Creating your own leagues

Music, weather and sounds

Give leagues and countries their own entrance music, goal anthem, weather station, fan chants and match sounds.

Music and weather station for a league or cup

These three lines belong to the league or cup above them:

LineWhat it doesName in the Team Editor
! intro "Footlandia/entrance.mp3"Entrance music before the league's or cup's matches (also written ! introsound).Entrance music
! goal "Footlandia/goal.mp3"Goal anthem when the home team scores (also written ! goalsound).Goal anthem
! metar "EDDM"A weather station reference from earlier versions of the game. It is kept in the data, but the current game does not fetch live weather from weather stations.Weather station

Music files are your own files in the personal Teamsounds folder; they are not stored inside the world. Cup music counts more than club music. Locations, formats and the order of priority are explained in Custom football worlds.

Fan chants

A country, a league or a club can bring its own fan chants. Write the lines into the country part, the league or the club file:

#@cs fansounds-mode append

In the Team Editor the fields are called Fan sound folder, Fan sound mode and Included sound pools.

Match sounds

Single match sounds can be replaced, muted or made louder or quieter – again for a country, a league or a club:

Match sounds for a league
#@cs sound-folder "Packs/Footlandia North/Sound"
#@cs sound-crowd follow-mode
#@cs sound-mute CROWD
#@cs sound-original WHISTLE
#@cs sound-volume GOAL 40
LineWhat it does
#@cs sound-folder "…"A folder with replacement sounds, inside your personal CustomSounds folder.
#@cs sound-crowd follow-modeHow the crowd noise behaves together with fan chants: inherit, keep, mute or follow-mode.
#@cs sound-mute CROWDMutes one sound.
#@cs sound-original WHISTLEAlways plays the game's own version of one sound.
#@cs sound-volume GOAL 40Sets the volume of one sound, from 0 to 100.

The sounds are called CROWD (stadium ambience), BOOS, GOAL (goal cheers), WHISTLE, KICK (ball kick), BOUNCE (ball bounce), WOODWORK (goal frame), THUNDER1 and THUNDER2. In the Team Editor you find them under Match sounds: Match sound folder, Crowd with fan chants and, for every sound, a choice between Automatic, Muted and Original plus a volume field. Settings are passed on from the game's own sounds to your personal default, then to the country, the home league of the club and finally the club. National teams have no home league. Wrong values are ignored and reported. None of these settings changes any sporting rule.
