This file
will need to be re-applied if/when patches/updates are released to ensure full compatibility. This is due to the fact that some files which are removed when installing this file are re-installed when patches come out.
The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 15 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed. It will also fix the fact that the German National team doesn't call up real players. These are fully save-game compatible.
There is also a club name changes file, which changes the names of clubs in a way which ensures that any nicknames entered in the default database are retained. This file includes the proper names for Italian and French clubs to circumvent licensing restrictions. It also adds real-life media and journalists, with 23 media files added to encompass all major footballing nations and continents. It also includes a small file to correct some incorrect national kit colours and ones whose kits were not displaying. Finally, it includes a small file which corrects the 3-Letter competition names to correspond with any changes made in the lnc files. For all these files to work, however, you will need to start a new game.
Magrippinho very helpfully created a
YouTube video on how this file should be installed. Some of the contents are different - but the procedure is identical, although of course you use the equivalent folder for FM15.
Or, you can follow the below instructions to install this file:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/mz5a33yifa7g33y/FM15+Real+Names+Fix+Files.rar Step 1: Go to
PC - Code:
-
Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2015 \ data \ db \ 1500
Mac - Code:
-
USERNAME \ Library \ Application Support \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Football Manager 2015 \ Data \ db \ 1500
Linux - Code:
-
/home/user/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Football Manager 2015/data/db/1500/
Please note that the Local folder is hidden. Press (ctrl + h)

this link to find out how to show it.
Step 2: Delete the edt and lnc folders from the folder above
Step 3: Copy the edt and lnc folder from this download into the folder mentioned in step 1.
Step 4: Go to:
- Code:
-
Documents \ Sports Interactive \ Football Manager 2015
Step 5: Open the folder named "editor data" contained therein. If it does not exist, then create it.
Step 6: Keeping the folder in step 5 open, go back to the file you downloaded and open the folder named "FM15 Real Names Fix Files from sortitoutsi.net BETA version".
Step 7: Paste this folder into the folder mentioned in step 5.
To make sure the files have been applied correctly, go to the Champions Cup and EURO Vase in your saved game, and they should be renamed to Champions League and Europa League respectively. If you are in the middle of a save-game, German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not instantly.
