[Solved]Can I change my Avatar?

[ODDity]

I didn't realise Rocket League would take my Steam avatar to use in-game and since starting to play I changed it to longcat because it was even more undesirable before, but this hasn't been reflected on my in-game profile down the bottom, or on the in-game tables.

Is there a way to poke it and make it take the new Steam avatar or a way to manually change it perhaps?

Cheers

Are you asking on how to change your steam avatar?...

[ODDity]

Oh, no, thank you.. I changed my Steam avatar, but it still shows the old one in Rocket League.. I did find a thread with similar issue here

So maybe I just have to wait a while

it's probably stored somewhere other than your own profile. Like RL took your avatar once and stored the picture. Makes sense? Just a guess

[ODDity]

yeah totally.. I couldn't find a way in-game to sort of "update" manually and also did a recursive grep search of all the local files inside Rocket League for reference to the image file but nothing turned up yet.. it wouldn't if they were converted to binary anyway..

Perhaps it'll update tomorrow or so, I did only change it yesterday.

Thanks for ideas!

ahhh I found it - silly me, I had to actually sign in to "friends" in Steam to update the picture there, and then Rocket League picked it up straight away when opening it..

I dont sign in to friends automatically so.. there we are.

Thanks all!

Oh my god thank you. I never would've thought to have done that. Man steam has a stupid system. Thanks again, I've been trying to fix this for months.
