FM 2021 FLUT skin dark - Version 16.0

Dear all

This FLUTSKIN version 16 is the final version of FLUTSKIN for FM21!!

A great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still improving the skin and gave me new ideas!!!

A special thank you to all players who decided to distinguish my work with a donation!! Although just a small part of FM Players who use the skin made a donation (I edited the skin as a hobby and, as you know, completely free), I always feel honoured and happy when people recognize the work done and decide to contribute. So, I reinforce, I have to give a special thank you to that friends of FlutsKin!!!!!!

Also a recognized thank you to those one who help me answering the questions and requests and adapted the FlutSkin (namely and specially Rosek for the help to answering questions and the adapted version for 2560x1440, and Richbell, for the adapted version with hidden attributes!!!!! And, of course I don't forget the skinners community who also indirectly contributed to FlutSkin with their creativity.

Also a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin) anf to Michael Murray since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work!!

Now is time to stop editing the skin for this season. I wish to return for FM22. Lets wait and see since no one is able to predict the future.

MAIN CHANGES IN v16.0
- Following the great idea of majesticeternity, Tyburn and a31632 (from Sports Interactive community) I included in several xmls a code for personalize the background in specific panels, namely club overview, player overview, board room, human profile and team training. These codes are not “activated” by default but if you want to have a different (customized) background in each one of that panels you just have to activate the codes. In the read me file I explain how you can do it.
- Nation overall panel
- Nation overview panel
- Human profile panel
- Player profile stadium option in player overview panel
- News panel

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.

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. FC style kits HERE; SS Kits style 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.

If you prefer SS'kits you can download this and replace the kits folder located here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\skins\fm2021flutskin_dark\graphics\pictures\kits
HERE

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

You can also download the stadiums background 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

You can also download the sortitoutsi Backgrounds Megapack HERE

As always FlutSkin is completely free 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:


SOME ADITTIONAL NOTES:

PLEASE NOTE THAT MANY SCREENSHOTS ARE FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF THE SKIN

FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO MAKE THE GAME MORE DIFFICULT, YOU ALSO CAN DOWNLOAD AN ADAPTED VERSION OF THE SKIN (V. 15) WITH THE ATTRIBUTES VALUES HIDDEN. THIS ADAPTED VERSION WAS AN IDEA OF RICHBELL AND, ALTHOUGH WITH MY HELP, IT WAS RICHBELL WHO ALSO DID THE MAJORITY OF THE CHANGES. THANK YOU MY FRIEND!
Please note that for this version working well (with hidden attributes) you should remove the original version of the skin.


FOR THOSE WHO USE 2560x1440 RESOLUTION YOU ALSO CAN DOWNLOAD THE ADAPTED VERSION (v. 16.0) EDITED BY ROSEK

THE SKIN IS TOTALLY COMPATIBLE WITH 1920x1080 SCREEN RESOLUTION AND 4k (windows display settings 200%; game 100%).
YOU SHOULD USE IT IN FULL WINDOWS, ICONS ONLY


Important note regarding TV LOGOS:
Although the default tv logo is the one I use, of course you can easily change it; for that you just have to go to skin/graphics/icons/tv logos. In that folder there is a alt folder with many TV logos. You just have to replace the tv logo.png and the tv [email protected] for that one you want. Of course you should rename the new logos as tv logo and tv logo@2x. You also can use other logos made by you. The procedure to use them is exactly the same. However, I should remember that yo should use logos with the right height. For tv logo you should use 25px and for the @2x you should use 50px.


Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions.

How to add Flut Skin in FM21
Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2021flutskin_dark" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\skins

  • Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
  • Start FM21 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
  • You should see FM 2021 Flut Skin dark - Version 16.0 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.

    Why even consider anything but SS Kits, the alternatives don't come close for me and mess up compatibility.

