FM 2020 FLUT skin dark - Version 2.2

Skin for FM 2020 regular career mode and widescreen (1920x1080).

This is the FLUT Skin ("dark" version) for FM20. As usual, the Flut skin is completely full of changes when you compare with the default skin.

For many years I keep trying to edit a skin who can help FM Fans to better enjoy our game.
With the direct or indirect help of many FM players and FM skinners (thank you all) I created many stuff (such as the citypics, the rotating images of stadiums in club overview panel or the back and front kits displayed in player overview panel, just to mention some of the ones I consider most relevant).

Therefore, now, in FLUT Skin you can find the instant result option, the background/opacity selector, compatibility of player picture (in player overview panel) with DF11 and Scope facepacks styles, the animated intro match, front and back kits displaying in player overview panel, compatibilty with citypics and much…much more!!!

And now you can personalize FlutSkin more than ever!!
I included 14 alt folders in this pack. You just need to read the read me file in order to know how you can use them:
1. Alt. for sidebar - alt FM20 FlutSkin sidebar matching club colour (works only with the no hidden sidebar)
This folder is for those who want to use a coloured sidebar according each club colour.
2. Seven alts. for club overview panel - club overview alt1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
Seven different layout for the club overview panel
3. Alt. for player overview panel layout - player overview alt - flutskin 18
Files for return to the player overview layout I used in FlusSkin 1.8
4. Alt for attributes panel - alt for player overview without background boxes as default and for player profile and player popup without background boxes
Contain files for those who prefer playing with player attributes panel without background boxes
5. Alt for player overview panel without CA and PA values
6. Skin without background pictures
An alt client object browser.xml file for those who prefer playing the game with a solid background instead of pictures backgrounds (stadiums, cities, players, etc)
7. Alts for No Hidden Sidebar (the default sidebar) - for light and dark skin
8. Alt for playing with the tactics panel as in the 2.1 version (only displaying the back kit)


The Skin pack also includes:
1. “Round country flags”, “round continents logos” and default logos specially made in metallic style by @Qvordrup from sourtitoutsi. Those graphics will be displayed in the title bar.
2. Background maps for confederations, also made by @Qvordrup . Thank you @Qvordrup by your great work and for your collaboration!!!

You can download the 2D packs prepared for Flutskin (titlebar and player overview panel) here in sourtitoutsi. HERE
However, if you prefer edit your own kits, I also included in the pack a .pdf file explaining how you can edit the kits for Flutskin.

The logos in country locators are now updated by @Qvordrup according the last version of metallic logos.

You also can download the stadiums megapack and the citypics released by @DazS8 (thank you, my friend) HERE and HERE

And @geordie1981 has made a pack for inside "small" stadiums HERE

As always FlutSkin is completely free[/b] to download and I hope you enjoy it. However, if you want, you can reward my work donating whatever amount you wish. Any small amount is really appreciated.

You can do so by clicking the button down below:



Main changes in 2.2 version
- Tactics overview panel (front kits included; position colours changed)
- Instant result in match included
- Text font
- Hidden sidebar
- New alts.
- Tweaks here and there

Once again I would like to thank you to all FM Fans who support my work and also to all skin makers. A special thank you to PATRES10 from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin).

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

How to add Flut Skin in FM20
Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2020flutskin_dark" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\skins


  • Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
  • Start FM20 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
  • You should see FM 2020 Flut Skin dark - Version 2.2 as an 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.

    VP.: thanks !!
    gaztag: after unpack the .rar you should open the skin folder and look inside of it. If there is another folder with the skin, you should put that folder in the skins folder of the game.
    R. Charlston: you should download the citypics.

    I think this posting holds a solution, Skin makers just need to edit it into their FM 2020 skin:

    It works, you have to put the "City Pics" folder in "graphics/pictures/backgrounds".

    Hear hear!

    I do have one problem with the dark Flut skin (version 1.4), though. I've tried to edit a gradiant layer with moderate opacity for the player history screens, because many of them end up unreadable with the background pictures showing with 100% opacity.

    For some reason I cannot make any change to it even when I edit the line <container class="titled_box" id="phit" appearance="boxes/subsection/standard/paper">
    of the file \skins\fm2020flutskin_dark\panels\player\player history stats.xml.

    Hi Dominic Oliver: thank you for your kind and enthusiastic words. I really appreciated it.
    Regarding donations.....is another story....if I let you know how many people make a donation (last years and this year) you would surely laugh!! But, is okay... although I preferred to have donations (sure) I edit the skin as a hobby. Thus, no big problem with that.

    Hi Tommy Hughes: you are absolutely right. That panel is the "great mistery" for me. Is one of the few panels I couldn't find the xml responsible. I tried a lot to change it (or to find other xml) but...unsuccessfully. Thus, if you find what is the xml responsible for that "Career Stats" panel, please let me know. I also took a look on the other skins and to the best of my knowledge no one changed that panel....

    Having city pics as the background for player caeer stats means its impossible to actually make them out if the city pic is light. Before I could just switch to another background but now this has been removed, career stats are useless

    Joyboy: in fact, sometimes, some panels slow down a little bit. I don't know what is the files that causes that problemm sometimees, sorry.

    Hi paradosso. you can do it in inbox content with training focus panel.xml

    Hi sniperfox: As I already said, that panel was (until now) a completely mystery, since I couldn’t find the xml responsible for it. However, finally I found the solution. Thus, in the next version that panel will be fixed. Additionaly, the next version will have the background selector back

    For that you have multiple options in the drop down arrow. You only have to choose the one you prefer.

    Sadly this just didnt work for me.

    I downloaded the .rar file and moved the folder into the skins. It didn't appear in my preferences menu which straight away told me it somehow didnt spot it?

    Winzip files seem to work fine but not .rar ones oddly?

    Oh well back to the very good YACS skin.

    After unpacked the folders you should look inside the flutskin folder and if there is other folder with the same name, is that one you should place in the skins folder of the game.
