Thanks for your quick response! Totally understand your point and thank you for the explanation aswell, however since there have been multiple (beta) patches since this issue first occured, it looks like SI didn't add any additional new players after the very first post-launch patch. For example, ever since this issue occurred, Max Dowman has ID 2002042572 instead of 2002042558. It's a guess but that probably means there won't be any new players in the next patches either. Which would mean an update to the current ‘New wonderkid facepack' picture ID's would solve the issue for all new saves going forward.

 

Considering it only changed in the very first patch, you don't need different versions for different builds either. Just one newly updated version, based on the current DB. In this case, would it be an issue you could resolve? Would love to get your take on this and thanks again!

Hi, I've installed the data update and prior to the latest FM26 update on Steam everything looked fine, but now the player ID's of the newly added players are mixed up for some reason… for example Max Dowman has the ID (and face img) of newly added player Bernardo Busatori (ID: 2002042572), while Busatori has the ID (and picture) of Francisco Wang in game (ID: 2002042586) and so on… every newly added player has the wrong ID.

 

The latest data update still has this issue. In contradiction to my first post about this issue; I once again checked the FMF-file of the latest data update and there I saw that the unique ID of Max Dowman (for example) is actually 2002042572 in the data update FMF. While the ID in the facepack (img & config) is 2002042558 (matching Leon Sylejmani in the data update FMF). This is the case for all newly added players.

 

This mismatch means either the ID's in the ‘Facepack for new wonderkids' download or in the Data Update are incorrect. I tested this just now (nov 16th, 1am) so I'm using the latest available files. Could you please update either one of these files so they match eachother again? Would be wonderful. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I've installed the data update and prior to the latest FM26 update on Steam everything looked fine, but now the player ID's of the newly added players are mixed up for some reason… for example Max Dowman has the ID (and face img) of newly added player Bernardo Busatori (ID: 2002042572), while Busatori has the ID (and picture) of Francisco Wang in game (ID: 2002042586) and so on… basically every newly added player has the wrong ID?

 

When I check the fmf file in the pre-game editor the ID's DO match up like they should… this only regards the new players from the latest data update. Is this a known issue? I don't understand where the problem's coming from and how I should fix it… any help would be greatly appreciated! 

Edit: I checked and I don't use any other files in editor data that adds new players / edits ID's or anything like that. I tried starting a new career save with everything else turned off but the data update and the player ID's still get mixed up.

 

Test update: I downgraded from the public_beta FM26 patch to regular patch on Steam and afterwards the ID's were correct again. So problem is caused by the last beta patch… SI at it again! Workaround for anyone encountering this issue: use the regular FM26 patch (downgrade on steam if necessary) → setup your new save completely and save it → quit FM and update via Steam to public_beta patch and restart + load. Now you can play on latest patch with the correct IDs / images. Hopefully this helps someone instead of endless trial and error like me lol - and thanks for all your work to all staff.
