Player Facegen images....

One thing that bothers me....

Why can't the game save the player in uniform with his last team instead of the dreadful blue generic uniform. This seems like it would be a simple change.

I now go in and change the player back to a team and then have him refreshed in the uniform and then I save the pic with the players name to keep the image. This is just too much work to do for all the players.....

I assume you're talking about the HOF/retired and not free agency? i agree, for the HOF it should default to the team uniform they were with the longest in their career and last team for retired.

Depending on when you last view their player card, and possibly your settings, it already does this. I have my facegen set to update 'as needed' or whatever that setting is called, and the player pictures stop updating once a player has retired - so you will only get the generic uniform if you viewed their player card (or a picture of them in some other manner) before they retired, but after they were released from their last team.

In the case of retired players it would be nice to be able to set the viewable jersey. I'm thinking a drop down on the player card only visable in commish mode and after retirement. Select the team and poof the jersey appears.

Along those same lines I would like to see the championship screen "freeze" the players jersey because it looks strange to look at a past championship picture and see 10 different team uniforms.

yes - I would really like to see this fixed.

it is a very cool idea, but I never go and look at this page, because it doesn't look right.
