Update 67+68

Hello everyone,

vote for Update 67 was won by Ecuador+ (adding level 3 + youth pyramid) so it will be done for this update.

In Update 66 will be added South Africa+ (fixed level 3), Paraguay+ (added youth pyramid), Bolivia+ (added youth pyramid), ASEAN Club Championship and SAFF Club Championship.

• South Africa+ - added missing teams (cca 70% teams were missing) in level 3, added missing cities/stadiums/kits in level 3, added qualification rounds for South African FA Cup, added U19 system (normally is level 5)

• Bolivia+ - added youth league (U19), format based on season 2024/25

• Paraguay+ - added youth leagues (U23/U19 for teams from level 1)), added regional youth league (for teams from level 2-4)

• ASEAN Club Championship - starting in 2024/25 season, added prize money/rules, added format from 2025/26

• SAFF Club Championship - starting in 2026 (was planned for 2024 but was postponed)

This week I finally finished the pack of all updates (Main to Update 65) and graphics for level 6 of Switzerland which both are now avaible.

South Africa is in lots of ways specific, because level 4 is U21 league and level 5 is U19 league but both of them are really big and it would take some time to make them and with lack of information that there is, it might be even impossible. There was lots of missing teams in level 3 (cca 70%) so all of them are newly added. There is in general not a lots of good information and if there is information there are grammatical errors or used old names of cities and things take long time to find (one example is that one team is playing on "Westfalia Stadium" which is very german name, but after my detective work I found it (you can put these coordinates to google maps -23.69383305235533, 30.144950511546885 and you can look at it)).
Another thing is that there is lots of local tournaments that are played over a weekend or week (adult or U21 or youth) so I will try to create some U21 local tournament so U21 teams have something to play (because only few are in level 3 and so U21 plays mostly just friendlies).
Newly are added South African FA Cup qualifiers, now every team from level 3 down has a chance to play main cup.

In Bolivia and Paraguay are added youth systems, Paraguay has this weird system where results from all categories are added together with final playoff, but because there is no U13/U15 in FM it is just simplified, in Paraguay is added regional U19 which might not be something that is played (I didn't find any information about regional U19 leagues) but I wanted to have youth matches for teams in level 2-4. Winners of both nations U19 play in next year's U20 Copa Libertadores.

ASEAN Club Championship was played in 2024/25 with 10 ASEAN nations (14 teams), formats and prize money are based on that, from 2025/26 is played with 16 teams format

SAFF Club Championship is planned to start in 2026, added is format that is proposed

For Update 67 will be done Ecuador+ (adding level 3 + youth system), with updating some nations from Main Release/Update 1 (Algeria, Iran, Bahrain, Lebanon, Senegal there is still lots of them).

Voting for Update 68 will have Colombia (adding level 4) , Morocco+ (adding level 4+youth leagues), Japan+ (completing fix of adult levels) and Jamaica+ (adding level 2 + youth system)

As always thank you for your support and I wish you nice weekend :)
