Free CC Scout account required. No paid membership needed.

Saves as 20-real-names.tsv for the recommended patch order.

New careers only. Existing saves keep their original database and player names.

Get set up in four steps

  1. Download the names file

    Log in or create a free CC Scout account, then use the download button. Keep the file as 20-real-names.tsv. No need to open or convert it.

  2. Put it in the game’s patches folder

    Copy the TSV file into the folder for your system. If the patches folder is missing, create it at the location below.

    Windows · File Explorer address bar

    %APPDATA%\com.lslventures.cricketteammanager\patches\

    Mac · Finder → Go → Go to Folder

    ~/Library/Application Support/com.lslventures.cricketteammanager/patches/

    Keep your own 99-my-edits.tsv file. The numbered names patch loads before it, so your personal edits can still take priority.

  3. Fully quit and restart the game

    Patches load when the game starts. If it is open, quit completely and relaunch. On Mac, closing the window alone does not quit the app.

  4. Start a new career

    Create a new career and check the player names. The patch will not change a career you have already started.

Read the official editor guide (opens in a new tab)

Names still unchanged?

Check that the file ends in .tsv, is inside the patches folder, and that you fully restarted before creating a new career. Your own editor changes can override the names patch. The official guide (opens in a new tab) covers patch conflicts and troubleshooting.
