the current MP cutout is Nicholas Oyekunle, who you've already uploaded a cutout of 👍

 

👍 I was trying to match faces up, but failed. Thank you for the confirmation

@mons  the image I've uploaded is definitely Jayden Moore based on the Southampton, not sure who the other image is, but it'll be one of the other youngsters I've cut.

Hi folks, I'm trying to update a few cuts using the sources on oficial page for FIFA U17 World Cup. 

Would you guys suggest any tricks or methods that would allow me to grab the player pics with better quality, please? They all seem kinda foggy and low res to me when I try to open it.

https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/pt/tournaments/mens/u17worldcup/indonesia-2023/teams/senegal/squad

 

Thanks in advance!

All players with ID's that are new or improvements have been cut and will be in the next update

No, I might be loading too many images in Photopea and overloading it, it only seems to do it with images that are already cut tho, so images that go through a cutting AI are fine.

@mons  for some reason Photopea has been changing filenames on some of my images. I've been through most of my uploads and rectified the ones I've found which have been changed and uploaded them in this pack https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/submissions/collection/42557 

 

I can't work out why its happening, but i'll keep double checking things from now on.

Hi @NiceLad - the image you've uploaded is La'Sean Sealey and not Tyler Williams. Thanks!

 

Thanks Ryan, I've reuploaded them with the correct ID's. It's happened a few times with images saving with a different ID. I need to find out why that keeps happening

Just downloaded this and I've hit my next batch of regens.

 

Do I need to redo the steps of exporting the rtf file every time I want to add new faces?

 

I couldn't really see it answered anywhere.

Yes, re save the regen shortlist, and then run it through Newgan again, make sure you have the mode set as preserve, so that it only updates new regens.

Does anyone know if the latest face pack “2024.00 - Newgan Faces” is related to this?

It requires premium users to see the download link so that I cannot verify it myself.

 

They can be used with the NewGAN tool, the download is for this pack of faces https://fm.zweierkette.de/en/ultrarealistic-newgan-faces-english/

I think the search function hasn't quite caught up with the new database entries just yet. Perhaps @Footygamer can confirm too.

 

Cheers mons, I thought it might be something like that.

@mons is there a problem with the search function? If I search for a newly added person they don't show up, even tho they are in the database.

The website isn't updated to FM24 yet. Theres an image here https://sortitoutsi.net/comments/get/750302 if you want to add him yourself you can. He'll be in the megapack once the website has updated with new ID's for newly added players

Also, @NiceLad, are you sure this is the right cut for this person? Looks a bit different, I think.

 

Yeah my cut is the wrong ID, it should be 78089358 SEBASTIÁN CÁCERES.

Going by some of the posts in this thread, it got updated at some point after the beta was launched. I think it was a few days later, if memory serves.

 

Closer to the time, I'll ask for volunteers to help me rename some of the no-ID images I have saved at my end, if that's what you're driving at 😉

Yeah, I've got a folder with un-cut images to go through as well when its updated. I can help you out as well.

@NiceLad, can I just remind you about this for images like this?

 

Edit: and actually, also the last paragraph of this.

Cheers mons, I missed your last message about this. Id not seen the hue menu before.

@mons  When does the site get updated with new players added in FM24? Will it be after the full game release?

Is the first site as good in terms of output as remove,bg though?

 

As for the use of image enlargers, we are not particularly big fans. Using an AI image enlarger just “guesses” what certain pixels should look like when you make the image larger, and the result looks blurry/out of focus on certain details, with unrealistically smoothened skin, and unnatural looking hair/beard/eye/teeth details.

 

It's not really needed for images like this, where the original source is good enough to extract a decent cut from. It might be needed for small sources to bump them up to become just about cuttable, but there will in most cases be better sources to cut images from.

 

Ive found it just as good, it does sometimes struggle on images with complicated hair, but its great on everything else. The images save as ID's without adding the annoying “removebg-preview” line that remove.bg adds.

 

Yeah that makes sense with the up scaling. Its amazing what options there are now tho, compared to when we first started out. Doing 25 images used to take hours, but now they can be done in 30 minutes.

@mons  a couple of other websites for cutting

 

  1. https://www.cutout.pro/remove-background/upload  Same as remove.bg, but you can upload multiple sources at once, which is a bit easier
  2. https://www.cutout.pro/photo-enhancer-sharpener-upscaler Image enhancer, I'm currently using it and its fantastic

Example

How did you go about getting the images bigger so I know for future reference? 

 

So open the image in a new tab so you get this

nufc.co.uk/media/79955/will-brown-007.png?anchor=center&mode=crop&width=350&height=460&quality=75

 

then just delete everything after .png and reload the image to get this

@Tombull360, please be a bit more selective about which images to request. These aren't close to being large enough. The image itself is small, and the face within it is probably only around 120-150 pixels high, so it'll need to be enlarged almost twice to fit the 250x250 canvas, thus losing a lot of sharpness. So it's hardly worth ti.

 

@NiceLad, please save yourself the time and choose only those images which are genuine improvements. This one, for example, most definitely won't be.

 

You can get the images bigger on the NUFC site, so ive re collected them at a much bigger resolution

Do consider removing a bit of saturation from sources like this @NiceLad, because it looks like he was out in the sun a little too long 😉

 

I don't know if it's Photoshop or Photopea you're using, but the top two links of this post contain action files for both software which contains common actions such as brighten, reduce saturation, resize to 250x250 as a single click and which you may wish to download 😉

 

 

I'm using photpea, I've got the  action files now, I'll have a play about. I've never been good with the colour correcting lol
