I've uploaded the update to the zone. Hope it works okay.

Forgot to mention that the update is for the English Premier and Divs 1-3. Other countries are available from the site.

The original is smaller because it is compressed with Propack (RNC for those curious)

SWOS works perfectly when all the files are uncompressed, so that isn't why it crashes!

And if the team file was edited with SWOSED then I doubt it is faulty. Most likely if it is faulty someone Hex-Edited it and modified a byte that they shouldn't have touched!!!

The England league file (TEAM.008) MUST be compressed using ProPack or else the game will crash in the career mode. It is the biggest league file in the game and SWOS cannot handle it uncompressed. It's simply to large for the buffer SWOS uses. You can download RNC ProPack from Aminet. I've personally updated all of my own 2003 teams. Anyone interested can PM me.

Well there ya go!

Maybe the updated WHDInstall can address this and make the buffer larger

I've done that and it works.
Thanks Steve
