NEW VIDEO!
The newgen faces in FM23 are... not great. So I've been updated mine in my Almeria DOF save by generating new ones using AI and midjourney. Today's video tutorial shows you how I've been doing this and how to add them to your game.
Download FMXML: www.fmscout.co...
Midjourney: www.midjourney...
Remove the background from an image here: remove.bg/
1. Ensure you can see Player IDs in game preferences
2. Generate the player face on midjourney. My prompt:
"85mm DSLR colour photography of a very detailed headshot fitting all of head and hair in frame. [age] year old [nationality] soccer player, with [hair colour] hair and [facial hair or other features] with a small smile, grey background"
3. Remove background of the player face using Remove.bg
4. Save as a PNG as the Player ID (e.g. 200232323) in Football Manager 2023 - Graphics Folder - Faces
5. Update config file / use FMXML to update config file
6. Clear cache in game and reload skin in preferences

Also - I've been putting all of the player faces that I have generated on my patreon if you want to use any of them yourselves
I never thought of using Midjourney for Regens. A great idea.
God I wish someone would make a newgan manager facepack full of midjourney faces
While this doesn't seem difficult, and is really cool, I can't see myself really using this in my own saves, mostly because doing this for all the players would likely take a long long time
Hopefully FM gets a better way of generating inside the game...
This was never a method to replace a facepack, but a way to get way better faces, bespoke to how the players actually look but lifelike.
I don’t want to replace every single newgen in my save with random people.
@@abhiN3127 exactly ❤️
Yeah I think if I did this I'd never sell the players as I wouldn't want to do the process too often but it definitely looks much better and can understand why someone doing RUclips videos or streaming might take the time to do it as, like I said, it does look a lot better
It took me half an hour to do 10 faces, these are the super high grade youth players I’d build my team around going forward. Thanks for doing this Clayts. Just wish I could get ride of the shoulders on the images
Just want to say, thanks Clayts. This is a brill video and I’ve now got my top 4 youth players with real faces. I thought it would be super hard to do, but it’s so easy, and the free sites are so good.
what are some free sites?
Alternatives for midjourney: Playground ai, openart ai,dream ai, and dall e 2
Thank you, playground ai works
Thank you so much I'm been struggling with this for so long and finally comes along and saves me.
really cool, except midjourney doesn't have a free option :(
Spent the last 2 hours trying to work this out and your video saved me thanks!
Hot take, I kind of like terrible faces because I can quickly see who is a newgen 😂 Ideally they could use some other visual to signal that and actually make proper faces.
Yeah I know what you mean. I don’t even really hate the newgen faces and certainly couldn’t get behind doing this for every save. But it’s a nice option.
There are certain versions of the Newgan that let you figure out which players are newgens. For instance, the SAGKRZealand Facepack allows you to choose a facepack in which you can choose your newgens to e wearing a blue Hummel shirt
My man you are a legend this is so much easier than other ways ive seen online, and you get more of a choice this way too! unreal!
Hey brother, thanks for this video! Just spent the last 4 hours updating my entire squad as I’m 8-9 seasons into an 1860 Munich save with a whole roster of Newgens. So satisfying once it’s all completed. Appreciate all your hard work! Really enjoyed to DOF save too!
this is such a game changer, my favorite FM tuber :D !
Maybe FM will incorporate something like this in the future. If it'd then be able to take the information from the player such as age etc we may get dynamically changing portraits as the players age.
I might be a bit addicted to doing this now… it’s actually becoming more fun than playing the game 🙈🤣
Spent last night watching this and looking at my newgens and thinking, they need some tlc. Followed your steps and it's awesome, did take a little while but worth it as for the midjourney creation and bringing them to life!!
I'm a year late, but thanks a million! This really helped me get my RC Celta youth academy players some faces and it really improves the imersion of the game.
that promt is gold good job bro
Thats so helpfull Clayts! Thx for the tip ❤
You are legit a god among men, thankyou Clayts!
Clayts, Quick question. I've been playing around alot and had an idea to start creating faces for FM when women football drops in 25. but all faces midjourney generates of women are....well too attractive. did you come up with any prompts to...delude the results a bit to make them more...rough? or average looking?
Love the idea, but I wish there was a way to apply this to every newgen players in my save 😂
Loved the video! Thank you.
Newgan manager is pretty neat too for regens faces
Great video 😀😀
thank you! will try it out and come back if i struggle
Thank you @Clayts!
