you need to put the face packs in:

c/progam files/ sports interactive/ fottball manager 2007/ data/ graphics/ pictures / players

within the game go to "options" and within that you will find " preferences".

untick " skin Cache". make sure the bos is ticked says show players faces.

Press " confirm" annd the pictures will load.

for skins - do the same but load to ..../ data/ graphics / skins.

I hope this helps

Not quite, don't touch anything in the program files\si\fm path.

Virtually all graphics can go in my documents\sports interactive\fm07. In this fm folder make a folder called graphics. In the newly created graphics folder make four folders called backgrounds, logos, kits, pictures.

Any pack you then download can then be placed in the appropriate folder. So, say you download a Serie A background pack you put it in a documents\si\fm\graphics\backgrounds\italy folder.

If you download a english facepack it'll go in my documents\si\fm\graphics\pictures\england

The only exceptions are downloads that show up during a match itself (like sky sports pop-ups or the fancy ref icons -yellow/red cards/whistle etc). They have to go in program files\si\fm etc etc but backgrounds,logos, kits and facepacks are better in my docs.

I think this was SI advice as there was the possibility of deleting something important or patches affecting stuff if you just bung everything in program files.

Do the ticking as Super sub suggests, but dont forget to also tick "show backgrounds" and any other "show..." options if there are any. I forget whether there are "show picture"/show logos" options

Oh, misread Super subs post slightly.

Untick "use skin cache"
But also tick "always reload cache on confirm"

Click confirm then load you saved game.

you should download a piece of software called "Winrar" which is an unzipper.

when the file is downloaded the software will pop up and ask to to "extract" it. Just follow the instructions above.

you can "Google" winrar and download for free. Winzip is fine but dosen't work for all files.
