USING FC MODS?

BEFORE YOU PLAY

These five settings are required for the

Gameplay Overhaul to work correctly.

01

Game Type:

Career Mode & Tournament Mode default to Authentic Gameplay. Change this to Custom in those modes too.

CUSTOM GAMEPLAY


02

AUTHENTICITY FEATURES:

OFF

This must be turned off for the mod to work as intended.


03

REGULAR SLIDERS:

These must be manually set to 50/50.

RECOMMENDED EXCEPTION:

I also recommend setting these four sliders to 99:

INTERCEPT ERROR - USER: 99
INTERCEPT ERROR - CPU: 99
BALL DEFLECTION ERROR - USER: 99
BALL DEFLECTION ERROR - CPU: 99

These aren't required, but after extensive testing I've found they complement the existing ball freedom in the mod extremely well.

ALL 50/50


04

CPU SLIDERS:

Select ONE CPU Set-Up Base depending on your preferred experience.
