"Place on Transfer List" is greyed for two reasons. This crate already fixes one
(owned copies emit `untradeable: false`). The other is `tradingEnabled`: the
client's struct defaults it to 0 — it is not a flag we have been overwriting, it
is a flag nobody has ever sent — and it gates the service half of the
TO_TRADE_PILE predicate (vtable slot +0x270, gate byte 0x1fd2e, measured 0 live).
`GET /settings` has always answered `{"configs": []}`.
The schema is high-confidence: FutGetSettingsServerResponse (deser 0x18013c6d0,
read end to end) has a single `configs` key holding `{type, value}` rows, and the
key ladder holds nothing else. `type` is the setting NAME. The row set is ported
from the shape the Python oracle would emit rather than invented.
Default OFF (`OPENFUT_FIFA17_COMMERCE_SETTINGS=1` opts in), because the flags are
RECOVERED BUT UNTESTED and the empty list is the live-proven body — the house
rule is that a flag defaults to the live-proven value. This also moves the
capability out of the oracle we are retiring and into Rust, where it can actually
be reached once Python is gone.
Verified against a real host on both settings: OFF returns {"configs":[]}
byte-identical to today, ON returns the 8-row body with tradingEnabled. It
explains why the menu entry is greyed; it does not promise the market works.
OpenFUT
⚠️ Status — see
docs/PROJECT_STATE.md(canonical). The working, actively-developed target is FIFA 17, not FIFA 23. Everything below this banner describes the superseded FIFA 23bridgelineage and is kept for historical context.Run the server (canonical):
cd fifa17-recon/docker/fifa17-python && docker compose up -d— seefifa17-recon/FUT-RUNBOOK.md.openfut-coreis the shared offline backend (still used by the FIFA 17 path);openfut-bridgeis the retired FIFA 23 integration.
Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.
OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.

SQLite database
Core is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.
Bridge is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

Core listens on http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default.
Bridge listens on http://127.0.0.1:8443 by default.
Design Principles
- Offline-first. No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
- Single-player only. This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
- Data-driven. All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
- Clean architecture. Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
- No copyrighted assets. No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.
