Fleet Carrier's crew has changed

Greetings, I'm facing the issue that all my crew members on my fleet carrier have changed. They have the same names, but they looks different. How can I bring back my good old team? I don't know these guys.

This is really weird and confusing. I was rolling the randomizer for some time to find these great guys. But they all are gone :(
Anyone has the same issue?
Thanks.

Yup, same here. All my crew had really cool sunglasses. Spent a lot of time on them, too. No idea how or why this changed...and all the new people are very samey. Sad, really.

I noticed sunglasses has disappeared yesterday - before the patch - so I gave my new ones ordinary glasses. Then after patch 11 I can't give them glasses at all ...

When I switch back to Horizons they're all still there. This is turning into a very strange game.

My guess is that they tried to fix the persistent NPC in the comms window and that somehow borked all the other NPC's.

I has a theory. They said you would now see your crew around your carrier (not that I have so far, even the bartender isn't the same person in the hiring screen). So they have changed the crew face gen from what was used to generate faction rep portraits to what is used to generate someone you might see like our SLF pilots. Still the variation seems really small; I see the same faces repeating all the time. Given how many variables there are in holome I'd thought they could do better. 🤷‍♂️

Are you sure? I thought that but then realised I was on one of my other FC - the bartender looks like my crew pic (I think).

Just searched for this thread. I too am facing this issue in Odyssey. It’s really annoying because you invest time in your team and crew, for them just to morph in to someone completely different!
Interestingly, in the weekly upkeep message, it’s my old crew’s face that appears there.
Messed up!

Most probably the 3d renderer that turns that mugshot into an actual 3d rendered NPC has some limitations or is missing some features
Hence in Odyssey cycling NPC will produce a really low variance and you can easily end up with the exact face in every station - a scenario that i never managed to get in Horizons no matter how many times i rolled those npc to get mugshots that were esthetically pleasing (and i can be really patient )
