Don’t want to use a face pack… but?

[Stuniverse]

Hello,

I don’t want to download a full face pack, as I’m happy with the default FM23, but is there any way I can upload and use photos of players in the team I’m managing (that don’t have photos in-game) without using a face pack?

Many thanks.

You can download individual images from sortitout. Type in the name or ID of the player you want and there will most likely be a cut out image of the player.

To get an idea of how configs work (your new folder of images will need a config file) and where to put your collection of images, I’d suggest downloading a smaller pack and copying the config from it. Then edit the config (delete all lines of code you don’t need) to be suitable for your own collection of images.

Thanks, @Tyburn.

Do I create a new folder in Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2023 > new folder > and drop the photos and config file into it?

What should I call the folder?

If you follow the instructions for any of the face packs you can download it’ll show you, but yes, create a new folder called anything really, faces i guess, and put it in the graphics folder.

Here is an example config file. Just change the numbers to represent the ones you want. Put this config into a folder that has the images. Call the folder "faces", or whatever you want (as above)

Put it in documents/si/fm23/graphics

Create a "graphics" folder if you don't already have one.

Remember to untick use caching in preferences, clear the cache (icon bottom left in preferences) then reload the skin.
