I am new to OOTPB and am in the process of setting up my own fictional league, consisting of real life people I have known over the years in the many places I have lived and worked. I have my own vision of what each player's face should look like and wish that OOTPB offered the ability to create or edit faces instead of asking me to just accept its random offering. So I have looked around for external FaceGen software, and like everyone else, came across the FaceGen Modeller by Singular Inversions. I e-mailed them and asked if they could give me advice about how I could use their software to interact with OOTPB. One of their representatives responded by telling me I should ask that the next version of OOTPB has the ability to import FG files, as the next version of their free demo is going to allow saving in that format. From what I understand, the current demo version does not allow saving and exporting, and the real deal costs between $300 and $500, depending on who you buy it from. So the ability to use their FaceGen demo for this purpose would be awesome.

I would vote that high priority be given to either this or some other functionality that enables one to override the randomly-assigned face with some sort of editor. I would consider it reasonable for OOTPB to offer this as an optional adder that could be purchased. OOTPB graphics are the reason I bought this software instead of Diamond Mind.

I also second the motions suggesting the addition of road uniforms and allowing for female players.

Thanks,
Diamond Jim
