Definitely the best one to use.

@elfie I know both @Anth James and @papinho81 use CM16 to regenerate too. I use a different tool, FHL-BH-Editor, because I was having issues previously - but I wouldn't recommend it unless CM16 doesn't work for you, for some reason.

If you want to get REALLY fancy and update your player faces as well, I recommend downloading one of the face packs provided by the two heroes mentioned previously, e.g.:

So here it is (my face compilation), at the very end of the OP:

Then download DBmaster 15 here (not a typo, 15 is right), and download scouser09's SetFaceType tool here.

Then, to install, follow every step below:

papinho81 said:
1) With DBmaster extract your player.txt table to the data/sceneassets folder .

2) Put the two face types files from this zip inside your data/sceneassets folder.

3) Double click on the .bat one.

4) Import back the player.txt folder with DBmaster and save.

5) In game reset the squad to default.

@Chris Davies thanks a lot for this, much appreciated!

Currently downloading the infinity patch 4.0 and 4.1.
Will have a look at all this later on, I may come back here for some more questions.
Just consider me the bald old noob that still lives in the 80s.

what i noticed here, besides loving the camera angle... the cam is bound to the ball!? because in that clip, when the ball drops a few times (before the keeper arrives) you can see the cam bouncing with the ball.

Yeah, it looks amazing but it's actually the replay camera. I'm not sure but I believe you can find it in one of @papinho81 camera packs , here: https://evoweb.uk/threads/fifa-16-new-camera-packs.78793/

The broadcast one I'm using is also great and I think the fact that I'm playing with edited stadiums tweaks them a bit. It's a bit of work to set up Paps Stadium Server but it is really worth the trouble! (his tutorials are super good as well)

Do you changed the nets? They look amazing. I mean the height and the overall look. And do you using a ReShade setting or something?
Click to expand...

Yes, I did. I added this line to the cl.ini file: SOCCERNET_BOX_NORMAL_LOOSE_2_SUPPORTS=-150

Edit: And I changed the net support colour to red by following this tutorial: http://soccergaming.com/index.php?t...oalnets-goalposts-and-netsupportpost.6466287/

And yeah, I'm using the Reshade made by @Anth James with some little tweaks here and there. It looks great!

Thanks mate! I'll test it and could you maybe upload your Reshade settings? I would like to try it out.

Holy crap, I didn't know that existed, and I've been looking for a camera like "UserInstantReplayCamera" (i.e. zoomed out like the co-op cam, but that pivots to face the goals like the broadcast cam). Thank you!!!!

Damn it, I love this forum and I love you all :D Without checking this thread regularly I would never ever think of going back to Fifa 16 or even remember about it :WORSHIP: It's just beautiful to see everyone sharing stuff like this!

Do you have @Anth James Lighting mod already? Grab it here: https://evoweb.uk/threads/fifa-16-broadcast-camera-package-lighting-indicator-mods.85883/

I will send you my Reshade settings as soon as I can :=)

I use the original FIP cl.ini - otherwise, you've got v1's gameplay (which is already very, very good), battling the modded gameplay (which makes the changes Pap describes), battling further changes in the cl.ini (which the first two parts cover fairly well)... In my opinion, anyway!

The only thing I kept from an old cl.ini I had knocking around was a couple of lines about home/away difficulty levels (home 0.50, away 0.70) and derby aggression (both set to 700 I think), if you can see anything like that in your current cl.ini.

I'm 100% happy with how my game is playing now, after some tests on Professional difficulty (normal speed). I'm only using the FIFA 19 DB file Pap has provided, rather than the two files (because the pressure just became ridiculous, I was getting double-pressed everywhere and I felt like there wasn't enough difference between teams who are set-up to press versus ones that are set-up to stand off). Then I've changed the sliders to turn speed/accel to 49 each, shot power up to 52, pass speed to 47, pass error to 52, full-back position to 45. Oh, and the two injury sliders to 60.

Hey Chris dont now if you have already answered this as the threads Im reading are kinda everywhere but do you play with assisted controls? Ive been trying to get Professional to play competitively and will give a try to your sliders (I currently had an advantage to the AI in accel bc they would sometimes be braindead while defending. But giving this a try with the Pap Mod.) Pro plays very nice but the AI needs a kick in the nuts and I dont feel like going FUMA

Here it is. I think the ini file attached is enough but I will share the settings I have just in case:

@Chris Davies here mate, this is the way how I use my scoreboards.

For example, when i use Champions League, i just rename 'Game - CL' to 'Game'. I made a lot of copy's of my general game file and pasted there the competition that i needed.

I've never been a FUMA guy, I just don't have the patience to get good at it. I use assisted passing and find stats matter enough that it doesn't spoil the experience, but semi is always an option. For everything else, I either use semi or manual.

