Now I am confused. Who is Mazilu? Never heard of him. Was he an overpowered player like Cherno Samba?

Hi @gunnerfan69 another one who still knows Susie! 🙂 Before I started this topic, I really thought the Susie nickname just vanished from memory, but it looks like I was wrong. Good to see we all know these times. 

Just read a post from Cleon on SI forums where he wanted to create a new tactic Bible. I guess FM really stays “inside” us (don't know how to phrase that in English) and even after about 25 years of FM gaming (started when Henry and Trezeguet were still at Monaco) and all these time on the forums (18 at SI, 16 at Susie) it still is my favorite game.

As you said too, lots of names ring a bell and bring back memories.

Cheers!

@Poe thanks for the link! That was a absolute great joy to read. I remember the time with Caley and Cleon, as the latter asked me to follow. It was at that moment that the SI Community forums where not that fun anymore. There were lots of people who complained. Not only about the game, but also about eachother. So Susie became my home for Football Manager. Nowadays the official SI forums are great again, luckily.

@wfm18 Hahaha, so I am even not the only one at that 🙂

@R Charlston : Yes!

@Footygamer Nice to know that more people remember the Susie days and still call it that way. Those memories, those feelings about a shared past create a bond. Back then, my mother once asked “what kind of website is that ”Sorty Tootsy" ?" In my mind that is now its second nickname 😁 Nice that you changed the name in the newsletter!

@wfm18 Thanks very much! It doesn't matter if one is here for a long time, a few years,  or just started. We're all FM-family.

@Poe Great! I really thought most people forgot the name. I'm glad I asked 😁

I see Footygamer and Poe joined almost at the same moment as I did (may 6th and may 7th, 2006). And Mons joined a few weeks after. Does anyone know how old Susie is? When did it all start?

Many years ago, I was invited by @Cleon  to this great website/forum. SortItOutSI was colloquially known amongst it's forum users as Susie. Through the years I kept thinking about this site as the Susie Forums. We had the Susie Real Name Fix, Susie Transfer Update and Susie Kits. Nowadays it is still one of my favorite places on the internet, though I don't post that often anymore. One thing thatI noticed was that the Susie name is not in use anymore, or at least, that I don't see it anymore. 

Do more people still think about Susie when you visit SortItOutSI? Do you use the name yourself when you mention SortItOutSI?

@mons Yes! It works 🙂 Thanks!

Thank you

@mons The 9 GB torrent. With unzipping it said it missed one file and that there was more info after the header or something like that.

Mons, I've download the latest 9 GB megapack again and got only 62100 faces out of it

@mons Here you are:

I have my faces megapack in this folder: C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\players\faces

and C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\players\iconfaces but it won't show in my game. I ticked and unticked the right boxes, as it shows all my other graphics in my game, but not the player faces. What am I doing wrong?

@Qvordrup Thanks very much. I'll do that tonight! :-)

Thanks for your fast reply.

Yeah I know this structure is complicated, but it is what 7Zip unzips from those files. So if I unzip a logopack (or any of the other mentioned packs) in my graphics folder, this structure is what I automaticly get.

Must every update pack get a new folder (like graphics\logos\mainpack, graphicss\logos\changes1, graphics\logos\changes2, etc) or do I copy/move (and possibly overwrite) everything in one logo folder (like graphis\logos\metallicpack)?

Edit: Before unzipping I copy the zip/rar to the graphics\logo folder and unzip from there. Can I leave the original zip/rar there afterwards, or should I remove them from those folders?

I probably do something wrong, but I cannot get my logos and other graphics to show in my game.

This is how my folders look like:

C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\kits\sortitoutsi.net Standard Kits Megapack for FM2022v3\graphics\kits\ned\tweede-divisie\2d

C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\backgrounds\sortitoutsi Stadium Backgrounds Megapack 2023.00\sortitoutsi Stadium Backgrounds\stadium_backgrounds\images

C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\logos\metallic_logos_2022.09_changes\sortitoutsi Metallic Logos\graphics\pictures\logos\metallic logos\clubs\normal

C:\Users\name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\faces\sortitoutsi_cutout_megapack_2022.00\sortitoutsi\iconfaces

I've unticked use cache and I ticked reload skin but it changes nothing. What am I missing?

Edit: solved. Combination with TMC's 2 nationality update changed 6 nation names.
