Once again, this is a PITA!!! I wish you guys would make a sticky Thread with specific and exact instructions in how to get FaceGen, Logos, Jersey's etc into the Game. Also please provide accurate download links.
This is such a hassle trying to get good graphics in the Game. Your customers don't want to spend hours screwing around with this stuff!!!! Thank you.

Well we can't provide accurate download links. The mods are all user made, we can't provide them ourselves due to licensing issues. All of that is left up to whoever makes the files, it's nothing to do with us.
That being said, if the options are greyed out and the game doesn't auto generate any faces like you mentioned a few posts back, then something must be off because those are signs of facegen not being enabled. You won't be able to manually load the .fg files if facegen's off which is what it really sounds like is happening.
As far as how to do this, here's some specific instructions on getting the logos and unis loaded in game:
Go to your main FHM folder and find the 'quickstart_games' You'll see 4 more folders there. Open the one that represents the game type you want to play.
So for Path To Glory with Opening Day rosters, you'd select 'OpeningDay.quick'
Open that folder, then open the 'graphics' folder.
Then copy the unis, helmets and logos into their respective folders.
You can do this same step in each of the four folders in the quickstart games folder (f.e. for historical games get a historical logo/uni pack and install it in the folder) and then the custom graphics will automatically show up anytime you start a new game.
If you want them to show up in a game you already started then you'll have to go to the saved_games folder and open you saved game. Then follow the same instructions as above. Open the graphics folder and then copy each graphic type into it's specified folder.
Hope that helps. If it's unclear or your need more info, just let me know and I'll do what I can.