Awesome video, thanks a lot!
@Clayts what of the 3 subscription plans are you using? trying to decide witch one to go for
The in game regens are quite ugly to look at with unibrows and stupid squares as beards so this is useful. Also you kind of remind me of James Allcott the way you talk and look. You're like if he ditched the 90s nice guy in the boy band look for a more dark indie solo artist in the late 2000s.
Hahahaha gone
@clayts is there a way on mid journey to get the head shot without the shoulders and have a slightly larger image… also do you put in the specific name of the beard and hair cut type thanks
love this❤
This works on FM24 as well thanks
Very good. But cumbersome if you want to do all regens. Or at least the regens that matter.
You sir, have earned a like. Thank you.
Indeed. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for a step forward for fm24.
@@Clayts Isn't the NewGAN Facepack a little easier to use?
Thank you sir! 🙌
Could you use the NewGAN mod thingy for a new save like you can use the normal sortoitousi cutout mega facepack and use this for the newgens?
The thing is that if you want your squad to be realistic you need to update their faces every season or so otherwise you will have a 30 year old player looking like 17
Hey @Clayts great video but do have a question. I play my fm on the Console version linked to my Xbox and for some reason my Preferences screen doesn't have any of the same options you have, and no tickbox whatsoever regarding 'showing player ID's.' Do you know why this may be and if there's a way round it?
Thanks
Very helpful, thank you!
Quick question. I can't find any face packs for the Highland League but I have several photos of the players from Deveronvale FC
on my computer. Can you add real faces to blacked out real players?
Hope that makes sense? cheers
Yes absolutely
@@Clayts just done it. Cheers :-)
Is there a reason I’m not getting the config file? It comes up as the face in file but I don’t have the face in game. I’ve followed every step
What do I save the file as in the faces folder on a Mac? Great video done everything but get it on the in game save.
I think there are much cheaper and easier ways to do it, such as newGAN manager which does it for all regens at once
But they look…. Not good.
@@Clayts hey when Newcastle United realistic rebuild will be released
@@Clayts Using view from the touchline free face pack is faster and looks almost as good. Not as good granted but free, cheaper and using newGAN can apply them to all newgens makes it more worth it IMO. But, your method quality pictures are a little better so its personal preference
@@Clayts i understand its preference but to say they look "not good" is a bit of a stretch, me personally i think these look clearly ai made and not entirely realistic on top of being an extremly tedious process, marked improvement over the base faces for sure
@@Clayts This is objectively wrong. I find that the faces are all too handsome, because they cut all non-symmetric generated faces. Your method is OK if you only want to do a couple of faces, but is not good for doing all the newgens.
thanks bro
How did you get it to make the images of Eidur Gudjonsen etc?
e.g. I'm sending a picture then making the request afterwards like it looks as though you have, but I'm getting completely unrelated pictures back
What face pack d you use?
I tried this in FM24 and hasn't worked so far, any luck for you if you've tried it Clayts?
thaught i was the only one having this problem. i assumed it was because i didnt put the r- that is on all my regens ID but that didnt seem to fix the problem
Same
@@rafamahardikareswara1065@leroypalmer2981 @callumdunn4426
I had the same problem and worked out how to fix it. Open the 'config' file that the FM XML created.
If given a choice choose to open it in Notepad.
Scroll down and you will see some long numbers, they're the player IDs. Each line on the config should have the player ID listed twice but, if you're having the same issue as I did, the righthand side of the line says "0" instead of the real player ID.
Just copy and paste the player ID from the left and on the right where it says "0" replace it with the player ID
Once this is done save the file and close notepad. Clear cache in game and refresh skin.
Done. This works.
Just open the config and ensure each line repeats the player ID twice, instead of once and then 0.
Please keep in mind your player ID probably starts "r-" followed by a number.
I am copying and pasting this and sending to people who have struggled.
FmXML doesn't work for me neither. But if you edit the config file yourself, it works. You just have to paste the id twice for each player:
(in this line it might be different if you didn't use FMXML)
I hope it helps :)
@@leventeernszt1048 Thank you so much. I was having this exact problem and your solution worked for me perfectly. Thank you!
Hello Bro great videos, can you post a video if you know how to creat action facepack for FOOTBALL MANAGER
Is there a free version of Midjourney?
