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.

    Hi..
    only a problem... but it happens also with "regular" skin
    Example: Pordenone this year is playing for Serie B at Dacia Arena... and not Bottecchia... (but in the skin it appears as Bottecchia)
    if you check the matches... it's Dacia

    That has absolutely nothing to do with the skin You can change that with the pregame editor if you want to

    Love the skin, guys - quick question; is there a way to get the City shown for the club to be their actual city, rather than where their stadium is? For example, Sliema Wanderers are obviously from Sliema but play at National Stadium in Attard, so the City panel defaults to Attard rather than Sliema. Any help would be appeciated! Thanks for all your great work.

    Sorry but there is no way to change it. The game controls the city of the club.

    Really love the skin. I was wondering how to remove the morale, versatility, etc... I did manage to remove the potential and current.

    Hi, is there a way to get post game milestones like in this picture?

    The milestones don't show up on the Flut skin.

    Hi there,

    Great skin, also played it in FM19.

    Can someone tell me if it's possible to have the sidebar/menu to stay "fixed" on the side so it's visible all the time? I'm not so good with computers so it would be a great help if someone can guide me step by step.

    Thank you

    is it possible to have in the FlutSkin20 the display of the scout screen as in the version of FlutSkin19? or alternatively, the ability to change the background colors of the values?

    Hi
    Thank you.
    Regarding your question, you just have to use the files inside the folder named "files for NO HIDDEN SIDEBAR_dark".

    You can change the background colours of the boxes in the settings.xml. But don't forget that the new colours will be displayed in all panels.

    Thank you,
    I changed the colors of the skin through the game preferences screen, but the changed colors are only valid for the player screen (table player - Miguel img.) but in the scout screen the colors remain the same (table scout - Miguel img.)
    I want to understand if I have the possibility to modify:
    A) get the display of the screen (table player - Miguel) in the scout screen (for any player) so as to have a background and only the colors of the values that change.
    B) If it is not possible, I want to understand how to modify in the config file. the colors in the scout screen, in the small box.

    Hi Flut, Thank you for your time! Sorry for my [Google-translate-English]
    I have another question. Is it possible to have a dafault (dark blue) background in the match report?.. without having to remove the background images of the stadiums?
    I would not want to delete the background images of the stadiums, but if this is not compatible with the skin I will make a reason
    Thank you

    Hi there,

    Big fan of the FLUT skins, but I've just upgraded to 2.2 dark and I've noticed a few issues about the place with the new text - see an example in the picture below. The text is black which in the dark version makes it unreadable, and I've noticed it in a few places (unfortunately I don't have a list). Will these be fixed in a future update, or is there an easy fix to do myself?

    EDIT: Resolved - a full skin reload without caching is needed, changing skin alone doesn't do the job.

    Hello Flut,

    I don't know if this is the right place to ask about this but I hope somebody can help me.

    So after I get bored with my old save, I start a new game, I chose the same manager profile, but my "avatar" doesn't show up in profile page, instead it shows my computer profile picture.

    https://imgur.com/a/3uWrJgR

    What should I do so the manager picture will be the 3D manager face? In my first game save I recall something like this happened but I forgot what I did to make it works but it worked well even when I change the appereance (glasses, hair, etc) the manager picture shows like how I change it. I already tick the option in preferences to use generated picture and reload the skin but nothing happened.

    Thank you

    Love this skin it’s simply the best but I’ve noticed a bug on the club screen, top left the stadium image starts with my stadium pic then it goes blue for a while before going back to the stadium.

    No idea why how do it stop it please
    My city pic is fine and my stadiums are in the right folder.

    Here’s a link to show what it looks like

    Hello there!
    Absolutely sterling work yet again on the best FM skin out there!
    I am particularly in love with the 'new' font, which if my tired old eyes don't deceive me is based on that ultimate classic CM 01/02!
    Brings back many, many happy and pleasant memories from nearly 20 years ago! Nearly 20 years ago - gosh!
    Cheers!


    Hey how do you get the old CM font to show in game?

    It is explained in Flut's skin zip file in Alts FlutSkin FM20_v22 folder in file named 2D kits adapted for Flutskin_readme.pdf
    However tutorial needed some changes because Notepad++ changed the naming of some tabs.
    So here is my edited version of Flut's tutorial.

    You will need program called Notepad ++ to edit stuff.
    Download it from here

    Step 1
    1. Copy your entire single folder with all SS kits and paste it in the logos folder of the game
    2. Download the Notepad++ (it's free)
    3. Open Notepad++
    4. Click on binoculars icon
    5. In the new opened window choose the tab Find in Files
    6. In Directory, browse to the new folder with SS kits you created (i.e. C:\Users\user\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\pictures\logos\your copied folder with SS kits
    7. In the field Find what type team
    8. In the field Replace with type club
    9. In the field Filters type *.xml
    10. Click on Replace in Files

    Step 2
    1. In the field Find what type kits/home
    2. In the field Replace with type logo/background/left
    3. Click on Replace in Files

    Step 3
    1. In the field Find what type kits/away
    2. The field Replace with must be empty
    3. Click on Replace in Files

    Step 4
    1. In the field Find what type kits/third
    2. The field Replace with must be empty
    3. Click on Replace in Files

    5. In the new opened window choose the tab “find/search in files”
    6. In the cell named “Folder”, browse to the new 2D kits you created
    7. In the cell “find/search what” type team
    8. In the cell “replace/change with” type club
    9. Click on “replace on files”

    You're welcome mate.
    I just realized the new Notepad++ has some changes in user interface (naming of some tabs is different),so I've edited my post to be accurate.
    Adding *.xml in Filters field makes the whole process significantly faster.
