FM 2016 FLUT dark skin v2.3

Dark skin for FM 2016 regular career mode and widescreens (1920x1080).

I'm pleased to present you the version 2.3 of FLUT Skin Dark for FM16 .

Compatible with DF11, Scope and Cutout Faces.
Compatible with Backgrounds (however, some of them will not be shown, instead, the citypics will be displayed).



Released: 04 September, 2016

Thanks to all FM fans and especially to all of the fantastic FM skinners who made it possible to produce the FLUTSkin as it is today since FM 2013.

Resolution requirements
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 full screen mode. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).



The changes (some of them are just minor changes) in this version are in the following panels:

Stadium Overview Panel
Game Processing
Calendar Popup Panel
Club General Panel
Nation General Panel
Team Report Panel
Manager Home Panel



IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. In this pack I included a TUTORIAL PDF with instructions regarding the structure of your Graphics folder in order to view the citypics, the kits and the competition logos in player details and in title bar.

2. I also included a folder with the files you need to use in order to remove the attributes background boxes (you just have to place the files of that folder in the panels folder of the skin and overwrite the originals)

3. You can download the FOOTBALL MANAGER BACKGROUNDS SUPERPACK or the citypics MEGAPACK 4.0 HERE or HERE to further enhance the skin.


How to add Flut Skin in FM16

Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2016flutskindark" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2016\skins
Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.

Start FM16 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
You should see FM 2016 Flut Skin - v. 2.3 Dark Version as option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
Hit the Confirm button.

Please note this skin is provided as is. It has nothing to do with Sports Interactive or SEGA and won't be supported by them.

Hi. If you follow the procedures explained in the post the skin will be shown in the preferences. However, don't forget that this skin is for career mode.

Hi vonreichsm: thanks. But we were almost out of the Euro....And in spite of the fact that it was a good game (with lots of emotions) Portugal is not playing good enough......yet :-)
Here is the fix for your problem.
Put it in the panels folder of the skin.

cheers

Hi vonreichsm:
For the second question:
1. in order to increase the box on the right you have to edit the inbox content with player overview panel (in the news_item_panels)
Search for

<container>
<layout class="fit_children_attachment" alignment="vertical" offset="0"/>
<layout class="arrange_horizontal_attachment" layout="-1, 615" offset="0" gap="1"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0" layout_children="true"/>

and increase the value 615

2. for the values of the attributes: go to player attributtes panel overview inbox (in the panels folder), search for

<record index="1" id="val " sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="centre, can_scale" colour="white" size="12" font="fonts/ProximaNova-Bold1" style="bold" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper"/>
</record>

and change the value size="12"

For the first question, you can use THIS
Put it in the news_item_panels folder

cheers

A couple of queries;

1. Can I delete the signature under the player photo altogether? I just want the cut out image.

2. To get the kit on the player info page, do I need to copy my kit files into logos? (I have read the pdf but still a bit confused) Surely I dont have to rewrite the config myself?

Thanks

I really like both (dark and normal) Flut skins, but why is it that I can't change the colour of the player profile stats in the colour editor?? Or that it shows up that it's changed on the editor page, but when I reload the skins, the colours have NOT changed on the player page....eg, they are still in Green and Pink in the Dark Version of Flut?? this is very frustrating, and its like there is a glitch in that part of Skin. I've tried to re-download it again, but I still have the same problem. Could you tell me what the problem may be for Both skins?

Do you mean the attribute boxes? The in-game settings become redundant when boxes are used.Of course usually purely numbers are used.

You'll need to go straight to the settings.xml and try searching (ctrl+F) for something like attribute background/box or another derivative. If that is not present or does not work I have seen these changing with 'attribute colour' instead with some skins.

Amend the numberic colour-replacements to whatever you prefer (google 'rgb colour values' if you are unfamiliar with colour coding)

Hi

1. In order to delete the "signature" name you have to go to the custom folder (inside the panels folder) and, in all of the xml except picture selector panel, you have to delete the code similar to the following:

<!-- person name -->
<widget class="person_button" dslk="true" font="fonts/signature" alignment="bottom,can_scale" size="17" colour="secondary">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="4" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="centre" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="objt" />

</record>
</widget>

In each one of those xml you also have to delete the code similar to this one:
<widget class="picture" file="boxes/flut/paper11" image_alignment="bottom" >
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="4"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
<!-- colorir fundo da cor da equipa -->
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="tbcl" />
<integer id="set_property" value="colr" />
</record>

</widget>


2. To get the kit on the player info page, do I need to copy my kit files into logos? (I have read the pdf but still a bit confused) Surely I dont have to rewrite the config myself?
Yes you have to do exactly I explain in pdf. You have to copy your kits folder and change the config in order to seems like the following (this is an example for the Anderlecht kit). Note that you just have to change in each line the words “team” by “club”, “kits” by “logo” and “home” by “background/left” (if you use, for instance, notepad++ its quite easy with some patience)

A line of the original config
<record from="anderlecht_1" to="graphics/pictures/team/256/kits/home"/>

A line for the new config
<record from="anderlecht_1" to="graphics/pictures/club/256/logo/background/left"/>

After the changes you should put the new folder in the logos folder of the game.

Hi scouse100: first of all, thanks D_LO.
In fact, if you want to change the colour of attributes boxes you have to go to the settings.xml and find the following code:

<colour name="unknown attribute background" red="210" green="210" blue="210"/>
<colour name="low attribute background" red="241" green="159" blue="193"/>

<!--<colour name="normal attribute background" red="248" green="207" blue="0"/>-->
<colour name="normal attribute background" red="128" green="188" blue="244"/>
<!--<colour name="good attribute background" red="83" green="184" blue="66" />-->
<colour name="good attribute background" red="15" green="158" blue="15" />
<!--<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="62" green="211" blue="62" />-->
<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="28" green="207" blue="28" />


Change the values of red, green and blue according the colour you want (you can use photoshop in order to know the values of the colour you want) in the lines where there isn’t the symbol <!— (because this lines are not active), and save the xml (I highlighted in blue the lines you should change)
After the changes, exit the game and reload it. Done!!

Hi

The flags displayed in the player profile and also in the nation panels (country locator) are part of the skin and they are in the pack (skin/graphics/pictures/flags/big). Other flags or nation logos are not included in the skin.

Hi Flut. Thanks for telling me how to change the colours of the players stats using the settings file. But the problem I have now is that when I've clicked into the settings file, when I've scrolled to the part of the file and the numbers that I need to alter, I can only highlight the numbers but not input new ones. It's like the lines are blocking me from changing them. They can be highlighted, but you can't do anything to change them eg....I can't delete the numbers that are already there!. So it's great that I know where to go to change the numbers, but still so frustrating that I still can't change them. Could you please explain why I can't change them? Thanks

Hi Flut. Simply an awesome skin. I got a question for you:

I have tried to change the colors of the players attributes but without any luck.


<colour name="low attribute" red="255" green="255" blue="255" alpha="255"/>
<colour name="normal attribute" red="250" green="250" blue="250" alpha="200"/>
<colour name="good attribute" red="255" green="255" blue="0" alpha="255"/>
<colour name="excellent attribute" red="255" green="112" blue="0" alpha="255"/>

This is the colors i would like to see when i go to a players profile. What do i do wrong?
