Do Not Delete Your Incoming Logo's In Image Manager!!!

[KeithMajors]

It seems we have figured out another reason for caws having blank logo's. My bud dre41's recent uploads have all been 100% blank so there was no logo's or faces so I asked him if he deleted his incoming logo's in image manager and he said yes he had. So after some research it seems that the logo's in incoming/image manager are attached to your caw and creators need to keep them in incoming logo's so when downloaders download there caws the logo's come with.

After we figured this out dre re imported all his logo's back in the game replaced them on his caw and re uploaded then when downloaded his caw was perfect and had all it's logo's. And yes dre knows about the blank glitch in creation and not to edit to resize or move the logo to avoid the blank glitch so he had not done this. So this was something else and once we figured it was deleting the logo's in image manager then re uploading after the images were re downloaded into the game and back in the image manager his caw was fine. So it seems that this is the issue some might be having so do not ever delete your incoming logo's in image manager as it appears to be like 2k16 were they are attached and this will avoid the 100% blank logo's and face issue.

And yes I am aware that it says these logo's will automatically be delete in a few days. But for some reason that does not happen I still have logo's from 10 days ago so there either attached or 2K must absorb them into there server after they are automatically deleted or something like that which does not happen maybe 2k is so busy with everything else they are not doing this.  I think this might be a way for 2k to minimize the data on there server. So be sure to never delete your incoming logo's in image manager going forward and follow the do not edit to resize or move rule and all blank logo issues should stop.

Thanks everyone in this community loves wrestling and wrestling games and so do I so I try to help when I can. Plus this was easy enough to figure out as he had some already uploaded caws that were fine and had all there logo's and faces but after he deleted all those logo's in incoming logo's image manager everyone who downloaded those caws after that got 100% blank caws without logo's or faces so it was easy to see the correlation between the two.

And yes dre knows about the blank glitch in creation and not to edit to resize or move the logo to avoid the blank glitch so he had not done this. 

 

What glitch are you referring to here? i would like to try and get both issues resolved but need to understand the issue. any info you can provide would be appreciated

[Saturi]

Someone linked this to caws.ws and since I already had the issue I came here to check it out.

What worries me about the whole thing though is that even if that should be the cause or one of the causes and even if we wouldn't delete the Images from the Image downloader, according to the info shown on the downloader, the Images will be deleted automatically from the Image downloader after a while so even if we don't delete them ourselves, they will be gone after a while which could cause the same issue for everyone that downloads our caws.

As a sidenote: One of  my caws I had uploaded only like 2 days after the early release of the game and the Images on the Image downloader weren't there in the beginning, they only started to show up like a week ago.

So can it be that ti's a Problem that is caused by several different things all together?

2k is well informed about the creation glitch as we have told them. I'm guessing you have not read my post about this just 2 post down. So here

If they were deleted automatically then great as they should be but I have logo's that are from 11 days ago so they are not automatically deleted. If they were then I would assume 2k has adsorbed them into there server otherwise they would not still be there. Plus the same thing happened in 2k16 if you deleted your logo's in image manager. Also even if they are deleted from there maybe uploading a caw to CC places your logo's there too.

And there's only 2 issues if you follow these as a creator then everything will be fine.

 First do not delete incoming logo's in image manager and this has been proven again as dre had made guy's he had not uploaded yet but deleted all there logo's in incoming logo's in image manager . So a few hours ago he tried uploading as is and again blank everything logo's and face so again he re imported new logo's in game replaced the old kept those in incoming image manager and re uploaded and his caw was fixed that's 3 in a row now so that's proof enough.

And this the after you place a logo never go back in and edit to resize or move the logo as it will be glitched blank. Read this post.

So seeing we know how to avoid and fix it's evidence enough these are the cause's and I have not come across any other so i'd say it's just these 2 reason why this happens so follow these 2 rules dont delete logo's from incoming logo's image manager + never edit to resize or move an already applied logo or face.

Like I said, until a week ago the logos were deleted from the Image downloader automatically after we downloaded them (or at least they didn't show up on the downloader for me anymore).

