Mods on Game Pass PC edition?

[Darth Sonic]

How do I activate mods for Game Pass PC edition? I copied graphics, skins and so on to folder C:\Program Files\ModifiableWindowsApps\Football Manager 2022 but nothing gets loaded.

I also activated Modding in Xbox App.

Would like to know this as well.

[tax0r]

I was wondering this, also was wondering if any sort of pre game or in game editor would work with game pass version 

[faust405245]

Yeah, same. My facepacks don't seem to be loading. 

[faust405245]

Also, does anyone know if/how you get the editor via gamepass? Not the in game one, but the proper editor. Thanks.

Facepacks etc go in the same folder in My Documents as they do on Steam

Yeah, that's what I did (tried). I went into my documents, sports interactive, Football manager 22, made a graphics folder and then just copied the folders from last year. But I've reloaded cache and they don't seem to be working. To be honest I'm almost certainly missing something, but alas I'm not sure what.

Check to see if you have a gamepass folder inside the Football Manager 2022 folder, if you do then you need to place the graphics folder you created with your graphics inside the gamepass subfolder.

You need to untick skin caching and reload the skin then it will work for Facepacks.

It doesn't work. I've done everything listed above and it just doesn't work. There is no gamepass folder anywhere in the Sports Interactive folder. If I create one and add the graphics folder to there it does nothing either. I've tried putting it in the folder the Xbox app suggests is the mods folder too, both in a folder called gamepass and not. It just doesn't work.

This is what my folder looks like where the facepack is and all works:

C:\Users\**youraccountname***\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics

You dont need any files to edit in WindowsApps folder for skins, player updates or facepacks.
Then under Preference - Advance - Interface - scroll midle where it says "Reload skins when confirming changes in Preferences" 
Hit Confirm and it should load the faces.

Confirm that for logos/skin etc it al goes in your C:\Users\**youraccountname***\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics just like how it would for Steam version. I done mine all last nigh t as soon as game came out but only thing i can't find is pre game editor.

For Gamepass? The issue is for Gamepass specifically. Above it says to put the graphics folder into the gamepass folder, but there is no Gamepass folder. 
 

Somebody also said that you have to create a Gamepass folder and then create a Graphics folder inside this. But this also doesn’t seem to work.

Is the Gamepass folder hidden maybe?

It seems most don't have this Gamepass folder to put the Graphics folder in. Would it be in any other location than the standard C:\Users\**youraccountname***\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022 ?

Creating the folder manually doesn't seem to work either.

There is no such thing as gamepass folder. Dont understand the info also on some sites. I got editor files and facepacks working just fine like doing it on steam version.

This is how document folder looks like. No need to poke anything else if you only want faces, skins, editor data.

Try fiddling around with settings in fm, maybe it is not loading in. 

Also can try to enable modding for FM. Not sure if it helps or not. (I have it on, so it shows "open Mods folder")

Yeah this is all you need to do, there is no need to enable modding.

Are you talking about game files or the documents that i have screenshot a bit up in the thread?

[DenisT]

I mean the Sport Interactiv folder where all the graphics are stored. This is automatically created under Documents folder.
I would like to move this folder (the whole folder C:\Users\*YOURNAME*\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022) to the D: Save drive.
For Steam there is the following video https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=27&v=DOJ50pxX5x0&feature=emb_title

For Xbox App I have not found anything so far.

[faust405245]

Okay, so I've just downloaded a patch (an update, that is; it was there on my game pass when I went to start the game. Also, it no longer says mine is a beta version; maybe that was something to do with it), and mine is working now. I didn't change anything, just reloaded cache. Hopefully it should start working for other people too.

Interesting, never done it. But i understand you are basically doing launch parameter change from steam. This can be done in exe files also, but for now i cant seem to find option for Target field in gamepass games.

Maybe someon from SI can help out or I can later  check more but it seems right now for the gamepass version you can not change the direction like this. So you should put the graphics files to documents like they are originaly ment

I've still got an issue with this. It just isn't working. I've got the game installed on the D: drive, but the Sports Interactive folder is on the C: drive. Does this make a difference? I can't really install it on C: as the laptop is setup with a small SSD with windows on it as C and a big SSD as D: drive.

I've put the graphics folder into C:\Users\*My Username*\OneDrive\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics

Is the fact my documents folder is on One Drive an issue?

If not, do the sub-folders within graphics have to be laid out in any particular way? For example I have:

C:\Users\*My Username*\OneDrive\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics\logos\club\normal

Then the logo images are in the 'normal' folder.

I have kits, logos and facepack (All the main ones DF11 Megapack etc) but none of them work in the game. I've done the settings in preferences, clearing the cache, unticking use caching and ticking reload skin when changing preferences etc.

ive always bought the game through steam in the past but recently got game pass so ive downloaded through that this year, does anyone know if you can access the pre game editor for game pass or do you have to have the steam version for that?

[Rysi3k]

Can I somehow download the Gibraltar League so I can play it on the Gamepass?

 

Because if it´s available only on Steam Workshop, there is no chance for me to install it.

For editor files on Gamepass (Football Manager 2022 only), this is possible. 

Same as for the graphics, they need to be in your Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2022/editor data folder

You will of course need to obtain the editor files in order for this to work and install them there.
