FM22 Facepack Installation
This part of the guide will cover
how to install FM22 facepack.
After you have downloaded the FM22 facepack, you will notice that the file comes in .rar format (it’s large in size with more than 3.99GB, so be sure you have enough space on your PC/Mac before downloading).
Rar file requires you to download software to extract the files; the below software is recommended:
- Windows:
- WinRar (Choose the most recent .exe)
- macOS:
To install The Unarchiver, simply double click on the .zip file you download from their website, then drag the program it extracts (called ‘The Unarchiver’) into your apps folder.
Once installed, create a new folder somewhere you can keep track of (on your desktop, for instance) and place your downloaded graphics rar in it.
Now we extract:
- Windows:
- Right-click on your rar. Choose WinRar from the menu, then select ‘Extract Here’.
- macOS X:
- Right-click (or ctrl + click) on your zip, rar or 7z. Choose ‘open with’ then select ‘The Unarchiver’.
Locating Your User Data Location
Once you have downloaded and extracted your files, you now need to move them over to your User Data Location so they can be read by the game.
First, make sure you have run the game at least once (just getting to the start menu and exiting is fine) so the game can create the required folders for you.
The default location of your User Data Location will be slightly different depending on the OS you are using;
- Windows:
-
C:\Users\
\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\graphics
-
Mac OS X: - Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive
- [message]
- Read if you’re a Mac OS user.
-
By default, this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as
follows:
Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar.
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ ->’ Football Manager 2022’
So to clarify, putting custom data (editor data, graphics and/or skins) in the “normal” Documents folder won’t work.
After you have opened the Football Manager 2022 folder, you should see a list
of folders and what you need to do is locate the folder called
graphics. If this folder doesn’t exist, just create a new folder
and call it graphics.
Now open up your graphics folder and place the folder you extracted inside it.
Once you have added the graphics you wanted to the correct destination, load up the game and follow the steps;
Now open up your graphics folder and place the folder you extracted inside it.
