Extract the 7z file (you may need winrar or 7zip) into your skins folder (this should be Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2013/skins).

If you don't have a skins folder, just create it, and make sure the steklo_x3 and steklo_x3fmc folder inside the 7z file is placed directly inside the skins folder, and not a subfolder of it.

If you've got a previous version, go back to the default skin, then delete the old steklo_x3 folders before installing the new version

Grrr, my game is not picking up any data from my skins folder for some reason, does not recognize the skin is there.

Edit: a word.

Do I need to load the skin from inside the full save game? I'm on the title screen right now, I'll give it a shot.

Yes, the skin needs to be loaded from inside a save game, not available from the title screen for me. Looks great! I have been waiting for this one!

It should work from the start screen. What's the exact path of the steklo_x3 folder?

That's fine, I think the game remembers what you did last and only shows skins for that game mode in the start screen preferences

I don't think sidebar skins are going to be possible in FM13. I'll probably have a go at it at some point, but I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Looks great apart from two things - the text when you select a tab seems to be blurred (it looks like there's a white shadow on the text)? You can see it in your screenshots, e.g. 'Profile' on the Ronaldo one or 'Schedule' on AFC Wimbledon. Is this intended? Also, the text on the right of the player attributes page is grey - see here.

thanks a lot! great skin...... but i just noticedt a little thing that doesnt really fit. in player attributes screen, beside the attributes...some things are hardly readable( goalkeeper rating, condition, last 5 games...) could you please tell me how i can change colour for these?

another question: is it possible to include a panel for the stadium pics?


I think you made an awesome skin here..thanks a lot

Bugger, I knew I'd miss something. I'll try and find the setting for those, but they aren't always easy to find.

fwiw I got rid of the weird blur/shadow by just deleting

<list id="shadows">
<record>
<integer id="x_offset" value="0"/>
<integer id="y_offset" value="1"/>
<integer id="blur_radius" value="0"/>
<integer id="colour_red" value="255"/>
<integer id="colour_green" value="255"/>
<integer id="colour_blue" value="255"/>
<integer id="colour_alpha" value="180"/>
</record>
</list>


in the sub_tabs_selected.xml in the fonts folder.

edit: As suggested by Magic, I changed the settings.xml file to

<colour name="special attribute label" red="255" green="255" blue="255" />
<colour name="profile extra text" red="255" green="255" blue="255" />
<colour name="result score" red="255" green="255" blue="255"/>


from the original values, which were grey, which solved it.

To get rid of the blurry bits on the subtabs, just pop the contents of this file into the steklo_x3/fonts folder, and reload the skin

Not yet, that's a text colour setting I've got to hunt down.

It's a 7z file, just like the main skin. If you've downloaded that, then you should be able to download the mini-fix
