modifying the leagues structure is a challenging, most of the leagues format (like champions league) remains the same format, the 2.bundesliga is added for the first time and its stable, with some drawbacks:
- only 14 teams (out of 18) are added in this league for stability reasons.
- this league cannot be viewed in edit mode, but the teams in this league can be viewed or edited in edit mode, located in the classics and others category
- the first game of the season shows (day19), instead of day 1
- competition server heavily customized based on (Gerlamp) server.
Note about 2. Bundesliga:
starting from version 1.2
Due to the irregularities in the new league schedule, that can lead to a crash moving to the first league, the promotion from this league has been deactivated until a propre solution is applied.
users can manually re-activate it if wanted, rename and use the OLD regulations located here:
SP Football Life 2025\SiderAddons\content\competitions
Gameplay:
many accumulated updates to the GP since last version.
- the gameplay is made to compensate for the new Konami style of stats (higher stats for lower tier players)
- the gameplay is less automatic than PES, users can switch to manual controls (FUMA) for total freedom, or switch to assisted for a more automated gameplay.
- the gameplay is tested for a long term career modes.
- try the difficulty that suits you best, the most difficult level (legend) can be unlocked after winning 5 games in super-star level.
