Force Loading Player Photos

[Salathor]

I'm having issues with real player photos loading consistently (I'm using one of the epic player photo packs). The game can find the photos, usually, but on occasional start ups only half the players will have faces and the others will be blank.

When I switch teams (commissioner mode) or manage other games, frequently 75%+ of the entire teams will not have faces. When I pull up the player pictures folder, those players do not have player_id named images--for some reason, the game doesn't seem to be TRYING to look in the photos folder for them.

It seems like maybe there are certain points where it tries to load player images and it just won't even look if I switch teams at a later point. (I'm assuming it searches for your team on game creation and then maybe checks for other team players when they play you, so if you swap teams it just doesn't create the images for the other players). Is there a way to force the game to find images for all players in a game?

I'm playing a 2023 historic replay and I know that most of these images ARE in the correct folder.

Here is a sample of what I'm talking about. In other games on this same computer, pictures of players like Jurickson Profar will load. But in this game, for some reason, it is not trying to find player photos for so many of the team members.
