Issues unresolved

30 FPS Cap on 3D Matches

While the game plays at 60 frames per second in the normal manager interface, going into a 3D Match caps the frame rate at 30. There is currently no known fix for this issue.

Issues fixed

Edit game database

To edit the game's database you have open EdManager13.exe that is in your install folder. Sometimes, even after exporting your custom database to the actual game, nothing will change. Be sure to run both programs (EdManager13.exe and Manager13.exe) with admin rights, and you'll be able to overwrite the game's database with your modifications.
