fifa-ng-db-meta.xml file is a metadata descriptor used in the EA Sports FIFA (now EA Sports FC) engine to define the structure of the game's main database ( fifa_ng_db.db fifa-ng-db-meta.xml

Which are you looking at (e.g., FIFA 23, FC 24, FC 25)? # Get player data player_id = 12345 player_data = root

A modded FIFA 23 installation was used. We altered the players table’s potential field from int(3) to int(4) via the meta file, rebuilt the database using a custom tool, and tested in-game stability. fifa-ng-db-meta.xml

Modders could find and enable disabled player traits or legacy stats that EA left in the code but took out of the user interface.
