Installation Instructions
1. How do I install the cut-out megapack if I’m using Steam on Windows?
Watch this YouTube tutorial video, which should you guide you on the steps you need to follow to install it. Although it is for an older version of FM, the steps are still the same. You need to use Winrar (or a similar program) to extract the downloaded file.
This is what the MP folder should look like for the respective version of FM you're using:
Anything beyond the blue line is up to you and how you want to structure your folders.
The preferences should look like in the below screenshot:
To get them to look like this, navigate to your preferences on the welcome screen or by using the drop-down menu near the top right of the menu within your save game.
Choose the advanced tab (the blue square within the screenshot above) and select all from the drop-down menu on the right (the red square within the screenshot above).
Scroll down to the interface section near the middle of the list, where you are to make sure that:
• the “Use caching to decrease page loading times” box is unticked
• the “Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences” box is ticked
After clicking confirm, it may take a few seconds or minutes for all the graphics to be loaded and you should now see all the graphics you have downloaded appear in your save game.
Once your skin is reloaded, you can re-tick the "Use Caching to Decrease Page Loading Time" button so that the splash screen at the start takes a lot less longer to load. However, the above process needs to be undertaken every time you add graphics to your game to ensure that the game "reads" them.
2. How do I install the cut-out megapack if I’m using a Mac OS?
From FM20 onwards, there's been a substantial change to how Mac FM documents are stored. Previously the files would automatically go in the Documents folder here:
Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 202x
Now the files will instead appear in the following location:
Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 202x
By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:
Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ -> ‘Football Manager 202x -> graphics’ (create the last folder if necessary
Anything beyond this path line is up to you and how you want to structure your folders.
The preferences should look like in the below screenshot:
To get them to look like this, navigate to your preferences on the welcome screen or by using the drop-down menu near the top right of the menu within your save game.
Choose the advanced tab (the blue square within the screenshot above) and select all from the drop-down menu on the right (the red square within the screenshot above).
Scroll down to the interface section near the middle of the list, where you are to make sure that:
• the “Use caching to decrease page loading times” box is unticked
• the “Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences” box is ticked

Once your skin is reloaded, you can re-tick the "Use Caching to Decrease Page Loading Time" button so that the splash screen at the start takes a lot less longer to load. However, the above process needs to be undertaken every time you add graphics to your game to ensure that the game "reads" them.
3. I don’t want to have the megapack in the default user data folder – can I place it elsewhere and how would I do so?
You need to change your user data location. Simple steps on how to do so can be found here.
The above step does not apply if you’re playing on Gamepass, in which case the user data location has to be the default one (i.e. Documents / Sports Interactive / Football Manager 202x)
It is recommended that the user data location is not placed within the Steam installation folder as this may cause issues.
4. How do I install the cut-out megapack if I’m using Gamepass?
If you're using Gamepass, then you have to use the default user data folder - point 4 above does not and can not apply to you.

Torrent files need a torrent client to be downloaded. I personally use µTorrent but other common clients are BitTorrent, Vuze and Deluge. For those using torrents for the first time, here is a general walk-through on how to download torrents and a specific guide for µTorrent.
Be aware that it will take a substantial amount of time to download the file due to its sheer size and that other people depend on you hosting the file to get it so please leave your torrent client on after you have fully downloaded it. The etiquette is generally accepted to be to upload as much as you download, although this might not always be possible. The older the torrent file, the less likely it is that there will still be users seeding it.
If done correctly, you should be asked if you want to overwrite files – accept. You should have one folder for faces and another folder for iconfaces, and no sub-folder whatsoever in them.
These steps are to be repeated for every update pack downloaded, and they are to be installed chronologically.
Secondly, for files as large as this, the calculation of the extraction time will be wildly incorrect at the start. After a while, it'll show a more realistic timeframe, which shouldn't be more than an hour or two if you have a good setup and few programs running at the same time.
Try using Google Chrome in incognito mode (or the equivalent mode for other browsers) and you should be able to resume the download from the point it was interrupted, if that happens.
The likelihood is that you've put the iconfaces in the faces folder, or used the wrong config file for each folder. As a result, the smaller images (in 25x18) are being upscaled to be displayed in the person's profile, hence the blurring. Re-install the update pack again, making sure you put the contents of each folder in the right place.
Alternatively, you can download fmXML and generate a config yourself. There's a video on YouTube on how to use it but it's really easy and the instructions are quite straight-forward.
To get them to show, you should individually download the cut-out faces that you want from here (or use the UID to find them in your existing facepack if you don't use the cut-out megapack), put them in a separate folder to your existing facepack and create a config file just for them using the method outlined in here (which works for all facepack styles, not just the cut-out megapack).

