----------------------------------------------

NB! We are aware of some minor bugs that occur with some box and banner names. We are still trying to fix the problem. If you can fix these bugs in the game please eMail us with the information. Your work will be fully credited towards you. eMail us at joshy@iafrica.com

1. INTRODUCTION

World League Series Patch (WLS) is an add-on patch that implements changes in Championship Manager 9798 (v2.93). The version is changed to 9899 v2.9+ GBR. The date 9899 does not actually change the start date of the game, which is in the 97-98 season, but is the date in which the patch was published.

2. REQUIREMENTS & INSTALLATION

The patch requires the full working patched version of Championship Manager 9798. It is specifically made for the 16-bit version of Champ Manager v2.93. The other requirements can be found on the box of CM.

Unzip all the contents of the file into your CM Directory making sure your cm2e16.exe and .db1 files are all backed up in a separate folder.

The files will include:
tmdata.db1
mgdata.db1
players.db1
wls.exe
WLS Readme.txt
latest_changes.txt

Run the WLS.exe file and click on patch it! Run Champ Manager and start a new game. Make sure you run ONLY the WORLD LEAGUE. We have not tested the game with other leagues. And wa-la there it is. CM9798 & WLS. Enjoy!

3. LEAGUE TEAMS

WLS changes the French League to the World league Series consisting of 18 teams in the First Series and 22 teams in the Second Series. There are also about 30 non-league teams as well. The teams have been taken from the following foreign countries but the leagues also include top European clubs:

- Brazil
- Japan
- Argentina
- Russia
- United States
- China
- Colombia
- Yugoslavia
- Chile
- Croatia
- Romania
- Czech Republic
- Uruguay
- Paraguay

NB! All above countries have been made EEC Members so the foreign rule is not implemented on these countries.

4. CUPS

The teams compete in their respective divisions (First & Second Series), the Inter Super Cup (like the FA Cup in England) and Global Series Cup (League Cup). They have also got the chance to compete in the UEFA, Cup Winners and Champions League.

5. HELP

WLS has a support address at which you can send your eMails to if you find bugs or problems installing the game. You can send your eMails to joshy@iafrica.com. For more information on HELP see Paragraph 7.

6. SCOUTS NEEDED

As you can see most of the foreign clubs have little or no player force in their squad. This is because CMI has not had much access to foreign league scouts. We would really like to gain as much scout support as possible and keep the World Series running in CM3 as well. eMail us or visit our site for information.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

If you are having other porblems running the game send your eMails to Champ Manager International at joshy@iafrica.com. 


- 	When running the WLS.exe file for the FIRST TIME it says that game is   	already patched and when I enter the game it has not changed.
* 	The patch requires the original patched cm2e16.exe file. Not one the 	has been patched by other league patches. Otherwise it will not work. 	You can obtain this by running the patchzip.exe file from SI that 	patched your version of CM to v2.93.

- 	When running the WLS.exe file, it reads incorrect filesize. The game 	does not get patched. 
* 	Patch your version of Champ Manager. (See above)

- 	The game crashes at 86-95% when starting a new game.
* 	The problem might be that you have not got the correct tmdata.db1 	file that is required for the patch. It can be found in the zip file.

- 	The teams are filled with foreigners. I can't play more than three at 	a time so my side is completely weakened.
* 	Same solution above.

- 	The squads have got no managers and they keep on getting appointed 	during the start of the game.
*	The patch has not been completely finished and mangement and player 	data has not been completely collected. See Paragraph 6 if you can 	help.

There are not that many problems that can occur with the patch so it should work correctly 9 times out of ten.
