I've tried this myself before and haven't found a way to do it so far. The method that worked in previous games where you just add ch*.pac files with the IDs of these My Career placeholder NPCs to the pac\ch\ directory doesn't work anymore this year for some reason. Maybe one has to remove them from another file first, chcommon.pac, chetc.pac, chetc_p10.pac, chetc_p30.pac, chetc_p40.pac and chheads.pac may be good candidates to begin the research

I actually thought that bumping the post would help get it noticed faster, and thus moved to a different topic(I keep forgetting about the report button..).  I will refrain from trolling the wrong posts/insults from now on I guess.... it was just.... fun

chheads.pac has them.

In theory though if  you make a file that's later alphnumerically like chz### then the game should read it after the chheads file without having to modify that file.

I've tried that before and it wouldn't override it for some reason. I'm unsure why.

Shame, I was looking to replace wrestlers like Jayden Jett with Kota Ibushi to give it that true performance center feel..

Try this (back up the files you remove).

To remove them completely (to use the slots for mods).

Remove chheads.pac from ch folder and then head to edit/ch and remove all the pac files.

You will now have to create new characters for ch501, 502, 503 and 507, you can place these either back in the edit folder or indeed in your ch folder, the game will find them.

I don't believe 482 and 504 are used so they are now free to replace too.

I have not tested this as I don't play My Career but it could work in theory.

I wonder if doing this would that mess with Edit/Create superstar. I'll try some time later when I get the chance.

back up and delete the chheads file from the ch folder too.

This wont stop them appearing in the character select screen, this would involve deleting their pofo and moveset too.

Again I stress I do not play my career so I have no idea if this would cause a crash or other problems in my career if you replaced them with a different character model.

My friend, i delete complete the chhead from ch folder, sure i delete.......and also me too don't play in my career i have not problem if my carrer doesen't workk.........................but, also if i delete chheads still the carachter in the game, if i put for example jeff hardy mod ch file,  still in the game Barron Blade, is assolutly incredible...

[napolenehotel]

@Perfectplex  and @Cave Waverider  or @pozzum my friend have you new about the possibility to overwrite the superstr on my carrer (like barron blade ecc..) with superstar mod? i try many time, i did every step of perfect plex told me, but it's incredible still in the game the barron blade superstar, change only the attirebut not the body.....if you have some new tell me i really want delete this useless superstar and use them slots with render, for modded superstar......i don't use my carrer so i want know how is possible overrite them

[AznBlusuazn]

I've tried this for a few hours this week. I can confirm that even removing chheads, our good friend Baron Blade still appears in 482 and 507. My thought is maybe he is embedded into the core game?  I looked through every pac that wasn't a standard ch to no success. Alternatively his ch might be embedded elsewhere in another folder inside of another pac?

[napolenehotel]

@AznBlusuazn   nice to meet you my friend...............very appreciate for me your hard work.....maybe is the same that i did, i can't undestand how is possible that the career superstar still appear in the game! If you discovery something, tell me how is possible ok ? really appreciate

Yes definitely!  I haven't given up on it.  If it develops, I will definitely let you know.
