If you redownload 2014.02 it won't cause any problems, so if I was you I would just go for 2014.2-7.

All you have to do to update is merge the updated folder with the original and accept any overwrites

That's what I'm going to do, thanks. Just to clarify (because the file path is a bit more detailed than the facepacks), what exactly do I copy/where do I move it? Right now, my logos are under Football Manager 2014/graphics/logos/Football Manager 2014/graphics/pictures/flags and logos/...

I don't know why you didn't copy the config file, I haven't posted or seen anything which says you shouldn't. It's an integral part of the file. Each update pack contains the updated config file for the whole pack and not just the update pack, so you can just use the config file of the update pack you're up-to-date with.

So yes, just copy the config from the 6.6 pack.

Alright, thanks!

This probably sounds silly, but being my first FM, I wasn't aware this pack would be updated constantly. I just now noticed this and need some help trying to catch up to the most recent update. Was the only pack to be released as a torrent "Complete Pack 2014.1"? Asking, because I know got a torrent off this page to get whatever I'm using now (which is brilliant btw!).

The latest date I can find in my logopack folder is Oct. 30, 2013 which makes me think I actually downloaded the one update, 2014.2, which again is confusing because that was released on Nov. 20th according to the list. So... basically, any clarification would be great. I'm under the impression I don't need Update Pack - 2014.1 if I downloaded the Complete Pack - 2014.1.

Lastly, how exactly do I go about updating? When updating faces, I simply copy the images from the update into FM/graphics/faces/Megapack 6.0 and replace any duplicate/improvements. It seems the file path is a bit more tricky for this with multiple config files and large/medium/small images, sooo I'm a bit confused there.

Thanks for reading!

I downloaded the complete 6.0 Megapack a while ago and just started updating the other day (I'm up to 6.5 now!)

In the 6.1 to 6.5 updates, I've simply copied all of the images (and NOT the config file) and placed them in my Megapack 6.0 folder. I get the appropriate message for duplicates (improvements), replace all, and reload the skin when copying completes. Am I supposed to be copying the updated (6.1, for example) config file into my Megapack folder as well? I'm 99% sure I saw a new picture for Eto'o since updating, so I'm assuming the answer is no.

To save me some time, if I am supposed to be updating the config, would placing the 6.6 update cover from 6.1-6.5? I ask because I'm about to install that one now. If not, I have 6.1-6.5 on my hard drive.

PS the images are fantastic, thanks for all your work.
