Replace your FM26 manager's generated portrait with your own.
As this runs via BepInEx, only Windows is supported. This may work via Crossover on macOS but this is not tested.
Downloads
ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL.zip
Includes ManagerPortrait + BepInEx setup.
Use this if you do not already have BepInEx installed.
ManagerPortrait-1.0_PLUGIN-ONLY.zip
Includes ManagerPortrait only.
Use this if you already use BepInEx (for example via Stadiums, Scoreboards, etc.).
Installation
Put the files in your Football Manager installation folder, next to fm.exe (not your Documents user data - graphics, games, tactics etc.)
Typical Windows paths (your drive letter may differ):
Steam: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26
Epic: C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\FootballManager26
Game Pass: C:\XboxGames\Football Manager 26
If the folder does not contain fm.exe, you are in the wrong place.
FULL
Download ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL.zip
Extract into your game folder
Launch the game once to confirm plugin load
PLUGIN-ONLY
Make sure BepInEx is already installed and working
Download ManagerPortrait-1.0_PLUGIN-ONLY.zip
Extract plugin files into your existing BepInEx setup, into your /Plugins folder.
Launch the game
Using ManagerPortrait
Put PNGs here:BepInEx\plugins\ManagerPortrait\managers\
Recommended image size: 256x256 PNG.
Use these filenames:
manager.png = fallback portrait for anyone without a specific file<id>.png (example: 2002072965.png, -572685185.png) = portrait for that exact manager ID
How it works:
Plugin looks for <id>.png
If not found, it uses manager.png
Find manager IDs in BepInEx logs or in-game with the “Show screen IDs in Title Bar to assist skinning” option checked (Preferences → Audio & Visual).
Note: IDs can differ between the Manager Profiles screen and in-save, so you may need two ID files for the same manager.

To what issue specifically?
I would suggest just removing BepInEx and the plugins and re-install.

I'm using Crossover on Mac OS. I've followed the instructions multiple times, but for some reason it's not working. I copied all the files from the ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL.zip archive and pasted them into the game folder as instructed. I launched the game, exited, then launched it again, and nothing changed—manager.png still doesn't load in my profile. I tried uploading a different image with my ID taken from the game, but that didn't work either. Maybe I'm missing something? Please let me know!
tiddy666
Hey, any reason why i cant get it to work?

Matt
Move the contents of ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL into your FM26 folder.
tiddy666
right…. so ive narrowed it down. re un-installed and re- installed my fm.exe file is missing???? Any ideas?
Matt
It's in your screenshot.
Again… move the contents of ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL into that folder.
tiddy666
am i being blind? i cant see the fm.exe file what folder am i moving contents of ManagerPortrait-1.0_FULL into?
