Yes to the bit in bold.

 

Due to the variable UID issue, it may be the case that the persons' UID's are different in other saves and therefore the process might not necessarily work for other save games.

 

Okay, thank you for your help!

Quite an obscure issue, I'll grant you.

 

Due to licensing issues, out of the whole list of Ajax staff members, only Overmars and Van der Sar (I believe) are in the default database. The remaining staff members are not visible and needed to be added as part of the licensing fix files.

 

The megapack works by using the config file to assign images to a person's Unique ID number. Persons who are in the database have a fixed UID, whether it's on your save game, mine or on the save game of somebody in Nepal or Bolivia. However, when it comes to persons added in a custom editor data file (like the Ajax staff mentioned above), the UID's are variable and will depend entirely on the combination of editor data file the person using them has in place. Consequently, cut-outs for persons not in the default database cannot be included in the megapack because they cannot be reliably assigned to the right person.

 

It is however possible for you to download the cut-outs for these persons from previous versions of the megapack using the cut-out search tool, put them in a separate folder, save them by the UID that they have in your save game and generate a config file for them using the methods outlined in this thread.

 

Thank you for your reply! So basically I should find the UID of each the staff and download the pictures individually and save them as the corresponding ID number in a folder in the graphics folder? Will this carry over to other save games as well?

Hi there. I downloaded the megapack and started a save with Ajax but none of Ajax staff pictures are there except for Overmars. Am I missing something?
