Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am quite confused. Is there no way of only downloading the face packs of certain leagues? 10GB with over 420'000 files is a bit too much to handle for my tablet... :-D

This is not really the thread to be asking tbh, but I know for a fact that the Metallic logopack is not structured as you describe it. The continents and countries folders refer to the logos for the respective confederations and national associations respectively. Club logos in the Metallic logopack are indiscriminately lumped into one folder, along the same lines as in this pack.


Oh, yeah, it wasn't a question, just a comment on how I think to solve the problem mentioned earlier (and apply the same to the facepack, but that is still downloading haha). I am aware that this thread is not about logopacks.
And I was talking about the TCM Logos Megapack, not the Metallic one, as I prefer the simpler, plainer look of it.

But sorry, I didn't want to go off topic.

Both the full-fat and the Touch version use the same graphics user data folder. The only things which I believe don't work for the Touch version are editor data files, which will affect part of the licensing fix. Luckily, there's a fix (for the fix, as it were ) posted in the first post of the licensing fix thread for just this situation


Aah, thank your very much. Would not have found that by myself


And about the other thing: I just saw that for example the Logopack is structures in folders by continent and countries. So I realized I can just make my "own logopack" pretty quickly by deleting all the countries I don't want and minimizing the number of files on my laptop without too much hassle. (yeah I guess I am a bit paranoid hahah)

I feel the system currently works well and having a 7GB folder on your PC isn't really a big deal these days, neither in terms of bandwidth to download or hard-disk space.


I think the problem is not diskspace or bandwith, you are right, but that todays operatings systems will try to instantly index everything and always. And 170'000 extra files will surely be a heavy load on a laptop etc. I think my computer doesn't even come close to that amount of files all together before installing that pack

I'm not sure whether the Steam workshop bug still applies tbh, as I've steered well clear of it in the last FM versions. I've no idea what it does either, as I don't use files from the Steam Workshop. I believe that when you first download a file from Steam Workshop, it (used to?) re-organises your graphics folder to be able to read both the file(s) from the Steam Workshop as well as any other user files which had been added manually.


Hmm okay. So I will just not open the workshop for FM then... hahah


Btw. This year I am using the Football Manager TOUCH 2016 version (on Steam) instead of the full simulation. Do I have to expect any problems with installing facepacks, logopacks or name fixes? Or is the whole folder structure and ingame structure the same and I can just follow the instructions for the main version on here? Thanks

Hey guys

Is there a plan to release a kind of "Essential Facepack" version? Since many people probably would only need some of the top leagues and 175'000 pics on your laptop is way overkill if you maybe need 30'000 or so or even less.

Thanks for the info

edit: And btw. can someone explain to me the "steam workshop bug" mentioned in the OP? In which case happens the doubling of all images? When I only open the workshop? So every time I open it now, it creates a copy of the whole MyDocuments/SI/Football Manager 2016 folders?
#137802 Senior Squad vs U21 Squad for young players

Hey guys,

I just bought an 19yr old left Fullback (Jonathan Silva from Estudiantes) in the winter transfer window. I now plan to let him play with the U21 squad for the rest of the season and only use him in the first team when both my left backs are injured/exhausted.

Now, does it matter to his development or his experience gains from U21 matches if he is marked and put into the U21 squad or kept in the Senior squad and just marked as eligible for all U21 matches for 90mins?

Does the momentary squad a young player is in affect him? Meaning U21 matches are more useful to young players in the U21 squad than to young players in the Senior squad? Or is it merely a help to keep things more clear?


And actually another quick question: I let Özil tutor Zelalem and his stats are improving quite a bit. But because Özil has only 9 Determination, Zelalem's determination fell down to 11 from 16 within a few months. Now my question: Will it recover again (slowly) as soon as I stop Özil tutoring him or is his determination decrease indefinitely? (without letting him be tutored by another player with high determination)

cheers!
#137469 Graphic bug in line-up window

Hey guys,

my game seems to have a graphic bug/problem in the line-up graphics. Both in the tactics window and in the line-up screen before a match the players are only displayed as black squares with their jersey numbers on them instead of the regular graphic.

Here's a screenshot of the bug

I have facepacks, kits, 3d kits and logos (all downloaded from sortitoutsi) installed and apart from this everything works perfectly. I even deleted all the kits and reloaded the skin but the bug was still there. so it seems it has nothing to do with the downloaded kits.

anyone knows this bug? knows how to resolve it?
oh and I play on a mac if that helps.

cheers!

#136275 Do the "Staff Roles" bars matter?

Hey guys,

so I picked this old guy up for my team as an Assistant Manager because Steve Bould isn't that great and this guy has fantastic attributes for this position.
But after signing him I noticed that his bar in the "Staff Roles" section is quite low respectively the lowest. (https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/R7ahZsetjGjFAdzlZUls8N2S0d3zkyhvinL5xsoa.jpg)

So does this matter? What do these bars even mean? Do they display a persons interest in a staff role? Show how used he is to this role and therefore should increase with time? Or is it his ability to do this job and I have made a big mistake picking him up?
(I thought only the attributes matter for certain things. Like motivation for team speaks, tactical knowledge for opposite team instructions etc.)

Thanks!

Did you find out which files messed up your graphics? Because I seem to have the same problem.

If you mean by "default kits" your SS14 kits, then yes. They also work. But I noticed that for teams/leagues I haven't downloaded your (awesome) kits these "graphic bug kits" show up, on a black square background.

Also when seeing the formations before 3D matches instead of the kits or players faces there are just black squares with the red (jersey) numbers on them. It looks quite ugly...

Hey guys,

I just downloaded FM14 and implemented Logos, Real Names Fix, Faces, kits and 3dkits from this site and followed the installation instructions. everything seems to work fine except the kits in the tactic window look weird and bad as if they were replaced by the wrong files. I attached a screenshot.

Anyone familiar with this problem/bug and knows what to do?

Cheers!