Six months ago i bought a media player with a 5 terrabe external hard drive.
It's almost full, and mostly with all my favorite series of the 70s and 80s : Magnum, Miami Vice, Dad's army, Kojak, the love boat, Cheers, Family Ties and whatnot.
Click to expand...
First 3 seasons of Miami Vice ,and Kojak.
Great stuff.
And also nowadays when people gets cancelled (Louie CK) I found the series Louie on an old HDD (tons of old stuff on that 3tb)
Sorry for OT
 
Chris Davies said:
It isn't, I'm just stupid. :LOL:

I was asked by someone in a PM how to get v1 working, and I put this:

----------

Buy a PC code for FIFA 16 online, then redeem it with Origin, and download the game.

Then, when it appears to have downloaded, start the game and ensure that it has (sometimes it will say that it is not fully downloaded). If it hasn't, go into Origin, go to FIFA 16 and click "check for update". This should start the remaining download.

Once it has fully downloaded, and you've started the game to confirm it, quit the game and rename the FIFA 16 folder to e.g. "FIFA 16 Origin Version".

Then, download FIFA 16 v1 from the FIFA 16 thread and unzip it to the same place where the "FIFA 16 Origin Folder" is - NOT overwriting it but alongside it, calling it "FIFA 16" or whatever you originally called the folder when Origin installed the game.

(By alongside it, I mean - say the Origin version was installed to C:\Games\FIFA 16 Origin Version, once you've renamed it, then extract v1 to C:\Games\FIFA 16, which shouldn't currently exist.)

Then, you install any patches and mods you like to the v1 FIFA 16 folder as you normally would. That folder being C:\Games\FIFA 16 now.

Then, and this is the most important step... From now on, every time you want to play, START ORIGIN FIRST, click the "file" menu and click "offline mode". Then launch FIFA 16 (from the desktop shortcut or from Origin).

It will ask you to confirm your Origin email address and password. Once you have done that, it should never ask you again.

That's it!

----------

You can just drop in other people's cl.ini files (which let you change most attributes) into the folder, to change gameplay massively.

The most difficult bit is "rebuilding" after installing each mod - you need to download a tool that basically builds an index file for the game to "read", so all your new files get picked up and used by the game. But all you need to do for that is install the tool, point it to your FIFA 16 directory after you've unzipped all the mods there, and click "rebuild". The tool I use is a bit rubbish, though, so I'll let others tell you the best tool for the job!

Damn, it is not working for me.
I changed my game folder in the origin games folder to Fifa origin version.
Then put in the V1 version like you told me.

Then applied infiniti 4.0 and 4.1. Used CM16 to regenerate.

Then went to Origin, went offline.
Started up the game.
After a few tries it asked me for my email and password.

Then it started up, but crashed to desktop.

So i must have done something wrong, only i have no idea what :D

EDIT : think i must have done something wrong with regenerating. I chose the Fifa 16 folder (the one with the mods) and pressed bh regen (or something like that) and nothing really happened.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but could the problem come from the fact that i have the dutch version installed?
I remember Origin asking me for it, and i was only able to choose Dutch commentary.

I made some changes and now it is possible to choose all languages.

I followed the same steps and have exactly the same problem, just get the Fifa 16 load screen then it crashes to desktop. I'm using English US however

Did you load the original game version once with Origin online, right after installing the game? I had to do it this way:

Install the game

Load it with Origin online and create a profile. Exit.

Change Origin to offline mode.

Rename the V1 folder to FIFA 16.

Start the game with Origin offline.

If it you manage to load the v1 version of the game without issues, you can then install the FIP patch and regenerate. Hope it works for you.

Yes I use the same setting for day and night.
Click to expand...
I find Day preset looks best even at night when there's rain/fog/snow, anything outside of clear. The clear night settings I'm looking at tweaking a little (it's a little too magenta). I had a go last night but results were not good! I'll chip away at it slowly.

Glad to see you've adjusted to your own tastes too, I wanted them to be flexible.

Yeah gonna try it step by step tomorrow, had a long day and wanted to launch my controller when it didn't work first time 😃

I did fully update the original origin version and that worked fine. Gonna try

1. Download v1 then run that offline
2. Install FIP v4.0, regenerate DB then run offline
3. Install FIP v4.1, regenerate DB then run offline

At least this way I should be able to find exactly where I ballsed up today

I agree. The clear night is the only setting that looks a bit dull in the game. Looking forward for your results! I will try and have a go at it as well.

Almost definitely my fault for not writing the instructions very well!

I've tried rewriting them here and included some extra steps just in-case it helps (including deleting the My Documents -> FIFA 16 folder between running "Origin" FIFA and "v1" FIFA).

Also, make sure if you're running FIP to follow their instructions. You need to run the FIP Version Selector EXE before you run the game, and I usually run the FIP Tournament Selector EXE too, just in-case.

The camera being bound to the ball is especially noticeable in broadcast replay camera, but it's also true in game to a slightly lesser extent. FIFA's camera tracking has always had this element and I find it incredibly frustrating. I've tried so many things to stop this with FIFA 16's broadcast camera angles (although it's not as noticeable in the Broadcast Camera Package #2 I made).

When you shoot for example, the camera still moves based on the position of the ball, which makes the camera feel slightly jerky and less realistic. @6ons1 has a great breakdown of this somewhere and shows how the camera tracking should settle once it's facing the final third.
