Extract the 7z file (you may need winrar or 7zip) into your skins folder (this should be Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2013/skins).

If you don't have a skins folder, just create it, and make sure the steklo_x3 and steklo_x3fmc folder inside the 7z file is placed directly inside the skins folder, and not a subfolder of it.

If you've got a previous version, go back to the default skin, then delete the old steklo_x3 folders before installing the new version

CUSTOM BACKGROUNDS

Go this post and download the mod.

Hi,

Please see the above picture.

I have a problem with the skin this year, unlike previous years, possibly due to a change of PCs. You can see the "Personal Details" box doesn't display all information, only national details are displayed, not contract info, value, height etc. as it should. Furthermore, the attributes box now has a slider on it so I can't see the bottom stat of each comment (technique etc.). I

This problem only occurs when the screen resolution is 1600 x 900. When 1368 x 768 the right info is displayed but the overall display is blurred and ugly, so not really an option to play in this resolution. Any idea a) what is causing the problem and b) how i can fix it?

Thanks

I know this has been mentioned before but is there a way to show background pictures?

At the moment there is only the ones that come with the skin that are displayed. I like to use the stadium pictures for match day screens and also custom backgrounds for the teams.

SI fixed this issue and it works on the default skin so I was wondering if there was a way to get this working in this skin


Read the first post.

Mr Dixon are you going to do an update for this skin or is this the final version.....We know you are busy with your new job and driving but if you could let us all know it would be appreciated.Thanks


The only thing I'm planning to do is fix a bug that was mentioned recently, other than that it's done.

I know, I've not looked at it yet. It'll be in a panel I've changed, so I've got an older version of it and the changes made by SI aren't in it.


Patch 13.2.3 and the button still doesn't respond.... :-)

I have downloaded the stadium mod attachment on page 32 and extracted this to the normal skins folder (Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2013\Skins). In preferences the skin appears there as Steklo X3 with Stadium pics but when I select this the skin reverts back to the default one and had all the text in white.

Am I doing this correctly or have I missed something?

i downloaded the stadium mod

i only have backgrounds for scottish teams & a background pack from fm12

i have checked the id's all match up correctly , now some of the backgrounds show up & some still have a background but it is the national stadium

this worked fully until i closed the game down earlier

does anyone have a fully working scottish background pack OR even just the xml file?

(first post so sorry if this is the wrong place for it)

After a couple of days faffing (after finally getting motivated to do FM stuff again) I think the only way to get background pics working remotely smoothly is without the background selector. Attached is an additional skin for both standard and FMC modes (you still need the big skins from the first post), just extract them into your skins folder as normal. I've included the first pic from the selector as the new 'default' pic, but you can change this to whatever you want, but the opacity selector is still there.

Sorry mate when you click onto that background mod. its just a lot of spam that comes up m8

I'm getting exactly the same thing. When I click the download link it displays a load of gobbledygook in the browser. There doesn't appear to be a way to download the file?

It might be your browser throwing a wobbly at 7z files.

You were right Tom. Firefox was "throwing a wobbly" but when I tried in Internet Explorer the problem was solved. Thanks for your help.

Excellent work. First time Ive tried it and I loved it!

Just a quick question. The drop down menus that exist seem to be transparent and they kind of get difficult to read with the text or names under them if you know what I mean. Any way to fix this?

Also when I reverted to the default skin, I noticed all the player attributes went white and impossible to read. Is this normal?

Inside steklo_x3\actions is a file called match actions.xml, delete it and reload the skin. I must have copied it across when I was making the skin and SI have changed the functionality since. I don't think I've changed it, so there's no need to keep it.

You need the base steklo_x3 skin. If you don't have that, the stadium mod version won't work.

As far as I know, yes.

To change the dropdowns means changing the images used to make them. The skin text issue is most likely because you're missing this file in your skins folder:

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/XznGaQxKAXEKDtSqVEpAjXN7s7FcB8RrHrXlDBZK.png

Just create a file called config.xml pop the following into it:

<record>
&lt;!-- resource manager options --&gt;
<boolean id="dont_scan" value="true"/>

&lt;!-- don't recurse the sub folders, as they are loaded separately in the settings manager --&gt;
<boolean id="dont_recurse" value="true"/>
</record>

Save, then reload the skin (if that doesn't work, try restarting FM)

Oh, just noticed this: I play with my laptop, so the resolution is low (1366x768). Maybe because of that, I can't see "Counter Attack" or "Offside Trap (or Play Offside, whatever that was, don't even remember anymore ) on Team Instructions screen (well, I see CA when I'm not in a game, but during the game it disappears). Any way to get those two options visible?

I think that's not a skin issue, depends on which one you use with your logo pack, flags or logos.

Is there a problem with the PPM training with this skin? I ask my coach to teach my player something and he doesnt respond back.

Also in the post-match analysis when it mentions the key players, the goals and assists of the two players are not clear. The assists are cut off partly.

Delete the logos from your graphics/pictures/logos- folder, and leave the flags there.

Is it normal? if not is there any quick fix?

I'm loving this skin. Just this minor annoyance keeping me from enjoying it fully.

Perhaps you should try to dwln this http://ge.tt/5Q8hCCT/v/0 , unpack and replace client object browser.xml in 'panels' folder in your skin folder.
