Have never had problems with kits, logos, badges...........
Got new PC, so started over completely fresh - on FM14 now got all the badges, logo's etc I want - am playing at Wolfsburg and can I get any kits to work, no - tried everything I can think of and everything I have done successfully in the past and nothing will work.

Am not a novice at this, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, can someone just take me through, step by step how to get kit downloads to work on FM14 - literally a complete idiots guide as now I am starting to doubt myself!!!!

Thanks guys

yeah, seem to be, got club badges, comp logo's etc all ok - don't use facepacks yet for fear of clogging up the PC as the file sizes seem massive - on previous FM14 save had kits working fine, but got new PC now and just seem to have a problem with kits now

ok to walk you through it, downloaded kit files to-

my documents/sports interactive/football manager 2014/graphics/pictures/kits.

if any of the files above don't exist (such as 'graphics' one), create them.

in game, go into 'preferences' and then 'interface'. make sure that the 'use cache to decrease...' is unticked and 'reload skin when...' is ticked.

I would redownload one of the kit files (maybe the german one) from this site and try that on its own. placing it in the 'kit' file. let me know if that works.

yeah done all that, no joy - am wondering if I am doing the right thing when the file originally downloads as a .rar? What I have done is send that to a compressed file so it appears with the zipped icon, then extract all, so I end up with three files if you like in the Kits file for one kit

It's probably best if you post a screenshot of your kits folder so we can see clearly what might possibly be the case.

Press print screen on your keyboard, paste it to paint, save it and upload it to imgur, photobucket or any other image hosting site.

what I tend to do is when I've downloaded a zipped file, I go to my 'downloads', click on the file then extract it to my desktop so I can look at it to sort the files I need. then I just move or cut and paste it into the correct folder, in this case, 'kits'.
