Portraits.big file not updating....Please help!

[gordgraff]

For some reason when i make changes to my roster in MVPedit, such as making new players with new player ID#s, the portrait.big file is not updated. All the changes show up in the game...i can assign a fake player a new player id number, and his portrait shows up in the game as that black blank pic (as all players without portraits do, but when i go into EA Graphics Editor his newly created id# does not show up.

Can someone help please? Is there a trick to exporting in MVPedit? I'm exporting and importing to the data>database folder.

try opening the portrait file in ea's graphic editor and importing the files.

I am familiar with doing that of course, that is the problem here. When i open the portraits file in EA Graphics Editor the new player id# don't show up....meaning i can add their photo.

Am i not explaining myself well here? If so, the player id# don't seem to be updating when i export my roster, since they don't show up in EA Graphics Editor.

I had that exact same problem. However, if you go to the downloads section and download the new "Ultimate Rosters 2" version, it gives you the correct rosters for every team in the game (MLB, AAA, AA, and A) as well as a photo/audio ID #### for each player in the game. From there, all you have to do is edit the photos in MVPedit.

So, in other words, I got around my problem by downloading that roster mod since it already assigns each player an ID #### and you just have to change the photo.
