Football Manager 2017 Features Revealed

[Zac]

I don't know about creating players. I'm sure there is, but someone else can answer for sure or not.
EDIT: Looks like you can, but you have to use the editor, its not an in game feature.

But yes, you can disable the first transfer window when you start a new save.

Thanks, I'll try that when I get home tonight.

What folder do you have it in? I've seen two different answers.

One said to just put it in Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 17\graphics, and another said to create a "facepacks" folder in the graphics folder, and put it in there.

I have mine in the same folder I had for 16. Documents>Sports Interactive>Football Manager 17>Graphics>Faces

I also have another folder in the Graphics folder called Iconfaces with the smaller ones.

But even with this mega pack of cutout faces (like 170K images), I still see many silhouettes. Maybe this is because of missing the regen face/hair mod?

Is anyone else seeing a large amount of goals being scored from the ball bouncing off the keeper and into the net?

How many nations do you all usually load? I am looking to play in Europe (thinking of starting with a Segunda Division B team (Toledo, perhaps), but I am not sure yet).

I give up on getting the face pack to work, man.

I have it in the exact same folder that I have the logos in.

I can take the logos out of that folder, reload the skin, it goes back to the generic logos. Put the logo folder back in, reload the skin, and the logos come back, but I can't get the faces to load for the life of me.

Oh well, I can live with no faces...

What facepack were you using, anyways? I don't think I ever bothered to install one last year because of how huge the download files were for it.

The cutout facepack from sortitoutsi. Tried downloading the entire new facepack, and just downloading the update, adding it to my existing one, and copying it over. No dice.
