Real Photos/Fictional Photos

RoaringWeasel · 06-18-2009, 02:45 PM

I've had this great game for about a month. Been playing a semi-historical league (real players on somewhat different major league teams) from 1953-1958. I later downloaded player photos from the great padresfan site. But, they do not show up in the game. I've put them in both the pictures and photos folder in the game. No luck. But I do get all these fictional photos in my games. This despite the fact that I have it set for "No Fictional Pictures". Anyone know why this is happening? I'm running Windows XP.

Once you have created a game, and you later want to add real photos to that game, you have to add them into that game's saved game folder. The location is [your game]/news/html/images.

Photos in a Photo folder (they don't go in the pictures folder) only get accessed at the time a game is being created. At that time they are copied into the images folder.

Hope that helps
