A description of what Face Maker is, how to get Face Maker and how to use it.
Solution:
Face Maker is a way for players who own Hoyle CDs to create faces for themselves by selecting from a wide range of pre-created art. While all Flipside.com Hoyle players can view the faces created by others, only people who own Hoyle CDs can choose Face Maker faces for their picture. Face Maker faces are stored in the directory C:\PROGRAM FILES\WON\FACEMAKER. The files that contain the individual faces are in this directory and have a .FAC extension. These are small files that are easy to trade with your friends via e-mail.
If you own a Hoyle CD released in fall 1999 or later -- these products have Face Maker clearly labeled on the box -- you can create faces using your CD product, and then choose any of your faces for all to see when playing on the Hoyle Channel.
If you own an older Hoyle CD, you cannot make faces, but you can still use the Face Maker faces provided by Hoyle, or faces given to you by friends who do have Face Maker-capable CDs when playing through Flipside.com.
To create faces; start a single-player game of Hoyle and under the player picture choose Custom. This will launch the Face Maker editor allowing you to customize your player face. When you have finished the face, click the Save button and type a name to identify the file. When you return to the Sign In screen you can cycle through the faces that have been created. Since all the Face Maker capable products share the same files you will have access to these faces both in single player and when playing through Flipside.com.
i dunno.... but it seems like you have to start an off-line single player game off the cd in order to launch the face maker..... the hoyle single player games through flipside do not have player faces to customize.... i wonder if it's even worth the effort.... has anyone actually used it?
