I recommed using HMan's FM Graphics Configurator. You can drag and drop folders (multiple at the same time) into it, and it automatically adds configs to the dragged and dropped folders. The images must be named with the club IDs:
graphics/pictures/logos/ger/Mecklenburg- Vorpommern/KFV Warnow/12345.png
You could also use this kind of folder structure and file naming if you want to include club names:
graphics/pictures/logos/ger/Mecklenburg- Vorpommern/12345 KFV Warnow.png

I think its picked by rep, not by league
Isn't it just plain wrong then? In the Italian league one club from each Serie D group gets promoted to Serie C. Though there promoted clubs' U20 teams are not entered into the youth league system, which is a bug.

If Wikipedia is correct and I'm understanding it correcly, promotion to National League North/South should be 2 clubs from each of the 4 feeder leagues. This is not happening in the game in consistent manner. Often a dissimilar number of teams are promoted from the different regional competitions (as demonstrated below). I looked at the bug forum, but cannot see if this been reported there.

I made a config with all dates (and some impossible ones - all months have 31 days) from 1955 to 2005. Replace the word imagename with the name of the image you want to use, and Firstname Surname with the names (beginning with capital letters) of the person whose picture you want to change.

Notice that you can change contract start date (if more than 1 year is remaining on the current contract) before entering the proper contract negotiations. Offer a new contract in the beginning of a season, and set the contract start date to the end of that season. The player will request a little bit higher wage, but it will probably take at least two seasons before he will begin to pester about a new deal.

SI standard image sizes for logos in FM21.
Club logos
Normal: Width 180px height 180px maximum. Both width and height can be smaller depending on the dimensions of the logo.
Small: Width 25px height 18px.
Small @2x: Width 50px height 36px.
Competition logos
Normal: Width 240px height 180px maximum. Both width and height can be smaller depending on the dimensions of the logo.
Small: Width 25px height 18px.
Small @2x: Width 50px height 36px.

Should RB Leipzig U19 (2000069512) have some sort of connection/affiliation with the Bundesliga club RB Leipzig? Just one example, there are more than one of these U19 teams that are not connected to what one would assume is their main team.

Thanks for creating a bigger config file.
Unfortunately, I attempted to use it and there have been no change to the Personal Assistant or Press Officer.
I am playing on a large database which is just shy of 50,000 staff. Is there any way of creating a larger config file easily?
Thanks for any help.
Did any regen's (staff and players) face change to a number picture? If it did, it confirms that the config is working and that the Assistant's and Press Officer's ID's are likely not present in it.
Its not too difficult to further expand the config. I used this site to generate the list of numbers.

Previous versions of FM didn't have this issue. The column "Assistant manager's opinion of this player's best position" shows inaccurate position. The assistant's ability, or whether the club even has an assistant manager, seems to have no effect on this.
The squad screen with the Best Pos column.
One example. Isn't this player's players best position on the left wing rather than on the right?

My club was making unexpected financial losses, and I suspected it may have been because of loan player unused monthly fees. If I have understood correctly, these fees should be paid out only if the loan players do not play in the first team? My loanees had been playing every game.
To test the hypothesis I created a new save and loaned a player using ridiculous £5M unused monthly fee. Lo and behold the club is making an extra deficit of about £5M a month, even though the loan player has played every game he has been available for.
Loan player contract and match activity.
Club balance has taken a nosedive, but I cannot see it being shown in expenditure.
The loaning club appears to be receiving the money however.

There are logopacks that come with the @2x logos, but I don't know if mentioning them is allowed. Logopack threads were removed from this board due to licensing reasons.

Yeah I just figured it out.
Do you know what is the formula to integrate the 2x version in the config.xml?
You must have the larger images (50x36px) in a folder named @2x within the folder where you have the small logos. If you extracted the fmf file, just look there for cue. No need to do anything to configs - as long as the folder structure and images are in place and config for the small logos is present, the @2x logos will be used when needed.
1 -
The logopack you have is likely lacking the @2x size of the small logos. It is a bigger size of the small logos that is displayed when high enough zoom is in use. It must also be noted that even the @2x size image must be stretched (displayed at a size larger than the actual image size) by the game if zoom is higher than 200%, and will thus not look ideal. Of course an @2x logo will look much better at 250% than the smaller variant.
If the small logos you have have dimensions 20x20px, it is the reason why they do not line up properly with the SI default logos. The dimensions SI use are 25x18px (50x36px for the @2x version).

Here is a config I made some time ago. It contains IDs from 2000000000 to 2001026431. The rows are in the order of the image number for ease of use.
How to find an ID:
-
Move all other graphics packs except the Hidden Regen UID Finder pack away from the game's graphics folder. This will make reloading FM skin quicker.
-
Replace the Finder pack's config with the one linked in this post.
-
Reload your skin. In-game person's image has been replaced with a number.
-
Open the config in text editor. Remove all rows that begin with <record from that do not have the in-game person's number - from="[number]". Save the file.
-
Select about half of the remaining rows that begin with <record from and remove them by hitting ctrl+x. The removed rows are now on your computer clipboard. Save the config file.
-
Reload your skin.
-
Did the number image inside the game disappear? If not, repeat from step 5. If yes, replace the remaining <record from rows with the ones on your computer clipboard and save the file. Repeat from step 5.
-
Soon you will have narrowed the IDs down to the one that belongs to the in-game person.
-
Remove the Hidden Regen UID Finder pack and move the other packs back into the graphics folder.

Should these be in the game DB? I haven't had a long save yet, but hopefully regens will not get those names.

Bologna's (1111) affiliate club Dianese & Golfo 1923 (43156847) currently inherits Bologna's logo and kits. Probably not correct?
Also Dianese & Golfo 1923 appear to have IRL changed their name to Golfo Dianese 1923. The regional FA has the new name in their match calendar, so the change should be official.

Mine are .PNG but i dont thnk they are transparent, i can look into changing it.
My saved location is a bit different too: C:\Users\arndaddy\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\pictures\media_source (these are the logos)
The filename extension must be lower case (.png).

I think hes using hte sortitoutsi expansion file so he'll have over 500 ingame.
For sure. The scrollbar is very short in the screenshot, and it would make little sense to try to add logos for Ruritania Football Bugle and the likes (unless a generic one for a range of IDs?). Depending on what expansion file it is, it might be one I contributed to several years ago. Though hopefully the file has been reworked since then, as many of the more obscure media sources I edited in have ceased to exist.

I've just found the full list of media sources, under WORLD > OVERVIEW > MEDIA SOURCES.
The list is massive
There are no more than 62 real media sources in the current official DB. Logos for all of them in DVX Logos Logopack. 😉

Check that the lines in the configs are linking to the correct sizes. Logo for the bigger ones and icon for the smaller ones at the end of the lines.

After my test, in fact, the @2x is used at 100% zoom and I see the concern, the quality of the logo is not really what is expected. Here is the comparison: on the left, the "normal" logo and on the right the @2x : Picture Link
Indeed. SI only uses small @2x images, but on higher zooms the bigger logos should also be larger than the base standard.

Silly me I thought KFV Warnow was a club name... 😆
I'm not in the macOS ecosystem, so do not know the ins and outs of the different programs. One of the advantages of FM Graphics Configurator is the possibility to use ID and additional text in the filenames and still create working configs automatically. If fm xml app for mac does not funtion similarly, then manually editing the xmls is probably the only way. Adding the directory path to the config if the config is not in the same folder as the images is something that should work fine. All the names of the folders and files must contain only English alphabets, so no umlauts or other diacritical marks - from the screenshots it looks like you have taken this into account.