Not sure why but config file just wont show up in my Custom Faces File. But its there in my faces file that i already have is there a way to generate this file?
hi, in fm24 if i put a picture with a real player id it works but if i put an regen id, didn't work , any help?
This is so good! Does anybody know if there’s anyway to find out ReGen player ID’s on the mobile version of the game please?
trying to do this on FM22 following the same steps on Mac, doesn't seem to be working though :(
I wish I could super like this vid
I can generate and change players fine, but when trying to change my manager face its appearing as blank, ive tried chaging the sizes of the image but with no luck, have you managed to change yours?
Yeah - are you changing your manager face through preferences > change profile picture?
Didnt know the option was there thank you. I was using my ID and following the normal steps for a player. Ive subscribed as the lowest member on MidJourney, is there a limit per month do you know?
@@Clayts
Could probably use bing but this seems like a lot of hassle tbh hopefully fm put this in the game
can u drop config link? because in my computer the config file is nothing.. thx
Does this only work on new saves or does it attach to a current save?
Current/any save
@Clayts great will try this tonight currently 14 years deep and sick of seeing the same faces come through 😂
is that roy kent on the thumbnail? (left)
Don't know if anybody else has asked this, but can this same process be used for applying faces to staff?
Yep
@@Clayts Good to know. No more Mario Balotelli cosplayers as non-league managers!
How hard is it to edit the config file with notepad if you can't use FMXML editor?
Pretty straightforward, just copy one of the other lines and then adjust the ID numbers
Hey Clayts, I don't have a midjourney subscription and it states you can't DM the bot with a imagine prompt in the free trial version, unless I'm doing something wrong...v
I think you send your prompts through in the public discord channels
I followed every step, but in game the face is invisible
There is no reason for fm 24 to not have much better newgen faces - I’ll be super disappointed if it’s still the same shit
Difficult to argue
There's no reason to not have improved defense and goalkeeping for the last X years and yet
once you have the pictures is there any way to age them up as the players get older?
I wonder if you could use prompts to adjust the age of a photo in midjourney - I’ll try it
@@Clayts thank you you’re a legend
Will it work on a MacBook
2 things about why I didn't do this after all (I don't mean to be rude or negative, just my opinion). I don't like the fact that every generated AI face has a different shirt, and second that these nice faces don't actually show up in the 3D match highlights...
You can add a line to the prompt about the shirt - and what do you mean they don’t show up in 3D highlights 😂 how big is your monitor? Cinema size? How are you seeing their faces? I’ve lost my mind at this
@@Clayts I tried to add some lines to the prompt but it didn't work for me...Maybe I did something wrong! I can't see their faces on 3D but I can see their haircuts for example...But again, my way of playing the game...
Try just “in a red kit” and it works great for me. Ah yeah, I see what you mean. That’s not an issue for me because I create the faces based on their in game newgen face anyway.
Sorry dude, But Why not just use de Zealand New gan face pack? It does this on mass and in much less time
Because they don’t look as good, or bespoke to the actual newgen faces.
Guys, to generate some faces MidJourney's discord bot is saying that I have to pay due to extreme demand. Did you manage to do it?
Is this possible for FM 20?
Unfortunately doesnt let me do them without subscribing which is very expensive. Anyone know of a free way to do this?
3:18 i used same prompt on another ai generator and got drag queen
Idk why does it work with the real players but it doesn’t work with the new gens how can i fix it?
you need to add "r-" to them in the config file. Newgen's individual IDs got changed this year to begin with r-
@@Clayts thank you bro you helped a lot 🙏
@@Clayts thank you so much I was looking for this and finally. God bless you
IDs don’t show in my game
its so silly SI dont already do this for newgens
there is no config file what do i do
Just cant get the last part to work got all the way to the stage of getting it over to fm and just cant get it
What part specifically?
@@Clayts all good got it know thanks great video
A lot of faffing around to do just one face though!
Yeah - that’s sort of the point though. Actually turning them into real people, I’m not a fan of just sticking a newgen face pack on suddenly having a bunch of random people suddenly.
But yeah, definitely not a quick fix.
It sadly doesnt work for FM24...does anyone know how to fix it?
It does

@@ProdigioPete Omg, thank you so much, i forgot to add the "r-"...:D
This is pretty time consuming and not very useful if you want to add faces to every newgen in the game
Yes - thanks for that bill
Not allowing free trials right now ! Nooooo
