Fedinator 2000 News
FIFA 2000 Central posted some screen shots from Fedinator 2000 today. Fedinator 2000 is being made by Eric Dysinger who has worked very hard to decode this and get it to us. The release date has not been set but you can expect a good program when it does come out. Currently, Fedinator 2000 supports up to 15 characters for names and much more.
Chau Le is also working on a FIFA 2000 editor which should be out within weeks. Good luck to both of them and their venture to bring us with a FIFA 2000 editor.

Libertadores Super Patch 2000
Amadeu Borda from FIFA 2000 Central Brasil has kindly asked me to let you all know that they are currently in the making of a Libertadores Super Patch 2000 which will features all of the first and second division teams of the Brazilian league (even comes complete with official kits), some of the third division teams in the Brazilian league, complete Argentinian league, some other Latin American teams, and even a new replay logo for the famous sports channel in Brazil, SPORTV. Unfortunately, to add those leagues to the game, it will have to replace some of the current leagues that is in FIFA 2000, such as Spanish, Danish, and English leagues. The Libertadores Cup itself will even overwrite the European's Champions Cup. =( But then again, I'm quite sure that Brazilian fans would be very happy with the patch. =)
Amadeu has also sent me some screen shots as well. Feel free to take a look for yourself below, guys!
They are expecting the release date to be somewhere in the end of January 2000. So just hold on, folks! =)

New 64 Colour Kit Tutorial!
To fulfill your apetite for a more detailed and thorough explanation about how to make your own 64 colours kit, I have just uploaded a new tutorial to suit that. I have convert the original Word document to a HTML format, so you can read an online version of it or you can get the ZIP file which contain the original Word document itself and all of the supporting files for this tutorial.
This great tutorial have been submitted to me by Simon Shepherd, and was made specifically for Adobe Photoshop users. However, other graphics editor such as Paint Shop Pro should be able to do just that. You just have to find the right tools in your own graphics editor. Thanks for the contribution, Simon! I'm sure this will be very useful for all of the FIFA kits maker. =)
Remember, if you had any tutorial that you think will be useful for all of the FIFA editors out there, please feel free to and we would be more than glad to publish it. Full credit will be given, as always. Thanks. =)

A 'Blackout'...
Well, I know you all must've been wondering for yourself; "Why weren't there lots of updates yesterday?". Unfortunately, I have had a 'blackout' yesterday.

FIFA Latinamérica 2000 Updates
The main man over at FIFA LA and a buddy of mine, Xavier Báez, has kindly let me know some very valuable updates about the FIFA Latinamérica 2000 patch. He has told me that Ariel Santarelli (the guy who will make the Latin Graphics Patch - LGP) has teamed up with them over there, and they are really looking forward to give the best out of this patch. He has also let me know that he has posted news about new and upcoming leagues from their network, such as:
" Costa Rica League (Liga Tica 2000),
" Venezuela League (BETA),
" Bolivian Clausura League,
" Chilean League (Mega Patch)
So, if you are a great fans of one of the above leagues, I suggest you head on over to FIFA LA right now to pick up the rest pieces of news. =)
Along with all of the decent news bite, he has also sent me some fabulous screen shots that shows us some of the great features that will be included in this patch. You should see one of them in the right of this text, and the rest below. The one on the right even shows us that most of the environment have been edited neatly. Here's another list that tells you what's hot in this shot:
" New 64 Colours Kit,
" New shorts,
" New nets (even the posts are new!),
" New animated real-life crowds,
" New ball (it's not the final version)
A couple of the shots above are taken from the Argentinian Graphics Patch (which are very awesome with all of those new sponsors!), while the shot in the middle of them is an example 64 colours kit for the Ecuador champion, LDU Quito. You are more than welcome to take a closer look at any or all of the screen shots above by simply clicking your mouse on the thumbnails. Enjoy! =)

