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

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.

Hi. Thanks. This is weird. Try to clean the cache, exit the game, keep this skin version in the skins folder only and reload the game.

Please place a screenshot of that problem.

I must click on the tactic panel and then click continue. Very uncomfortable
flut
This is due your screen resolution. The match titlebar is cut. To the right of FM there is buttons you don't have. What is the screen resolution you use?
AndreaSSL1900
I have FM button, i cuted the picture but don't works anyway
About the resolution
gholliday87
flut
yes, you can use the space. But I'm curious, your monitor screen is 1920x1080? Because as you can see in the my screenhots of the skin, there are two missing buttons to the right (one of them is "continue" button). In your screenshot, the match titlebar go almost to the end of the screen, differently from what happens in my game.
AndreaSSL1900
Must i press the space bar everytime?
AndreaSSL1900
Yes. Are the default settings so i not change anything about the resolution
flut
When you want to go ahead of that panel, yes. The space bar works as the continue button.
AndreaSSL1900
Ok thanks

but I only seem to be getting the outside stadium views and where the inside view is I get the 'coming soon' placeholder. DOwnloaded a stadium megapack that you linked to in the OP

<<1. I believe is a result of the screen resolution. I remember it was happened a few years ago wth my game but I don't remember how I solved it. Try to go to graphics/backgrounds and increase the value of that background (default) for your resolution...
2. Go to team squad.xml and change
<widget class="tactic_player_list_table" id="pltb" database_table_type="1" customisation_context="play" mode="fill_rows, stripe_rows, printable, store_sort_state, drag_rows, drop_on_rows, show_bullets, select_rows, select_multiple, show_insert_column_popup,keyboard" column_mode="resize_columns, move_columns, custom_views" popup_menu_class="popup_button_table_header" row_height="25" navigation_container="true" default_focus="true">

Great thanks for the help of replacing the numbers in the line. I had to tweak it (35 in place of 28) and now it's nickel.
For the first one, I found out how to do it. It is necessary to change, with 3d paint for exemple , the resolution of the panels and make it correspond to the resolution used. But, i put back the "client object panel browser" finally. Thanks anyway.
have a nice week end

Hi maybe the mini stadiums are missing. Try to download a mini stadiums pack.
flut
gholliday87: you just have to click on the arrwows to extend or collapse the news.
Onyewu
Try clicking on your tactics....once your in that screen all the buttons will show (at least for me it does.....I can't explain why)
flut
I already changed some things and fixed some bugs (for example titlebar and the bug regarding the unreadable text in continue button in pre match/team talk panels when we use some team or play in some leagues - that's why I had to change titlebar; player pictures in tactics vew during the match..) but, for now, maybe not justify an update of the skin. Thus, when the skin have more changes I will update it
Cheers and thank you all.
flut
Hi Onyewu, as I believe you noticed, due the great idea of OPZ, whish I followed in FlutSkin, the problem regarding the colour of team names in scorebard was solved!!! Finally!!!

Thanks Flut for using your holidays to make the best skin better.
V5.0 is perfect
flut
Hi
I found the way to solve that problem regarding the kit names and numbers in the end of season. However for fix that, I have to change the original kit icon.xml and I don't know if changing it ill affect other panels that use that xml. In fact, that bug arises because I use the kits instead of the "rectangular kits" (the zoomed kits). Unfortunately I can't return to the "rectangles" because I will lose the kits used in player overview and other panels. Thus, I prefer not change it....in spite of that bug. Sorry.
flut
Thanks!!!!

First time installing any skin into the game so please be patient with me.
I’ve installed it all and the skin is working good within the game. Only thing that’s not right is on certain screens/display in missing buttons or everything just seems a little squashed up. My laptop res is 1366 x 768. Will this skin still be able to work correctly with that? Also I noticed the instruction at the top saying play in full windows and icons only. What does that mean? Again sorry if this is proper basic stuff
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
bartdude
It means only play the skin in "Full Screen" mode, not "Windowed" mode and select "Sidebar icons-only" in the FM preferences. Regardless the Flutskin is designed around 3840x2160 but will also display well in 1920x1080. At 1366x768 you will not be able to display panels corectly.
gholliday87
Hi @flut, that only works until I continue, then they all expand again. Just wondered if there was some code to alter.
