need a help with player pictures

Post by lgun396 »

hi, i am totally so new ehm player, and i got a question
(ive been looking for posts about my questions, but couldnt find. sorry)

i downloaded the 'manimal' roster patch, and i also downloaded a mega face pack,
but i dun know how to use it.

megapack is png file, and as i looked up that 'date/pictures/players' , they are ehg files.

do i have to just delete ehg files, then add png files in the pictures folder??



and also i started a new game with loading 'minimal roster'
then i see all the players are without their pictures.

so i dont know how to add new pictures and how to load them with playing new game.

Hi, lgun!

The game finds the correct player picture if they are named according to the player in the database. So if you want John Johnson, who is born February 1st 1990 to show up, you need a picture in the player pictures folder named john_johnson_1_2_1990.

So check your file names. They may have a different birth date than the players in your roster.

Also: .ehg files have priority over .png files. So if you have a photo of John Johnson in .ehg and .png, the .ehg-one will show up. To get your .png-files to show up, you need to delete your .ehg pictures, or move them elsewhere.
