all good, thank you for your help. For some reason the ID number for each creation I made had changed on the game so just changed that and reloaded. All working now. 

 

Thanks again

Can you take an in-game screenshot of the person in question, as well as upload the cut-out and its config here?

 

Thank you. It is a file I have added of a few players and some staff, has worked in previous FM versions - changing ID's and configs etc. 

 

I have tried adding the Cardiff file in folder of faces, folder of sortitoutsi, folder of faces within sortitoutsi and also put them in the facepack and reconfigured all images but still nothing works. 

 

I have added the screenshots you requested.

Adding images to the megapack
N.B. Any teampacks and individual images are included in each update pack; this is for the impatient who want cuts to be included in their MP folder before then.

1. Save the image(s) to a temporary folder (e.g. Desktop or a folder in there)

2. Copy the image(s) into;

- My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 201x/graphics/your MP folder 

Overwrite only if you are absolutely sure as the previous image will then be lost!

3. Use fmXML (or a similar program) to rebuild the config.xml file to reflect the new changes.

4. Load up FM, to confirm that the new cut/s has/have appeared.





Getting an Individual picture to appear in game:

1) Save your chosen picture as the correct ID into the following folder:
My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 201x/graphics/anywhere apart from your MP folder
(You may need to create the last 3 folders)

2) Next you need to create a config file, (the file that links the game to the image) and put it in the folder "Individual" with your picture. 
You can download fmXML (Instruction Video) which will do it automatically for you. Save it.

3) Go back to your game prefs and untick "Show unique IDs" click confirm and hey presto your picture should be there.


Any questions, please feel free to ask. 

 

Ok, so I have followed this rule numerous times, and over the years I have religiously done it and has always worked. However for some reason it will not work for me on FM23. I have tried adding to the megapack and have made a new config. I have also tried doing it with a new file added to graphics with its own config. Always clearing cache and reloading skin from preferences. using caching is unticked. I just don't know what to do. Please help
