Importing Miniface

Jump to bottom
Aranaktu edited this page Sep 27, 2023 · 1 revision

The FC 24 Live Editor allows you to import the miniface for any real or youth player. The minifaces will be visible only when Live Editor will be working, so if you run the game without the tool you won't be able to see the new minifaces. This feature doesn't work for created player in player career mode and for homegrown talent.

Game file format

To avoid any potential errors you should use the same image format and size as the game uses. FC 24 is using DDS (DXT5) textures, the height and width of image is 180px.

Converting image

To convert the image manually I'm using paint.net which allows you to change format to BC3 (linear, DXT5) while saving the image.

As far as I know there are also Adobe Photoshop plugins and even online converters which can convert images to DXT5 format.

If you are a little more advanced user and you want to convert multiple images at once you can use ImageMagick command line.

For example, png to dds:

mogrify -format png *.dds

Importing the miniface via Players Editor

Open Player Editor

To open player editor:

  • Run the FC 24 Live Editor. (Getting Started Guide)
  • Load the game mode where you want to edit player
  • Press F9 on your keyboard to open the menu
  • From Window click on Features

  • Open Players

  • Wait a moment until the tool load the players
  • Find Player and Click on Edit icon to start editing him

  • You can now edit the player.

Importing miniface

  • When you are in player editor click on Player -> Import miniface

  • Then find the image on your disk, select it and press Ok to confirm

Errors

If you get an error or your game keeps crashing when loading minifaces then Deleting imported minifaces.

Next, make sure you import the miniface with correct file format and correct size. The most common error is casued because people isn't resizing their minifaces or they don't convert their images to DDS (they just simply rename png/jpg to dds) or isn't using same dds format as the game. If you are one of them then read these again:

Importing multiple minifaces

The Live Editor is loading the minifaces from your C:\FC 24 Live Editor\mods\root\Legacy\data\ui\imgAssets\heads

You need to run the live editor at least once to have the C:\FC 24 Live Editor folder.

If you want to import multiple minifaces simply move the files to C:\FC 24 Live Editor\mods\root\Legacy\data\ui\imgAssets\heads For example, if you want to add face for Dino Visser (ID: 256318) then put the miniface in C:\FC 24 Live Editor\mods\root\Legacy\data\ui\imgAssets\heads and name it p256318.DDS if you have visible file extensions in your system (I do have), if not then name it p256318.

Deleting imported minifaces

Delete the images you don't want from C:\FC 24 Live Editor\mods\root\Legacy\data\ui\imgAssets\heads
