facegen and players weight

edm · 06-05-2016, 06:35 AM

I would like to see an option under settings to disable a players weight having an affect on their facegen picture.

I know it might not seem like a big deal, but for real life and historical players who are already created as the look, the game can make their facegen look extremely bloated if they're above 200 lbs.

There are ways to create the FG for players like Prince Fielder so they dont get the NBA Jam head.

I've tried changing the size of the head in the fg mod, and while that helps, it still looks distorted for me in game.

Who is the player?

here's a screen shot of Jerad Eickhoff I did, who's listed at 245 ibs.

the left is how he exports from facegen, the middle's how he looks in game at his normal weight. and the right is if I lower his weight to 200, which is the closest to how he really looks.

When ever I've tried making the face extra slim in facegen, so it would auto correct in game, it causes something else to look distorted in game. Either the head ends up looking elongated, or their chin is giant, etc.

do you have any more info on how to do this?

I tried using the "face - heavy / light" slider before exporting the facegen. But that doesn't seem to affect the way a face looks in ootp.

One thing you can do if you have teh FG program is to cut corners a bit go in on the temples and cheeks a bit. i do this with Prince Fielder so he doesn't get NBA Jam head. Also if it is the default FG I think it might be outdated.
Try this one but I have a feeling its gonna get big headed.

Thanks. Appreciate the tips. Will give them a try.

I think having a way to disable weight for facegen would still be a good addition though.
