I downloaded the pack but it didn't have any install instructions.

How do you install it?

I've made a change that should hopefully fix the forbidden error 🙂 Please report if you encounter it again.

Right, can anyone help me?

I have downloaded the full 31gig backgrounds and put in the correct folder. But it won't work in the game, same for 3d kits.

Player cut outs and logos are working????

I am guessing it's something simple, but can anyone help me?

I have got the 3d kits working so I just need backgrounds sorting now. I have put the backgrounds in 'backgrounds' folder and a 'pictures' folder and still not working in FM21 beta. Here is the screenshot:

Just unpack the hole thing in to the graphics folder no need to put it in a sub folder. When you have done that send us a screenshot of your graphics folder and inside the sortitoutsi background folder.

Perhaps you didn't get the full download? If you got the full file the size is 35,9 gb

Always remember to download with chrome so you can resume interrupted download.

Hi!

First things first, I'm running FM21 on a Macbook Pro.

I've downloaded the full backgrounds pack, and placed the 'sortitoutsi backgrounds megapack' into the graphics folder, underneath kits/faces/logos etc.

What do I need to do next to make them work within the game? I've added badges and kits and they're working absolutely fine.

In the games preferences I've got this setup:

Use caching to decrease page loading times - UNTICKED
Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences - TICKED
Show screen IDs in Title bar to assist skinning - I've tried both Ticked and Unticked with no success.

Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

I was able to download the full pack file with Chrome. It stopped several times but with the Resume option I was able to complete the download. Right now I'm unzipping and will try to load it.

I've downloaded the full background megapack but I can't get it to work. I've got everything else logo, kits and facepacks and they're all working fine.

I got the attached below doc showing it's in the right folder.

Do I need to start a new game for them to appear?
