Player Photos issue

[Darviathar]

I am replaying 1980's seasons and using real photos from a pack I downloaded from the mods section. I have disabled Facegen (it should not be necessary in my league, as every player has a picture), but I have a constant issue with player's photos being replaced with the team logo for no apparent reason, either "on the field" during games, or in the team leader section. The player clearly has a photo, and it can be accessed by clicking on his name, but the game seems to randomly quit using it. Any suggestions? I disabled road uniforms as well, but that did not help.

I have the exact REVERSE problem.

I want tojust use FaceGen, and have indicated as such in the settings, but photos keep showing up when I am playing the game.

That is annoying enough when the uniform in the photo is not from the current team, but it is REALLY annoying when you get a 50-year old manager photo for people in the prime of their career.

Please post these issues in the bug report thread. Thanks!

Seeing that autographed Donruss '83 Dave Stieb "Diamond King" card brings back some memories. I just wish he'd pitch better in my 80's seasons. He and Jack Morris seem to constantly underachieve for some reason.

Have you checked to see whether or not the box is checked or unchecked for player photo's? I've found that often times after you shut your game off and restart it, the box for photos will change on it's own and all of a sudden real pic's start to appear. This usually happens to newly formed league and once you uncheck the box the second time it stays that way.

Same problem here...I've already PT'd it , but only a couple of people are having this issue and Andreas can't reproduce it..
Here's what you need to do.
Go into your saved game's news\html\images\ and copy all the pics in the profile_pictures folder to the person_pictures folder. Then restart ootp and it should correct the problem.

You need to go into your saved game's news\html\imges\player_pictures folder and delete all the real player pics to solve your problem.
If not, then I suggest you move all the real pics in the photos folder to a subfolder..ootp won't use subfolders in the photos folder so you won't get real pics anymore.
