#827115 Identifying User IDs for Support Staff

I've managed to add realistic faces for all of the regens in my current save, as well as all of my front-line staff.  The problem I now have is, because almost everyone in the game look so good, the terrible cartoon-like faces of my supprt staff look even worse!  I read somewhere that the Unique ID of my personal assistant is usually one up from my own and sure enough it was.  So I know how to assign a face to a support staff member but I have no idea how to look up the Uniqe ID of the rest of them; Player Liaison Officer, Press Officer, etc.  Does anyone know an easy way of finding this information out?

I have tried that, but it still does not work. I must be doing this incredibly wrong 

 

I've been installing these updates for years and it's not working for me either.  I'm hoping someone can help with my issue too, because it's getting really frustrating now!

@Kerim Salih Try removing the “FMUpdate - January 2025”. Likely that one that causes conflict.

 

Thanks @Zoul, I actually spotted that after posting and deleted it but it hasn't made any difference.

I have installed the new update in the same way I have always done.  However, on this occasion there are a number of issues;

 

  • If I select the latest database (24.3.0) when starting a new game, the “Choose Game Mode” button is greyed out and I can't proceed.  I can only start a new game by selecting the original database (24.0.0).
     
  • Once the game is loaded, none of the leagues are updated; Sheffield United are still in the EPL, Leeds United are still in the Championship, etc.
     
  • If I try to load the saved game in FM Genie Scout it only gets so far and then hangs and I have to force the app closed.

 

I've attached screenshots of my "Choose Game Mode" screen and my “Editor Data” folder and would appreciate someone who knows what they're looking for taking a look!

 

Thanks in advance!
