When you start a new game, is it asking you which database to use?

If not, Read Here (database installation is at the bottom of the first post).

God i knew it! i've search everywhere in the game for that database selection... and never find it... tought it was my imagination at last but now after i've read the post tell me if i'm right. I'm running the 3.0.4 patch. If i want to change something before a new game i sould save it as a custom database and put this database in the database folder wich will give me the choice of two database once i start a new game. is it right?

Bit delayed but still heres my thoughts..

Using the editor, dont you have to click 'confirm' each time you do something, for it to then save.. So example you pick Phillips Arena on the editor, and change it to P-Arena, then you click 'confirm' at the bottom before you do anything else, a box pops up saying 'record updated' and then it should be fine

And after seeing 'record updated' you have to save the files. After saving them, close the editor. There have been times when I've continued to edit after saving but then things get lost
