Not yet, i have tried but at the moment the site doesn't recognise the ID numbers of countries so cannot make the config file. Hopefully @Rob will be updating this at some point.

Any idea why these don't show up in the default dark skin, is there an update due or is the issue with the actual skin?

You need to download the base skins here - https://sites.google.com/site/michaeltmurrayuk/Skins/fm18baseskins

And follow these instructions.

How To enable Background Changes

FM2018 again supports background changes directly this year, however if you are using the Dark Base skin there is a file you need to edit as it has a solid overlay over the background meaning that whilst the background is displaying you cannot see it.

Inside the Base skin that you have downloaded you need to browse to this location:

\graphics\boxes\custom\background\

And rename the '!paper' and '!paper@2x' png files to 'paper' and 'paper@2x' which will make them take on the same transparency as those used in the other Base Skins.

If you need further help on editing the transparency of the images then have a look at this guide - its for FM2015 but the editing of the graphics is the same.

hi

cant download the Update Pack - 2018.13

it popsup with this

We do not currently have any free mirrors for this file. There are two completely opposite reasons this happens:

Possibility 1) The file is very new, and a mirror is still being created, this hopefully shouldn't take more than 5 more minutes.

Possibility 2) The file is very old and you should seek out a newer version. Old files still exist on our servers so if you REALLY need to access it please get in contact with an administrator. Alternatively all archived files held on our server are available to premium members instantly.

Sorry. Now i understand anything. Until 2018.13 i used this file. There was one folder and there was a config with 4 instruction for the picture, e.g. stadium or background or team and so on. Now there are more folders with no config in it. The config is only in the first folder. Have i to delete my old folder, install the new whole file from today and than everything works? Please, explain.

No you should still be able to just add them to the one big folder if you want. The are only more folders now to help keep things separate but it doesn't matter if they're all in one folder as you only use the one config file.

I'm really sorry but i still don't understand what you mean, I don't see part 1 or part 2, just the large main file and all the change files for download?

This is what i see.
