It might have been a png, but it did not have a transparent background at all, and in fact had a white one.

 

I'm attaching a cut-out of the same image. Use it and you should be fine 👍

 

That’s worked, mate. Thank you; appreciate it.

Are you sure you saved your cut-out picture as a png? Can you upload it here?

 

Yeah, it's definitely saved as a png. I've gone to ‘Properties’ on the image to make sure.

 

Upload the image? This is it.

EDIT Sorry, I'm not sure what happened there. Is that what you meant, upload the image? If so, how do I do that?

Hi, 

 

Not sure if this helps you but to change my digital manager face to my own all I done was go into Preferences-General-Change Profile Picture then choose the file where the cut out image is located (mine was in Pictures) then load it. Once that was done my Manager face now shows as my own cut out image.

 

I tried that, but my cut-out picture then appears with a white box around it. So, rather than just my uninterrupted silhouette, I’ve got a big square around my head.

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. 

 

Hi,

 

I’ve followed these instructions, but rather than replacing my digital managers’ face with mine, there’s a blank space where the picture should be.

 

I’ve used a picture of myself and had the background removed through the website remove.bg, so it’s basically a cut-out image.

 

If I add a manager picture through the in-game ‘Preferences’, the picture has a white background, so it isn’t cut-out.

 

I‘ve followed the instructions above, creating a new folder and using FMXML, just for that image, and I’ve also added my picture to the mega pack I downloaded, adding the required data into the config file through WordPad.

 

I’ve reloaded the skin, cleared the cache, etc. I’m at a loss as to why I’m getting nothing.

 

My original digital face I created is gone, but it’s replaced by a blank space, so I’m assuming I’m on the right track, but making a mistake somme where.

 

Has anyone faced a similar challenge or can anyone kindly assist?

Apologies if there is a thread for this, but I did a search and was unsuccessful.

I've downloaded the Resource Archiver because, although I've downloaded the cut-out mega pack, I want the original cut-out faces for the game ie. Scotland, Spain, etc.

What are the exact directions for 2014? I got it on FM 2013 and have tried on this one, but can't find the original images.

Thanks.

I got to stage five and had to create the folder 'editor data' because it wasn't there. Then, when I get to stage six where I'm supposed to open a folder called 'editor data files', I can't see one in the other folder (The one that I pasted 'dbc', 'edt' and 'Inc' into) called 'editor data files'.

I've had a look around and it's nowhere.

What should I do?

Thanks in advance.
