version 21.3.0 in progress
expected: end of February (released)
a new version is in progress, many upgrades needed to be done for this version concerning the database, the winter transfer window is open for all leagues, many players are being transferred between teams, some leagues will start a new season, this means there are promoted and relegated teams to manage.
we will take this opportunity to make some changes in this version, most notably:
Players
the current database contains a huge number of real players, and we have reached the game limits for the maximum number of players, to be able to better update the database, many players will be deleted from the database to make room, most of the players planned to be deleted are low rated recently retired players, or low rated free agents.
MLS
this year, the MLS in real life added more teams to the first division, sadly the game can only handle 20 teams in the MLS, this version will only have 20 MLS teams available in this league, the extra teams will be removed and will only have the maximum league number of 20 teams available, this way we can free team slots for other uses.
the teams selected are based on multiple factors, including the team's popularity, value, and recent results.
Master league
the changes in the database will require a new master league after installing the new version, once or twice each year this is necessary to keep the patch up to date and to keep the database aligned with the original ID.
incase the user prefers to continue the master league started with previous versions then it is better not to install the new version. new teams, players, and transfers would not be applied in the old master league anyway.
SP Expansion
we will be releasing the first release of some expansions for this version, read about expansions

Older games:
we will use the same scripts to convert this database to older games, although most contents and graphics are gradually stopping for older games, the database will be upgraded from the new patch, the older the game the more time it will take to release this version.
Graphics
the graphics in this version are minimal, most contents are up to date, some kits will be updated but mot much as our kitmaker cannot produce many kits due to personal occupation.
SP Expansion
we will be releasing the first release of some expansions for this version, read about expansions
the expansions work only with sp21.3.0 (PES21)
we will start with releasing one expansion (the Indonesian expansion) and will analyze the user's feedback, if everything goes well many other expansions will be available too.
Note
it will take time for this to be completed, depending on the availability of free time we will try to accomplish the new contents as much as possible.
