I downloaded this 'fix', and I thought I followed the directions correctly, but I can't seem to get it to work: http://www.footballmanagerstory.com/...eal-names-fix/ Maybe I just need to restart my computer or something. I hope to get started with a save tomorrow after work.

It doesn't look like that's the fix totally, I downloaded the one from sortitout and it's working just fine.

This is the one you want.

So I started over after messing around. And I Archer-fied my created manager using the new import image option. So, you know, messing around some more.

I used this image:

And got this result:

LOL, that nose.

I kind of like it. The possibilities with this 2005-ish EA face scan tech are endless.

The in game thumb looks way better, but still nothing like the image:

It's time for my yearly struggle getting player faces to load, lol.

Got the logos loaded, but the faces didn't. Have them in the same graphics file.

I'll play around with it later tonight and see if there was just something obvious I did wrong last night. But at least I got the logos loaded. I could play it without player faces, but not having the logos would drive me insane haha

So now I'm starting unemployed and will take over Arsenal in 2017 when Wenger retires.

Did you send them a bug report for this problem?

For some reason I had to clear the cache twice and reload the skin twice for them to work for me.

Couple questions...

Can you create players in FM?

Can you turn off the 'first' transfer window (like FIFA)?
