Please only post a help thread when you've tried the following below, posting with your Steam Console information and Workshop Logs


How much space does my account have for Football Manager 2014, and how is this used up?

Steam currently allows1GB of Cloud space per user account.
FM & FMC Save Games are used in your cloud storage for Football Manager 2014.

You must have an active Internet connection to use the Cloud Save Settings.


How can I remove saves from my Cloud Storage?

On a computer that is fully synchronised with Steam Cloud saves for Football Manager, go to Load or Save game and select the 'Cloud' radio button.
Here will be listed all your saves on the cloud. Select a save game and then the 'delete' button to remove them from the cloud.

You must have an active Internet connection to use the Cloud Save Settings.


How Can I make sure my save game has completed to the Cloud?

When Saving the Game, select the 'Cloud' radio button. Save the game within this folder.

The Save Game will only be synced to the Cloud when you exit the game, so please only exit Steam when the save game has been fully synched to the Cloud,

If you try to exit the game before it's synched, a pop-up will remind you to wait until this is complete.

You must have an active Internet connection to use the Cloud Save Settings.


How Can I Load my Cloud Save Game on a New Computer?

On a new machine, make sure you are signed into the same Steam account as where your game was originally installed and you saved your save game to the Steam cloud.

Go to the Load Game and select the 'Cloud' radio button. Here will be listed all your saves on the cloud. Select a save game and then the 'Load' button to load your save.

You must have an active Internet connection to use the Cloud Save Settings.


How can I see if there is something going wrong with Cloud Saving or Syncing?

Please note that if the Steam client is just showing "0%", this is not indicative that there is something going wrong.

Unlike other Steam games, Football Manager Save Games can be quite large in file size.

Please be aware that this can take time, depending on the speed of your connection.

Upload speeds are generally slower than download speeds so please be patient if trying to sync a large number of files.
