Re: Madden NFL 22 Patch #2 Available - Gameplay Tuning, NFL Authenticity Updates & Mo

I haven’t been able to edit and keep the player picture. At first I was able to edit and keep that player’s likeness on the field. In other words, editing wasn’t auto generating generic player model for the face. Now it’s hit or miss. Sometimes the player likeness stays and picture totally disappears, or it changes and picture changes to computer generated one. Wish they just didn’t mess with this.

Yeah I agree they made this change for no reason at all.

having said that knight what I've started to do since I'm creating classic rosters only is rate the players and change just the 1st name.

The game only changes the picture once you edit the last name.

So for example Larry Allen I found a good picture for him using an existing player

I rated Allen then on the profile his name will appear like this
First Name: Larry Allen
Last Name: Watson (last name of the original player I edited over)

Main menu name will appear Larry Allen Watkins

Do it that way and you keep the Player pic. Go into CFM mode once your done editing your entire roster and then you can remove the players last name.

That's the only way to edit the names from the main menu and save the face.

In CFM you can edit the names and the face sticks but most people edit Classic rosters outside of franchise mode 1st.

I will release the rosters once done and then anyone wishing to play with the rosters inside CFM just have to replace the last name.

If they don't care about CFM all they will have to do is edit the last name of the players pic will change to a generic face and just play.

Usually I'll assign the key players on each team a real Pic that is a close match so it won't be much work to do if anyone wants to change the last name later.

If you used the Preseason Week 1 start point for Franchise I am pretty sure that rookies missing portraits is expected; that’s how the game shipped. Many rookie portraits were added in a subsequent roster update.

If you import the latest roster update into Franchise at creation time, that fixes the issue. Going to guess that the Week 1 start point which will be available this week will also fix the issue.

But does changing a number or position remove the photo? In previous Maddens only changing the name did, so I assume not, but would prefer some confirmation on that.

No changing the number doesn’t change their picture. I tried it with Davante Adams. At least not in exhibition.

The question for me is was this intentional by EA or just a glitch. It could be the players who whined about it and forced the change, but hopefully it’s a glitch that gets fixed. At one point when I was editing, the player’s head inside the player model turned into a silver dummy head, and I saw this graphics glitch in Madden 13 too. Rosters should be shareable between PS4 and 5 too, or Xbox prev gen and current. One more hurdle.

I edited Patriots CB J.C. Jackson (who does not have a head scan) from #27 to #25 in my playground cloud Franchise and he kept his player portrait.

I also edited Patriots CB Stephon Gilmore from #24 to #22 in the same cloud Franchise and he kept both his portrait and his head scan.

I think we're good.
