Very nice graphic! I love it!
But could you update the Spurs club adboards? It seems to be very old.

The defaults used in game have now moved and are located here...
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads\default
You have to change those default boards now.....oh and one more thing ...they are not png files anymore they now have to be dds files
I changed mine so I do know this works.

You're the man!! Thank you for your help. I did all, and I have the ads. Thank you mate ^^

Anyone know if the pack has been updated with the images in dds files and not png. I've just downloaded and they appear in png.
If not any ideas how you convert them - looked at Photoshop and there isn't a file name of this type to save to

I have this one from nvidia...

Any ideas on how this could get modded?

True.. This is what Miles had to say: "they are not .gifs, no. They are animated hoardings using the same file format as is used for real life LED hoardings."

I have already converted the full pack with a different DDS convertor - but they still don;t appear to work.
Can you confirm
1. Is the directory for the pack still 'C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2016\graphics\pictures\ads' or do they all go in the directory mentioned in an earlier post 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads\default'
2. Does the full pack need converting or is it just the default file in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads\default' directory - Do you replace this file with the defalt file downloaded with the pack with the others remaining as png files
I'm guessing the convertor program I used did not do it correctly as you mention its DDS M8 above - Im not sure what this means but the convertor program I used only mentioned DDS files. I also put them in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads\' directory and they didn't work. Ive tried moving them to to the 'C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2016\graphics\pictures\ads' and again they did not work at all
Any help would be appreciated as Ive used the pack before on different versions of the game and it looks really good
UPDATE:
Ive re-installed FM and as you say the existing files are all DSS in the 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads\.
I have overwitten all of these files with my DSS files that I converted from the downloaded pack as the existing file structure also showed other countries adboards.
.I also put one of the the xml file for ads and no ads into the ads folder in the above directory and the pack still didn't work.
After the reinstallation of the game I looked at the existing file strcuture in the above directory I have noticed that it does not contain an xml file at all in it.
So where do you put the xml file for it to work - I believe this is more the issue of why they wont work rather than the files not converting properly especially as the existing files under details are DSS image files which match the same description as the files I converted from the different program
If there is no xml file in the game anymore how do you do ads and no ads in it - the only files that seemed to appear where the default ones and none of the others
To avoid confusion and to make sure it isn't the DSS files that haven't converted correctly could you explain step by step in laymans terms what I need to do and give filepaths of where each file should go as I cannot understand how others have managed to get both club ads and no club ads packs working now the game is using dss files, I have swapped the locations of different files around for 3-4 hours and still have no joy - the only ads that seem to show are the default ones even when I take out the ads folder completely from the
t 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2016\data\sigfx\graphics\pictures\ads directory which I would have thought would make the boards blank!!

With regards to my above post just wondered if there was anybody who could help me get the adpacks to work on FM2016 or if I could be informed if they no longer work

Haven't tried using DDS files, and so can't tell you what you need to do.
DazS8 seems to have got it working so he may be able to help...

Thanks anyway - I appear to have got the ads working now I was putting the xml file in the wrong place I had the adboard and non adoards folders in ads and the xml file in the graphics pictures ads folder.
One question to make sure it is up and running correctly as I have not much time to test it. What ad boards should be shown when playing a champions league game if you have club ads running - currently there is a sign which states champions league - I thought this would only appear if you had no ads xml file running.

Now Ive had a bit of time to look at Ive worked it out and managed to get both club ads and no ads using the png files. I also have the dds files as well if they were needed.
I basically put both xml files in the my docs/sportsinteractive/footballmangager2016/ads file with the xml file I wanted to use in the graphics/pictures/ads pack.
The reason champs leagues ads came up when running club ads was that the club I manage does not have any club ads files for it so the other files showed up. When I experimented using Aresnal I realised I would have to change these from club ads to no club ads to get these files
Thanks for your work - this is a great ad on

That's when I click the button to download from this site (on the right-hand side) anyway. When I go to the website in the other link it won't actually let me click anything, so no idea if both links are the same file or different ones...

Hmmm. I have NO problem with any of the graphics for FM. Didnt make any changes either.
