Jo man keep cool! I don't have any contact to Ariel so how can i ask him???

KING BOB, do u have msn maybe?
@Youri, no problem mate, when your connection will be allright give me a sign

The files from hidden faces were already in zdata_04.big, then Ariel just gave face id to those players in the data file. Of course he edited it with HEX editor. Hercules also knows how to do it and maybe some others guys know it too

but in the demo, legrottigle (sp?) and kaladze didnt have specific faces, yet people were able to add them into zdata04.big weren't they?

 

[c0bain]

And what about kit raptor ? when will release ?

 

[big al]

dammit EA ; where is CC

 

[big al]

or maybe the guys from fifa french touch can fid a way to this dilema; they known because they made FCDB 2003; a program in my opinion wa better than CC 2003.

no, king bobs leggrotaglie just replaced his generic face. he didn't give him a new face ID what seems to be our problem.

after some time to think about it I need to say that this is probably the most stupid thing that EA Sports could have done. I mean it's the first time I play fifa and the gameplay is just great and really enjoyable. but instead of making a good game about it they simply let the community down.
They made an interface you can hardly use with a mouse because it's so damn slow and inaccurate.
They messed up the great option to have the lower leagues and carrer mode by reducing it to 5 years only.
Not to mention that there are not even standart touraments like world cup, or the euro cups.
They brought out a "patch", that wasn't a help at all for most of the people.

And now this! I mean they new about the community and the great tools and patches, faces and kits that are made here. This community is not a harm to EA. It just makes the game way more attractive to the user. If I didn't knew about soccergaming and other boards I'd probably have stopped playing FIFA 2003 after 2 or 3 months because it just gets boring. But with the help of the community there have always been new aspects that made it fun again, even if it was just a new face.
What I want to say is: EA Sports should be thankful that there is such a community and try to support us here instead of making it harder for the editors every new year.

no, giving face ids cannot be the problem, or else the unlocked faces patch wouldnt be possible

wait - just been reading ariels comments
'I mean you can add new files to .big files but the game will not recognize them. So if you add a new face with a new ID the game will not take care and will ignore it. So with Face Raptor you will be able to reassign faces to different players but not add new ones. '

hmm - how many generic faces are there?

and how do we get EA to release a tiny patch to fix this, it wouldnt take that much effort

 

[cyrex]

RA-D, please read the whole thread... THE HIDDEN faces were unlocked because they were in FIFA FILES... Understood? Ariel has only edited the files in hex and added the faces to correct players. Remember all: Hidden Faces were in the game files

 

[RA-D]

no, I got that - i thought the other guy didnt. never mind

i just thought people had added to the face files in the demo, which im told they didnt

 

[Duong]

**** !!!!!!!!!!!
EA may kill all facemakers like us !!!!!
Damn EA.....

 

[Duong]

All the things we can do now is wait for CC. Please EA, Please make a good CC where we can change player name, assign player ID, player face number... and please Ariel, you are a FIFA editor God, please do something

 

[vogel]

may be EA have inserted a check of BIG file's lenght or other protection of this type in the executable of the game... If you know a great patcher / hacker it's the time to ask him help

I hope someone will find the way to circumvent this f...... limitation

Another of my FIFA 2004 prediction comes true . . . After the individual teeth, I predicted long time ago that EA will make it harder for us to edit the game, and they will release various big patches for us to download just to edit the game.

But then again, we can always count on our "lovely" great hacker Hrvoje Bajlo . . .

If EA dosent let us customise our fifa, then they better make the game alot better then it is now, the havent even got the skin color right on some players, I really dont think that fifa2004 is good work, and with out custom made graphics, i'll never gonna spend a singel cent on an EA product again.

 

[tom_barman]

I just bought TCM 2004 (yeah they made me do it...) and there goes another hope: The editor seems pretty huge and powerful but you can NOT import faces with new id's and you can NOT create new players.
then if you want to change a generic player's look you can choose from about 7 faces each ethnicity and about 7 hairstyles. so this is for the guys who wonder why all the players look the same (like in fifa 97)...
damn

anyway, I'm going to play PES3 now (which is not important cause EA doesn't care if we play their games they care for us to buy the, which I did and which makes me look like a fool now. damn they got me)

Just a question from a n00b in this matter:

How did Ariel assign fifa 2003 faces? I almost can't believe that EA make it worser then a year before. eversince I was buying fifa there was always an improvement now EA make it worser then in Fifa 2003. I just can't believe that
