#53043 Packs for FM 2008

The cut-out facepack and logo's will work but there is a problem with FM08 reading large config files. I can't remeber what the exact limit is but it's around 15,000-20,000 lines.

So to be able to use them fully you need to split these packs up into separate folders so that they don't contain more then 15,000 images and then use FMXML or FM Graphics Configurator to create new config files for each folder.

I originally posted this cut in the Alternative Cut Out thread of the old forum ages ago, but was probably lost when the site changed.

The other Pierluigi Casiraghi is a head scout at Inter, his age in FM is incorrect (I think you might find that his DOB is blank in the editor so it just randomly generates it) as I don't think that information is available.

Great work as usual with the megapack cut out pics, i've only noticed one mistake so far. Pierluigi Casiraghi (UID 43002287) seems to have the wrong picture, unless he has aged considerably since the last time i saw him.


It is the correct picture, there are 2 Pierluigi Casiraghi's in FM, the ex-Lazio/Chelsea player has the UID 8433.

Have you downloaded update 5.3 yet? It might be worth doing as it will provide you with the latest config file.

I'll post it in here when I'm on my PC to see if anybody recognises it so that it can be assigned the correct ID.

If nobody has by tomorrow evening, I'll do it myself. PM me if I forget


As I play FM08, and have to split the megapack up, I have to go through the images manually before moving them into the correct folders and that image appears again with the ID 6300469 - Ricardo Veron.

3,451 images in my face folder!


You have about 109,000 faces missing from your Megapack! I think you may have downloaded one of the "update packs" instead of the "complete pack".

Jojobuffon,

That all looks fine, just double check that you have the right boxes ticked/unticked in your Interface section of Preferences menu.

33 Players from PSG's U19 & U17 squads plus 1 memeber of staff.

I only have the demo version of FM13 and couldn't find these players but might be worth checking with the editor.

the config file is still in the folder its 8,538 KB, should the images still work then?


That looks about right so I'm not sure why it's not working. Are you sure that you have your "Faces" folder in the Sports Interactive folder in Documents/Sports Interactive/FM13?

By bazmaestro | Permalink | On 03 January 2013 - 23:44 PM
Thanks for the reply...I only checked a few teams' players, but an example would be Andrea Bertolacci's ID is 43028376

when I find it it explorer it shows like this

(hope the quality is okay)


http://i573.photobucket.com/albums/ss172/bazza23/fm1_zps10d38cc7.jpg

As you can see most of the faces load up, but the ones that don't load up in Windows Explorer correspond with the faces that don't load up in the game....hope this makes sense, thanks again!


It looks like this may not have extracted properly, I would suggest trying it again using winRAR.

This pack does not work at all. I've asked many people who have downloaded this pack and they are all stumped as they followed the exact steps as I did, only it worked for them and doesn't for me.

I downloaded the latest pack moved the faces folder in my Graphics folder (which is in the Documents/Sports Interactive/FM13 folders) went on prefrences, unticked the first box, ticked the last three and clicked Reload Skin. A logo pack which I downloadedf from a different site worked but this pack didn't. Furthermore, it's deleted the other players with faces, such as the players from the K-League and the Championship, for example.

Any help?


Which pack did you download? If this is the first time you've downloaded the Megapack you need to download the complete pack which is over 5GB and contains over 120,000 images.

Hi metal boon thanks for replying, its just the default black faces , I've got over 110k faces in my faces folder in the graphics folder ,it was working fine Tuesday nite once i finished extracting them I had them in all seperate folders at first but moved them all into the one faces folder.


The first thing to check is if you have a config file in your faces folder. If you do it should just over 8mb in size.

If you don't have the config file or it's smaller in size than 8mb then you can either;

1. Download update pack 5.2 as this will have the latest config file in it.

2. Or download FMXML (use the search function to find the download link) and you can create your own.

i tried to download kits today,and was messing about with the DB steam folder,dont think i did that right but i restored the files from the recyclying there but its still not working?


Do you have blank spaces where the players faces should be or are they the default black ones?

If they are the default black faces you probably have the wrong config file in your folder. The config file in your Megapack folder should be over 8mb in size.

Probably more of an alternative (for some reason I'm unable to add images/links etc when adding a comment on that thread today!) but I'm sure it would have been requested at some point.

Hi hammer9,

I have a quick question I hope that you can help me with? On previous versions of FM (08-12) it was possible to add extra lines to the config file to allow kits to appear on the tactics and match overview screen (I've posted a screen shot from FM08 to show what I mean). As I don't have FM13 I wondered if this was still possible?

If so I'll post up a tutorial on how to do this.

It wasn't so simple as putting the file into System 32 but it works now anyway, thanks for your help!


No problem.

I'm using Windows Vista and the process was pretty straight forward for me, what version of Windows are you using & what else did you have to do? I only ask so that if anyone else has the same problem we have a solution!

Every time I try and install the program I get the following error code

"The program can't start because MSVCR70.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I've tried it tonnes of times, any ideas please??


Just follow the advice from the above post, but search for "MSVCR70.dll" instead. As these programs were written a few years ago, probably for Windows XP/Vista you will find several ".dll" files are missing on newer versions of Windows.

Hope this helps.

There are 2 ways of adding new images to the megapack;

1. The easiest is to use FMXML or FM Graphics Configurator, the chances are that you're getting "MFC70.DLL is missing" when you attempt to run it. If so, this can be downloaded (just Google search for a site to download the file) to fix the problem.

or;

2. Open the config file in your megapack with Notepad and insert this line to it;

<record from="UID" to="graphics/pictures/person/UID/portrait"/>

Just replace the parts in red with the players UID.

HI Guys, Im new to all this , I have downloaded the file and extracted it to my desktop when i run the FMXML application but when i try to run the program i get "The program cant start because MFC70.DLL is missing from your computer. try reinstalling to fix the problem"

I am completely lost can you help?

Thanks in advance


I've had this problem before, just Google "MFC70.DLL download" and you should find a few sites where you can download this from. All you have to do is unzip the file and put it in C:\Windows\System32.

This should fix the problem.
