I just patched to 11.2.17.

My current favorite league is a 2010 MLB quickstart that is now getting ready for the 2021 season. It has a mixture of veteran "real" players and a lot of younger players who are fictional. I used facegen for all the players' pictures, so they're all "fictional" pictures.

When I first patched the game, I was also missing the options for changing facial hair, ethnicity, etc.--even for fictional guys who broke in several years after the dynasty began.

I used this work-around, which DreamTeams described in another post:

"You can still add facial hair. After you import the fg file, go and change the team's uniform. Then go back to the player and all the options are there. Strange. "

All I did was change the stripes on the team's jersey, and shazzam! All the options appeared. Then I went back and undid the change, so the unis look the same.

Now I can add and take away beards all day long if I want. Yeah, it's a work-around, but it's a simple one.

I just noticed this only works for a fictional player. I just tried it for Rick Porcello, a "real" player with a fictional picture. Even after I tweaked Rick's Diamondbacks uni, I still don't have the options. All the completely fictional D-backs are changeable, however.
