Skin Dark (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 - Dark - 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.

Hi troy: thanks. I will take a look on it (I don't know when yet because for that I have to start a new game)

Hi MarcoVanb: I really don't understand your question. Could you explain a little bit more? And tell me what is that panel please (I can't see the whole panel since you only put part of it; thus I don't know exactly what is that panel).

.... And the third issue that i have is related to the 125% zoom that I have to use due to my high resolution monitor and some box backgrounds don't fit the boxes. It works fine at 100% zoom, but that's not an option for me....

Edit: Okay I figured out the box backgrounds. I just had to change the values for slicing.


Could someone tell me what xml to change and what figures to change things to (If Jubez is reading ) ? I also prefer the 125% zoom as I find the text too small otherwise
Thanks for any help

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 Troy: Finally I found the problem with the grey flags. In the next release it will be fixed. In meantime, if you want you can delete the following folder: graphics/buttons/subtle (delete the folder subtle).

Hi
In fact, in order to change the colour of background attributes you have to edit the code (changing the values of colours) in the settings. After the changes you have to exit the game and reload it.

Could you please make it clear? edit the code in the xml file or at the preference in game then exit - reload?
If edit the xml file so which file I should do?

Hi: I already explained how to do it lots of times in this thread. However, here is again the explanation:
1. Go to settings.xml and open it
2. Search for:

<colour name="unknown attribute background" red="227" green="178" blue="110"/>
<colour name="low attribute background" red="246" green="42" blue="42"/>
<colour name="normal attribute background" red="255" green="156" blue="0"/>
<colour name="good attribute background" red="15" green="158" blue="15" />
<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="20" green="247" blue="28" />

3. Change the values of red, green and blue
4. save the changes
5 . Reload the game

cheers

Tks Flut, I suggest you can state these at the #1 so newbie could easily find it. However I've done this with fm2017flutskindark setting file, at phase:
<!-- background attribute box colours Flut 17 v1 -->
I changed colour for excellent, normal, good ect..., save file, quite game, reload game, reload skin but nothing happen?
Besides that, could you please tell me how to change the colour for inj status because atm it is at pink half red colour, which is quite similar to on international duty.

Hi
Regarding the background boxes, the procedure I told you is the correct for change it. Thus I don't know what is the problem. Sorry. Try to keep only this skin in the skins folder, exit the game and reload it again (you can also try to clean the cache).
Regarding the "injury status", please put a screenshot in order I can see what are you talking about.
