Come on ye pars Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Right I'm giving this another go. I have the pack for fm13 so I only have to download the changes, is that right? Do I then have to copy the pics from my fm13 folder to the fm14 folder? Do all the pics need to be in one folder? And do I have to download the torrent file and if so where to? Sorry if this is a daft question if the answer is yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if this is a daft question if the answer is yes. Depending if you downloaded any of the 5.x updates, you'd have to download the 5.01 to 5.10 updates, the 6.0 update pack and the upcoming 6.01 update pack to be fully up-to-date. In the meantime you can safely move your FM13 folder into your FM14 folder. All the pics need to be in one folder, and one folder only. You can elect to download the torrent file to ensure you get the full file and not mess about with downloading the packs separately, the choice is entirely yours...

Mons Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 can someone upload the file somewhere for everyone to grab easily? uploaded, netload or 4shared would be ideal It's a 6GB+ file - if you have any ideas of a free hosting site which accepts files that large, do let us know. Alternately, you can download the torrent file to get this pack. Pretty much this ?Are you guys planning on putting it on the workshop ? First of all, I have no idea how Steam Workshop works so we'd have to check that our first. Secondly, I understand uploads on there are limited to 200MB, which is nowhere near enough for this file... How do I know which pack I am up to? I downloaded this a few years ago and would like to build upon what I've already downloaded but have no idea which one I got up to before. Look at the date modified of the config.xml file in your megapack folder, and try to approximate it to a release date on one of the update packs in previous versions on this page. To be honest, if it's been such a long time since you updated your pack, I'd advise you to download the torrent and this way make sure you are fully up-to-date, instead of downloading and applying 10, 20 or more update packs separately...

My only hope is that it speeds up eventually lol. I guess the only thing to do would be to try become a "Premium member" and get it quicker that way.

The problem with the torrent file is that once people download it, they stop seeding it, which is not really fair on other people who would like to get their hands on it, like you. There's sadly not much I can do about that As regarding premium membership, it's best to ask our site admin Rob on sortitoutsi (registration is free) as I don't really take care of that side of things...

However, right now, my match engine seems to stutter very badly at times while watching the match in 3d. I'm using NVidia GeForce 765m gtx 2gb for my graphic card. After encountering the problem, i've set the graphics quality preference to be determined by pc. But, the problem is not resolved. I tried to clear the cache from AppData/Roaming folder, but nothing to be found in the folder. For now, i'm at lost as to what to do next. Did anyone encountered the same problem..?

Every single graphic addon is showing up perfectly - it is only SI's original images that have disappeared. If you're using our pack, then the images therein will naturally be displayed instead of SI's original images. Ive used this pack for many years, and always been very impressed. However quite a lot of the images are outdated compared to the default FM14 faces.Is there a way of just using the faces that are not available by default on FM14. In other words, just fill in the blanks? It has always been our intention to include the best cut-outs in our megapack, irrespective of how recent they are. I really don't see the point in including an image inferior to the current megapack cut-out, just because the player has this season's kit. Naturally, we endeavour to update the megapack as much as humanly possible and in cases where there has been a major change in facial hair or hair-style and which are drawn to our attention, they will most likely replace the previous image once they are cut out. If you want to use SI's default images, then you can extract them with the resource archiver, rename the filename to the person's UID (this can be done automatically using fmXML) and replace the current megapack images. It's a big pity that the cutters which SI use generally produce cut-outs which are relatively poorer than ours, with lots of snow, missing ears etc. I haven't had time to check this year's so they might have improved dramatically for all I know. If there's any particular images you want use to change in the megapack, you are welcome to visit our forum on sortitoutsi and request them according to our rules Can someone please explain to me the step by step like you've done here for windows for a Mac please ???

Both players you mention are in the megapack and are in the config, so either you have a very old version of the MP or you're doing something terribly wrong.
