Like so many that just download the pack, the version of the game I installed it on as has no facegen appearing in-game. That to me is equivalent to "none" and, given I have a facegen (and am happy to share it) that is labeled properly and I like, that's where I stop worrying about that file/ballplayer and move on to the next.

For every one I am posting here and on the main CU thread, I'm also moving it to the side and putting it in a separate folder on my desktop. That's how the process and time sharing is valuable to me too - it forces me to look at every facegen in my collection, evaluate it and tweak it before posting it and to do any that are missing. It is also valuable in that, in the end, that far, far away end, I'll have left behind all the dead files and duplicate files (same file different naming convention).

As of now, between the other thread and here, I've done/reviewed 433 files or 1.95% of the total MLB players (from 1875-2020). Admittedly the review only takes my satisfaction with it in to account before I tuck it away into my side folder... but that's something.

I'll worry about chronicling my minors, *** and others later...
A fantastic achievement bud. Personally, having the checklist now allows / forces me to tighten my own process in this regard. Now every new FG gets checked off and the ID checked and amended where needed. With as many saves as I do going on it's essential to do this if I want the correct FGs to be showing up.

Thanks for all your work - past, present and future.
