Facepack problems on Win 8.1

I recently purchased a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 with Windows 8.1. I'm biding my time with EHM until FHM matures a little bit more. I was able to get EHM 2007 to work without too much trouble... had to contact eLicense to be able to re-install and had the msvcr71.dll error that I was able to get past.

I'm using the [2013-14] TBL Rosters v6.1 (no CSD Patch) and everything is working fine with the exception that I cannot get any of the player pictures to load... I only have the default graphics. It was years ago, and serveral versions of Windows ago, where I was able to get the player pictures to appear in-game. Other than extracting the pictures into the .../players/ directory, is there something else I'm missing or forgetting?

Also, which utility could I use to change the league association for a team's minor league affiliates? I play as the Flyers and it lists 2 ECHL affiliates, when one of them should be in the AHL. I'm guessing I would want to make any change before playing/using that database at all... to late to update this after playing a couple months into the game, yes?

Thank you for your help/assistance/advice.

Regards,
Mark

Have you checked a player picture DOB to see if it's the same as in-game?

PreGame Editor http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... =88&t=6745 You need to keep the number of teams in a playable league the same, so you'll want to not only move a Flyer ECHL affiliate into the AHL, but you'll need to move an AHL team into the ECHL too

Thanks... I'll check the player picture DOB.

Good to know about moving the AHL and ECHL teams... thanks for the help!

Thanks Nino, DOB was the problem with the player pictures. Once I switched to the patched rosters, the pictures showed up.

I also used the pregame editor to switch teams between the AHL and ECHL and used the ArtMoney patch... everything works like a charm, and I'm happy. :-)