Are your in-game preferences as per the screenshot in the opening post? How many images do you have in your faces folder? Can we have a screenshot of your folder structure please?
Christhebaggie85
may sound a noob here lol but downloaded the megapack how far would you suggest i go back in the mini updates so it feels up to date
was tempted to start from early 2020
or should i just download the latest update?
any help would be great cheers guys!!
mons
Since you're a premium member, if you just download the most recent complete pack, you'll have all the images in the megapack. All you'd need to do from that point on is to download the individual update packs released periodically.

Before the release of FM21, we hope. Can't be more specific than that yet, I'm afraid.

There's a number of reasons this could be happening. Have a look at this to see if helps at all: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000839.htm
Try downloading the file using Google Chrome, which allows interrupted download to be resumed from the point they were stopped.

I've been downloading the Cut-Out Faces Megapack files for the past weeks (yes, you read it right: "weeks". my connection is that good). Today, as i was about to continue my journey i noticed the files are not there anymore. Is there a specific reason for this? Will they be back up soon?
EDIT: This is regarding the FM20 Update Pack - 12.18
Thanks in advance
mons
What do you mean? They look fine to me here
The default tab is now FM21 since the 13.0 update pack for it was released earlier today, so you may have to manually change the tab to FM20.
JGama95
Thanks for the help, i'm just gonna download it completly via torrent, much easier and less stressfull.
mons
It would help if you provide screenshots of how the site is looking like for you, because it's not clear what you mean.
That said, it looks like you've got all the files needed for the 12.0 base pack. All you need to do now is to extract them all and install them in numerical order, starting from the multiple 12.0 base files (which should all ectract automatically if you start with part 1) and continuing to the various update packs (from 12.01 until 12.18), accepting all overwrite prompts. You just need to download the 13.0 update pack now to be fully up-to-date.
YME85
The 6.0 pack is at 0,9% (one start), the 8.0 pack is still at 0%.
Is there a possibility that more people (re-)share these torrents? Or anyone knows what's the availability of them?
Many thanks in advance and hope ya'll will be having fun with the new FM in the next couple of weeks!
YME85
Is it sufficient to download the 13.0 version, thus having ALL images?
Or do you need to download all versions, where 8.0 is an update of 7.0, 9.0 is an update of 8.0,... thus not having all images but ONLY updates per new version?

The "changes" file is 500mb the complete file is 18gb. If you click "Download Latest Changes" that should give you the right file.
Are you possibly getting confused by the new design? If you're struggling to find the right place to download please try and give detailed feedback and i'll try and improve it 🙂
Olivercho
When i click on download latest changes it takes me to the page where u have all the updates and when i click on version 13.00 theres 19 packs to download which I assume is the full pack. This is the page it redirects me to and i cant find the update pack thats 500mb https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/1/download
Same goes for the logos, it takes me to this screen https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/3/download cant find the update only file.
mons
Could you post a screenshot of this page you're referring to?
Bellamy86
Me too!
In this page https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/1/download if you click on DOWNLOAD (434.79 MB) at the 13.00 version, the link send at this page https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/download/change/361 where there are all 19 parts of singular pack for the 13.00 version but NOT only the update if you have 12.18 installed.
mons
PPTree
Yes, same here. I am up-to-date with 12.18 and only need the small update file, but keep being directed to the page with 19 parts of 13.00. Where can we find ONLY the update from 12.18 to 13.00?

Could you post a screenshot of what you're seeing in the download page? Working fine for me so it'd help me see what could be the matter

You can't download just the update pack, it has 19 parts which i assume is the full pack.
