"Processes the results" is a pretty generic requirement. It all depends on what format you enter the information and in what format you want to see it.

- Does this have to be web-based?
- Do you mean European football or North American Football.
- Do a Google search for programs that check football stats or something similar.

well the game is web based but i could proccess the matches on my computer and upload the results i have searched google for hours and cannot find anything that does this but the football games i play online use these
games like:

http://www.itsagoal.com
http://www.soccermanager.com
http://www.onlinesoccermanager.com

the last link uses this engine (MiG Advanced Soccer Simulation Engine (MASSE®)

but i cannot find were to get this ive searched google and stuff for ages
and its for european football aka soccer

it needs to proccess the results based on what ratings and stuff the teams have IE like championship manager

What do you mean by 'process'? That might be why you're not coming up with any results - that's too broad of a verb.

If you keep finding nothing - I guess that means such a beast doesn't exist & you'll have to roll your own.

Oh, so you put in the stats of the players, and you want an engine that will take all that information, play out a virtual game, and output the results?

If you've already done the Google searching, then I guess there's nothing out there. Contact that one company and see if they're selling.

Yea already did a few times but they never reply, thanks for the help i will keep looking
theres a few games using different engines one of them might reply one day if not i will have to look into learning how to do one myself

if all fails i will just use a proper PC game like champmanager and just get the scores and upload them

thanks
