Now I have FM12, but when I want to play I get this XML parsing error

«not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 of default.xml»

I’m still able to play but I don’t actually know if I can play matches.

What does it mean and how can I fix it?

save game problem

can anybody help,have rename the save game outside the game,when i try to load it in the game there are not displayed

Surprise *****!

When suffering from XML errors we advise downloading a newer version of XML Parser from Microsoft, this can be done so from this link:

I can’t play the game due to an XML parsing error

If you have a shortcut on your desktop you can do the following:
Right-click on the FM shortcut.
Choose «Properties» from the pop-up menu.
In the «Target» field, add the —reset_preferences command line option after «fm.exe», so it should look like this:
«C:Program FilesSports InteractiveFootball Manager 2009fm.exe» —reset_preferences
Press OK and then try to run the game as normal, using the shortcut.
You’ll want to remove the command after you run the game, as otherwise it will continue to reset your preferences every time you launch.

If you don’t have a shortcut you can make one and then perform the instructions on the shortcut you’ve made.
If you purchased and installed the game through Steam you should be able to find the fm.exe in the following directory:
C:/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/Common/Football Manager 2009/
If you purchased and installed the game from a boxed DVD copy you should be able to find the fm.exe in the following directory:
C:/Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2009/

Delete the following folder:

XP: C:Documents and Settings[your username]Application DataSports InteractiveFootball Manager 2009settings

Vista: C:Users[your username]AppDataRoamingSports InteractiveFootball Manager 2009settings

This may solve some issues regarding the XML Errors

Четвертое сообщение содержит в себе информацию по решению некоторых ошибок в игре.

Расположение используемых Football Manager’ом каталогов:

1. Системная папка (настройки и кэш игры):

Расположение:

Скрытый текст

• В Windows XP:

C:Documents and Settings%username%Application DataSports InteractiveFootball Manager %version%

• В Windows Vista, Windows 7:

C:Users (Пользователи)%username%AppDataRoamingSports InteractiveFootball Manager %version%

(!) Не забудьте включить отображение скрытых файлов и папок в системе, иначе рискуете не найти папку AppData:

Показать

• В Windows XP:

Пуск — Настройка — Панель управления — Свойства папки — вкладка Вид — в списке Дополнительные параметры — переключатель Показывать скрытые файлы и папки — Ок

• В Windows Vista, Windows 7:

Пуск — Панель управления — ( Оформление и личная настройка ) — Свойства папки (или Параметры папок) — вкладка Вид (Показать) — в списке Дополнительные параметры — переключатель Показывать скрытые файлы и папки — Ок

Содержимое:

… — FM 2013

Скрытый текст

cache — кэш игры (все когда-либо загружавшиеся в игре скины + события матчей)

logs — логи программы (полезно заглянуть при вылете и узнать текст ошибки, например)

settings — подробные настройки игры + кэшированные файлы подгружаемой базы

temporary — временные файлы + настройки синхронизации (авторизация в соц. сетях)

FM 2014 — …

caches — кэш игры (скины + мелкие настройки интерфейса + события)

cloud — пока не реализованная система передачи сейвов в «облачный» сервис Стима

logs — логи программы (полезно заглянуть при вылете и узнать текст ошибки, например)

preferences — подробные настройки игры + кэшированные файлы выборки подгружаемой базы

temporary — временные файлы + настройки синхронизации (авторизация в соц. сетях)

2. Пользовательская папка Football Manager:

Расположение:

Скрытый текст

По умолчанию создается игрой в Документах пользователя:

• C:Documents and Settings%username%Мои документы (My Documents)Sports InteractiveFootball Manager %version% — Windows XP

• C:Users (Пользователи)%username%Мои документы (Documents)Sports InteractiveFootball Manager %version% — Windows Vista, Windows 7

Содержание:

db setups — пользовательские расширенные настройки подгружаемой базы игры (FM’14 — …)

editor data — пользовательские апдейты базы данных игры

filters — пользовательские фильтры поиска в игре

games — сейвы (файлы сохранений) игры

graphics — папка для легкой графики (лица, логотипы, формы, бэкграунды…)

matches — сохраненные матчи из игры (формат .pkm)

schedules — пользовательские тренировочные расписания (… — FM’12)

screenshots — скриншоты или снимки экрана (в FM’14 эта автономная возможность отключена)

shortlists — пользовательские короткие списки игроков (шортлисты)

skins — пользовательские скины (интерфейс)

tactics — пользовательские тактики

temporary — временные файлы игры (действительно при активации в настройках пункта о хранении временных файлов)

views — пользовательские настройки отображения информации об игроках (команда, поиск игроков/персонала и т.п.; FM’14 — …)

db, sounds — номинальные каталоги, игрой не используются

(!) Если какой-либо папки вы у себя не обнаружили, ее можно создать руками при надобности.

