Thanks all for trying to help.

I’ve tried unticking skin cache and ticked always reload skin on confirm (and all possible combinations, and reloading the game with all different combinations).

@ Rowan: you had suggested clearing the cache before, unfortunately it made no difference.

Thanks again. Due to coursework and exams over the next month I won’t be playing much FM (an uninstall, then reinstall might be a doubly wise move! ). I’ll try again around X-mas time and probably start the whole downloading process from scratch to hopefully resolve any problems.

Kenzie I notice from your screenshot that your Megapack 5.0 folder is directly inside your graphics folder. You should have a faces folder inside the graphics folder & the Megapack 5.0 folder should be inside the faces folder. Not sure if this will fix your problem but it's worth trying.


Thanks for the suggestion, but the faces folder (that is empty) was there from before when I had tried just that. I feel that I’ve exhausted all possibilities. Although, I’m sure it will be something incredibly simple that’s causing the problem.

Do you have two Sports Interactive folders in Documents? If yes, then the megapack should be in the other one...


Nope, just the one. Would yourself, or someone else, be able to make a config file available for download that works for the megapack with the 5.1 update?

It was mentioned earlier that it should be bigger than 8.18mb (not sure if that’s correct or not), but mine is that size and the person previously trying to help (Rowan) who suggested it should be 8.6mb put up a config for me to download. However, when I downloaded it, it was also 8.18mb.

What version of the game are you playing? I've heard reports of this megapack having some problems displaying in Football Manager Classic mode, but apparently the patch released yesterday solved the issue.

Also, KenzieQP, sorry if I've asked you this already, but are all the files in one folder and one folder only?


Apologies for not getting back to you sooner, been busy with coursework’s, unfortunately I still haven’t been able to resolve my problem.

I play the full version of the game, and also have no other facepacks installed.

A screenshoot of my megapack folder should be attached. I extracted the 5.1 update into the main megapack 5.0 folder, therefore all in the one folder now.

Same again, how many images do you have in your MP folder? Remind me again, what was your issue?


I have a total 118,255 items, including an 8.18MB config xml document.

I’m having some difficulty getting all the faces into the game. I’m guessing that it’s only the 5.01 update pack faces that are appearing in my game, I could be wrong.

I’ve followed the instructions and extracted the 5.0 mega pack into the graphics folder, then added the contents of the 5.01 update pack into the 5.0 mega pack folder. I’ve also selected the correct in game preferences as shown. I’ve tried changing skins and extracting the mega pack and update pack into separate folders, which have made no difference.

From what I can see very few faces are showing up in the game. A few well known faces that are showing up are Lionel Messi (+ the majority of Barcelona), Edgar Davids, Alexander Buttner and Craig Bellamy. No Ronaldo, Rooney, van Persie, etc. Also, very few English Championship and Scottish Premier League faces appear, which used to appear originally.

Any advice to get all faces working in my game would be appreciated.

I didn't spot it before, but just realised the size of your config is wrong. It should be 8.6mb. HERE is my one, try replacing what you have with it.


The config in download link is also 8.18mb and not 8.6mb, at least that is what it says for me. I tried it nonetheless, without any success.

Can you confirm the EXACT location of the pack?


Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2013 > graphics

I’ve also tried it in a sub-folder called ‘faces’.

Kenzie

Sounds like you may have other facepacks with other configs conflicting...? The Megapack has to be the only one, much like the Highlander.

If it's not that, try Clearing The Cache


The only face packs I have are the mega pack 5.0 and update pack 5.01 (with the contents of this within the mega pack). I’ve just tried the config from the mega pack 5.0 (which had been overwritten previously when I added the update pack) instead of the config from update pack 5.01, however nothing has changed.

Clearing the cache also made no difference.
