How to use csv player files

Apologies if this has been posted somewhere, as it seems like simple question, but I could not find it if it was.

So I am pretty new and am trying to use a player roster/table/file I download which is a csv file (All the ones I found were), however, when I try to start a new game, and select "alternate player file" it seems to want a .fdt file.

How do I get the csv player files to work?

Included with FOF is an application that will convert CSV files into Roster FDT files. Look for PlayerFile.exe in your game folder.

Would you happen to know the path to find the converter? For the life of me I just can't see where to find the path to this file along with where to add custom team logos. The folder that I've found doesn't reference these files.

The Playerfile generator is in the main folder of the game. Instructions are in the file as well.

Through steam it would be something like:

Steam -> steamapps -> common -> Front Office Football Eight

Pictures goes in the Pictures folder in the same directory.

Look at the picture already there to see which city the file is representing. Pictures follows cities and not teams.

That's it! Totally forgot to navigate through the Steam folder. Thanks
