pauliowigs Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I know this is a re-post becasue I saw this issue before! But i now can't find whoever posted this issue! Basically in my FM game my regen players faces change. Sometimes they have long hair and sometimes short, sometimes different colour hair this kind of thing. I noticed a guy report this previously when browsing but i can't find hes thread anywhere to see if he got a reply. Is anyone else encounterng this? I am patched, and started this game after the release patch. Is it a setting that can be changed or a corrupted save? is there anything I can do. I'm in the blue square prem and some of my first teamers are regens. I may also post this in the bugs forum...but any help would be appreciated!

r0x0r Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 If it's hair colour / style and smiling / sad that's intentional. So long as skin colour, facial structure, etc isn't changing. After all, players cut and dye their hair :-p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone else get this. I'm not aware that this is a feature..... but i'll stand corrected if it is. Anyone else care to comment? It appears to me that they are just new faces each time. Skin colour never changes, but im in england and they are english/scottis regens, and the game doesnt seem to give many black regens to these countries anyway.

the toon Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Is there a way to 'turn off' their faces obviously not, but i wish that there wouldnt be any pictures instead of an 'artificial' one, they just look so stupid. It looks like all the regens comes from the same, multiracial family. And that they're all related to alan smith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ainu Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hairstyles tend to change a bit TOO frequently, this could be toned down in the next patch. But it is indeed intentional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5pur5 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 From my experience its just the hair styles and expressions that change. Got a few quality regens and they always change their haircuts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tansrb Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 imo i really like this feature... doesn really make it realistic for a player to have a single hairstyle throughout his entire career right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pauliowigs Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 ok fair enough, this must have slipped under my radar! I would really like this toned down a bit too. My players hair changed radically at least 3 times a season. And they all seem to change on the same day. And it goes from from short and blonde to long and black, that kind of thing. Maybe they could be limited to one change a season and some players never change or change once every few years? It seems odd to dramatically change your hairs length and colour every couple of months. Maybe even odder as i'm a part-time blue square team so i'm hardly dealing with premadonna's! But thanks for the info - can't believe i didnt cotton on to this as a feature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauliowigs Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 A further thought is that a player who started with brown hair and hanges to long and black - there is no graphical representation of this in the engine (from what i can make out...) Does this devalue the whoole things as players don't look like the pictorial representation in there profile. Lets face it, hair colour and length is the most distinguishable feature on players in the 3d match engine. Just a thought.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrari312 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've yet to play with regens in my team (not that far in) - I would have assumed that players' skin and hair colour for regens would be linked between the facegen pic and in the 3D engine? Shame if not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like all the regens comes from the same, multiracial family. And that they're all related to alan smith Yes you can turn them off. Go to Preferences > Display & Sound > Show Player and Staff Pictures. You can choose from "None", "Real Pictures Only", "Real and Generated Pictures". I've yet to play with regens in my team (not that far in) - I would have assumed that players' skin and hair colour for regens would be linked between the facegen pic and in the 3D engine? Shame if not. Yes their appearance in the 3D match reflects their facegen picture (skin/hair colour). A further thought is that a player who started with brown hair and hanges to long and black - there is no graphical representation of this in the engine (from what i can make out...) Does this devalue the whoole things as players don't look like the pictorial representation in there profile. Lets face it, hair colour and length is the most distinguishable feature on players in the 3d match engine.Just a thought.. But I don't think it goes as far as changing hair length, and I've yet to encounter a regen who changes his hair colour, so I can't comment on that.

Tyler42 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've noticed a player I have from Egypt (Regen) has had the same hair style for 6 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACMilanBRA Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 The regens hair and expressions change based in their current morale, but i have a issue with 2 players having different faces, but i reloaded the game and it fixed the problem.

BamaToon Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I turned the pictures off after changing faces and "floating hair invisible face" regens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 On a slightly different note I've noticed that a fair few regens in my game no longer have faces, only hair! This includes my quality regen striker, who had a face when I signed him but now there is just a floating piece of hair and nothing else. Has anyone else experienced this, or know of a solution? EDIT: Damn, BamaToon posted as I was writing mentioning the same issue. Is this a well known problem then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
