Question about Franchise carry over - faces/skin tones

If I'm transferring my franchise from 14, I was wondering if it's possible to use the new player faces/skin tones and/or MLBPA picture for created players from 14.

For example, I'm using the OS rosters from last year and carrying my Cubs franchise over. Javier Baez was a created player last year, but will have a MLBPA picture and specialized skin tones in 15. Would I be able to adopt his 15 likeness into my 14 franchise?

I believe he will not have his picture, skin tone, equipment carried over because it is not a SCEA player. But you can Edit him to have a new skin tone and proper equipment and batting stance.

Yeah I knew it wouldn't transfer over automatically. Just some wishful thinking that we could simply import/adopt the official SCEA Javier Baez (or any other OSFM created player) into our 14 franchise, in terms of player picture and skin tone.

Possibly when Roster Y2Y saves are featured.

Re: Question about Franchise carry over - faces/skin tones

Hello, sorry to hijack thread, but I am new to forum and can't post yet.

I have a question about Franchise Mode I asked on theshownation. They directed me here. Told me nemesis04 might be able to help.

I really loved the option to adjust ticket prices, and hot dog prices, and stadium upgrades, billboards, and tv/radio contracts, and ballpark giveaways to draw fans in. I was wondering if there were plans to bring that back anytime soon. I know it was taken out to make room for the scouting part. I just think this option adds to the realism of being a franchise "owner". You know where your money/budget is coming from.

I know some people like it and some don't. I was just wondering if this feature will be making a return at some point (hopefully in 16).

Skin tones will update and you will get the new Javier Baez Scan in MLB 15 when using carryover saves. This has been confirmed. Same goes with Tanaka, Soler, C. Taylor etc.... You'll also get updated equipment if what the specific player wears is in the game.

It's my understanding that all MLB 14 original SCEA players will automatically adopt their updated pictures and skin tones. These are players that had 2013 service time and shipped with the official MLB 14 roster, like Rizzo or Castro. I'm asking about players that were user created, such as for the OSFM like Baez and Alcantara. These two players had no 2013 service time and therefore had to be created for MLB 14. However, with their 2014 service time, they should have player pics and skin tones for the official day 1 roster set for MLB 15. Are we able to manually adopt their player pic and/or skin tone.

My guess is probably not, but I hold out hope.

No....

What I really hope for (besides Y2Y roster saves) is being able to import players into existing franchises.
That would be phenomenal.