    @flut how do i change to clock colour from grey to black i have tried changing to black but only the bottom half of the clock changes to black the top part is still grey
    <!--clock-->
    <container width="110" class="main_box_no_margin" appearance="boxes/custom/match/tv captions1/si tv/score/time/paper1" blue_replacement="black 600" red_replacement="black 600" id="clkc">

    many thanks


    You should put black in the two "replacements" because the graphic have grey 600 for red replacement. Or, if you prefer you can go to fm2021flutskin_dark\graphics\boxes\custom\match\tv captions1\si tv\score\time\paper1.xml and change red_replacement for black.

    hi

    go to player overview panel.xml and change the code

    <widget id="cKix" class="kit_icon" file="generic/kit icon14" scale_picture="true" kit_zoom_level="2" priority="1">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="1"/>

    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="80" />

    for (for example)

    <widget id="cKix" class="kit_icon" file="generic/kit icon14" scale_picture="true" kit_zoom_level="2" priority="1">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="1"/>

    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="90" />


    There are 3 pieces of code like that (each one for eac one of the drop down arrows options)

    Cheers and have a happy New Year!!

    Hi Flut,
    as I said earlier, your skin is so great. Thx a lot to you.
    I have one little question. In player overview is there a possibility to highlight the chosen player in the comparison panel?


    Hi

    Thanks. Yes is possible. I will include it in the next version of the skin.

    For remove the nation logo and the nation liitle flag remove the following piece of codes in player overview panel.xml

    <widget class="nation_button" id="natX" alignment="left" icon_alignment="right,top" dspf="4">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="55"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="7"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />

    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="Pnat" />
    <integer id="set_property" value="valu" />
    </record>
    </widget>

    and

    <widget class="object_portrait_picture" id="npiX" image_alignment="left" scale_picture="true" width="80" height="80" embed_in_frame="false">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="5"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="120" />
    <record id="object_property" dont_set_hint="false" get_property="PNat" set_property="objt" />
    </widget>

    The player picture works differently. When you have on a nation it appears the logo nation, in the club, the club logo and in player the player face. Is the game who did that. So, if you want, you can remove it from the player panels but it will not be displayed in the club (the club logo) and in nation (the nation logo).
    The code is in titlebar.xml and is the following:

    <container >
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="arrange_horizontal_attachment" layout="-1" gap="1" offset="0" />
    <widget class="picture" id="ppic" image_alignment="top, left" height="80" width="80" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" priority="1">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />
    <boolean id="scale_picture" value="true" />
    <boolean id="keep_aspect_ratio" value="true" />
    <flags id="image_alignment" value="centre"/>

    <attachment class="test_setting_attachment" get_setting="show_portraits" default_value="true" set_property="hidn">
    <list id="value">
    <boolean value="false" />
    </list>
    </attachment>

    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />

    <record id="object_property">
    <list id="get_properties">
    <record>
    <integer id="get_property" value="fcgn" />
    <!--Facegen data request-->
    </record>
    <record>
    <integer id="get_property" value="Pfke" />
    <!--Fake name request-->
    </record>
    <record>
    <integer id="get_property" value="prpc" />
    <integer id="set_property" value="valu" />
    </record>
    </list>

    Hi Bart

    I really understand what you say, however, since I use the FC12 style (which I prefer, comparing the SS, but of course is a question of personal taste) I adjust the skin for that style. Sorry ๐Ÿ˜ข

    And...have a great New Year and keep safe, my friend!

    Nothing personal Flut and I appreciate you using FC12 but I was referring to ingame on team screens, where I find FC12 to have a bleached out appearance, compared to SS kits. It's not remotely an issue for me because all the other elements of your skins, far and away make up for a tiny issue, concerning some. Likewise, have a good and safe New Year.

    I believe you can use "primary" instead of "white" and the colour will be the primary colour of each competition.

    Hi, a couple of help requests for the board!

    Screen 1 - How do I get it to show the full name?

    Screen 2 - I have got the saved continental logos, instead of the map type that's circled...Any idea how to change?

    Sorry if these have been answered previously. 13 pages of replies with a lot of code is tricky to search through!
