Do you guys load those Club Logos/Badges/Jerseys and Players graphics or simply play with whatever the game comes with?

I always port over from previous fm then just update them when new one comes out.

U re-path it from the current year to the previous yeah (changing the folder name) or do you copy/move to the current year folder?

Just copy & paste your old graphics folder with logos, player faces etc. to the new FM19 folder. Problem solved

I have been doing this for the past editions but along the year, the downloads are now quite huge ... 15GB++ and if continue to download "newer" Facepacks and other updated graphics ...... it may sooner or later shoot to 20GB++ and above.

Copy and paste is no issue just take time and of course must ensure HDD got sufficient space.

Just wonder would it work by simply stop playing the previous edition (2018) and first rename the current edition (2019) to 2019-Temp then rename the 2018 to 2019. This would save the copy/move time.

Are your fm folders not located in the same hdd? I just simply cut and paste over my graphics folder and delete fm18 folder.

I usually run fm the first time to let it generate the folders first. Transfer is instance since they are located in my same drive.

Yes, they are the same. As I might still want to continue with FM18 for a while so either duplicate or play FM19 only when I decided that's it for FM19.

Why are we not starting a FM19 new thread? :s12:

If it is in the same Sports Interactive folder, just simply cut your current 'graphics' files and paste into the FM 1x 'graphics' folder you wanna play. Save much time and space on your PC

All Bros who have played the Beta, is it a worthy upgrade to FM19 from the previous versions?

Well it looks clean so far to me. I really like the new Training and Tactics screen. I purchased it to support SI Games Developpers every year :) (was only 24 US-Dollars for me)
This year the reviews on Steam is very positive on this game - Metascore at 87.
But FM17 or FM18 should be sufficient and you don't need to upgrade for now. Save your money and wait for FM20.

No. Fastest way is to rename the new 2019 folder to 201x then rename the 2018 to 2019. I do not even need to perform cut and paste.

This is another good solution, which could work.
Downloaded skins, editor files and saves from 2018 cannot be used in FM19 though.
