mean I have everything fixed by late tomorrow night, I'm not going to commit to this as I don't know what hiccups may occur.

Now because of the way I'm going to fix the file a lot of kits will move to different data files and because of this v2.0 will contain every file that makes up the OF. I suggest that after you have downloaded the data pack & v2.0 that you delete all PES files from your PS3 except for your systemdata and save games before copying v2.0.

The game will be offline between 3am & 9am GMT tomorrow (2pm & 8pm for me) so I would imagine the data pack will be avaliable sometime between those times. Due to the large number of files I will need to convert the BLES version will be released first with the BLUS & BLAS version to follow as quickly as possible.

Cheers, Paul

New Update, Data Pack & Hidden Teams

Hi guys, as you may have seen the new data pack is released on the 27th and I will release my next update as quickly as possible after that. There will be quite a bit to check and fix so I will hope to have it out on the 28th, but it may be 1st or 2nd March.

The hidden team fixes won't be in that update due to the amount of work involved, but will hopefully follow not long after. Thanks for the replies regarding these so far, if you want a particular team then please be specific, obviously when it comes to South America there are a very limited number of teams so just saying teams not in the Copa Libertadores is what I'm looking at.

I will spend the next few days preparing for the release of the next data and a couple of days after the new update is released I will open another round of player appearance requests.

Cheers, Paul

Fake Hidden Teams

Hi guys, a while ago I mentioned editing the fake hidden teams that appear when playing ML and BAL. Even though the same restrictions apply in regards to editing the team names 7oy and myself have decided to start editing them anyway. 7oy is doing the European ones and I will do the South American ones and we will share them with each other so they are in both OF's.

These teams will have the correct players and some may have kits, but due to the kit limit most teams will just have kits edited using the in game editor, so no sponsor or manufacturer logos. As mentioned before the team names will also just be the default ones unless someone manages to fix the Multiconverter.

We know which European teams to add, but I'm looking for suggestions for South American teams. They must be top division teams that not not already in the OF and if you can post a link to the up to date squad list that would be really helpful.

As this doesn't just effect my OF I will take suggestions of any Mexican teams from users of 7oy's OF.

Cheers, Paul

Championship Emblems

Hi guys, I have been meaning to post this for a while & have finally gotten around to doing it. For those of you that would rather have correct emblems for the Championship teams instead of some of the other teams there is a emblem pack on the downloads page and instructions on what to do with it on the FAQ's page.

Also on a related note if you spot any Championship players that have the wrong skin colour then let me know and I will make sure they are corrected for the next update. You can do this in the comments or if you have a really long list by emailing it to me at paulc2478@gmail.com .

Cheers, Paul

OF News

Hi guys, I have updated the Player Appearances page with everything I have done so far, if your request isn't there and they don't already have a preset then I will do them as soon as I find a build for them. If you look at the list you will notice a lot of new Serie A faces, some are due to your requests, but a lot are thatnks to 7oy passing on some exports where pierledonne had added many faces posted on PES Gaming. I would like to thank both of them for saving me some time.

I have disabled comments on both Player Appearance posts so I can concentrate on adding faces I want to add as well as other content for v2.0. I will ask for requests again in a couple of weeks once the new data pack has arrived.

Cheers, Paul

New Konami Updates

Hi guys, as anyone who has played PES today will know a new patch has been released, as long as you are signed into PSN then you will be prompted to download it when you start the game. It fixes a number of bugs & you will receive a list of the updates when you download it.

Konami have also announced that the next data pack including the latest transfers will be released this month. No date has been given as yet but as we are half way through the month it will either have to this time next week or more likely this time in two weeks. Full details can be found here http://uk.games.konami-europe.com/news.do?idNews=762

Because the data pack is coming I will hold off on releasing v2.0 until after that so I can fix up the issues caused by it. I'm still trying to fix the BLAS v1.9, but will most likely now wait until the release of v2.0, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers, Paul

Player Appearances - Round 2

Hi guys, since the release of v1.9 I have been getting stuck into player appearances as I said in I would in my last post. Last time I asked for you requests there were over 100 valid requests and I have nearly finished doing all the ones that I can find builds for on the forums plus others that I have done for the created players. I will keep a record of any that I can't find a build for a do them as soon as I find one, I would have a go myself, but I'm terrible at faces. Here are the rules for this round of requests that I will start completing once I have finished the original list.

1. I won't do players who have a preset face
2. Only 1 request per person *
3. Please provide full name and Club/NT
4. Please check the pages linked below before requesting **

*No requests from anonymous users so I can check that people are only requesting once, if you don't have a Google account then you can request on Twitter. Once I have completed your request I will reply and you can request again if you wish to.

**Player Appearances Page http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/p/transfers_19.html

    Original Request Post http://paul2478pesoptionfiles.blogspot.com.au/2013/11/player-appearances.html

Any requests that don't meet these rules will most likely be ignored.

I also have a favour to ask... I wan't to make sure that the players I have created at least have the correct skin colour and hairstyle so if there is a player who is has the wrong skin colour please let me know, especially the Championship and ISL teams. You can do this in the comments or by emailing me at paulc2478@gmail.com .

Cheers, Paul

**Edit**
I have decided I will only reply to comments on this post if I have completed the request or it is a question ;)

What To Expect In v2.0

Hi guys, I hope you are all enjoying the last update, I thought I would let you all know what to expect in v2.0. I have no release date for this, it will just depend on how much I get done and how quickly.

First up I will complete the transfers for the created teams, this will include those I missed in v1.9 plus any that happened after v1.9 was released before the transfer window closed. After Konami have released their transfer update (I don't know when that will happen) I will fix up any other missing transfers.

After that the bulk of the work will be done so I can concentrate a bit more on cosmetic things. This means I can start getting stuck into the player appearances. I will mainly be looking at players that I have created, but will also get stuck into more of the faces you guys requested a couple of months ago. Once I have reduced that list a bit I will post again asking for more suggestions.

The other thing I will will be working on is kits, mainly finishing of the ISL kits and updating a lot of the new NT kits that have been neglected while I finished off the players.

I will also try to start renaming stadiums for each team as promised.

Cheers, Paul

v1.9 Out Now

Hi guys, v1.9 is out now for BLES/BLUS/BLAS, links are on the downloads page. The update contains...

Indonesian Super League
All teams now have the correct players (names, stats, positions, nationalities), a few players are still missing as I haven't been able to make stats for them, I will try to add them in the next update. Arema and Barito Putera have the correct kits, the others will follow in v2.0.

Other European/American/Asian Teams
All teams now have the correct players (names, stats, positions, nationalities) and kits.

National Teams
The Jordan kits that I missed in v1.8 have been added.

Transfers
Most transfers are done involving the created teams, transfers for the in game teams haven't been done as they will be done by a future Konami Data Pack. I haven't removed players who have gone on loan to teams not in the game.

Player Appearances
A few for face build and accessories updates have been done, I have updated the appearances page.

Some squad numbers may be incorrect (especially in the ISL) and some line ups may be a bit messed up. I will fix these things up after the transfer window closes.

The file is now basically ML/BAL ready in that all teams now have real players, you may however want to wait until after Konami update the transfers. I'm going to start my BAL though in the next couple of days, it will be nice to start up PES and do something other than editing for the first time in about 2 months.

As always if there are any issues with the BLUS/BLAS versions let me know and I will fix them up as soon as possible. I will post in the next few days about what you can expect in v2.0.

Enjoy, Paul
