Possible FaceGen Project for Fictional Players (132k+ On The Making)

As a person who likes fictional league saves, I wanted immersion. I wanted to make my fictional league feel real, with players that look real. Sadly, I'm not satisfied with the faces generated in the game, but I have an idea that can remedy my problems, which might benefit you too!



Introducing the NewGAN Facepack of FM21, which will be a project of mine to turn the png's in the face pack into FG Files(These face images are AI-Generated, Nvidia's developed GAN's. THESE FACES ARE NOT REAL!!!). I know it will take a long time, with emphasis on the 132,000 faces. I have made more than a thousand FG Files just for my fictional league, and I even have repeats there. It took me weeks to make those, and it still lacks a bit more variety. With this project, it covers 14 ethnicities, which I still don't know how to apply in OOTP since there are only five options of ethnicities to choose from. I hope I get the help I need with this because I feel that this can be a game-changer for many fictional league fans, and also long-term save players.

Essential Pack 1: 1,400 starter faces; 100 each ethnicity

Expansion Pack 1: Currently 400 Additional faces, 300 Caucasian | 100 African | 100 South American

Thanks to the creators, Zealand, and company, for giving me permission to use their project for mine. Here is the link if you are interested in their project.

i would love to use this. I have over 500 real FG's I have to make for my league and i too am not a fan of many of the OOTP generated faces, especially for African Americans. I look forward to this.

I'm finally done with the first pack of the project. The next facepack will have more caucasian faces and a few other ethnicities. But for now, I don't have the time to make a thousand every week.

Thanks, I really need as much help as I need right now. I recently had my exams, so I didn't make a lot of progress this week. It depends on where you want to help, I have some pictures I would need help with, but I really need an easier way to make these facegens work in the game aside from manually applying the files. I really appreciate the recognition and the helping hand, looking forward to working with y'all!

Right now, Zealand's project only has male faces around the ages 20-30, and I heard if there is a women's expansion on FM they would likely do the same for female photos. What I can do right now is limited, since there are no faces available for women. But I really recommend you guys doing the same thing when generating women's pictures if you guys get the hang of it. It's the same process with their project, using GAN's. The only problem is the pool of pictures that you have to gather, you need thousands to get variety and high-quality photos.

But for now, I want to reach as many facegens people need before I make another project. Maybe ten thousand is a great number, probably rest after and make another ten thousand if I can. I hope that I can contribute to the community as much as I can because I benefit from this project too.

This is so great! Quick question. Looking at the files, they all are just numbered. What is the best way to import these files into my game? Don't you have to make the facegen file name the name of the player I want?

You can either copy the facegen file to the fg folder and rename it, or assign a facegen file in the game itself. For me, it's better to assign rather than to copy the file, saves a bit more space, and if you have around a thousand players, it can make a great difference. I simply assign a player with any available facegen that fits, and I use a log to know which ones are currently used.

I found a problem with assigning, though. It won't load when saved as a template. You can do the copy-rename method if you want to share it to others.

Just go to the player's profile > open editor > find the row that says player picture > import photofit file > and navigate the folders where the files are and select the facegen that you want. Hope this helps!

What i started doing was making a BB card to go with each FG, so when a new player comes up in the draft I can assign a face that is more fitting to his name and location. probably will never finish.

Fictional FaceGen Expansion Pack 1.1 [100 Caucasian Faces]

I'm back with an expansion pack! It's been a few weeks since the first release, I was bombarded with many projects so I had to stop for a while. I finally got the time to do a hundred files today. I have added 100 new caucasian faces, which makes up the total of 1500 faces for the whole project! For the next eight days, I'm going to make caucasian fg files, since most saves need more. After I'm done with a thousand caucasian faces, I'm open to suggestions of ethnicities that I should continue. Anyway, here's the link for the first expansion pack for this project.

You are doing the Lord's work with this project! It is a great enhancement to the mod community.

For the next set to work on, I'd echo The Game's suggestion to add in African-American facegens next

Thanks! Looks like I'm going to do African fg files tomorrow. But for now, I have made 100 new Caucasian fg files today. I want to make this a daily thing, so I hope that I get suggestions to meet what y'all need.

Here is the link to check the 100 new faces. It's been added in the expansion pack folder:

Hey again, I'm back! I'm finally done with school, so most likely for the next two months, I'll be making a pack every day. The ethnicity pack for today is Caucasian(N00301-N00400). Google Drive link has been updated, feel free to download the updated pack.

I've found a problem while making this, though. A lot of the faces look alike, especially with the dark-rounded eyes. Sadly, I can't fix it. Hopefully, after a few packs, I can select suitable FG files.

Then again, I thank you all for the support in this project! It has motivated me to contribute more until I finish Zealand's FM Facepack.

Can this be used for regular MLB leagues? I'd love to be able to use this for random players I create, and also for fictional players after real players aren't in the draft anymore or international FA's.

Definitely! In fact, that's one of the reasons I made this pack. The generated ones look bland and sometimes scary. Feel free to use it in both real and fictional leagues.