New FEd2000 Screen Shot!
Alright! Chau Le has gave us another Christmas gift, folks! =D This time he has left a message back in our FIFA 2000 Forum, and attached with it is a new screen shot of the FEd2000. It shows the team page, and in the screen shot you should notice a big improvement from the previous FEd; that we will be able to edit Team Management data such as formation and strategy (attacking and defending style, passing preference, etc.). Woohoo! Thanks, Chau! =D
Chau has also wrote that we WILL be able to edit player's height and build (weight, probably?), we MIGHT be able to add new players and teams to the database, and there's also a strong POSIBBILITY that we will be able to have up to 64 stadiums in the game. (WOW!) =D But unfortunately, with all of the hype, he has told us that we still CAN'T add new leagues... =(
And above all, he would also like to wish Merry Christmas to you all. =)

Christmas Present: Patch Of the Day
I have just been informed by Chris Davies, that at this very moment, the Patch Of The Day (ESP 2000) is ready to be downloaded here. The complete installation file is 14.1 MB and contains the complete first version of the incredible English League add-on, Patch Of The Day.
Due to the fact that this news is so "hot off the press", we're unable to provide you with screen shots, and all the info on the patch. However, I can tell you that includes nearly everything the original ESP (FIFA 99 version) included. Such as all the teams and players (including correct numbers) of the English Premiere League as well as Division 1, 2 and 3.
We'll be posting a lot more information about Patch Of The Day as soon as it comes to hand. But for now, make sure you get your hands on it as soon as possible. You won't be disapointed.

Game Of The Millennium
John Houlihan from GameSpot UK has let me know that they have started their countdown for their massive holiday feature on the Top 100 Games of the Millennium. They take a look at where they rate and review what they think are the most important, influential and just downright brilliant games of the past 30 odd years.
Controversial? Possibly...
Will your favorites be there? Should they be higher, lower or even somewhere in between? Well don’t worry, because they’re going to use this feature to launch their inaugural GameSpot UK Readers’ Games of the Millennium where there will be ample chance to vote for your own personal favorites and a chance to chat and swap opinions in the online forum. Based on reader’s votes, the winning games will each receive a special award and a chance to proudly display the Game of the Millennium logo, but most importantly the readers will decide once and for all which is the best Game of the past Millennium.
You all can take a part in this fun event by going to this URL.
Think hard, think long, have your vote, have your say and above all, have fun! =D

Merry Christmas...
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The CD’s were loaded in PC’s with care,
In hopes that Chau Le soon would be there;
The gamers were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of better fifa games danced in their heads;
And my wife in her undies, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap;
When out in the living room there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter;
Away to the computer I flew like a flash,
Tore open my email and hoped it would not crash;
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Came shinning through the window on my keyboard below,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a screenshot from Chau Le, yes it’s FEd2000 my dear!
His editor’s are so easy, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment that this would do the trick;
Then a loud crash from within the chimney it came,
And he winked at me, whistled and called me by name;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;
Now Ric, he said, look here, it is not quite ready,
I’m working on it hard, my time I’m spending plenty;
Don’t ask me how soon, I’m not quite yet sure, But I can tell you this, when it’s ready, it’ll have the cure;
All your changes will be easy to make, that I do know,
So let me get back to work, it’s on with the show;
He spoke not another word, but went straight to his work,
making an editor, then turned with a jerk;
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle;
But I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight,
"MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD-NIGHT!"

