Afaik there's very few graphics for the female leagues right now, FMG are releasing 500+ female league logos soon and they have a few kit packs for them as well but apart from that it's slim pickings right now, hopefully it changes.

Hi guys

 

Very aware I am probably being silly here and you will have no doubt answered this already at some point. I have downloaded both of the new small packs since the launch of FM26 to update my faces. It doesn't seem to add onto my current save game. Do I have to begin a new game to get these to work? Do I just extract it into the same location and replace all?

 

Thanks

 

Nothing related to graphics needs a new game no, just extract the new pack into the same folder as the previous and replace everything when asked and you're good to go.

great work as always. have just downloaded the 2026.01 changes file but couldn't see a config file in there? apologies if i have missed something

 

Definitely in there, load it up in 7zip or whatever and sort the column by size and you will see it as it's the biggest file there.

 

Ok I was a minute late on the post and can't delete it myself so mods feel free to delete ๐Ÿ˜€

I'm probably mistaken, but I'm sure there was a time (FM24?) when this worked. I don't recall creating competitions and dealing with Parthenope or Real San Sebastian, but it's a long time ago now.

I think perhaps the Brazilian clubs always showed as FLA etc?

I'd be interested to hear what Mons knows, because I feel like something changed.

 

He already answered it, the pre-game editor has its own set of dbc, edt and lnc folders you need to copy the fix over to so it shows up in the editor as well.

Even though the source image is big the quality is pretty poor, I'll upload the face as is but can you find a better source because I can't.

@Kalou, good work again ๐Ÿ‘

 

Can I suggest that you remember to mark images you're working on, to make sure no one else takes them on at the same time without knowing they've been cut already?

 

Yea I noticed that's happened once or twice so if I do more requests I'll remember do to that ๐Ÿ™‚

It's common because for some reason SI have used the same ID's more than once so Boca and some Italian clubs etc share the same ID with random nations I believe and unless they change it themselves I very much doubt anyone else can fix it.

Only decent image I could find was one with a medal around his neck that needed rotated plus his neck is a bit long so it would've looked weird.

They're not top notch, but they're fine, truth be told.

 

However, if, in the future, the only sources you can find for other people are truly terrible, then as a rule of thumb, it's better not to have any cut at all than a bad cut ๐Ÿ˜‰

 

Well when you're looking for Spanish u17 female players you're lucky to get a picture for some of them never mind good ones and I agree with terrible cuts which is why I've not done some of them, these are borderline but I just upload them anyway and see if you guys want them over nothing at all ๐Ÿ™‚

@Kalou, this is what we mean when we say that we want it cropped closer to the chin. I've also removed the green tinge in the image, and given it what I hope is a more natural look ๐Ÿ‘

 

Well I understand that now but you also said to have a collar so I wasn't sure, so I guess from now on you want all faces to be cropped this close to the chin regardless of a collar showing and I should've tried to edit the colour as well that's my bad, thanks though.

I assure you that's not the case. English isn't his mother tongue, so he tends to tag me in order that I can explain. You wouldn't get a warning for that, either ๐Ÿ™‚

 

The tutorials thread can be found here. In this case the issue is that there's a bit of snow around the head and that the cut could be cropped closer to the chin. Easy enough fixes to get on board for future cuts ๐Ÿ˜‰

 

Ok thanks I appreciate that and no worries I'll cut closer to the chin from now on.

@Kalou Good cut, but please remember that we want all cuts to include a little bit of collar. At the same time, the ideal cut only contains 2-3 pixels beneath the chin. Since in some sources like this one, the person in the image may have a longer neck than usual, this would be quite difficult to achieve naturally.

 

I'll fix this one myself, but please keep it in mind for any future cuts you may do ๐Ÿ‘

 

Here's a video of the process on how to nudge the collar upwards:

 

I'll be honest when I uploaded it I saw the short neck and was going to redo it but forgot, I'm confused though as I see a lot of faces being cut very close to the chin without any collar showing and it's hard to show collar without it cutting off at the sides and looking bad but yea I'll see what I can do, cheers.

I think you should reconsider this. For a file that's already huge in size, I don't see why I should have to take up space for something I'm not going to ever use. Having the choice wouldn't be hard, I'm certain you could do it. 1 pack men's, 1 pack women's. You wouldn't even need to change the xml  

 

You probably don't use 50% of the faces in the pack so why not go through and delete them as well? you act like there's going to be 50 thousand pictures of female players and it's going to add gigs onto the actual pack, now tell us what your real issue isโ€ฆ

Is any chance for women's facepack? I find a DF11 facepack but I don't know if I do something wrong or this facepack have photo of players in Swedish League but face like Bonmati, Puttellas - no. I will be grateful for all the graphics to Women's database - face, logos etc.

 

You did nothing wrong, that pack includes 5 leagues and the Liga F isn't one of them so you will have to wait a bit longer for the rest of the leagues and it's the only face pack I've seen so far that includes women.

There is a white line above every player picture when using the Cut Out pack that isnt present without it (as in using SI's licensed player pictures).

 

That line also appears when you add your own faces to the game like I did with two players so it's not just specific to this face pack but I wonder if we need to save them differently as the default ones don't have it.

daft question, but if I want to play dynamic, when starting a new game, do I select all of the league updates and one of the dynamic updates or just the dynamic one and nothing else?

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but inside the editor data is a non dynamic file, you have to delete that and use 1 of the 10 dynamic ones from the optional folder and load everything else as you normally would.

I am confused with instructions now. Basically I have download the patch and now I need to download another file that you send? whatโ€™s next after

 

You either download those DDT files and install them where instructed to load the top Australian clubs or pick the A League when you make a new save, either way to load these wonderkids you NEED to create a new save so it's much better just loading the A League anyway.

Itโ€™s fm20 for this file. I prefer fm24. 

 

Doesn't matter, it's the exact same process involved regardless of FM, remember this game barely changes for decades so a DDT file you create for 24 will work in 20 and even older versions, it's only loading specific players from clubs using the unique ID's they have that don't change between FM's.
