FAQ

Q: I see players with different photos, what can I do?A: Make sure you are not using other files that create players/staff, as this can mess with Player IDs and photos won’t match.

Q: New players don’t have photos (FM21–24), what can I do?A: Go to FM Settings > Preferences > Advanced > Interface:

Disable Use caching to decrease page loading times

Enable Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences

Confirm and reload your skin; photos should now appear.

Q: I don’t see any new players/staff in my save, what’s wrong?A: Ensure you enabled FM Data Tweaks files when starting a new save.

Q: I don’t see updated transfers, what’s wrong?A: FM Data Tweaks does not include transfers. You should use a Transfer Update file alongside it. A txt inside the zip contains links to recommended updates.
