Bobble Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I have started working on some FaceGen faces for BBCF. I thought I'd preview them here to see if there is any interest. Attachment attached (hopefully). Comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augielio Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 FaceGen Faces These look very good. I would certainly download a set, if it were available. Be aware that a user has posted links to a complete set of faces derived from actually people from a number of sports and walks of life. Many BBCF players are using it. Again, these look really good. How many fictitious variations can you create with this program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamTeams Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Bobble, you are one of the best. Please follow through with this project. It's excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted March 15, 2006 Author Share Posted March 15, 2006 [QUOTE=augielio] Again, these look really good. How many fictitious variations can you create with this program?[/QUOTE] Infinite, theoretically. The program generates random faces or you can customize them. I've even made hobbits, dwarves, and orcs for OOTP baseball with it. See attached (The faces are from FaceGen. The unis are from Deft's template).

augielio Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 FaceGen Faces and Face Packs 1. The availability of the TPF face packs was announced on this forum by "GaryStephen" (entry #18 in the discussion about facepacks started by "Gorgonian." In it, you are advised to download the facepacks (for different positions) from megaupload.com. 2. Cooleyvol, if you can get this to work, let me know or save the the facepacks. I had all of GaryStephen's TFP face downloaded and working in the game, then I had a hard drive crash, and had to start over from scratch, and I can't get megalupload to give me the faces.

Bobble Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 I had toyed with the idea of making my facepack compatible with GaryStephen's real photos but he seems to jump around in the numbering scheme. Looks like it will just have to be either or. Meanwhile for the short term, I've decided that I'll just duplicate some of the current faces I've made as placeholders for future work so I can continue my offseason (the game only assigns pictures to files that currently exist and I'd like my next batch of recruits to start selecting from new faces). As an update, I've got about 25 faces in the last couple of days. Most of them are QBs and RBs. I figure they're more likely to get exposure and more likely to need a variety of faces. How many times have you looked up your OTs compared to your starting QB after all? My initial thought is to release the facepack when I've got about 200. That would double the number of faces that come with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colbster Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I have the facegen program and would love to make some faces for own enjoyment in the game, but I have a question for you... How do I add the hair/assessories to it? All it gives me are long and short "Bob" hair or something like that... :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 [QUOTE=Colbster]How do I add the hair/assessories to it? All it gives me are long and short "Bob" hair or something like that... :|[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's the tough part. FaceGen's hair is abysmally poor. Not even usuable IMO. You can either grab pictures out there of hair you want (at the right angle, etc.), crop that image, and put it as a layer over the image FaceGen creates, OR, I created a hair tutorial over on the OOTP bulletin boards here: [url]http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/board/showthread.php?t=71039&page=8&highlight=hair+tutorial[/url] It was for guys with hats but the same idea applies if you're doing full heads of hair. This method would probably work better for facial hair (which I haven't quite gotten into yet). So far, I've grabbed hair examples from pix out there on the internet. Luckily, the Bowl Bound pictures are looking straight at you and there are a fair number of examples you can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted March 28, 2006 Author Share Posted March 28, 2006 BTW, I have made up 100 new faces, each in 3 different poses. Who is hosting mods around here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galaril Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Did this get hosted or is it dead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TazzMetal Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 [QUOTE=galaril]Did this get hosted or is it dead?[/QUOTE] I'll second that. Would love to get a hold that new set of faces, diversity is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 [QUOTE=galaril]Did this get hosted or is it dead?[/QUOTE] I haven't found a anyone to host. Maybe I should get Sally Struthers to help me out, "These BobbleHeads need a home. Won't you please help?" It isn't dead, though. I think I'm up to about 120 individuals, 360 seperate pix. Nice to know people are interested. I'll keep working on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamTeams Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Definately still interested. Hope someone will host them soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Well, guys, I sent it to Bowlbound.net. I don't know if that site is still active or not. Let's see what happens.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyvol Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 This is the first file sent to me for BB.net. I'll get the site up and going, but would like all the other mods that have been created if the authors don't mind sending them to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryStephen Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 [QUOTE=Bobble]I had toyed with the idea of making my facepack compatible with GaryStephen's real photos but he seems to jump around in the numbering scheme.[/QUOTE] Yeah, sorry about that. I didn't have any reason for jumping around number-wise; it happened because a lot of times I had to assign a number to a new picture and I didn't know what numbers were free, so I just jumped ahead to a number I knew wasn't in use. Renaming the files was the most tedious part of the job. The only numbering convention I stuck to was the game's 001-499 and 500-999 ranges for skin colors, as explained in some of my previous posts. [I]Edited to add[/I]: Also, I made sure not to use numbers that would have overwritten any of the faces that came with the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any white faces I added were 001-499 and any black were 500-999. I also made sure that I didn't overwrite any faces already there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSUfan Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I downloaded the file for faces. How do I apply it to the game? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobble Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 [QUOTE=FSUfan]I downloaded the file for faces. How do I apply it to the game? :confused:[/QUOTE] There's a readme.txt file in the zip. Put them in your Bowl Bound/graphics/fac folder. At the next off-season, the recruits will be given faces from those files as well (which you will then see the NEXT off season when you recruit those newly generated gentlemen).

Bobble Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 I'm back. With the move to Steam, I decided to fire up BBCF again. And, I dug through and found my old additional Facegen faces. They are attached if anyone wants to use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
