I will go over it tonight and let you guys know what wasnt changed and I will see if i can get him to do those in the next update.

Cool, thanks Houston.

Personally, I prefer accuracy for current players as opposed to prospects in the minors and such. Besides, you can always import them from the Vault if need-be.

There seemed to be a ton of stuff that wasn't right (height/weight - body types) that needed to be (or was?) changed from the initial release roster that Knight used. Maybe someone can convince everyone to wait a bit next year as it seems only SCEA can fix certain things.

Speaking of which - one last quick question; does SCEA fix body types and faces mid-season? Like, Andrelton Simmons for example seems really off to me.

I updated the list and im pretty proud of all that got fixed. If anyone is interested in helping me go thru the 4/1 update just players on the 40 man rosters who might need there body type fixed please PM me.

Quick question: I'm looking at the Yankees roster post-roster update and Vernon Wells' and Brennan Boesch's NYY portraits aren't loading properly.

Like, only part of it is showing. Hafner's worked, but some players are only coming through partially or not at all (as in, a blank -- not a generated face or portrait).

Anyone with any ideas on what's going on or how to fix it? Thanks.

EDIT: Also, at least for my game, the generic faces change is no longer working. When a player changes teams, he retains his portrait and does not change to a generated face.

I have missing portrait issue with some players, most notably on the Mets (Lyon, Hawkins, Atchison). None of them have portraits or generated faces.

Make sure they are on your MLB 25 man rosters. Anyone that's in the minors will have a generic photo until you move them to MLB rosters.

Yeah, I gave that a try.

I moved those guys to the minors and then promoted them back up and still got nothing.

Am I doing something wrong?

I did the "Save Live Roster" thing to get the portraits to work, I saved those rosters then I loaded the OSFM rosters and those portraits still showed up and I saved the OSFM rosters again... But today when I loaded up the OSFM rosters those portraits didn't show up...

Am I really going to have to do the "Live Roster" workaround everytime?

Somehow the aforementioned Mets guys showed up for me now.

Guys like Lohse, and Mark Reynolds still don't though.
