    Thank you so much, repped! I'll give this a try tomorrow, since I tried a similar method earlier which didn't work.

    EDIT: yay it worked Thanks again, you made it so much easier to explain that other sites did. Is it possible to do it for other people?
    Yup, the exact same method will work for any person in the game

    Re: Football Manager Society II
    Now 2nd with hull city in the championship in january, still told the board I'm expecting a top half finish, I'm 5 points behind west ham(had a 5 point gap but went on a poor run of form) but got a new signing. If leigh griffiths is fit till the end of the season I should be fine as he has 22 league goals in 19 appearances. I may need a target man/deep lying forward to help him as I've sold ghilas and need an alternative anyway

    :banghead: On my Norwich/Burnley save Zavon Hines has requested a transfer as he hasn't got the first team football I guarenteed. This is due to the fact that he has been injured for 3 months, bad enough for him to see a specialist and not be available.

    On the Norwich side, I'm three games into the season having lost the first one (1-0 against Chelsea) and winning the other two (2-0 against Wigan and 2-1 against Man Utd - the first time I've beaten Utd on FM!). With Burnley, I'm joint top after 5 games having only drawn 1 (0-0 against Middlesbrough) and winning the other 4.

    I assume, I just need to do the same method, whilst creating a new file, what can I save the config.xml as since it'll overwrite the old one if I try it for another player. If I were to get the faces megapack, would I need to start a new save game? and is there any 'quick' way to get this.. Thanks for the help!

    Just add the extra names in the same config.xml file, don't bother making new ones each time
    Code:
    <list id="maps">
        <record from="johnsmith" to="graphics/blahblahblah/123456/portrait"/>
        <record from="joebloggs" to="graphics/blahblahblah/4567890/portrait"/>
    </list>
    That gives John Smith and Joe Bloggs their own respective portrait pictures in the one XML file.

    Any facepack that's remotely organised will have several subfolders and probably a config.xml file for each subfolder, so there's no need to worry about those overwriting anything and again you just need to go into Options and reload the skin cache once they're in place, you don't have to start a new game

    Re: Football Manager Society II
    Bit of bug going on in my save look at Marco Reus & Neven Subotic's record in the last three season. It's like they have played a league game in three season, this has been happening on my game in the German league. They don't play league games only cup matches. If you look at my last picture the league table has been stuck like that for three seasons :/

    Just had a look at that. Seems pretty interesting, might have a go at some point.

    Good luck!

    Why are lots of players from international teams/leagues blanked out? I can't make a transfer for offer for most or them, or see much about them

    I've got an English wonderkid by the name of Jamie Gowens, who is apparently "the next Alan Shearer". Not sure if want... If I ever find "the next Wayne Rooney" I'm putting him in goal against Rangers and destroying his confidence so the world never has to suffer another one...

    I'm scared of wayne rooney. He is better than messi in the game(he's not better than leigh griffiths though ) griffiths got 38 goals in 39 appearances.

    Anyway, promoted in my first season using hull city with 101 points and came first, I've now boosted the team by buying formica and some ofther players. Lets see if I can stay in the prem, although I'm going to play on my barca save and see whether the 3-6-1 experiment is working as I haven't conceded with it yet so I'll play a season with it.

    Lol, looked at my last post and I've played half a season over the course of 15 hours :lol:

    A few things - you don't have enough leagues selected. The German/Japan teams are blanked out anyway due to a copyright dispute or something. Database could be too small.

    Its most likely due to the amount of leagues you have selected. Add some more to the save.

    Millwall side are on a hopeless 14 game winless streak. went from playoff challenge to relegation battle.

    No Transfer budget, No wage budget, couldn't shift any players, even for free.

    Darius Henderson is a massive lump of uselessness arse.
