Odd picture problem

[Peter]

I have the latest version of the game and I've had roster problems, game crashing and locking up and so forth. So I found an older file and installed it as my new 2008X.lg I updated or adjusted all of the rosters, most of their attributes, and made all the pictures fictional. Only problem is certain pictures revert back to the real photos. Most of the Astros, and other assorted stars like Ramirez, Jeter, etc... The only work around is to alter the name slightly, Dioner Navarro is now Dionner Navarro and I've done the same to others. Any idea how to fix this? Unless I use the name spelling fix around every time I start the game some pictures change back to real photos.

When OOTP creates a player pic it names it using the player's ID number. IE a player with the ID # 1015 is named something like "player_1015.jpg". However OOTP will use a named player photo over a numbered player photo.
Example would be if Navarro was player #1015 but also had a real photo in the images file named "Dioner_Navarro.jpg" the game would use the "Dioner_Navarro.jpg" and not the created "player_1015.jpg".

To get the game to use the facegen pictures you'll need to delete the real player photos from "images" folder. It's in your saved game under html\images. Hope that helps.

Thanks, that worked.
