How do i upload my manage rpicture, midway thru a game.

I am pretty sure I am being dumb but I want to upload my manager picture in a game that I have already started, i cant seem to find the option.

You could create a config file and use your manager unique ID to assign the picture to yourself.

Okay can you give me a step by step on this please?

Here's the file I am using to add my manager picture. If you edit it, then change 'profile' to the name of your picture and change '2023090495' to your own unique ID. Then stick that file along with your picture in a folder somewhere in Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2010\graphics

Then reload the skin, it should then appear.

Done, thanks.

im trying to do the same thing but the file will not load any ideas

this is probably a stupid question but how do i find out what unique id is and what the name of my picture is

and also how do i edit the file. sorry im really not very good at things like this

Neal,

I will expand what dafuge said;

-Go into preferences and find the "Use unique ID codes" or something. Tick this box and click confirm. (In FM)

-This will then show a unique number code on every player/manager/coach etc profile screen.

-Go to your profile screen, look up the top near your name, there should be a long number code, copy this down.

- Open dafuge's file with notepad. Change '2023090495' to your ID number you found, also change the 'profile' to the name of your picture, eg. 'neal partner' (keep it lowercase)

- This image file needs to be a PNG file and the name you replace 'profile' with MUST match the name of the picture you want.

- Make a folder in Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2010\graphics

- Put the config file AND the picture in that folder.

- Open FM up/or reload skin

Hope this helps in anyway, when you do it once it's simple and you can change any player/manager/coach picture.

i tried this it never worked i never had a graphics folder so i made 1.then made 1 called g then put that in the garphics folder then put my pic and file in the g folder.

Ok, then click:

- Preferences while in FM

- Display and Sound

- Make sure "Always Reload Skin on Confirm" is ticked.

- Click "Confirm"

excellent cheers ryknow i'll try that right now

i cant do it my picture is a jpg file and i cant put thepicture in my config file

- Download a program that can convert your jpeg image to a PNG, just search a bit unless you have some programs that can do it. Pretty sure photoshop can

- You don't put the image in the config file, just the name of it.

eg. <record from="neal" to="graphics/pictures/person/1394654113/portrait"/>

..........................^ Your picture name.....................^ Your unique ID

Find that bit in the file dafuge has uploaded, and save it. All you need to do then is convert your jpeg picture to a PNG

ok ive done all of the above but it is still not in my game i dont think its going to happen. thankyou all for trying.

done it i just typed the picture name in wrong. thankyou everyone.
