I would quickly add that when you copy the pack's files over into the existing fg_files folder, you'll probably get prompted about whether you want to replace files. It's probably a good idea to say yes to that as I've done facegens for a couple hundred live players as part of the pack, and there are some very noticeable improvements, for example:

Glad you guys like it.

Thank you for creating these facegens. It definitely adds to the fun factor of the game.
I'm still in OOTP 20. About half of the facegens auto-populate for me after following the instructions in this thread. The rest I have to manually edit the individual players to get them to show up. This is true whether I'm in an existing game and try the update function on the logo/jersey screen, or if I am creating a new game. I've noticed the players that do not populate are ones that have a blank minor league ID field. Is there something else I should be doing to get these to work or will have to keep manually adding them as long as I am in 20? Thanks for your help. |

They actually should populate through the old naming conversion.
Give me a couple examples of players that weren't for you and I'll experiment on it |

If a player doesn't have a historic minors ID in game, the game next looks for a file in the First_Last format. The issue is that a lot of players in the mod pack only have a First_Last formatted facegen file if they were in perfect team. I believe that what I worked out with the developers should have the historic minors ID format populating in all league set ups. Is your league, by chance, an older one? I know the field didn't always populate on OOTP 20 or in the OOTP 21 beta builds.

I tried both older leagues and creating new leagues. This afternoon, I deleted the fg_files folder and redownloaded the facegen pack, and then created a new historical league (1977). For the Cardinals active roster, 21 of the 28 players did not auto-select facegens: Tony Scott Garry Templeton Bake McBride Ken Reitz Jerry Mumphrey Mike Tyson Dave Rader Roger Freed Jerry DaVanon Taylor Duncan Hector Cruz Mike A Anderson John Denny Eric Rasmussen Bob Forsch Doug Capilla John Urrea Buddy Schultz John Sutton Pete Falcone John D’Acquisto The players on the list I spot-checked did not have historical minors IDs. I can go to picture functions and manually import their facegens. Running the "update this team's pictures now" function from the logo/jersey screen did not result in any of the facegens appearing.

Gotcha. Thanks for looking into this.
I play primarily historical (70s and 80s are the most nostalgic for me ), although I do a number of random rookies (all eras) and fictional as well. |

At this point, I don't really know what went wrong, but it appears to have been some kind of issue with league creation for those players, rather than something on our end with the facegen pack. Edit: All players marked as "Needs to be Fixed" on the above list are now fixed for the next update. Bear with me on the historical guys. They will be fixed eventually, but there are hundreds of players that we used the wrong ID for due to roster errors so it will take time. Last edited by FancySkunk; 03-31-2020 at 10:18 PM. |

Thanks, FancySkunk.
Is it possible that my historical DB may be out of sync? Over the last few months, I've submitted reports of about a dozen players that are the wrong skin color (e.g., Don Baylor listed as Caucasian instead of African), and Spritze indicated he fixed them, but those fixes have never shown up for me. I still have to manually fix them when I create new saves. I currently play OOTP 20 downloaded through Steam. |

There has been a ton of updates to the DBs that are used since then. It could just be an issue with the DB for 20

Oh yeah...I totally forgot about Big Dave!! He was my favorite player as a kid and I started my saved game with the 1981 Yankees, so I saw that too. I had a good laugh at that. His FaceGen is so right on the money which made me psyched.

So, ok... While searching for another player, I found out that Tracy McGrady of the NBA pitched a few innings for the Sugar Land Skeeters. I created a FaceGen for him

While we're one the subject of players with FaceGens of the wrong race, this is not exactly newly-minted Hall of Famer Harold Baines.
