Links to most of the files are corrupted. With FM 2020, I think they all need to be renewed.

The links are broken.

Another thing to retify is file: sortitoutsi_google_map_stadium_backgrounds_2019.00_changes.zip that only have 164Kb instead of 5,xx Gb.

It´s here that i report?


Thanks

@VP. does this work for FM20? never really got into it last year to warrant downloading it but if it still works for the new version i'll grab it!

Yes mate, it'll work on all versions.

Hi just loading these up with FM2020 and finding it quite unreadable with the new skins - playing as Mansfield Town for example the skin overlays a lot of green and yellow text onto the stadium and pitch.

Has anyone got any tips for using these stadium graphics in FM2020? Is there a way to reduce the background brightness?

Anybody who can answer the question above? I got the same issue using the original skin. The backgrounds are way too light. It is impossible to read the white texts :-)

Would there be any chance of adding the ground 'Ovrevi' for Swedish North club Tvakkers IF to the pack. Here is an image I manged to get off there facebook page - there may be others online

Hi I am currently running FM19 and have downloaded the sortitoutsi Google Maps Backgrounds Megapack but it does not load into the game. I have also done the Facepacks, the kitpacks and the metallic logos . They all work no problem at all.
I also never seem to be able to download and use the various tactics posted on here. These come in an FMF file which I am unable to use.

The tactics do not worry me as I can create them myself with a bit of work, but I would love to get the stadiums in the background if possible.
Also I gave noticed player profile pages with much bigger photos. Is this just using a different skin? Or is it a different face pack ?

Last question I promise ;-)
I am going to purchase FM2020 and can I just transfer my graphics folder to the new FM20 folder which I presume is created .........or is it as simple as just renaming my folder Football Manager and making sure my new FM20 save goes to there.
Any guidance appreciated

Player profile pictures with bigger photos will be visible when using a different skin.

If you are on a PC, you can easily transfer your FM19 graphics to the equivalent FM20 folder. If you're on a Mac, the process is slightly different.

The only difference between versions are kits, for obvious reasons. Though you may wish to use 18/19 kits in FM20, they won't really be the same as those in real life.

I'm trying to add in an additional stadium to a pack I currently have. I'm however struggling with the editing of the XML file and despite my best efforts, I'm not getting anywhere.

The club and stadium in question is Norwich United (ID 8325048) and Plantation Road (ID 8600638). The picture in question is saved under a 'teams' folder with the title of '8325048'. I've edited the XML file for it to appear as follows;
<record from="teams/8325048" to="graphics/pictures/club/8325048/background"/>
<record from="teams/8325048" to="graphics/pictures/team/8325048/background"/>
<record from="teams/8325048" to="graphics/pictures/club/8325048/logo/background/left"/>
<record from="teams/8325048" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/8600638/background"/>
<record from="teams/8325048" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/8600638/stadium"/>

I am however having no luck getting it to change within football manager, despite that code being the exact same to another team which the pack changes. I have unchecked caching and reloaded and changed the size of the photo in question to a size of other pictures within the file with still no luck. The picture in question is this;
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-S6TOqqPsIHw/U10qc6bGrEI/AAAAAAAAM6s/xyhcb7y-PwI/s1600/101_6872.JPG

I'm assuming it will be an easy fix as I am not experienced with this thing, but any help would be appreciated!

So I had this problem around 6 months ago and it was fixed as the picture was .JPEG rather than in lower case .jpeg or .png.
I'm basically having the same problem again however with a new picture.
The team in question being FC Vaduz (ID 572002) and stadium Rhein Park Stadion (ID 129503). I've added this picture (attached below) in and given it a file name of '1234567'. I've edited the XML to look like this and have also resized the picture to another size and tried both .png and .jpeg formats.

<record from="teams/1234567" to="graphics/pictures/club/5720002/background"/>
<record from="teams/1234567" to="graphics/pictures/team/5720002/background"/>
<record from="teams/1234567" to="graphics/pictures/club/5720002/logo/background/left"/>
<record from="teams/1234567" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/129503/background"/>
<record from="teams/1234567" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/129503/stadium"/>



If anyone can solve my stupidity again it would be appreciated.

Hi Everybody,

I have downloaded the Four parts of the Megapack on Mega. I have unzip the fourth archive. I put the 4 folders in the Sports Interactive/FM2020/Graphics.
But the backgrounds doesn't work.
Can you help me in this installation. I'm using Mac.
Thank's a lot !

From FM20 onwards, there's been a substantial change to how Mac FM documents are stored. Previously the files would automatically go in the Documents folder here:

Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Documents/Sports Interactive

Now the files will instead appear in the following location:

Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive

By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:

Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ -> ‘Football Manager 2020’
