If you are installing cyberface patches for created players, you will need to change the appropriate PLAYERPKG values.

1. Save your rosters
2. Install the cyberface patch to the appropriate folder
3. Edit players.dbf. Change the PLAYERPKG for the appropriate player.
4. Start the game, re-load the roster file

The player should now be using the appropriate cyberface.

If you're installing a cyberface update for a player that is already in the game, then I'd say you've installed the cyberface patch incorrectly.

The file you need to edit is players.dbf. I suggest editing a saved roster (which can be found in your saves folder), so that the changes can be easily re-loaded.

hey all the cyber faces work :) awesome, and i gotr a question, if i copy the "Player" file from one of my saves, and paste it into another save file, like my dynasty (where the roster is different, so i could have the cyberfaces on my dynasty 2) will it make anny difference in the roster?"

There's a chance you could mess up your Dynasty game.

1. Make a backup of your Dynasty
2. Ensure that the player you are copying has a unique PLAYERID.
3. Ensure that he does not share the same ROSTERPOS as another player on the team.
