They don't just click the button and upload the update after the whistle blown in the last playoff match… It takes time to test and verify everything.

go straight to FM24, avoid FM26 as its not finished and bug ridden

with FM 24 there is the best skin, Flut and lots of other features that are not in FM26

No idea I have the ID in the pack but I can’t seem to find it in-game and I doubt it will be in the editor as he isn’t officially in the game, I have also started it multiple times with different variations of the Max Dowman download and none seemed to work

Find the id by adding the preference, then edit the config of the face to the id in the save

I've tried and tried with this game. Made allowances for all the bugs and let them gradually get it all working better.

But now they've finally managed to make it actually unplayable. Months and months of development to make the game so slow it just makes you scream.

It’s a turd of a game, SI should be ashamed, I have never known so many fixes, it just shows the game wasn’t ready for release, and still isn’t, yet some are lapping it up as the match engine looks like PES from 5 years ago.

FM24 is excellent by comparison, especially now with fluts v.10 skin

There is no exact simatch.fmf file when I download. There is a bunch of folders like tactics and events. What are the exact instructions? Where do these files go?

the folder is “SImatch”, inside are 4 further folders and 5 jsb files

just swap the simatch folder in steam with the new one, keeping the old one on your desktop safe

For now no good news, unfortunately … Todays update has seriously broken a couple of things for us, so we can not simply update the skins to the new versions.

In a combined effort, we're curently trying to sort out why some things are broken and how we can fix it.

So be patient and stay tuned… :-)

Good old SI, they really don’t care about the customer

When you have a blank space instead of a cut-out, it means there is a config file pointing to a folder in which an image with that UID is not present. This generally happens when an update pack is installed in a separate folder and not part of the overall faces folder, or there is a rogue config file somewhere. It could also be that you have somehow not downloaded the full megapack but only part of it. Search within the graphics folder for the UID of this person, and you will probably find the secondary image. Delete that folder, and it should be fine.

Otherwise, follow the steps in this comment and post the results so that we can see what's what.

thanks will give it a go

i downloaded the full pack again this year after years of updated

i have circa 540k images in the pack