Another thing is that as long as they don't patch this issue and even if we work with the Workaround you suggested right now, after the Images from the Image downloader will be deleted automatically (according to the info on it), the same issue will be caused.

Only had this issue on WWE2K18 so far too so I didn't knew it happen in the previous game at all.

Thanks a lot for the help though, I will try it out.

EDIT: Wondering if the same issue is caused when one deletes the logos from the Image downloader after they finished downloading locally withoug having used them on any caws yet.

How about after you uploaded your caw to CC. Because mine were gone too then I uploaded to CC and the logo's were back and if they were automatically deleted then I would assume they are actually on the 2k server seeing there not being automatically deleted then I assume there not on the 2k server so therefore not on the caw. If that makes sense.

And what you or anyone does is up to them. But everyone who has followed these instruction has not had any blank issues so I think that speaks for itself.

I would have to say yes as it's basically the same thing. When you upload to CC if the logo is not in incoming logo's image manager then that logo will be blank for the downloader.

And ya in 2k16 when you uploaded to CC the image was part of your image manager and if deleted then it was blank for downloaders. I found that out the hard way as I thought it be good to clean up my logo's but ruined all my caws.

After the patch after downloading a logo it goes away from the image manager. 

 

I know 2k doesn’t expect me to download the 300 plus logos sitting in my Manager so they can go away when I finally delete them?

So it works the way it did in the beginning again?

Then the whole issue probably begun after the official release and further when the Image downloader kept the Images and we deleted them?

Had two caws released and no Images from them in the Image downloader and they worked Prior to that so this must be the whole issue?

Would be interesting to see if a totally new created caw has the issue now or if maybe the patch indeed fixed this issue.

That's great news that eliminates one issue just dont forget the do not edit to resize or move a logo or face after you already put it on a caw. So never go back in and your logo wont glitch blank. I know they have not fixed that yet.

I wouldn't delete anything in there just let them delete themselves if they have not already.

This makes a lot of sense, but seems like a ridiculous thing for them to keep in place. Seeing how some CAW-makers piece their logos together in dozens of tiny pieces, this would seem like a nightmare when trying to build a new CAW and scrolling through every other logo you've used before to get to the new ones.

[mrblacksheep]

Anything i do have to end up editing, I delete, save and go back and then place it. I delete any logos not being used at all in my upcoming.

[NickBreaker]

Lads, I'm so confused - are my caws on CC fucked up then?

No editing and moving logos once they're placed is just ridiculous.

I can handle not deleting incoming logos- it's not an issue.

This is madness.

You might have to check yourself if people haven't told you that they're messed up or not. If you have a second account, download those CAWs you made or have a friend download them and see if the logos show up or not.

Just a quick question; since I deleted all my incoming logos a few days ago, I realized all my caws have been affected. In order to fix it, I must reupload all the logos and replace them with the old ones. But what about the face texture? Does this mean I must remake the face from scratch?

Unfortunately yes. Write down your layers first like head sizes ect.... That will help a little and be fixed quickly. but ya you must re do everything else from scratch.

What a hell of a bug, thanks though, looks like that's what I'll be fixing this weekend

[Defract]

I took pretty drastic measures and deleted everything logo wise. Fortunately the left the entrances move-sets, body morphs all intact. Working back through my creations now but so far so good. I also resized logos after placing to test and nothing missing so far.

[mrblacksheep]

It's always nice to have 2 profiles so you can quickly switch to the other one and download your new content to check if anything is missing. I've done that to all my caws and the only had 1 issue. (in which @KeithMajors notified me about). That way you can see what's missing and remove those caws from cc an fix the issues. It's ridiculous people even need to go to these lengths. I could deal with not deleting logos off upcoming logos but not editing logos will get tiring real quick.

That's what I do.

Well that's good hopefully the patch helped with this. For us on Xbox we have not gotten the patch yet. Also the edit glitch seems to have been fixed in 2k17 on the PS4 but it never was on the Xbox. So who ever reads this comment remember which console your on as they act different.