3. Корневая папка игры:

Расположение:

X:Program FilesSteamsteamappscommonfootball manager %version%

(!) Относительное, точное расположение зависит от местонахождения Стима.

Содержание:

Исполняемые файлы, прилагаемые динамические библиотеки, дефолтная графика, текстуры, объекты и прочие файлы.

Нас интересуют конкретные каталоги по нескольким направлениям:

1. data / db / %version% / (Старое расположение (до FM’12): data / updates / db / %version%)

dbc — файлы базы данных, упакованные в сжатом виде и содержащие информацию, подгружаемую по умолчанию в новую игру.

edt — содержит конфиг-файлы (.edt), дающие возможность добавлять/изменять данные, не начиная новой игры (простейший редактор — Блокнот Windows).

lnc / all — см. edt, также содержит столь любимый многими fake.lnc (lnc содержит строчную букву L).

2. tools /

editor — корневая папка Эдитора (предыгрового редактора базы данных), именно с его помощью создаются апдейты для FM. (Расположение действительно для русскоязычной версии. Обладателям многоязычной Эдитор придется скачивать отдельно из Стима — раздел Инструменты.)

resource archiver — архиватор файлов .fmf (формат данных игры в сжатом виде).

XML Parsing Error

Если у вас при переходе на экраны, связанные с тактикой (до матча, во время, при выходе из него и т.п.) и не только, появляется это сообщение:

Ошибка XML parsing error! "not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 of %filename%.xml"

Значит вам необходимо установить MSXML 4.0 SP3 (в шапке темы), а также удалить настройки и кэш игры.

Ошибка с кодом 0xc0000005

Если у вас при запуске FM или при работе с ним возникает подобная ошибка:

Скрытый текст

'Error: access violation 0xC0000005'

"An application error has occurred and an application error log is being generated. Exception: access violation (0xC0000005), Address"

'Exception 0xc0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION at 0x00000000'

'Ошибка при инициализации приложения (0xc0000005). Для выхода из приложения нажмите кнопку ОК.'

Или даже появляется на синем экране (так называемом, экране «смерти»).

Проблема, как правило, в неправильном обращении к памяти (memory access violation).

В зависимости от причин этого сбоя, находится решение:

1. Ошибки в реестре — ищем и исправляем ошибки с помощью CCleaner.

2. Наличие вирусов — проверяем всю систему (например, с помощью бесплатного сканера Dr.Web CureIT).

3. Неисправный модуль ОЗУ — тестируем утилитой Memtest86+.*

* Инструкция под спойлером:

Скрытый текст

1. Сначала нужно выбрать носитель, с которого будет произведена проверка, ведь для каждого носителя существует своя скачиваемая версия. Это может быть флешка (сделанная загрузочной) или чистый компакт-диск (CD или DVD).

2. Подготавливаем выбранный носитель.

Для флешки: Вставить флешку в разъем. Распаковать архив в любую папку и запустить полученный установочный файл. (Все существующие на флешке файлы будут удалены, т.к. установщик будет форматировать накопитель. Также, рекомендуется поставить флажок рядом с меню выбора флешки — форматирование в FAT32.)

Для компакт-диска: Распаковать архив и записать полученный файл .iso на диск любой программой записи дисков.

3. Проверка.

Вставить флешку/диск в привод/разъем и перезагрузить компьютер. На этапе загрузки BIOS’а, зайти в него (клавиша Del (Delete) или F8 — на разных матрицах по-разному), выбрать загрузку нашего носителя (либо поставить первым в списке загрузок), выйти из BIOS’a (сохранить при запросе). Далее, если все правильно сделано, загрузится не операционная система, а Memtest, который начнет тестировать ОЗУ автоматически.

P.S. Всего у программы 9 различных тестов для выявления неисправностей в модуле (некоторые осуществляются в несколько проходов. После завершения каждого теста можно отменить дальнейшую проверку клавишей ESC).

Тестирование одной плашки памяти может занять до 8 часов. Также, циклов проверки может быть бесконечное множество. Поэтому рекомендуется после 2 циклов проверку останавливать.

При выявлении хотя бы одной ошибки, уже стоит задуматься о смене модуля, в котором она была найдена.
