Skin White (Final Version) for FM 2017 regular career mode and widescreen (1920x1080).

Compatible with DF11 and Scope faces.

I would like to start by expressing my acknowledgment to all FMfans who keep me motivated to edit the FlutSkin with kind words of support and stimulus.
In spite of my great recognition to all FM Skinners and graphic/addons producers that make our FM experience much more exciting, I would like to express a special thank you to PATRES10, for the tailor-made default kits I included in the skin; to NECJEFF, for the original creation of country locator that I adapted in Flutskin; to JOVOVICH, for the wonderful match intro panels; to SIRWILL and PIKAWA, for the match scoreboards I included in the skin; and, “last but not the least”, to RUNE, who has always shared his ideas with me, was responsible for the most innovative idea to improve FM skins visual – the citypics – and who has been a “compagnon de route” since the beginning of this journey.
All of you are the main source of inspiration that has made possible to improve FlutSkin since the first time (in FM13) I decided to try to edit a skin.



About this update
This version does not include "structural" (or big) changes. It includes, however, several tweaks in different panels, namely in the following:
- News panel: pre-season report team preview, post match analysis, pre-match opponent analysis and team report panel tweaked
- Match preview, Match overview and Match pre-match panel: all the lineups in those panels were tweaked
- Match titlebar score: scoreboard was tweaked
- Flut match scoreboard (tweaked)
- Match introduction: League one, Serie A, K League, Bundesliga included (from Jovovich); Liga NOS included (non official intro, made based on EPL league)
- Board room ( “new” )
- Club overview panel: slightly larger club kits and Last XI tweaked.

I hope you enjoy this version!
See you in FM18!!!


Released: 27 August, 2017

Resolution requirements:

This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).

IMPORTANT NOTES:

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.

You can download the 2D kits for displayed in player overview panel and titlebar HERE or HERE

You also can download the citypics (and much more) in the Backgrounds Superpack made by DAZS8 (with some contribution from myself and other FM Fans), HERE

How to add Flut Skin in FM17

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

Place the "fm2017flutskin" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2017\skins
1. Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
2. Start FM17 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
3. You should see FM 2017 Flut Skin - Final Version as option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
4. 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.

Flut, preciso de sua ajuda mais uma vez, estou usando a skin assim como usei para o 2016, porém tem alguns problemas, eu estou jogando na resolução 1600x900 com o zoom em 85% , praticamente tudo esta perfeito so tem um detalhe que ocorre, veja abaixo na figura:

Lembro que voce me ajudou a solucionar isto no skin para FM 2016 espero que possa fazer novamente este ano, tanto para a versao clara quanto para a escura, desde já agradeço. Sem a sua Skin o FM é muito pobre.

Obrigado.


Hi mckagan: The problem is related to your screen resolution. Try the following:

Place THIS graphic in skin/graphics/boxes/subsection/standard and overwrite the original one.

I can't test it, however try an other strategy. Go to that folder I told you and open the paper.xml
By try and error method (and don't forget to reload the game after all of the change you made in the xml) changes the values of


<record id="image_slices" left="4" right="4" top="30" bottom="4"/>

I don't know. Start by increase a lot the value of top and look at the result.
Yes, I remember I solved your problem last year but I really don't remember now how I did it. Sorry.

I have searched the 2016 topic, and found this.

Hi

I'm sure now it will work. Put these folder (extracted, of course) in the following path:
skin/graphics/boxes/subsection (overwrite the other with the name standard)

Old solution

is there any modifications on these standart folder from last year version ?

Try THIS ONE
If it doesn't work, try to put that old folder in the place of the equivalent of the FM17 skin.

In fact the code is different for that panels and for lineups panel (for example). However, if i use the code similar to the lineups panel the buttons for changing the view (at the top left of the pitch) don't work...so, I can't help you.

Hello Flut, i just upgrade from version 2.4 to version 2.5 today, but like the other ones i got some issues still going on, I did what u said some time ago and already fixed many of them, but some mistakes i just cant fix, like the one on the pic. As you know im a big fan of the skin and i use 1600x900 resolution full screen with 85% zoon, i know its not the right one but this is the max of my notebook and since i love the skin i would like to have it running even if there is no solution for that.

Edit: Another error i have found has been posted by another user on the dark skin thread, its related to the nation flags not showing on the career start screen, like on the second picture.

try to delete some xml files in the fonts folder of the skin. You can start by the file text.xml and afterwords by team_titlebar (it is in the fonts folder of the skin). Each time you delete one of the files, reload the game and look at the changes. Sorry but I change lots of fonts files and I can't remember all of them.

Hi
The files you should change are the boxes/subsection/standard/paper100

Regarding the flags I didn't tried yet in order to look at the problem. Thus I can't help you yet.
cheers
