do i just place them into graphics

Yes 👍 I've made a “backgrounds” folder inside my “graphics” folder just to keep things sorted. But that is not necessary for it to work properly 🙂

hello i've got a problem with the stadium screens on the loading screen.

I've updated the files yesterday and extracted them correctly into the right folger (graphics). After reloading the screens in game, the pictures of the stadiums are not shown anymore. As a solution i extracted them a second time but after this they are still not shown like you can see in the attachment.

 

Can someone help me please

 

Thank you.

The screenshot shows that you have done this wrong. Delete what you have and download the complete file of each pack (and only the complete file of each pack). The complete packs are always updated with the latest update and you don't need the update files. Then you will only have to apply any future updates. And when you do so they have to be merged in to the existing complete pack (not in there own folder), when done right you will be asked to overwrite a lot of files otherwise something has gone wrong.

Hello @Qvordrup firstly thanks for the great work! I am writing this message about an issue with French stadiums backgrounds. Last June, user pires120013 uploaded hundreds of background images at once of insides of French stadiums. Many stadiums already had inside images. While I understand and acknowledge that it is overall a great addition to the pack for stadiums that were missing images, numerous of his contributions were duplicates and/or replaced imaged of greater quality. Indeed, I had received 13 notifications that my contributions had been replaced. I see that @Humberto21 had already noticed the issue here.  Among those 13, I have noticed the following issues:

  • Stade du Viouzou : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 which is a close up of a flag post and in my opinion presents the stadium less well
  • Stade Albert Robin : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 and is just a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium
  • Stade Municipal De La Lande : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 but his image is the same as mine
  • Stade Pierre de Coubertin : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 but his image is the same as mine
  • Stade Serge Delhumeau : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 is of poor quality and presents the stadium less well
  • Stade de Morpiènas : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 and is just a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium
  • Stade du Malnoy n°1 : his image is a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium
  • Stade Roger Gardin : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 and is just a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium
  • Parc des Sports et de l’Amitié : this one hurts more as it is the stadium of the team I support 😀 I think my image presents the overall stadium in a better way
  • Stade Claude Bétard : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 and is of poor quality + badly cropped as has a white line of pixels at the bottom
  • Stade Albert Schweitzer : his image is a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium
  • Stade d’Aurus : my image was 1200x720 compared to his of 800x480 and is just a close up of the stands while my image presents the whole stadium + his image is not correct as it is not Stade d’Aurus but the Stade municipal de Saint-Paul-lès-Dax which is a rugby union stadium

If you would allow me, I would like to resubmit my contributions as I believe they are of greater quality. I had spent considerable amount of time to find the most appropriate and highest quality images and it is honestly a bit frustrating to see some of our contributions replaced by images of lower quality and sometimes incorrect. Please understand my motive is only accuracy and quality standards of this pack. Thank you for reading and for your consideration

Many thanks for your contributions. Sorry about this…. it was a mistake that all of the submissions from his pack was set as “active” without any quality control in terms of what was already in the pack. They were supposed to have been set as “pending”. Once it was done I did not have the time or energy to go through all 800.

No need to resubmit anything they just need to be set back as “active”. I've fix the issues reported here and you are welcome to write again if you stumble upon any others 👍

I had similar problem last year, what worked for me was basically deleting all folders in background folder and re-downloading whole megapack again. And of course, remember to have a right folder selected in game menu to load all these files.

 

Hi when you say having right folder selected when in the game what do you mean by that?

You can check in game options what folder game load files from. And compare it with the actual folder you have the files in.
