I have made some old legends in the editor which I implemented in my game. After playing with them for a month or so with no problems, they all of a sudden all (the players made by me) have pictures of random (also old legends it seems) players on their profiles.
Can anyone tell me why this has happened? And perhaps how to remove it without deleting all my own work.
Many thanks in advance

This isn't really related to the update itself but rather to the way the game deals with new editor data.
Basically, UIDs of newly created persons aren't fixed and if you combine different editor data files (such as this download and your file), then the UID which worked when running just one editor data file will most probably not be the same.

So there is no way to fix it? I was only using my own database btw. I have downloaded an unofficial patch with a lot of Legends, But I was not using it in this save.

Change the config file UIDs to the new ones, not sure if you know how to...

I appreciate the help a lot, but I have no idea how to do that.

You could follow the steps outlined in the second part of this thread, but tbh if you're not really sure what you're doing, I'm not sure I'd advise you to do so.
Are you able to locate the folder in which the "legend" images are found in? If you were able to rename each filename to the respective person's UID in your save game, and send it to me, I'd be more than happy to create the config file for you

That is very nice of you, but to be honest my computer skills are are very limited. I tried to open and INC-file (doing what the first post in this thread says), but I have no idea which programme to use to open this INC file.
So what you are telling me are difficult to understand for me. What is UID? and yes I can find the folder with the pics, but I have no idea how to rename each filename to the respective person's UID in your save game. We are also talking about around 400 players, so it will be a lot of work to change them all. Wouldnt it be possible to remove the pictures? Will they be removed if I delete the addon which holds the pictures?

Hmm, in this case it's probably for the best if you remove the whole folder.
Just make sure that, once you do, the preferences in-game look like this:
Sorry I couldn't be of more help

What happens if it doesnt look like that? And no worries! Pictures arent important.

I'm not sure, but you may run the risk of an empty space instead of the correct picture...