Woohoo! I'm Back!
Phew! Finally, back in my hometown (and in-house of FIFA 2000 Online, of course) after 5-days long vacation at my grandparents' house. And my, oh my, what a lot of news bites I've missed here... =( The whole page is full of decent news posts that I haven't read!
Unfortunately to me and all of us here is that there is a very sad news in all of that decent news posts. That my very good and close buddy, Kristoffer has decided to take a break from the FIFA world. =(
Now, what I'm going to do is to turn on my ICQ, check if he and the rest of the gang are still online, and have a little chat with them before I go to bed.
I'm very sorry folks, but I'm very tired after a day full of journey, so the regular news entries that I usually do just have to wait for a day. =( But don't worry guys, rest assure that I'll be back tomorrow with plenty of exciting updates! =)
I'll see you all later, guys! =)

Run the Downloads Section!
Want to run the Downloads section of the most popular FIFA 2000 site on the net?
Well as you all may have heard, Lior, the webmaster of the Downloads, is away for 3 weeks. I had planned to get Behrang to do the Downloads in Lior's absence, but he's busy enough with the news updating.
Therefore I am looking for someone who's really interested, and who has a lot of time spare to for the position. I know a lot of people have applied for various jobs at this site. I thank you all for applying. If I do not email you back, I'm affraid you're simply not who I am looking for.
So please, if you are good with HTML and know you can keep the Downloads at the same standard it is in now, please .

Last Words
Like Matt said I'm now leaving FIFA 2000 Online. Why? -I'm sure many of you want an answer on that question, but here are my reasons:
* I have gone tired of FIFA 2000. I want to write and wait for another game.
* I don't think I'm doing the job properly. Just see on december month. What have I done in this month?
* I really like to have more control of a site. I don't feel that I fit into a postion which I am currently in. It's better to work on a site that you have created by yourself from the ground. Gives you more adrenaline to your work and pulls out the best of you. You always compete with other sites. This is just like I did with the previous FIFA 2000 Network.
* I want vacation! I have been working hard the last year with different web sites. I now want some months vacation.
I would like to thank Matt for offering me this job, Mike, Ric and Lior. Working on FIFA 2000 Online has given me more experience in how things work on a large site.
(People who have sent their files to me, please send them in again to .
Kristoffer - signing out!

I'm Being Deserted! ;-)
Well... it seems everyone is taking a break around Christmas time. I'm sure a lot of you have looked at the amount of staff here at FIFA 2000 Online and wondered why we haven't been swamping you all with news and downloads. I'll try to explain why.
1. It is very hard to post "a lot" of news when "a lot" of news does not exist. We post as much news as possible, and if you compare our news posts to other FIFA 2000 sites I'm sure you'll agree we are just as active.
2. Nicky has disapeared. He's been offline now for a couple of months. To say I'm disappointed in him would be an understatement.
3. Mike has been away. Mike is our best updater.
4. Kris took what was meant to be a short break from updating the Downloads section. However, yesterday he informed me that he would be taking a much longer break and would prefer not to continue on in the FIFA 2000 scene. I'd like to thank Kris for his time and effort he put in while he was with us.
5. Lior today informed me that he'll be taking a holiday to Israel for 3 weeks, but will be back.
It's not all bad news. Behrang has agreed to take over maintaining the Downloads while Lior is away, and Mike will be back in town today. I have a lot more time now, so I can do a few updates too.
If you're interested in working for this site, and if you're qualified and motivated enough, I'm sure I can find a position for you.

EA's Official FIFA 2000 Update

Who Is The New Guy?
Well you have another avid FIFA 2000 fan out here joining the team. First of all my name is Behrang Sohrabi. I have previously worked on a few sites and currently write for Iran Sports Press. I will be updating the News and downloads section when needed. You can contact me by sending e-mail to I will try to reply as soon as I can.
A bit about myself personally. I was born in Iran but moved to the United States at a very young age. I am currently attending college majoring in computer science but I am also very interested in journalism. My favorite National team is Iran. My favorite club team is Hamburger SV of the German Bundesliga. My favorite players are Mehdi MahdaviKia, Ali Daei and Rivaldo. The most memorable game in my memory was Iran vs. Australia in Australia when Iran came back to tie the game by scoring two goals in just minutes. I visit the forum daily. My new handle will be behrang to make it easier for those that want to get a hold of me on the board.

