`Just wondering if any of the usuals are gonna be putting together new updates trainers and jockeys potraits ?

I been working on this this evening i just have Flat trainers left to resize then i am done that will be done tomorrow at the moment i have done the Following.

Flat Jockeys ( you cant always get pictures of minor jockeys so what i have done is this i have Edited the Jockeys and took the ones out that i couldn't find any good images of and ones i dont want and replaced these with some top Irish Jockeys and some what i call legends of the flat i.e Lester Piggot,Steve Cauthen,Willie Carson,Greville Starkey,Richard Fox,Edward Hide,Joe Mercer and Geoff Lewis )

Flat Trainers (Has Above some top irish flat trainers and some old legends like Dick Hern,Guy Harwood,Ian Balding etc.)

Jump Jockey (has above some top irish jockeys plus some legends Richard Dunwoody,Peter scudamore,Hywel Davies,John Francome,Brendan Powell etc.)

Jump trainers (has Above Some Top Irish Trainers plus fred Winter,Capt Tim Forster,David Nicholson,Jenny Pitman,Gordan Richards Peter Beaumont.)

Sounds Good Mate But Wud I Have to start a new game for this to take effect? and plus once all the ''well known'' and most used jockeys and trainers are there like the new ones john ferguson and all that sounds great

yah me 2 ? maybe just upload to site mate send to mark or DB and im sure they will put them up for downlaod its weasier for every1 this way including urself

Ok found a way its mediafire Bill I sent you a e-mail explaining what to do.

how do i get them in my game they look great

1 First all you should create a New Folder and name it Back up to put your files you need to take out just in case it goes pear shape ok Click computer then your hard drive then Program Files then Starters Orders 5 then click into your data file then click in number 1 file this is where all the uk jockeys trainers are you need to copy both the Jockey And Trainer_dat files and put these in the back up folder safely away you will now need to delete these files from this folder and put the two data files Jockeys and Trainers in here from my file thats all you need to do for the data.

2 Photos are easier to do as above Click computer then your hard drive then Program Files then Starters Orders 5 then click into your GFX file then into portraits then into your Number 1 File you should have three folders Courses Trainers and Jockeys all you do is copy all the photos and paste them into the right folder and your done start a new game and you should see all the changes and photos of all the trainers and jockeys.

P.s your saved games will still work except for some reason the jumps saved game all you do is swap the Jockey_dat file back to the original i will be working on this today to see why the flat saved games works fine and not the jumps but it only takes two mins to swap the jockeys file but all works fine with new games you start.

Thank you for this, it really adds a different dimension to the game.

Does anybody know how to edit your own picture so that you can add the potrait of yourself?

Yes it is possible you have to edit the Jockey_dat file and and edit to put your name in then upload a picture of yourself and copy and paste it in the jockeys portraits folder read my post above on how to do that but heres is one i have done and remember it will only work in new games you start.

I've posted my UK/trainer portraits in this mods section if you want to download it. Look for "Graham's UK trainers and jockeys" thread.

By the way, I think this thread should be entitled "Portraits".
