Hello.

Does anyone know how to make your manager profile picture turn out like a player profile picture, so that you can see your clubs' badge behind it? Basically, so there's no background behind your picture.

I'm just curious if this can be done before I start a proper game.

Thanks.

You need photo editing software, like photoshop to do that.

If you up load a picture you want doing, I will edit it for you.

I've made a PSD image of the picture I want to use, but you can't use PSDs in the game.

Would having a PSD of the picture I want to use be useful? Like am I halfway there or anything?

Thanks for your help btw.

you are more than half way there. just open the PSD file in whatever program you used( i assume photoshop) and then 'save as' the file type required, i think pmp but im unsure.

hope this helps...

If you have photoshop, then open the PSD file in photoshop, and assuming you have edited it to what you want, use the save for web option, then select PNG-24 and tick the transparency box and the game should now be able to read your image.

Yeah I selected a 180x180 head section of my picture after I PSDed it and saved it as PNG, which is what I think is the format, but the picture in the game still has a background.

Ah okay I'll give that a go and report back lol.

Thanks everyone for your help on this matter.

Anyone know why the old picture config wont work for FM 08?

<record from="my picture" to="graphics/pictures/person/craig hunter 9-4/portrait"/>

The my picture part will be a file named my picture.png in the same directory as your config file and the craig hunter 9-4 part will be your name and day-month of birth.

Thanks in advance

Lose the d.o.b bit and replace with the unique id of the player.
