Help Long load times with faces pack?

[CGurrell]

Hello, 

I wanted to preface this with the fact I'm quite new to the modding community but have been playing FMM since FM17. 

I recently discovered modding and have installed logo, real team name, and face packs. With the logo and name packs my load time is about the same as usual, maybe a touch longer, but with a face pack it's over 2 minutes to get into the game. 

Is this normal, or are there workarounds where the faces can be cached by the game? 

For reference, I'm on android 14 on a Google Pixel 6 Pro. 

Cheers, 

Chris

Weird, mine gets stuck on this screen for 2 or 3 minutes every time. 

Where did you put your files when copying them over? Wonder if I've put mine in the wrong place and they aren't getting cached or something

 

EDIT: Added file location attachments too

I put mine after application support, then made a graphics file. Did it the once that load thing or when SI do a update. Never had a problem.

Weirdly if I use Shizuku to try and access that directory I can read the files but get access denied whenever I try to copy anything into there or even create a folder. 

I may try via Windows later on and see if I have any luck. Cheers for the help!

Just tried with X-Plore to create a folder and this is the error I get when I try. I may just root at this point 😂

How strange, never had a problem for me setting up files, I am on the s20 though, so that maybe why

So with the files moved into documents/graphics instead of just in graphics, I force stopped the game, cleared the cache via the apps menu, loaded (took ages), rebooted, loaded again, literally less than a second on that screen and I'm in with all packs loaded. All seems absolutely sound now. Bizarre! 

Thanks for the help mate!
