v0.3.0 Beta

Beta — bugs can still happen; every change the app makes is backed up and can be undone from the Change log.
Bug reports and ideas: blue41management@gmail.com

New

• SP Football Life 2027 support, next to FL26:
  • Game switch (PES 2021 / FL26 / FL27) on Home and under the logo on every page. Installed games are found by
    themselves; each game keeps its own game, Sider and save folders.
  • FL27 saves work out of the box (FL27's save key, published by SmokePatch, is built in: thanks!).
  • Balls page reads FL27's own ball server (omb), with readable competition names.
  • Boots & gloves show FL27's menu pictures.
• Move from another game (e.g. FL26 → FL27): pick what to bring over: Sider content roots, Lua modules with their
  content, add-on game files (commentary packs, face packs). Kits, balls and stadiums can go straight into FL27's own
  modules. Nothing is overwritten, the other game stays as it is, every copy can be undone.
• Move a career (Become a Legend, experimental): continue an FL26 Become a Legend or Master League career in FL27.
• Languages: Español and Português (Brasil) (Settings → Language).
• Notices: requirement checks (Sider options, ball server, chant module…) with download links, and "found ✓" when
  they're in place. Close any notice; it stays listed on the new Notices page.
• BAL full team control (new module, install from Home): in Become a Legend control the whole team, choose Cursor
  Change in the pause menu and edit the Game Plan in matches (formation, tactics, substitutions). The spectator
  prompt at kick-off is removed automatically.
• Ball manager: assign balls to competitions by drag and drop (sets, finals, winter, hi-vis winter, winter weeks),
  competitions with the same name and balls shown as one card, ball page (pictures, rename everywhere, menu picture
  from an image, texture export / import), import ball packs (zip, 7z, rar or folder) with a review.
• Set-piece takers on the Team page (Set pieces tab), kept in the game by the Captain & set pieces module.
• Player editor (Become a Legend): every value of your own player as the game keeps it in your career save.
• Brazil chant set included (with Liverpool and Corinthians).
• New version notice on Home (one check at start; silent offline).

Changed

• Become a Legend menu: Team (numbers, captain, set pieces), My player, National team, Transfers,
  Move a career. Cheats: No Injuries, Fitness & form lock, Full team control.
• Become a Legend modules are out of test (1.0+); Captain & set pieces and National numbers now keep working after a
  club changes its manager. Update them from Home → "Update modules".
• The memory search of the Become a Legend modules runs in small steps in the background (no frozen menus).
• The sidebar follows the light theme; a visible collapse button (bottom left); arrows show when more pages are above
  or below.
• "Game running" checks only the selected game (FL26 open doesn't block changes to FL27).

Fixed

• Boots & gloves menu pictures inside the game's own archives (compressed) now show.
• Ball role tags (finals, winter…) easier to read on the ball pictures.
• Stuttering caused by one of the new modules.

v0.2.0 Beta

Beta bugs can still happen; every change the app makes is backed up and can be undone from the Change log.
Bug reports and ideas: blue41management@gmail.com

New

• Boots & gloves manager:
  • Every boot and glove your game uses, with its menu picture (or texture), menu place and how many players wear it.
    Pictures and names follow an item in and out of the menu.
  • Click one for its page: pictures, names shown in the game's menu (rename), who wears it, give it to players,
    move it in the menu, swap it, export / import textures, menu picture from any image or from the built-in
    generator (your logos, 13 free fonts, colours from the texture).
  • Drag a tile onto another to swap their places (players stay with the place, or keep what they wear); drag the
    player count onto another tile to move all those players.
  • Filters: search, brand (menu and the rest separately), and an order for the items outside the menu (most / least
    worn, name, brand, number).
  • Import pack (zip, 7z, rar or folder): see what's new, what would replace yours and what you already have.
    New items replace yours by line (your menu places kept, players move with them, also in your Edit-mode data);
    you can pick another item to replace, or "Choose a place" when nothing matches. Optionally delete the replaced
    items (Recycle Bin) and use the new pack's player list. Progress bar while installing.
  • Fill in names and pictures from the name lists and PNG pictures your installed packs carry.
  • Missing: players whose boot or glove isn't installed: random, one for all, or one by one.
  • Select to delete (tick tiles) and Remove unused, both to the Recycle Bin.
  • Changes also update players you edited in the game's Edit mode: the last edit wins, here or in the game.
• Become a Legend:
  • BAL editor: shirt numbers; Captain tab (the captain the module keeps, optionally also in the save);
    set-piece takers (coming soon: shown, locked in this version).
  • National numbers: templates per position, star players, your number; apply to the save, or install the
    in-game module that numbers every new call-up before each international match.
  • Transfers: move a player to another club in your save (right away; outside the transfer window only when
    you confirm). History of this window's transfer news.
• Cheats (Become a Legend): No Injuries, and My player (keeps your stamina, form and days out).
• Home: tells you when the studio's Sider modules in your game need an update (one click), and what the studio
  needs (Sider, with a download link).

Changed

• Every Sider module re-reads its settings while the game runs: changes saved in the app apply within seconds.
• Captain module renamed "Captain & set pieces"; its page moved into the BAL editor (Captain tab).
• Clearer texts everywhere ("new pack", what each option does); long texts wrap instead of being cut off.

Good to know

• After loading a career, the Become a Legend modules need up to about half a minute to find their data; Sider's
  overlay applies them at once (the pages say which key).
• Close the game (or stay in the main menu) before saving to a career from the app.

v0.1.0 Early Access

Early Access — first public version. Some pages are placeholders for features in development.

What's in it

• Sider, made easy: every sider.ini setting explained, with the right control for each value; modules and content
  roots on/off and reordering; text view with before/after comparison.
• Custom crowd chants: drop MP3/WAV files on a team; converted and loudness-matched for the game, a different song
  each time, home/away volume, preview, rename. Liverpool and Corinthians sets included.
• No Injuries module (also in Become a Legend).
• Safe by design: every change backed up, verified and undoable from the Change log.

Experimental

• BAL Captain module — keeps the captain you choose in Become a Legend. Once per game session, open the Sider
  overlay in the Become a Legend menus and press [6]; then pick the captain with [2]/[3] and [4] (or in the app).
  Known bug: after a Become a Legend match the captain may be reset — press [4] in the overlay again.

Early Access

Bugs are expected. Every change the app makes is backed up and can be undone from the Change log.
