/vg/ League 8 Signups

This is a signup page for teams to play in /vg/ League 8. Signups will be open until May 6th at 11:59 PM UTC.

Signups are currently OPEN. We will take the first 40 teams until May 7th.

Rules:

1. Only teams that were accepted to play by their general may participate.
2. Anyone can sign up the team, whether it is a fan or a manager. Rule 1 still applies.
3. Managers should sign their posts (~~~~)
4. You must have a team page prepared with a roster and team infobox filled out and a link to your proof of interest (archive link preferable) to verify signups. It does not have to be posted right away, but it must be before the registration deadline. Copy the team page from another team if you don't know how to do one from scratch.
5. You do NOT need any managerial verification to reserve a spot. However, you will need a quick verification through Skype if you would like to manage a /vg/ team. No webcam or microphone required, just a few questions regarding whether you actually browse the general will be asked. Please leave a Skype name for quick verification.
6. Returning generals also need verification, however their verification check will be more relaxed due to acceptance of previous entry.

• You may look at the old signup pages if you are still unsure on how to signup your general.

Becoming a Manager

While intimidating at first, the steps required to become a team manager are simpler than what most would assume.
In order to become the manager for your general you must:

1. Assign a name/trip to yourself for live managing purposes.
2. Put your name on your team's wiki page.
3. Download Pro Evolution Soccer 2017 and the 4CC DLC, make sure you have it patched to 1.02. [Working torrents will be linked here soon]
4. Wait for a Team ID to be assigned to your team before starting to assemble it. In the meanwhile read the Rules and the Tactics pages at least once to get an idea of can and can't be done.
5. As soon as you get the Team ID, check the Team IDs table to find out its corresponding VGL team slot in the game. You can now edit its players to fit your team's tactics. You can do this with the ingame editor, but using the savedata editing tools (preferably NGE) is recommended since they're quicker to use.
6. Once your team is ready you can make a Tactical Export and check it for correctness. From the main PES menu go to Edit > Data Management > Export Team and export your team. It'll be saved as a TEXPORT file in your Documents/Konami/... folder. Grab the AATF checking tool, read its readme, and use it to check your export. After solving any eventual errors the tactical part is ready!
7. Regarding aesthetics, you need at least three kits (home, away, goalkeeper) and a custom face for each of your players. All of these can either be done with the ingame editor or by following the guides in the wiki.
8. The Kits guide is easy to follow, although a bit long, but the Faces guide is quite complex. If you just want to make card heads or box heads, follow this quick guide. If you have some models you want to convert into PES heads, follow this guide instead.
9. Once all of your aesthetics are ready, read the AET page to prepare an Aesthetics Export. This export is needed even if all of your aesthetics have been made ingame, but in this case you'll only have to put a Note txt in it to provide your team colours.

And that's all there is to it! If you need further help, reach out to Denkoko or QD on the VGL discord.

/vg/ Reward Rules

Roster position on the official /vg/ team is will be given to the teams that place in the top 22 in final rankings.

The general of the Golden Glove winner will have the option to have their rep be the starting GK for /vg/. On top of this, you may choose one of the following: have the /vg/ GK kit will be themed around your rep, have the /vg/ GK be themed around your general, or choose a sponsor to slap over the exsisting /vg/ kit.

Generals, please note that you may submit a list of favored positions that you'd like your rep to play. I'd prefer a list, 1-5(1 being the position you would favor the most, etc) on said positions. Note that the higher you place, the more likely your player will get the most favored position, meaning if you place 22, you probably won't get any of the 5 picked positions as they could be completely filled by then, leaving me to put you wherever we need your rep. Also note that I reserve the right to position medals myself if need be due to the fact that some positions just do not warrant a medal being placed there(i.e. Gold defender), or the fact that the choice would be illegal, or previously taken(i.e. GK medal, or Gold CF respectively).
