So, if I understand correctly, you've done the regen process successfully… Do you remember what you get at the end? 

 

The end product is a file named “config.xml”. This is the file that stores the information about the assignment of the players' photos. 

 

 

 

When you play in your Save Game A and create photos for regen, it generates a config.xml file. Say, later, when you start a new save game (let's call it “Save Game B”), you are to generate a different config.xml for this game. 

 

Suppose you understand this: These 2 save games are not going to share the same information, because each game has their own regen players… 

 

So, the question is: When you generate photos for regen players in Save Game B, did you back up the config.xml of Save Game A? If you overwrite or append the data of Save Game B to the config.xml of Save Game A, then you may have made a mess! 

 

It's like… floor plans of a building: Level 1 and 2 have their own floor plan. You go to Level 1, you bring the correct version with you… 

 

 

 

So, the important step to do: Make sure you take care of the config.xml of each save game, e.g. backup. Then, when you play Save Game A, you need to have the corresponding config.xml in the right folder… naturally. Same for Save Game B… 

 

Then, it's up to you how to manage or back up the files… 

 

Oh, remember to clean the cache every time you replace the file to another. 

 

 

 

If you don't understand what I wrote above, or you've no clue how to manage those config.xml files, then you may try the reference below… as others may explain better. In case, you're still confused, then I'd suggest that you'd better stick with a single save game to avoid any heartbreak… if you accidentally destroy a config file. 

 

It's not complicated, but need to be very careful.

Its all good I’ve managed to sort it now, I copied the Newgan facepack and renamed it so when I click on the file on FMZ.tools it creates a different config as technically using a different Newgan

pack just under another name. Thanks though!

I’m currently running 2 saves with the newgan faces loaded, but when I switch saves the faces change, is there a way to help this? I seen that you need to change the configs but I’m unsure how to do that.
