#621401 Match Stats during highlights - Help Needed
Cook-Star
Fixed it. Just needed to click the clock in the top left hand corner.
This can be deleted if needs be. Thanks.
#621294 Match Stats during highlights - Help Needed
Cook-Star
Hi all,
Quick question.
For some reason, as you can see from my screenshot, on the left hand side, its showing the Match Stats and Notable Events whilst there are highlights going on. It only seemed to have appeared the last day or so, wondering if its a bug, or if ive accidently clicked something to get it to show.
I have reloaded the skin etc but nothing I do seems to be able to remove it from when highlights are being shown.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to get rid of it? Or is this some form up update which means it will always be there from now on?
Thanks.

Thought I'd give you an update.
The images are working fine now. As I say I put them into the graphics folder in stages and all is well.
Thanks for your help and assistance.

Thanks for all your help and advise. I've re downloaded the player pack and I am adding the images into the graphics folder in stages. Hopefully this will work.
Thanks again.

I have deleted it but will have to re download it but it was the one from the Cut Out Player Faces Megapack section (9.23gb).
Perhaps I will try the Exclusive 10 faces megapack to see if this gives me the issues. I guess its worth a try.

FM will load fine as long as I don't have the player faces megapack lol. I currently have the kits and trophies installed and they work no problem.
Before when I added the player faces I downloaded each segment separately because I wasn't a premium member. I decided this year to cut that out and download the full player faces pack and this year seems to be the year I'm having issues.
I have always had the "reload skin when confirming changes in preferences" ticked. Could this be an issue as its trying to pull the images every time?
I've added a screenshot of the Kits working in game.

It's almost like it causes it to lose power but that's not the case because I can run other games on steam and other applications work from the D drive.
The drive is nowhere near full. I have formatted it twice and its 3TB in size so its almost empty.

I download the multipack, into my C drive, extract the images from here to where my FM18 graphics folder is located which is on my D drive (one that's having issues). The images extract fine and I can see them appearing in the folder.
I have set FM18 launch options to launch from the D drive which I assume collects all the images to load into the game.
I then run the game and I get an error that FM cannot start and check on My Computer and the hard drive is missing. It's so strange, almost like it cannot cope with all the images.

I think the fact a large number of images get added to it and then loading the game and the game pulling thousand of images from this drive has caused it to have these issues, but as I said before its been fine in previous years. The Hard Drive is only 3 years old so wouldn't expect it to be coming to an end just yet.
I've been using WinRar to extract the images.

I'm just looking for some help here. I've played FM many years and have always downloaded the graphics for the games and have always worked fine for me until this year.
I've downloaded all the images again this year as I normally would but for some reason, when I extract the player faces multipack (the full download) it seems to corrupt my hard drive.The images go onto the hard drive no problem but shortly after adding them, the hard drive seems to pack up and I have to format it to get it working again.
I don't quite know why this is happening and googling doesnt seem to be of any help. Just wondering if anyone come across something like this and/or you could give me some advise.
Thanks for your help
Martin.

Hi mons,
He is in my folder, I've checked - see screenshot.
I have 178,579 face images.
So strange..

Every other player has a face pic except him which I find a bit strange. Has anyone else come across this? I've included a screenshot. I have reloaded skin a few times but he just seems to be missing?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Just looking for a bit of guidance with FM16. I've played the game every year since the FM franchise started and every year I've been addicted to the game winning many trophies with all kinds of teams etc etc.. I've had FM16 since the release and I can honestly say I am struggling and I have struggled ever since I bought it so I just want a few Hints and Tips from each of you. I want an insight to how you start off a new game.
As a Chelsea fan, I always always start a new game with Chelsea just so I can get to grips of the new layouts new features and generally will play them for 4/5 seasons before I take on a challenge with a smaller club.. So far on FM16 I've not managed to complete a single season with Chelsea without being sacked. I know why I'm getting sacked, it's because results are so poor, and in the past that is something I have always been able to correct.
What do you do when you start a new game?
The first things I normally do are:
- Backroom staff
In the past I've pretty much changed my whole backroom staff to increase specialisation in different fields of training to make sure I get the maximum coaching for my players. This would be the first thing I would do. Is this a good idea? Or is it best not up heave the whole backroom staff straight away?
- Tactics
I know tactics are extremely important and do tend to spend a bit of time on them. I gauge how my team should be set out on the quality of my players and what strengths I have in each position and normally create 2/3 tactics to make sure I'm covered when playing the best teams right down to the poor teams. I always set my players to play in their most effective roles. Is this a good idea? Or should I be looking at the bigger picture and making sure the players are playing in the specific roles best suited to the tactics?
- Match Preparation
I always set pre season preparation to be about fitness and tactics and always make sure its at very high during pre-season. But after that, I'm constantly getting players moaning that I'm giving them too much to do and I need to reduce their workload. Other then that, I will always select what my assistant suggests before a game. Should I be doing that? Or shall I just be looking at my opposition in a bit more depth then just trusting what my assistant says?
- Backroom advise before a match
When I am getting some backroom advise before a match and my assistant suggests to me to change tactics, mentality etc etc. Should I listen to him? I've always been a bit skeptical about changing my tactics too much because my players will not always be familiar with learning different tacitcs every other week.
I know the aim of the game is to be patient and to keep playing and when your losing dont quit. But I have literally had about 20 saves going and I really have struggled!
Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated as from playing FM for many years I feel a little bit lost that I am unable to enjoy FM16 as much as I had done with the previous versions.
Sorry to ramble on, but I thank you for your time.
Thank you.

#20873 FM13 Offline Error
Cook-Star
Just need some advice for a friend really.
Hes been playing FM absolutely fine the past week through steam. But unfortunately his router has packed up and he can no longer get access to the internet, and this is effecting his ability to launch FM13 in offline mode.
He has selected Offline mode in steam, and when he clicks the option to play, its brings up a box saying "Completing installation .. 0%" then it does nothing and says "the steam servers are too busy to handle your request for FM13 error code (3)" and the game doesn't load.
If anyone has any idea what the problem is could you give me a shout as, as you can imagine, my friend is finding it hard not being able to play FM!
If you need any more info, just shout and ill get any additional info.
Thanks all.
