SP Football Life 2026 V1.2 Essentials Mod Pack + Recommended AddOns

SPFL26 1.2 Essentials Mod Pack + Recommended AddOns is a collection of mods for SPFL 26, curated and repacked by "jusseppe" to make an easy drag-and-drop install on a clean version of SPFL26 1.2. 

The idea is to have a base reference mod pack with the main lua modules and livecpk content that can then be updated with smaller updates as soon as creators make them available.

List of Included Mods
  • badge-server -> Competition-specific badges on team kits, integrated with the latest badges; made by Hawke.
  • ballboys_server -> Adds ballboys that stay on the side of stadiums; made by Hawke.
  • ball-server -> Adds tons of balls selected from Hawke's Ballpacks. I removed the winter ones due to visibility issues on the green pitch. If you want all the balls, simply download the latest AIO from his thread and replace the content\ball-server folder, made by zlac.
  • bibserver -> Adds bibs to substitute players; made by Hawke.
  • custom-exhibition-match -> allows to simulate any competition-specific match in exhibition mode; made by mochnaufals.
  • Entrance Server -> adds choreography specific to a competition before starting a match, integrated with the latest competitions; made by Balkan PES BOX & FuNZoTiK & milos987.

  • scoreboard-server -> Adds competition-specific scoreboards, integrated with all the latest competitions; made by zlac.
  • SleeveBadge-ArmbandServer -> Adds tournament-specific badges to the kits; made by Hawke and updated by DN7 Kits.
  • soundtrack-server -> Adds custom songs to in-game menu and other moments during matches (e.g, half time, replays); made by predator002 -> You can replace the tracks as you please. If you prefer to have other songs, you can download other packs or disable the module from sider.ini and use in-game music. IMPORTANT: Remember to turn off all songs from the menu, or they will play along with the songs of the soundtrack server.
  • Stadium_Banner -> adds banners in stadiums to enhance immersion, integrated with all the latest competitions; made by Balkan PES BOX & FuNZoTiK.

  • Mini Faces -> a collection of high-quality mini faces that gradually should increase in numbers, covering the many players possible; made by nam2
  • NoBallX -> removes the x on the ground indicating where the ball will land; made by ???
  • NT Flags_badges -> Replaces National Team Flags only with Flags and badges, I edited it to correctly cover ALL National Teams; made by Tiozinho.

Vibrant Shaders
If you want to emphasize colors, by making them more vivid, the turf greener and in general more vibrant, you can use this shader preset that I repacked to make it work with FL26.
Here is a comparison of before and after.

You can get it ⏬here⏬.

Installation:
1 - extract in your main game dir (e.g., C:\Games\SPFL26), no need to install reshade.
2 - Launch the game and enjoy!

INFO: Press Home key to open the reshade menu and End key to toggle between shaders on and off you can experiment with the individual filters to get it more to your liking; the effects are immediate. I test it when the match starts on kick off, so the game stays still, but I can see the changes immediately.

    1. You just need to add them to the stadium maps again after installing this add-on.

  5. I feel like the "stadium_server" folder messed up the stadium selection, as when I checked the PES Stadium Manager application, the root seems to be set to that instead of the original "stadiums" folder that came with my original FL26 installation. Asking, are the "stadium_server" and "stadiums" folders supposed to be the same thing, or do they have different functions?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. They serve the same function, but if you had other stadiums installed before this mod, some mix-ups might have occurred after replacing the stadium map. This happens because the stadium map in this mod uses a different structure. Just make sure all your stadiums are properly listed in the stadium map.

    2. Cool, what I've done is that I've switched over my original stadiums from "stadium" into "stadium_server", and added in the txt file data from the original into the new one in the stadium_server folder. That managed to fix the problem, although there's another new problem that popped up with this mod..

      Delete
  6. New problem- inaccuracy issues with the continental competitions:

    1. Playing Copa Libertadores matches somehow gives the new AFC Champions League banners (in the centre of the field) during the opening of the match; when previously it should have the smokes and Libertadores theme song at the start. Libertadores scoreboard works fine.
    2. Playing AFC Champions League matches gives CONCACAF Champions League scoreboard and graphics, and the old AFC Champions League banners/graphics played at the opening still persists.

    UEFA Champions League graphics, scoreboard and opening works fine. Have not tried for other competitions yet, but I'm afraid there might be a mismatch somewhere with the opening. Pretty sure I did not turn on any sider.exe overrides.

    Something for the author to take note, but is there any way I can fix this myself?

    Note that I've downloaded this mod after I've installed 1.2 update, but also installed the realistic gameplay mod as well here (https://www.pesmodding.com/2025/11/pes-2021-fl-2026-raw-football-gameplay.html), dunno if this switched anything.

    1. That’s strange — I just tested it on my side and everything seems to work fine. It’s a bit tricky to figure out what’s causing the issue since I don’t know what’s on your setup, but here’s what I’d suggest (this usually helps me find the problem):

      Start by checking the maps. For example, if you’re getting a scoreboard error or the wrong competition scoreboard shows up, make sure the competition IDs in your Scoreboards Server folder match correctly.

      You can also try disabling any extra mods you added after installing this patch — conflicts between mods are often the main cause of these kinds of problems.

      Try that and see if it helps!

    2. Do you know which folder stores the competition entrance banners and assets?

      Also, found the scoreboard assets, seems that CONCACAF assets were mapped in under AFC Champions League as below in map-competition.txt. I've already added the hashtags to block the CONCACAF assets (which isn't even in the FL26 game). Hopefully you can edit them in your Essentials modpack:
