Jonfun1980 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Can we share the graphics folder from the full fat version with the touch version? I don't really want to have to copy the graphics file over and have 2 of them to keep updated. Logo,s, Facepacks etc, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennytee Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 In steam right click on FM Touch the click Properties -- Set launch options In the Dialog box you need to point it towards your Full fat FM folder like this --user_data_location="C:\Users\yourusername\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2017" Hope this helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deek123 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 anyone have any ideas regarding this, i followed instructions above but no joy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennytee Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Not sure what to say mate, works fine for me make sure you copy it exactly . The whole thing including everything before the quotation marks --user_data_location="C:\Users\yourusername\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2017" but obviously change the yourusername bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deek123 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 yeah it is copied correctly, i dont get what the problem is? anyways, i just play normal fm i guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennytee Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 strange, sorry I couldn't help, I assume you have reloaded the skin? I can heartily recommend the full FM although Touch is my preference for online Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deek123 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 thats okay, i have reloaded skin yes, i am at a loss lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gw79 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 A shortcut is to rename your "Football Manager 2017" folder "Football Manager Touch 2017" when you change over! (I've added a letter to the original touch folder that I don't use) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works for me if I do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deek123 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 yeah i done that too, it is the same in FM touch as in my main FM and graphics working fine there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich10 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Oh sorry, I meant to say: copy your FM graphics folder over to your FMT main folder (there's already an empty 'graphics' there, delete it), and then do that un-ticking...and it should work.

Deek123 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 they work the way you just said Rich10, only thing is its nearly 30gb worth of FM graphics on my c:drive now , it is 250gb though so there is enough space it is just annoying it wont work the way Bennytee did it, thanks to both of you for your help.

(I've added a letter to the original touch folder that I don't use) I would say this is your best bet Deek, a bit of a pain doing it every time but it was what I was going to do before I came across my solution 4 minutes ago, Deek123 said: they work the way you just said Rich10, only thing is its nearly 30gb worth of FM graphics on my c:drive now , it is 250gb though so there is enough space it is just annoying it wont work the way Bennytee did it, thanks to both of you for your help.