Give EA Sports Your Thoughts
I'm sure that you all must have tons of comments about FIFA 2000 for EA Sports, don't you? Well, now you can give your thoughts about the game directly to them at the email address of . As a matter of fact, they have even posted some Questions and Answers that FIFA fans like us have sent to them. Here are some excerpts from their official site for FIFA 2000:
I just wondered how you guys could pick Julie Foudy and Phil Schoen as the commentators of this game. Yeah you guys are trying to make soccer more of an American sport for younger kids to get into. But the comments just suck, I would have prefered an English commentator, or someone who actually watched alot of soccer.
EA RESPONDS: IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT PHIL AND JULIE NOT ONLY WATCH A LOT OF SOCCER, THEY HAVE BEEN AROUND THE GAME FOR MOST OF THEIR LIVES. STAY TUNED TO SEE IF FIFA 2001 GOES BACK TO AN ENGLISH VOICE...
Hi! My name is Wesley and I like FIFA 2000 very much but only one thing I always have a problem with. The game doesn't support TCP/IP multiplayer. And it's always cool to play over the internet. Please let TCP/IP in FIFA 2001.
EA RESPONDS: WE'RE DEFINITELY LOOKING INTO INTERNET MULTIPLAYER FOR 2001!
Oh, and I thought you all will be interested to know that Ric has also posted some more of this questions and answers along with tons of great news about other soccer sims over at our headquarter, Soccer Gaming.
EA Sports have also posted replies to many more popular questions such as about what happened to all of the Portuguese teams and of course, the hottest topic around, the gameplay (they have even say that they might increase the field's size in order to achieve one of their main goals).

A: Well it's going to have the following:
" Home and away jerseys for all the Greek Premiership and Champions League teams.
" Name brand shorts for each team.
" New referee jerseys, ball and Greek ad boards.
" Full name roster updates for all the teams not only Greek.
" Full names of all teams, for example Ionikos Nikeas instead of just Ionikos.
" New menu backgrounds that will be Greek-oriented.
Q: How about the release date?
A: Well that depends on a lot of things. George, the webmaster of Greek Tournaments and I (Kostas) can only do this at some rate. We need all your help, and everyone is welcome to give a hand. So if you think you can help out with one of the above we would love it, so contact either or and we'll get things done faster and you will be given full credit as a team member.

It's Only Us Video!
Ups, sorry folks, I forgot to post this yesterday because I'm very tired back then. Okay then, to make it up, here it goes now:
Yesterday, thanks to MTV Fresh, one of MTV Asia shows, I saw the official anthem of FIFA 2000, "It's Only Us" by Robbie Williams, making its first dayview on video land. And it's true guys, this cool video features some FIFA 2000 moves and action in it. It even uses the Cyber-Rob character in it! =)
Oh, and just for some quick information, you can find the song either in his latest album called "The Ego Has Landed" or in the new FIFA 2000 Music Album (which is only available in Europe continent).
Now, I'm quite sure that many of you have watched the cool video too, but for those who haven't, you're lucky, mates! I have found a video clip that shows part of the "It's Only Us" video. But I have to tell you something, guys... the bad side about this clip is that it doesn't include any FIFA 2000 actions in this scene. But still, it is a good video to watch. Go and check it out now by clicking here! =)

Patch Of The Day Almost Here!
Chris Davies, the main man behind Patch of the Day (formerly known as E.S.P. 2000) has kindly asked us to let you all know the Patch of the Day, is going to be really huge with all new menus, new 64 colors G-unlimited jerseys, new 100% accurate Mitre Premiership\Nationwide League ball, new classic English teams, new Nationwide League Division One and eight teams from Division Two (later on a patch will be released with MORE), new turfs, new stadiums, and with Tal Bereznitskey helping, they’ll get up to 64 kits working at the same time instead of 50, edit .DBI files so league names and the like can and WILL be updated, and much, much more. Oh yeah, new flags, new menu text, new logos, new misc., graphics everywhere, etc.
There is a topic in the FIFA 2000 Forum which Chris REALLY NEEDS people to reply to, stating which teams in the English league in past years are really classic teams deserving to go into the patch, and why, including the team name and a team sheet of players for that classic team. Chris would like 20 at least (but might keep England 1966), all different teams, none the same (e.g. Man. U. 88 and Liverpool 88 is okay, but Liverpool 88 and Liverpool 91 are both the same team, and so only the best team out of the two different years would go in). You can get to the forum topic by clicking here.
Yeah folks! Looks like it's really coming home, the Patch of the Day, following the success of its predecessor, the original E.S.P. (back in 99). It's back, bigger and better than ever! Stay tuned for latest updates, guys!

