Due to the release of the Steklo skin for FM14 i've decided to start these up after a few years away. The idea of my backgrounds is to just add a simple bit of colour to your screens whilst still enabling the in game text to be read as clearly as possible. So please don't moan about the style as i will not be changing it!

These are for team screens only.

Sadly there isn't due to the size of the file mate.



Thanks very much, will add it to the list now

Please everyone feel free to add any lower league packs you wish and i will gladly include them in the first post and credit you for making them. Would be great if we was able to get all the playable leagues available! Now i'm staff again i'll probably be taking a big step back from making these, but it would be great if the members could carry it on.

Hey mate. First of all, loving these pictures/backgrounds really gives the game that extra touch!
But I just have one question. How come it is only the English teams that have the stadium background shown on matchdays when the game is ongoing, and not any other teams? Like Real, Barca, Bayern etc.

The main reason was that it takes a long time to make the config files that allow pictures to show on matchdays and in the team overview mini stadium screen. The second was that the UK leagues (well England anyway) are probably the most played leagues in the game so i thought it right to make the pack show on all screens

Ah all right then But do you planning on make these config files to other teams, so at some time it will show on matchdays? Because it looks amazing with the english teams when a game is ongoing

Hi, these look like they'll be amazing. However, when I downloaded the MegaUk pack and tried ti unzip the folder using Express Zip, I have been asked to enter a password. Is this right?

Shouldn't need a password, try downloading a program called 7zip and using that mate.

The MLS ones bug out for me, specifically FC Dallas, Houston Dynamo, and Philadelphia Union.

Plus the FC Dallas pic is another shot of Chicago Fire's Toyota Park. Dallas plays at Toyota Stadium.

You could use this image or this image if it matches you dimensions.

Subbed in my own pics for all three, now only Houston's BG won't load. Hmm, could it be a problem with the XML?

If you're still doing these, one little suggestion (if possible) would be to have a pack of backgrounds for tournaments - EPL, Champions League, World Cup etc. so when the fixtures come up or you look at the table, a particular background shows.

Currently the national team's stadium comes up for league games, which is fine and I quite like that anyway.

I was just thinking it might be nice to have a picture of the trophy, or an artwork/wallpaper using the logo for example;

As I said, it's only a small detail and I should probably just learn how it works and do it myself haha.

Megapack

Pictures should show on team, overview, mini-stadium and matchday backgrounds.

United Kingdom

(Link is now working)

NEW Team Overview Config Files

Replace the existing config files with these to allow the backgrounds to show team overview screens

Hiya mate, Downloaded your UK megapack and the new configs but I'm not sure exactly where to put them? Also I couldn't see a config for UK countries?

Thanks

Open the file and inside you'll see a folder which contains another group of files. You have to open each file and just copy over the correct config to the matching folder in your FM graphics. So open the Austria file and copy the config inside it to the Austria pack you downloaded from here (if you have that pack of course).

There's not one for the UK as that pack does not need one, it only contains configs for the packs that do not show on team overview screens.

All single packs are no longer available, instead there is a megapack which can be found here http://sortitoutsi.net/forums/topic/11088/backgrounds-megapack-support#comment_157781
