Old version you could have a photo pack with both numbered and named photos
mixed in the same folder ie...
player_1234.jpg and
Joe_Ballplayer.jpg.

When the game went to get a photo for a player it would first search for one with a name. If it found a named photo is used it, if it did not find a named photo it would then look for a numbered one. This allows you to use real player photo packs and numbered photos for fictional players that come into the league as the years go by.

In my case I used Mark Prior as an example though I have more than just him with the problem. In my folder I have a photo named "Mark_Prior.jpg" that was showing up in the game. I then added numbered photos into the game so everyone could have a photo, I did not overwrite or remove the named Prior picture.

Now when I open Prior's card I get a photo that is not him but from the numbered set. So, what I believe is happening is the photo he has now matches his player ID #..

Mark Prior has a player ID#..." player_1234"
there is a photo named ......."Mark_Prior.jpg"
and a photo numbered ........."player_1234.jpg"

The game should find and use the "Mark_Prior.jpg" before searching for the numbered "player_1234.jpg". Unfortunatly it appears it is now using the numbered photo even if a named one is available.

Hope that longer explanation makes it clear.

Thanks for responding to my issue Marc.
