Hi

I know this has been pretty much covered before, well in a way that only fm geeks understand, but I am struggling to get my badges, league logos into the game.

I have created a graphics file. I have managed to get the kits to show in the game by creating graphics/kits.

I am now trying to put Premier league and euro logo's and team badges in the game without success.

I have created graphics/pictures, all I need to know is what to do or what have people down from there please.

I have searched through a good number of these posts and I feel it's not been covered that well or else people wouldn't still be asking the same question time and time again in this forum.

Can anyone tell me from the above point on what to do, in an idiots guide please.

I would be gratefull if this post wasn't closed or people refering me to another post that doesn't make sense or sarcastic comments, just an answer or some help please.

Thanks!

Just what I didn't want, a link.

For all those that are still struggling to install graphics I found this out!

my documents/sports interactive/db/graphics.

Inside your graphics you need to create 4 folders.

Kits
Facepacks
Background
logos

Then away you go!

Goodluck!

The link posted is the official one from SI and tells you everything you need to know. Your question crops up 4-5 times a day on average and rather than it not having been answered it's because people tend not to bother looking first. Obviously not in your case, although the custom content guide clearly helped as it is working for you now.

For what it's worth:

1. It does not matter where you put graphics as long as they are in the right initial folder and have a valid config xml file. This folder is not what you put but:

"...\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\"

2. You can create whatever folder structure you want within that folder. For instance I have:

"...\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\3rd Party Graphics\logos"
"...\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\3rd Party Graphics\kits"
"...\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\3rd Party Graphics\photos"

But I could have anything else I wanted to help keep things organised.

For graphics to work you need a graphic file and a config.xml file to link the graphic to the game. Once in the FM 2008 directory it does not matter where you put them.
