Need help setting up Photos

jgs5032 · 03-29-2016, 11:38 AM

Hey guys. I'm new to the game, and I've been trying for an hour or so, but I can't figure out how to correctly install a photo set into my new game.

If anyone would be so kind to point me in the direction of a good photo set, then help me to actually import them into the game. I'm using a Mac. (or even another thread that details it)

Thank you.

There are photo packs in Add-Ons Central. it has two different, both good, historical & modern face packs.

When you go to Add-on central (you can get there from main screen on your game), if there are not two servers listed, here's a link on how to get the second one (it's the one with the face-pack add-ons.)

hope this helps. don't know if it makes a difference if you use a pc or mac to get these files, but i'm on a pc, so ....

Hi everyone!
I have been a user of another computerized Board game since 1968 (not a computer game then). I really enjoy replaying entire seasons (currently replaying the 2014 season). I manage the home teams and let the computer manage the visitors. It seems the manufacturer of this game is no longer supporting/updating the computerized game, but rather developed a game "geared" for playing against other players for which I have no interest.I am now looking for another venue.
I am hoping OOTP offers what I am looking for! Maybe someone who shares the same interests can tell me if I can replay an entire season, starting with the opening day line-ups, facilitating the trades and player movements that occurred during that season. I am looking for realism (statistics, player injuries, rain outs, fatigue issues, automatic line-ups, etc.) I am not looking to play other players. My question, Can OOTP baseball provide all of this capability including modern stadium replicas

After you install do you need to start a new game for the photos to take effect?

I think so, but I'm not sure. Try messing around with the options on the Game Settings > Players and FaceGen > Player FaceGen Functions page first though. It is supposed to be for FaceGen, but if it works, it'll save you from having to start a game over again. You also want to have the "Load player pictures automatically" box checked and the "Load PhotoFit (FaceGen) files automatically" box unchecked.
