Pes 2013 Patch 3.6 Official
But something was wrong. The crowd chants were no longer generic. They were specific: “Dmytro… Dmytro…” The scoreboard font turned into a handwritten Cyrillic script. The ball became a grainy video texture—showing a 10-second loop of a young boy kicking a worn-out ball on a snowy Soviet-era pitch.
By the winter of 2014, the PES 2013 modding world was a ghost town. Konami had moved on to the Fox Engine failures of PES 2014. Most editors had abandoned ship for FIFA’s new Ignite engine. But in a dimly lit apartment in Kharkiv, Ukraine, a 29-year-old programmer named Dmytro “Kiev” Shevchenko refused to let it die.
For 18 months, he had been perfecting Patch 3.6 . On forums like PESEdit and PES-Patch.com , whispers grew. “Kiev is rebuilding the entire Championship.” “He’s added 40 new chants.” “He’s fixed the AI’s crossing bug.” But no one knew the truth: Patch 3.6 was more than a roster update.
“My father built this stadium’s first floodlights. He worked for Shakhtar. But in 1984, when I was born, they fired him. No reason. Just politics. He died last week. They are tearing down the stadium tomorrow. I can’t stop it. But I can put it in the game. Forever.” Pes 2013 patch 3.6
The video was raw, unsteady cellphone footage from 2008. A young Dmytro Shevchenko—then 23—stood outside a crumbling stadium in Donetsk. He spoke to the camera in Russian with English subtitles:
Two weeks later, a Brazilian player named “Ronaldo Fenômeno” (username: Fenomeno99 ) was testing the patch on a livestream with 40 viewers. He enabled the hidden cheat table. He changed boot ID 99 for his virtual pro.
A dataminer from Poland, Krzysztof_W , dissected the patch’s .bin files. Inside the “special” folder, he found a video file named “goodbye.sfd” (the old PES video format). He extracted it. But something was wrong
The video cut to a slow pan of the abandoned pitch. Snow. Rusted goalposts. A single floodlight still on. Then the text: “Patch 3.6 – For him.”
Fenomeno99 posted a clip. The forum exploded. Within 48 hours, thousands of users unlocked boot ID 99. And every single one played the same ghost match. Same pitch. Same score. Same message.
Suddenly, the game froze for three seconds. Then it resumed. The ball became a grainy video texture—showing a
A teenager in Buenos Aires downloads Patch 3.6 from a dead torrent. He doesn’t read the readme. He just installs it, boots up Master League, and picks Arsenal. Everything works perfectly. Updated kits. Real faces. He plays for hours. Never knowing that somewhere in the code, a floodlight still burns for a man who refused to let a stadium die.
Kiev never reappeared. His forum account went silent. His email bounced. Some say he moved to Canada. Others believe he died in the 2014 war in Eastern Ukraine. But his patch—Patch 3.6—lives on. Even today, on old hard drives and modding forums, you can download it. And if you know where to look—boot ID 99—you can still play that ghost.
