I can't play a game because too many players on international duties
I'm playing CM 01 02 with 3.9.68 patch, installed database update march 2022 and tapani 2.21.1. I'm playing Manchester United and in the second season in the UEFA cup third rund game against Nice too many players are on international duties. I can only select 9 players - the rest are on international duties or are not registered to play in the UEFA cup (only 25 players are registered, so when 16 are on international duties I can't select full 11)
How to fix it?

Play Reserves, I believe any U21 you should be able to select
Or you could use a save game editor and tick "Euro Registered" on the players Tab!

World Cup won't finish
I'm really sorry if this has been posted elsewhere. I can a look and couldn't find anything.
I'm running the most recent April 2022 update.
In the first World Cup of my save game, Italy somehow entered in twice in two different groups. They progressed from both groups which created a messed up situation in the knockouts. The World Cup stopped at Italy vs England/Italy/Japan/China in the final with no more fixtures scheduled.
All players who are on duty with those teams are now permanently stuck on International duty.
Is there any fix for this that would enable me to keep this save game?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, i decided to play this addictive game again and found the same problem. The question is, can i run the JL collection/Flex tool if i am using Mac Starter Kit? If i can, is there any step-by-step guide other that what is written in this thread: viewtopic.php?p=28397#p28397 ?
Thanks
Thanks

No there won't be any step by step guide for that. First step would be just finding a way to run Flex on Mac on its own. Either a VM or PlayOnMac. And then you'd need to copy the Starter Kit files wherever you are using Flex, manipulate them, and then copy them back. Quite fiddly.

players playing in national team
Hi Dears,
in my experience as a manager I often buy players with good potential, they become good players and go to the national team. The problem is that when they go to the national team they become almost unusable even for an entire season, especially if they play for strong national teams. Is there any way to prevent them from calling? I've recently given them up as soon as they go to the national team. Thanks in advance.

Question about International Duty patch!
Hi all...
So I have applied the patch which allows you to stop your players from being on international duty, but does it also stop AI teams from loosing this players also?
I did a few practice runs with Man UTD and Arsenal.
When Man UTD upon the UEFA Cup first and second leg matches I noticed Arsenal had Partly and Tierney on international duty.
When Arsenal upon the UEFA Cup first and second leg I noticed Man UTD had Van De Beek on international duty.
Roma, Lazio and West Ham also had one or two expensive players unavailable for the same reason.
Is this normal, coz I know certain teams in real life loose big players occasionally, especially African players... or is this an issue that doesn't have a fix yet, please?
Thank you as always team.
John

Hello folks,
So I decided to read through the entirety of this thread before posting incase I came across the answer, but unfortunately I did not.
“International duty issues”
After installing the game, update and patch along with Nick’s patch, I choose to then install the the Flex 2 and JLCollection in order to prevent my players going on international duty on the day I have a match, but unfortunately during the month of October on the day of a champions league game the patch did not work and I cannot select my players.
Do I need to click on or, toggle with something within the Flex 2 and JLCollection patches or just simply install them please?
I already selected 2022 in Nicks patch as the player update patch is currently for 2022… I assume this is correct?
I hope someone can help me please, I can’t play this most fantastic game if the patch only sometimes stops players from being unavailable.
Kindest regards
John

Also, if you use Go Home , may be you need 2-3 days before players come back to club. Not sure as I did not use it.

Hi Xeno,
Thank you for your reply.
Ok so this is really strange…
The date is 08/11/22 and I have a champions League match against Dortmund, final game of the group stage, and 8 first team players PLUS many other great players from other major English and European clubs are all away on international duty too and it states in fixture list that it’s for the World Cup.
So essentially the Champions league break never happened.
I took photos but can’t see how to upload them here.

So, World Cup is not finished, stopped, it will never finish. Thls means you choose wrong start year and/or wrong database and/or wrong patches.JohnBruce wrote: ↑Wed Mar 01, 2023 5:33 pm Hi Xeno,

On the other hand, Go Home shall work expected, not sure what is the issue about it.

In fact I now cannot choose any of my top players for league matches until I assume the World Cup is over 
Surely there’s more to do with this Flex2 and JLCollection patch than just downloading it.

Hi Xeno.
I am at a loss... and I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
In order now,
•The game
•v3.9.68 patch
•2022 database
•Nick’s CM0102Patcher (v2.24) which I set to 2022, I tick (apply year specific misc patch) (apply) (save) I also tick Tapani's Regen Code, and Apply known bug fixes
What am I missing?
What am I not selecting?
I don't go into Tools as is advises - do not tamper with this section if you do not know what you are doing - but equally it doesn't say that not tampering with it will cause International Duty issues either.
NOW... on this occasion I did not download the (Flex and JLCollection patches) because I have no idea at what point I should be downloading this, at the beginning? Before Nick's patcher? After? I have no idea Xeno... could you direct me please!
And do I just download the Flex and JLCollection patch and extract, or extract and something else?
Thank you.
I really really appreciate this, I have spent almost month doing nothing but trying to install this game correctly, I am so not techy I'm sorry

Because Flex and JLCollection has “go home” in it and this is what you suggested I use in your message above.
If JLCollection is not needed that’s great, one less thing to do.
May I ask please Xeno what you tick in Nicks patcher to make sure players don’t have this international duty issue?
Do I need to go into “tools” and tick anything? As I don’t touch this part.
