Scorpio v2.1 for FM 2015

400,396 1,394 27,520

Thanks to DazS8, Jubez, TomDixon77, Sortitoutsi community and DazS8 FM Graphics Group

This skin is designed for 1920x1080 resolution. It should work with other resolutions but I don't test every single panel with every possible resolution. The skin has a small sidebar version and a DF11 facepack compatible version. If you're using a smaller resolution I'd recommend using the small sidebar version.

IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE POSTING!
If you have an issue please read the comments to see if it has already been fixed. Also make sure you have updated to the newest version.
If something doesn't display correctly please post:

Your screen resolution

If you're running full screen or windowed

A screenshot of the issue

I will NOT fix issues related to using different zoom levels. If you use any zoom level other than 100% you will have problems.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME A PM if it is about an issue you are having with the skin as it is much better if all issues are posted publicly so that other people with the same issue can see my reply.

Installation Instructions

Step 1

Download the skin. Make sure you delete any old Scorpio folders.

Step 2

Extract the files (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Move the folders inside into your skins folder:

Win Vista/7/8: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2015\skins
Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2015\skins
Mac OS X: /Users/<username>/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/skins

Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.

DO NOT COPY THE CONTENTS OF THE SMALL SIDEBAR AND DF11 FOLDERS INTO THE SCORPIO FOLDER

Step 3

Start the game and go to Preferences screen and Interface tab.
You should see "Scorpio”, "Scorpio (DF11)" and "Scorpio (Small Sidebar)” as options in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
Choose the version you want.

Hit the Confirm button.

It's for the DF11 facepack. The only thing I can think of is if you delete the 'Scorpio' folder, re-download v1.7 and apply the 15.2 fix

Yeah that works. Thanks for your help

The skin is no longer appearing in the preferences even after deleting and reinstalling the skin a few times. it is a shame since this is a really nice skin to play fm15.

Have you figured out the new codes for those grey bars above and below the calender in the processing screen yet? The ones marked with red in this screenshot:

Seems like the panel frames are much more stark now - with the white/silver border things really stick out more than they did before, and the contract between light/dark is REALLY bad after awhile.

Not sure I love the new header gradient / font. Looks slick, but again, when you're staring at it for so long.

All said and done - still slick, just think the contrast is harsh.

Lastly - in the match screen there's a big gap between the windows & frames (see attachment). The stark background / panel & button outlines is really shown here too. Such stark contrast, my eyes say ow!

All that being said though I love the skin and I know it's a labor of love for you guys!

Running: Windows 2160x1440 (surface pro 3 native res). Happens windows/full screen. Zoom is 125% but happens at zoom 100% too.

What about reading at least two pages of this thread before asking for help? It's been guided through for several times already and you will find the answer from the thread already.

You've made changes to the skin and messed up the graphics files.

Rename 'Scorpio.xml' to 'skin_config.xml' and add this line to that file: <string id="skin_name" value="Scorpio" />

My face pics are working fine. Check to see if your face pics work on the default skin first, it's likely an issue with your face pack.

Hi, this part of the skin doesn't have a panel. It is right? How can I add a panel?

Bergkamp player stats uses different files for the background than the other panels. By default it uses the files at boxes/custom/plain/standard/paper while other panels use the files in graphics/boxes/subsection/standard.

There's two ways to fix it. The easy way would be to copy the "paper" and "paper@2x" files from Scorpio/graphics/boxes/subsection/standard/ into Scorpio/graphics/boxes/custom/plain/standard/

The other way, which I would do it, would be opening the bergkamp player stats.xml in the panels folder and changing the <container id="pslt" class="plain_box" appearance="boxes/custom/plain/standard/paper"> to <container id="pslt" class="plain_box" appearance="boxes/subsection/standard">

The second option would change the bergkamp player stats to use the same paper files as the other panels and if you ever want to change the transparency of the panels you would only need to edit the opacity of one file.

But as wannachupbrew said, you have made changes to the skin and since I don't know what all you have been changing, I cannot really help any further either. Hopefully that helps though.

The stats panel has different border sizes, which is why it has it's own files. You will need to copy the "paper" and "paper@2x" files from 'Scorpio/graphics/boxes/bordered/standard/' into 'Scorpio/graphics/boxes/custom/plain/standard/' and open the 'paper.xml' file and change '<record id="image_borders" left="10" right="10" top="5" bottom="1"/>' to '<record id="image_borders" left="8" right="8" top="0" bottom="0"/>'. Or just put the files back that were originally in the skin.

Rename 'Scorpio.xml' to 'skin_config.xml' and add this line to that file: <string id="skin_name" value="Scorpio" />

Can that line be added anywhere in the file?
