No idea, since it isn't me who takes care of those technical aspects 😢

Ok, thanks anyway.

Do you know if Football Manager supports WEBP format? Maybe with the switch to Unity there are some additional options? The same image saved as .webp is just 12 KB…

Ah, I see now. It'll have to do with the compression to reduce filesize. It's a trade-off, I guess.

 

Thanks, now everything has fallen into place.

The size of the file from website is 74 KB and the size of the file in the pack is 25 KB. So indeed such trade-off makes sense.

By the chance do you know which compression algorithm was used and what settings were used? I would like to check if similar results can be achieved by compressing the RGB and alpha channels separately.

@Dmitri-K, I'm not sure what exactly it is that you're saying.

Left is image from website: https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/browse/1/594454/timeline

Right is image from the pack: https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/1/download

 

Now compare alpha channels. I increased the contrast so you can see the difference better:

 

Upscaled version:

I noticed that all portraits in recent packs have transparency artifacts.

You can check it yourself:

Download https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/download/change/1246

Open any portrait in Photoshop, e.g. face_29.png

Apply Color Overlay effect on the layer, with black color - this will recolor all opaque areas into black, and you will see the transparency better

Similar artifacts are present on all portraits.

 

I randomly found this when I wanted to create a sillouette image from a photo from megapack.

What I also tested: if you find the same image on the website and download it as png, you won't see such artifacts.

This club has all faces completed

But it still shows only 95%

Completed cut-outs can only be uploaded in png format. If a request is uploaded in webp format, it is up to the user downloading it to decide what extension it is saved as 😕

You can't choose the extension if you download a pack.

There's an issue with WEBP format.

If a user uploaded pictures in webp format, when you download them, they are renamed (but not converted) to .png

Some pictures miss the “active” status:

Only iconface is displayed:

Picture is present in megapack:

I think that's a bit harsh and not quite correct. I can see that the Bale and Marcelo ones can have their contrast and/or gamma correction tweaked a bit, and maybe even the Asensio one, but the others are either not in the megapack at all or perfectly fine.

Just a bad source was used… And pictues from better source were already in megapack… Where's the harsh…

Most of pictures in this pack: https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/submissions/collection/23303

are duplicates of existing pictures, but with bad lighting.

@Footygamer  anything on an issue with wrong scaled photos? I think it broke in some of latest updates.

Club logos and player faces are incorrectly scaled. The scaling on X axis depends on browser window width (why?), while scaling on Y is not changing.

Can you add a delay before the submenu popup is shown?
It creates a problem if you move the mouse from top to down (even if you move very fast), and you can't skip it - the popup is so big so it covers the entire screen.

You get a 404 page when clicking on a search result for person which is not present in FM21.

I must have missed them. Both are definite improvements, I'll make sure to add them to 13.07.

Hi.

Benzema is still not updated in 13.09

I have many problems with using “online database”.

Anyone else have same issues?

 

1)

Here's a club page from FM 19:

https://sortitoutsi.net/football-manager-2019/team/8101334/enppi-club

How can I switch it to FM 21 version? I see no any button or link for this.

 

2)

Here's a database update player profle:

https://sortitoutsi.net/football-manager-data-update/person/2000008435

How can I switch to regular profile page? Like this:

https://sortitoutsi.net/football-manager-2021/person/2000008435/mahmoud-gad

Also, that “Profile” button just re-opens current page?

 

Not related to database:

Clicking here opens the subforum, but not the thread:

Any idea why these faces were not updated with the version from September 2020?

I think pics are good cutted (in terms of quality).

@Footygamer 

Will it be possible to add a birth date after player age?

It will help to identify players because sometimes there are players with same name.

Duplicated files:

Strange names (there's more I guess):

Have you tried to pack files into rar or zip, without compression?
Currently it gives you 500 mb save on 19 GB.
Maybe without compression the extraction will be faster.

Why is it not possible to change FM version on club page?
Why there's no option to open original database player profile from data editor profile?

There are plenty of youngsters and wonderkids newly added to FM21 from major clubs who have had a face added in 13.01, and others who'll be added in 13.02 etc. Up to you to decide.

Hi, when 13.02 is expected?
