Facepack problem

[SeanyG]

I save my games on my d/drive so the path suggested for install C\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\faces\ doesnt exist for me. any idea where i put the facepack files on a d/drive?

wherever your documents folder is

dont have a documents folder? just a data folder with 6 other folders inside - Database - DLC - GAME - SICOMPS - SIFACEGEN or SIMATCH. Im a pc newb and dont wana just drop em anywhere.

Everyone has a documents folder. If your running windows its the folder attached to the task bar unless you have unpinned it. I've checked and there is no way to delete the folder unless you brute force it.

Ah ok i understand now lol ill stick em in there then. thanks for the help

Yeah I have issues with this as well because the C: drive on my rig is small and that's where my documents folder is. The Facepacks are huge and fill my C: drive right up. Is there a way to create a pathway to hold facepacks in my D: drive along with the game itself?

When i open the facepack file in the downloads folder i open it with bittorrent, it then gives me the option to change the download path. Im going to download using this path D:\ steam\ steamapps\common\football manager 2020\ data\faces ill have to create the faces folder myself, no idea if it will work but ill let you know

you have to put facepack to this folder \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\faces\ and create folder graphics\faces if you doesnt have one.

that helps me alot thank you, not sure it answers the other guys question tho, not wanting to have it in the documents folder due to it being linked to the c drive. is there a way to install the facepack via the d drive? I wouldnt mind knowing myself as my c drive isnt huge either and prefer to keep it as empty as possible.

you can change the folder Documents from C drive to D drive, just google it, its not too hard

ok brilliant i will do, thanks for the help.

Really is easy.

Go to Windows Start > Open "Computer."
Click the triangle next to "Documents."
Right-click the "My Documents" folder.
Click "Properties" > Select the "Location" tab.
Type "D:\docs" in the bar > Click [Apply].
A message box may ask you if you want to move the contents of the folder to the new folder. Click [No]. If you have files saved on your C: drive, you can move those manually.
All files will now default save to your D: drive.

You are welcome, I did it the same, cause my SSD drive isnt that big, if you want more graphics or other staff, i use these helpfull sites https://sortitoutsi.net/ and https://www.fmscout.com/ to get it :)

FM Scout is no longer doing Logos or faces due to copyright issues...

Fine for Skins, tactics and real name fixes though

This has been a great thread. Thanks all.

Damn wish i had downloaded the logo pack when i had the chance, only grabbed the facepack and still havent got round to installing that. Hopefully there will be a way to get my hands on
the logopacks in the future, I dont really like the fake badges. Thankfully the fake names
can still be changed.
