02 Save Game Editor — Cm 01

If you’ve already agreed that a player will join you on July 1st, but you want him NOW:


Every player has hidden stats that the vanilla game conceals. These are the true determinants of a player’s consistency.

To edit these, select a player in the editor, look for an "Extra Attributes" or "Hidden" tab. Change consistency to 20 for all your first-team players for a devastatingly reliable team.

Unlike modern in-game editors, the CM 01/02 Save Game Editor is a third-party, external program. You save your game, alt-tab to Windows 98/XP (or a modern compatibility wrapper), load your .sav file into the editor, and rewrite reality.

The most famous versions include:

Let’s walk through three common scenarios. These are the reasons 90% of players search for a cm 01 02 save game editor.

The CM 01/02 community is divided into two camps.

The Purist’s View: "Editing the save devalues the game. The joy of CM is overcoming adversity. If Mark Kerr gets a broken leg, that’s a story. If you edit it away, you’re playing a spreadsheet, not a simulation."

The Realist’s View: "We are adults with jobs and families. I do not have 20 gaming hours per week to rebuild a club from scratch after a fake financial crisis. The editor fixes bugs, corrects unrealistic player regressions, and lets me enjoy the match engine without the UI frustrations."

Our Take: Use the editor with intent.

The best way to use the editor is as a narrative enhancer, not a win button. Want to replay the 2002 World Cup? Edit all international squads to be correct. Want to see if you can beat Real Madrid if you give yourself a £500m budget? Go ahead. It’s your single-player game.
