SP Football Life 2023 (2024)

SP Football Life is experimental to reflect how we like to play a football game, it is made with the same standards as previous smokepatch contents and is built according to our guidelines to the best of our knowledge, users can read the description before deciding to use football life as everybody have their own taste and preference.

see database reference

Addons

addons are optional features that can be downloaded and added separately, most addons are kept optional due to the large file size.

available add-ons can be accessed from the website add-ons menu above, do not add anything unless it is made specifically for football life 2023, every addon has a compatibility note.

football life will have its own compatible content, so all add-ons for older smokepatch content will not work, adding mods from other sources can work but at the user's own risk so be sure to make backups.

Sider

football life includes a modified sider, sider is a tool made by jucethat allows for more features and allows customization by the community.

Gameplay

football life gameplay is modified and different, but it is also possible to use the standard PES21 gameplay by using (FL23 switcher.exe) which is located in the game folder, switch and restore by running this tool again.

the hardest difficulty (Legend) will unlock after winning 5 games in the Superstardifficulty.

it can be forced in the sider settings but it is recommended to unlock after trying and winning in the superstar difficulty.

Football life can work with any dt18_all gameplay mod that works on pes21

Real Faces

real player facesare not includedby default due to the large file size, faces from pes21 are compatible and work on football life.

The faces in football life are game-built to approximate the player's characteristics, the real faces of players are available as an option because the file size of the faces is too big, go to the real faces addon

users who prefer to use their own face pack can add using sider or by replacing the extra empty cpk files included in the download folder of the game, players ID can be found here

master league managers (+100) have their faces included by default.

Game Commentary

A new English commentary version is included in football life, other commentaries are available as an optional add-on. all the commentaries are updated to the newest 2023 version.

Teams kits

all teams in football life have real kits, around 300 teams have updated kits for the new season, others have previous season kits, and more updated kits come in updates same as in previous smokepatch releases.

Boots

100 players' boots included, most of the boots are of recent designs, assigned randomly to all the players in the football life database.

Balls

we have moved the balls to sider, which allows for a bigger number of available balls, also by doing that balls will load automatically in the game depending on the tournament, selecting the match ball can be done in the sider console (space bar), see sider functionshere

Stadiums

SP Football Life comes with 29 real model stadiums, and 17 fake stadium models assigned to the teams, stadium model size is big, so we kept our selection in the base game to the minimum.

adding all the available stadiums can use over 100 gigabytes of the available disk capacity, users can decide to add more stadiums from our stadium's addons (in progress), but be aware of the size needed, and keep in mind that you might not play in most of them, example if you add all Italian stadiums and you play in a team in brazil, you might never see any of them in the game career, some users prefer the coach mode, which doesn't require any more stadiums.

a modified sider is included in football life by default, and more stadiums can be downloaded and added to the stadium server, see stadium addon here

select home ground as stadium, the sider will load the assigned stadium to the match, for manual selection see sider functionshere

Antivirus false positive:

all the files on the smokepatch website are safe and free from viruses or malware, we use BAT scripts to install and run the game, antivirus programs mark all BAT-based files as dangerous, and we cannot afford to buy a digital certificate, as the price for that is insane, do not let the antivirus delete or block the installation, don't do this unless you trust the source.
