FM 2015 FLUT skin DARK VERSION v.2.7 [Released 25.07.2015]

Skin for FM 2015 (1920x1080).

I'm pleased to present you the version 2.7 of FM FLUTSkin for FM 15.

A special thanks to all of FM fans and FM skinners that made possible to make the FLUTSkin since FM 2013.

This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 Full Window. So, some panels don’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).

In this version I included a version for DF11 player pics style

This skin includes lots of small changes and a NEW PLAYER OVERVIEW PANEL



IMPORTANT NOTES:

In this pack I included a TUTORIAL with the instructions for structure your Graphics folder of the game in order to view the citypics, the country locator, the kits and the competition logos in player details and in titlebar

I also included a folder named “Flags” with the country locators

You can download the citypics MEGAPACK 2.0 HERE and/or lots of country packs HERE

Installation Instructions

Step 1
Download the skin and extract the files (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).
Step 2
Move the folders “fm2015flutskindark" and “fm2015flutskindark_df11" 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.
Step 3
Start the game and go to Preferences screen and Interface tab.
You should see "FM 2015 FLUT skin – Dark Version 2.6” and "FM 2015 FLUT skin – Dark Version DF11 2.6” as options in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
Choose the skin.
Hit the Confirm button.

1920x1080 yes and no zoom.


Hi

Thanks. The problems concerning the subsection_boxes you report are weird. Try to keep only the skin in the skins folder, clean the cache and reload the skin.

In order to adjust the flag on the right of the picture, go to "player personal details panel1" and search for

<!--national flag-->
<widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="pnat" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="top, left">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="645"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="15" />

change (in the last line) alignment="vertical", for alignment="all" and after that increase the value 15.

In order to adjust the competition logo (on the left) and the badge of the shirt you have to strictly follow the Important Notes I did in the post of the skin.

Hi flut, thanks for your support.
I already tried to delete the other skins in the skins folder.

I tried to edit the file, like you said, but nothing..

I tested your xml and it works okay in my game. Are you sure you sent me the panel you changed?
Concerning the text, the boxes (subsection_boxes) are not working. So you have the text without the black transparency boxes behind. That's why I think there are a conflict with the skin and other skins or even other older version of the skin (and that's why I suggested to keep only the skin in the folder and clean the cache)

flut, help me.
apparently I have a bug..

every time I start the game, Football Manager creates into the folder "skins" this file:

Football Manager 2015 Alternatve_B8D38160-4066-4A2F-9040-21965995C4C9.fmf

I tried to delete, but FM creates again the file.

Hi

Is not a bug. It is the alternative skin from Sports Interactive. Once you have associated it from steam workshop that fmf file always are in the skins folder (and when you delete it, it returns again). No problem. Leave it there.

Ok.. sorry. I'm stupid. It's a workshop file. Everything is okay.

The file xml is correct, but I don't see any difference in the game

Yes. You don't see it because you have to change the value 15 of the inset. If you increase a little those number (try 20 or 25) you will see that the flag will be decrease.

2. How can i lighten the match statistics box..?

Really appreciate it if you could help or guide me.

I'm rather noob at computer programming.

Looking forward to your help. Thanks in advance.

Hi
Concerning the first screenshot, I really don't know what happens. However, sometimes (i don't know if it was the case), when we play a match with the "table" view and after that we play a match that not implies a league table (as, for instance, a cup) the panel corresponding to the league table doesn't work. It is a bug I don't know why happens (but really I don't know if there is your case);
The second question: when you said "lighten" you mean "transparent"?

Hi Flut,

Thanks for your prompt reply. Happy to hear from you.

As for the first question, please take a look at the screenshot below (i took it from another person's skin):

http://i1373.photobucket.com/albums/ag396/abbaskutty/WestBromvTottenham_OverviewOverview-2_zps194c12d2.png

The yellow box that i'm pointing at. Is it possible to have it on your skin..?

As for the second question, indeed, i want to increase the transparency of the match statictics box. Can it be done because i've seen it on other's skin..?

