Replacing Generated Faces

[PartyPooperX]

Hi, I dont know if im posting in the right forum but i have difficulties replacing the generated faces with created faces from the community. I have CM5 and Revolution Mod installed and tried replacing the face for Emre Can, I succesfully added it with CM5 and then put the line "assignPlayerFace(208333)" in the player's lua file. Somehow nothing changed in game.. Emre Can still has its old generated face.

Is there someone who can help me with this? I would be gratefull.

you need to regerate. you should have asked in the revolution mod thread, or better yet, you should have read how to use it, in that thread, instead of making a whole new thread

I have read how to use it and followed the instructions somehow it didnt worked for me so thats why im asking... This may not be a Revolution mod problem so I didnt know if I should replied there my apologies then. I already regenerated with both CM15 and i68controller like it said on the instructions but yet the player still has its regenerated face =/

If you have a previous squad save file in your docs folder, the game will read that and not your new edits.

This might be a good place to post this as well..



I was wondering why my created players face isn't generated anymore as a mini face.

I remember when I first installed FIFA 15, and would start a new player career ( as a created player ) it would always generate a mini face for him. Now it just shows up as blank. I did a fresh install of FIFA and the same thing happeend. Any help would be appreciated. THanks

Sorry for sounding dumb but which exact file in the mydocuments/fifa15 folder should I delete? I already tried deleting all the files in mydocuments/fifa15/0/ afterwards I had to create a new profile on Fifa 15 again and stil saw Emre Can and other players which I edited still with the old generated face. I tried changing a ea-created face like Sterling and changed its hairstyle and texture from the community and it worked yet editing a generated face wont work.

Don't delete your settings file otherwise you have to create a new settings file every time. Create a settings file, then before you edit any players, save a copy of the settings file so you can quickly re-install it in your docs folder if you need to. Squad saves appear in the docs folder as well, meaning you can't tell which is the squad save and which is the settings save.

I'm not clear on your terminology here. What is a "generated" face? If you mean generic face, editing generic faces in CM 15 does work, I've been doing it for a month. And if the problem isn't with the save files in your docs folder, I really don't know what to suggest. You could be doing a dozen things wrong that are causing the issue.

Whatever you do, always test to make sure your edits stick, before you exit CM 15. It can save you a ton of time AND it is the first step in trouble-shooting whatever issue you're having:

1. edit a player
2. save
3. load another player
4. load your edited player again to see if your edits stuck

If your edits didn't stick, you know the problem is with your editing. If the edits stuck, you know the issue is something else.

Yeah I mean generic face im not familiar with the terms yet and english isnt my first language, sorry. And I agree with you I really dont know what im doing wrong? I edit sterling for example who already has a face in CM15 and the changes work he has different hair style and face texture ingame.. But if I edit a generic face to a new one -> I really see no changes ingame, he still has a generic face. I already did what you said.

1. Open CM15.
2. edit Emre Can and add real face
3. Load another player.
4. Load emre can again and I see his face is edited.
5. even when I save and re-open CM15, Emre Can face is edited.

Somehow the edit wont stick ingame..he still has a generic face im clueless.. if i open cm15 emre can has the new edited face but ingame he has a generic face. And I already regenerated with CM15 and i68controller like I said + assigned the face in the LUA file of the player in the Revolution mod.. I'm really clueless..

That's a puzzle. The only thing I can think of is CM 15 is still in beta and isn't changing the hashighqualityhead value which has to be set to 1 for players with real faces. A player with a generic face has a 0 value, and it could be you need to manually change that to 1 after you give a player a real face.

You can check this using DBM 14 or 15. Open the db with DMB, highlight the players table (listed on left side), locate the player you edited by his id (playerid value), then check to see that his hashighqualityhead value is set to 1.
