2017/18 FM24 & FM26 v2.0 Database Mod Package
Last Updated: 29/08/2026
IMPORTANT: To use on FM26, load via the pre-loaded save file. DO NOT create a fresh save
Please DM Me with issues or questions. I often don't see comments due to the sheer number of them.
Key Things to note
Start all new saves with the 24.3 database.
All save game files come with the regens pre loaded
Regens don't spawn until the first youth intake so regen faces won't work until then

Regen Mod options
Normal - This is the standard regen mod that you are all used to
Variable PA ranges - This mod changes the PA values to ranges such as -10, -9 etc. This means that the actual PA value of a player will fall within a 30 PA range rather than being a fixed number, allowing for more variation.
Known Issues
- Regen birth months for the last 6 months have been changed for the FM26 version to avoid a bug with 15-year-old regens having randomised CA/PA. The instake dates have been changed to late June to also minimise the impact of this bug. FM24 is unaffected.
- As a result of the above, if you try and create a new save in FM26, it will not work. You either need to load the game via one of the pre-prepared save files or start a new save FM24 and use the save conversion feature. Sorry for any inconvenience.
