Ignore previous message, just had a look at the thread you mentioned.....Looks like we have a lot of new faces for next year. Hope all my scans and builds work or i'm going to have a lot of work to do when game comes out
If you use PS3, set-up a second profile and copy your edit data across (you just need to copy the main edit file and any face scans).
When the new game comes out, on the spare profile, go to edit and then import data from previous game.
Then copy the players over to one of the spare teams, export it and then import again.
It's still a hassle, but takes less time than putting them all in again from scratch.
