You really look like a manager of a professional team (H)

I took Palermo btw. Just won 3-2 at Home vs. Besiktas. 2× Carraciollo and 1× Corini.

Signed Gioda and Dalibor Stevanovic so far.

Socrates, which way is the co own bug apply? So who cant bid for the player, the one currently having him in his team, or the one who doesnt have him in the team?

It works like this, if you Co-own a player from another team, say Toni from Fiorentina to Palermo than at the end of the year he will go to Fiorentina for free without you being able to do anything about it :kader: So if he is your player he is yours for free if its another teams player than you lose him for free. So let all you players get co-owned if you want to than you can get them back for free if you really want too. I personally dont co-own players for this very reason, i just try to loan them in.

BTW nice choice with Palermo, they have an excellent team Grosso is just soo good, i also beat PSV in the CL Final :hump: I will show you a pic later :p :borat:

He participated in the 'face in the game' competition for FM06. It's meant to be a supply of future regens, but if you add a manager with the same name and birthday (day and month), the pic will show also.

Well you don't need to get into the 'face in the game' competition. You can do it yourself.
But I didn't like my face in the FM 2005 anyway. All those people who searched for Max van Deurzen and than get a heart attack. :p :lui:

We're talking about the unique ID that appears, when you first select it in preferences(as Cody said), and than click your profile. How to add your picture here's Ruud

Adding pictures, logos, and kits to FM:

Any graphical enhancements to FM need to be formatted in a layered png format. It needs to have a transparent background, and the image needs to be in a floating layer. The easiest way to achieve this is to open a new canvas of the desired size in Photoshop, while having 'Background contents' set to 'transparent', and paste the image in there. It will then put the image in a floating layer. After that 'save as' and select '*.png' from the dropdown menu.

Different images require different sizes too, here's a quick list:
- Player/staff pictures can be 95 pixels wide x 95 high, maximum.
- Logos for clubs, competitions, or nations have a height of 50 pixels, but also keep the width low, as the logos might overlap the club or competition names.
- Kit sizes would be 52x40.

To have these images appear in FM, you need to save them in a new subfolder of "\data\graphics\pictures", and in that subfolder create a file called 'config.xml'. That file is basically a standard text-file, made with for instance Notepad, which tells FM to link images to certain data. It tells FM to load a picture in the profile of a player, a logo in the title bar for a club/nation, competition, and kits for the club information screen and match overview screen. FM uses unique ID numbers to recognise people, clubs/nations, and competitions. You need to know these numbers for every person, club, nation, or competition you want to add an image to. Upon checking "Show Unique IDs" in the "Options" or "Game Preferences" screen, and confirming, FM will show the ID under the item's name in the title bar. For logos and kits you need the club/nation ID.


The contents of the 'config.xml' will need to include the following to be recognised by FM:
Code:
<record>
	<boolean id="preload" value="false"/>
	<boolean id="amap" value="false"/>
		
	<list id="maps">

	</list>
</record>

And you also need to put a list of strings, telling FM where the images need to be shown, between "<list id="maps">" and "</list>".

A person string would look like this:
Code:
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/person/(UNIQUE PERSON ID)/portrait"/>

Club and nation strings would respectively look like these:
Code:
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/club/(UNIQUE CLUB ID)/logo"/>
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/nation/(UNIQUE NATION ID)/logo"/>

A kit string would be any of these, for respectively home, away, and third kits:
Code:
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/team/(UNIQUE CLUB/NATION ID)/kits/home"/>
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/team/(UNIQUE CLUB/NATION ID)/kits/away"/>
<record from="(image name without .png)" to="graphics/pictures/team/(UNIQUE CLUB/NATION ID)/kits/third"/>

Mixing these in one 'config.xml' file is no problem, so the file could have the following content:
Code:
<record>
	<boolean id="preload" value="false"/>
	<boolean id="amap" value="false"/>
		
	<list id="maps">

	<record from="player1" to="graphics/pictures/person/00000001/portrait"/>
	<record from="player2" to="graphics/pictures/person/00000002/portrait"/>
	<record from="player3" to="graphics/pictures/person/00000003/portrait"/>
	<record from="random club" to="graphics/pictures/club/001/logo"/>
	<record from="random club_home" to="graphics/pictures/team/001/kits/home"/>
	<record from="random club_away" to="graphics/pictures/team/001/kits/away"/>
	<record from="random club_third" to="graphics/pictures/team/001/kits/third"/>

	</list>
</record>

and once you've done that you should put it in the regens folder located: Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2006\data\graphics\pictures\players\regens\

It's also in the FAQ thread :p ;)

i'd recommend putting your picture in the regens folder, then adding the needed code from your config file into the config file already there.


or you could most probably just place it in a new folder or not in a folder at all i would assume. As long as the ID etc. are correct

I put my picture in the regens folder, and I added the string (with my unique ID) for my picture into the regens' config file and went into the game, the picture is there but it's reallly fvcked up. :S I followed the exact instructions to make the picture (transparent background, floating layer, png file)

Can people upload there stats so I can see how well they do, thanks.

2nd loss of the season, first was against Chelsea, had to use a poor team because I have some idiotic fixture list. Arsenal then Chelsea in the Premiership within 2 days of eachother, then Tottenham in FA Cup final and about 4 days later the CL final, unreal really.

http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=team1qw.jpg

Good team of the year eh? :)

Scholes, Keane and Smith are probably the dirtiest players in the Premiership, bunch of mongs, like kids, you need to sub them off non-stop else they get sent off.

Ah well, lost the final to Tottenham 2-3, away as f*cking usual, never get a home fixture in the cups much, funny that I managed to beat them something like 3-1 using a shocking weak team, game is a f*cking joke.