FIFAXmas Patch Update
My buddy, Chris, the leader of the FIFAXmas patch has told me that he and the rest of his new staff has published some early screen shots of the patch as well as a sample music file that should be featured at the patch over at their site. Now, I think this is a good chance to preview the final release of it, so I suggest that you give it a look now.
He has also told me that he is still looking for a few more people who can help them in designing the patch. Please write him at to state your interest.
And I think you all will be very glad to know that this patch will feature accurate 64 colours kits for all the teams in Champions League.

FIFA 2000 Sites
I have just got email from Robin Wallman, who has kindly asked me to remind you all about his FIFA 2000 site over at http://fly.to/man-united. For all of you Swedish guys, it's sure worthy to give it a visit for localized contents about FIFA 2000.
Daniel Lopez has also notify me that he has opened up a new FIFA 2000 site called FIFA 2000 Venezuela. Don't forget to check it out when you have the time.
Oh, and Melvir has told me that he still need some help with his upcoming site. He need someone who knows HTML well, and know how to maintain a downloads section. Email him at if you think you can offer him some assistance.

Greek Patch
Kostas Kyriopoulos has just informed me that he and the rest of the team from Greek Tournaments are currently in the making of a Greek Patch, and he has already completed half of the kits and the shorts, which you can download separately from the Greek Tournaments. He has also told me that he is expecting this patch to be completed in about a month. Here are some screen shots he sent me along:
Noticed something different? Yup, that's right... the shorts! As you can see on the screen shots above, the unique thing about this patch is that they have packed accurate shorts in it (such as OFI's simple triple stripe Adidas short, AEK Athens' Kappa short, and even Aris Salonika's Puma short). Wow! Now that's something. =)
And remember to check out the Greek Tournaments site because some files may have been already published separately there. Oh, and for those of you who was wondering... yes, this is a Greek oriented site indeed, but it is in English, so you shouldn't find any difficulties browsing there.

