Player Pics affected by Height/Weight

[regenerator]

Can we please edit how thin/thick a player pic is, or have it be automatically edited by their weight/height where appropriate? Or would this change entail too much coding at this late stage?

It's not really a matter of coding. There are just set number of faces/heads in the game, that combine with a set number of hair and facial hair types randomly to create the player image.

There are as of now none of these faces that are larger/fatter, so until those are created you aren't really going to see players that really look large like NFL lineman.

The faces are split into three categories basically - white, Asian and darker skin tones... I think if they did implement heavier players it would be cool to create say 15 to 25 faces that look larger/fatter and then enable some code that those faces are only put in use say for players over 300 lbs.

As of now you can edit the faces to try to find something you think matches better for a particular player, but there just don't exist "fatter" faces in the game as of now.

If you were up to making it, you could add a faceset that is only heavier players. Then you can use that faceset for those players. You’d likely need to give them a different size jersey and hair later too. That’s the challenge with the different sizes.

Yea, g is right... you can add your own facesets to the game which would allow custom jerseys, faces, etc. There really isn't a way in the game to pick a particular faceset by position/age/height/weight, but you can certainly do it by editing players.

Oh you can add your own that's great!
Could you possible provide your source images to make for easier editing? Say with layers unmerged or something of the sort for those of us not particularly skilled with graphics?

It’s in the game files actually. Go to documents>wolverine >ddspf20>league>html>images>players.

That’s shortened names and from memory but should get you there.
