passenger58 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Hi, Great game this year. Loving the new features and looking forward to another year of FMM fun and games. With regards the new player regen faces/heads, is there any way to turn off this feature so we just get the standard silhouettes? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at present, I'll consider putting an option in as part of the update cycle at some point - but obviously during the initial updates we'll be looking at fixing crashes/bugs/issues rather than adding in new features (even if relatively minor). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. While I appreciate many have requested this feature and you've delivered on that, my personal view is that it ruins the game immersion a little bit. So an option to turn these off would be great. I'm pretty sure in the last FMM (or maybe the one before) you could turn off all player images - even the licensed ones - as a benefit to those with older devices. Correct me if I'm wrong on that.

To me they don't look photo realistic, so ruin the game immersion for me. If we can't have images that look like actual people, I'd rather not have any. There's also the thing of me playing as a Greek team and almost all my regens being blonde with blue eyes. Again, not very realistic. Having said that, I understand that this was a popular request so I'm probably in the minority. It'd just be good to have an option to turn them off for those that can do without them.

Regen faces are only displayed for players who aren't 'real' for unlicenced real players they won't be displayed (look at some grey players if you want to see them quickly).

Passmore610 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I'd much prefer the standard silhouettes too, the cartoon faces really take away from the realism. Any idea when the option to turn them off would be implemented? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick question - will this config apply to existing save games or just new ones started post-update? In other words, if I have a few season's worth of regens in my existing save game, will I be able to remove their regen faces? I have one that looks like Boris Johnson and I just can't take him seriously. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

codyghind Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Hello, any updates on this? Seriously, these regen avatars look hilariously bad. We don't expect desktop FM quality, that's why we just requested the simple feature of being able to replace regen avatars with the default silhouette.

You should fine an option to turn off the images in the last update (its in preferences). Incidentally the images are from the FM desktop game generator ... weirdly enough ... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