New 64 Colours Kits
I have just received two more of that fantastic 64 colours kits from Nick Kojucharov. You can get the Manchester United kit by clicking here and the Barcelona kit by clicking here while waiting for either Lior or Kristoffer to upload them to our downloads section. You can see both of them in action, as well as a preview of the upcoming kit in the 64 colours kits series by Nick, the AC Milan 2000 "Scuddet
The first screenshot for the Itaian Milenium Update was released today. Er Cigo has worked on the jerseys you can see on the screenshot and Loren Grixti will release his G3 kits for the 1.0 version. The Beta version is due out
Along with all of the decent news bite, he has also sent me some fabulous screen shots that shows us some of the great features that will be included in this patch. You should see one of them in the right of this text, and the rest below. The one on the right even shows us that most of the environment have been edited neatly. Here's another list that tells you what's hot in this shot:
Alright! Chau Le has gave us another Christmas gift, folks! =D This time he has left a message back in our FIFA 2000 Forum, and attached with it is a new screen shot of the FEd2000. It shows the team page, and in the screen shot you should notice a big improvement from the previous FEd; that we will be able to edit Team Management data such as formation and strategy (attacking and defending style, passing preference, etc.). Woohoo! Thanks, Chau! =D
Aha! My eyes have just spotted a new mail in my mailbox from the man who have created a series of magnificent 64 colours kit, Nick Kojucharov. I opened it, read whole parts of it, and there it is... in the attachment box; I've found out that my good buddy has attached a preview shot of the upcoming Borussia Dortmund kit within the mail itself, along with a warm and friendly "happy holidays" and a "welcome back" messages. Thanks for the kind greetings and the screen shot, mate! Oh, and a happy holidays to you as well... =D
Download Nick's latest 64 Colour Kit (PSV Eindhoven Home Jersey) by clicking here. You can see a screen shot of the kit to the right of this text.
Here is a screenshot of the new up and coming Fedinator2000 data editor that will be out soon. Eric Dysinger, the maker of this editor, hopes it to be out in the near days to come.
Woohoo! Yup, that's right, folks, it's that downloading time again! This time we have just received Nick's latest kit in his 64 colours kits line-ups, and it is the new Bayern Munich kit. You can download it simply by clicking here. He has also sent me a screen shot that could tell us how it would look like in the game. Sure looks great. =)
Okay folks, this time my mate Chris, the leader of the FIFAXMAS project has been kind enough to let me know the latest progress on the patch. He has told me that they have been working hard and they are in the verge of completing this patch. Now read this carefully guys... the most important thing he has told me is the official release date of the FIFAXMAS project itself, and it will be at: Sunday, December 19th 1999.
Nick Kojucharov has been kind enough to sent me this preview of his latest 64 colours kit, the Arsenal kit. At the first place, Nick has licensed this kit to the UK2K project, so we couldn't post the kit itself here until the patch is released. =( But this project has just been cancelled by its leader, Asaf Karass, who has recently joined the Patch of the Day team. So, I guess that we can (and WILL) post the kit here, afterall! =) Stay tuned for this great kit to be posted here in a very near future!
Yesterday, thanks to MTV Fresh, one of MTV Asia shows, I saw the official anthem of FIFA 2000, "It's Only Us" by Robbie Williams, making its first dayview on video land. And it's true guys, this cool video features some FIFA 2000 moves and action in it. It even uses the Cyber-Rob character in it! =)
Oh, and just for some quick information, you can find the song either in his latest album called "The Ego Has Landed" or in the new FIFA 2000 Music Album (which is only available in Europe continent).
Chris Davies, the main man behind Patch of the Day (formerly known as E.S.P. 2000) has kindly asked us to let you all know the Patch of the Day, is going to be really huge with all new menus, new 64 colors G-unlimited jerseys, new 100% accurate Mitre Premiership\Nationwide League ball, new classic English teams, new Nationwide League Division One and eight teams from Division Two (later on a patch will be released with MORE), new turfs, new stadiums, and with Tal Bereznitskey helping, they’ll get up to 64 kits working at the same time instead of 50, edit .DBI files so league names and the like can and WILL be updated, and much, much more. Oh yeah, new flags, new menu text, new logos, new misc., graphics everywhere, etc.
There is a topic in the FIFA 2000 Forum which Chris REALLY NEEDS people to reply to, stating which teams in the English league in past years are really classic teams deserving to go into the patch, and why, including the team name and a team sheet of players for that classic team. Chris would like 20 at least (but might keep England 1966), all different teams, none the same (e.g. Man. U. 88 and Liverpool 88 is okay, but Liverpool 88 and Liverpool 91 are both the same team, and so only the best team out of the two different years would go in). You can get to the forum topic by clicking here.
Yeah folks! Looks like it's really coming home, the Patch of the Day, following the success of its predecessor, the original E.S.P. (back in 99). It's back, bigger and better than ever! Stay tuned for latest updates, guys!
Xavier Báez from FIFALA has sent me one of the menu that will be available in the FIFA Latin America 2000 patch, which will replace the original ones. These menus will be designed by Xavier Báez himself, and assisted by Diego Jaramillo and Ariel Schafer.
