Do you plan on adding pictures of the new young players?
RT7
I already have many images of players ready for when the new players who do not have an ID yet are added to the game.
Klusek997
Many young Polish players still do not have photos, including Ciućka, Basse, and others. Players from big clubs who still need photos include Diego Leon, Enzo Kana-Biyik, and Chido Obi-Martin.
RT7
These players aren't yet officially in the game. When they are, they'll have their own ID, and the corresponding images will appear automatically.
Klusek997
But they're in your update, which is why I'm asking if you'll be adding faces to them as well.
RT7
Being in an update doesn't mean they're officially in the game. Only when they have an official ID are they in the game, and you can add an image. You can see which players are in the game here in the link. In this case, Man Utd.

We still don't understand. The Live Football Manager Data Update adds new players, but they don't have faces. They have their ID in the game. That's why I'm asking if these players will have faces in addition to being added.
RT7
As long as you don't find the players you're looking for in the link I sent you, they're not officially in the game and therefore don't have an official ID number. Therefore, you can't add faces.
Klusek997
You can add faces and other features. For example, Sir TAVARES creates his own players and adds faces.
RT7
Or you just listened to what I said. An update that adds new players doesn't include official ID numbers. You can manually add them yourself each update. The numbers will then constantly change, making your facepack inaccurate. Or just wait until the players are officially added. You can see that on the link I sent you. If you don't want that, I wish you the best of luck.

Just to provide a more official stance: the plan is to arrange the creation of a facepack for the newly-created players. This has not been done yet - given the volume, it’s likely we will want to integrate this to make it a community-driven effort.
This requires some web front-end work and overall integration work.
However, the groundwork has been done to ensure the UIDs of players within the Data Update are static and don’t change between updates. As with any custom/extra files, if combined with other databases that also add new people, the UIDs can’t be guaranteed. This is what RT7 is referring to when they mention the UIDs not being ‘official’.
I can’t provide a timeline because I am not the web developer of this site. But it’s on the to-do list. In the last month or two, the ongoing priority has been to get leagues/nations updated for 2025/26, alongside ongoing responsibilities around moderating submissions (which get busy once the transfer window opens).
Of course, in the interim, people can make their own facepacks for their local use, if they wish.
