Player pictures gone?

camly · 11-01-2016, 10:05 PM

In one of my leagues, all of the generated player pictures suddenly disappeared without warning. I went into settings and forced the game to update photos or create new ones for each player, but nothing changed. Has anyone else had this problem?

Yes. The smaller in-game pictures often disappear for me. If you go to the player page > editor > pictures functions and select > same picture it always comes back.

It can also happen if you update uniforms.

I have never had it happen to me with the main player profile picture though.

I tried both of those and neither worked :/

I think the game is trying to put historical photo files in the place of the player picture where applicable. Here are some pictures.

But it doesn't work for every player with the same name as a major leaguer.

Here are some photos of autogenerated baseball cards that highlight what has happened.

Now that I think I know what is causing it, does anyone have any suggestions?

Are you on a PC or a Mac? I ask because I had a problem with Facegens disappearing on my Mac, and there was a specific drop-down menu to change that cleared up my problem straight away.

If you're on a Mac, you might be having the same problem.

I'm on a Mac. I forced the game to crash, and when I opened it back up, everything was fixed.