Thanks, Flut. I hope you don't mind helping me.

Hi

Here is a series of files.
Put the files that are inside of "panels", in the panels folder of the skin.
Put the graphics in the following path: graphics/boxes/custom/match/widgets/standard

Now, all of you want are there. ;-)

Hi Flut,

Both are working great at the moment.

I love the one on the formation. To me, it's better than the sample i've shown you. It has the name of players, their position and role on it. Yummy...

Thanks a zillion, mate.

Hi nunokopio

thanks for your words ;-)
As vonreichsm said, there is, in fact, a version for smaller resolutions. However it isn't this version (is the version 1.4) and, of course with the changes in order to work properly (some boxes aren't there).

WOWOWOWWEWA

awesome work mate by far myfavourite.......... but say u know those animations can u animate the player profile picture so it slideshows different snaps of the same player. I mind in 06 i had multiple pics for players then it stopped maybe sosmething to work on i dont think ur far off it. and is there an opacity thing i can use somewhere that ive missed im sure there was a panel added to other skins added a button for opacity and diff default background. Also itd be nicer with bigger buttons and if it looked meatier and bolder so much space. Also why default kits in player profile panel any way of getting the home kits there

and i dont know if this makes sense or u can do anything with but see

http://www.fmscout.com/a-country-locator-and-fm-flags.html By necjeff any chance u can add a panel somewhere to show these images about the countries location and not clash with club overview screen i hope u understand what im sayin as both panels assigned to flags can the panel in club overview screen where it shows the flag be assigned to say national logos or specifically to proper flag which im assigning to backgound right anyways.

Hi

Thanks ;-)
Concerning your questions and suggestions:
1. I also thought to use different pics of players in the animation, however I think is not possible currently;
2. In fact there is a button in other skins in order to choose the opacity and different backgrounds. Maybe I'll try it in other version of the skin....
3. concerning the buttons...sorry but I didn't understand.
4. The kits in player profile have be that one because in spite of my (lots) of experiences the panel didn't accept the 2d kits. So I had to use the default kits and I did a small trick in order to include the club badges
5. finally, following your suggestion I tried to include the graphics by necjeff. Because the specificities of the skin, when I put it they work and look fine in nation overview but not in club overview. So I manage it in order to work fine in the skin. I had to change the map graphics and now I think is okay (I just did yet for European countries). Here is two screenshots. What do you thin about it?

Hi flut,

I have remove attribute background from both player and no player profile. But I also want to remove it from human profile. I tried deleting human profile.xml and it works but I want the layout from yours instead. So are there any lines of code in it i can just removed just for deleting attribute background only?

From your screenshot in first post, how do I have the statistic details in player profile. There's no option from the drop-down.

Another issue is after patch 15.3.0, the text for both reserve and youth is missing. It happens with other skins too. Do you have any solution for this? If not it doesn't matter, since is just cosmetic.

Hi jonnyboy

In order to delete the backgroun boxes go to human profile.xml (in the panels folder) and search for the code:

<record indx="1" alignment="centre" font="fonts/capitals_bold" colour="white" size="9" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper" >
<boolean id="use_attribute_colour_as_bg" value="true" />
<flags id="attribute_value_colour" value="white" />


change by

<record indx="1" alignment="left,centre_y" auto_size="vertical" spec="text" colour="selection" />


note that there are two codes to change in the xml.

Concerning stats player.....why don't appear that table (it is in the central box, as you saw it in my screenshot)? in what resolution you play?
The missing text...you're right but I really don't know how to solve that bug.

Hi flut

I'm playing on 1920x1080 window mode, I tried full screen with same result. From my screenshot, there is no statistic option from the dropdown.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/yz2QDVyW6vGpw5EqFbvmOg6dhoCMnY49nCqtAEJX.png

edit: I realize the issue was because I download one of your upload for attribute background removal in an earlier post. That maybe from an older version thus no statistic added yet in the dropdown. Would you be able to upload one for this version instead for player and staff? Much appreciated!
