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.

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.

    With 100% looks like this


    In your screen settings of your computer, did you set the display to the same value ?

    For example, I play in 2560 * 1440 and my game as well as my screen are both set with this resolution. Is it the same with you ?

    Hello, first question : what is your resolution ? I see, normaly you use not the version 2560*1440.
    On your first picture, the jerseys are in FC12 model and your outside is not. Try to put this if you want to keep the FC12 model:

    No need.
    Already try to set the zoom to 100%. And try what I gave you above with the 2d file.


    Sorry but I can't see anymore. The boss may need to look into your problem.

    But, If you want to switch to 2560 x 1440 mode here is the link:

    Same problem for me. depends on whether you play on a landline computer or laptop. I for example play on a laptop and laptops have the smallest screen so even if you play with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 you are forced to play with 50% zoom

    The first question, I didn’t understand well but I didn’t change anything regarding 3d match. Thus is not related to skin (I believe).
    The second question: what do you want precisely remove?

    Doddo04
    I believe I can do it. However I have to take a look on it because I had no time to work on the skin this week.

    Kovac
    first of all use icons only in the sidebar and also full window. Maybe that changes don’t solve totally your problem. I really don’t know how can you solve it since I don’t play in that resolution (I play and edit tghe skin exactly with the configurations I explain in the thread: my screen is 4k 3840x2160 and I use 100% Zoom in the game, with windows display settings 200%. The tests I did in a screen with 1920x1080, 100% Zoom, 100% Windows display settings, show me exactly the same as when I use my current configurations, i.e., the skin works properly in 1920x1080, 100% Zoom, 100% Windows display settings. Maybe you can try sme differet Windows display settings and zoom in the game untill find a good combination….However, Andrea gave some important informations based on his experience.

    chachatim
    As bartdude said, I and other FM players already answered your question a few times. Rosek also just finished to explain how you can solve that problem. When you change the values, you have to combine that changes using try and error method in order to adjust the size and the correct place of the kit number.

    Good morning. I'm sorry that the meaning of the question is not conveyed. The leftmost screen no longer disappears in the game expansion highlights. Looking for a way to turn it off.

    Now i'm playing with 85% zoom. As i told in the comment, i play on a laptop that although it is a very good gaming PC with the resolution 1920 x 1080, but still remaining a laptop has the smallest screen compared to a normal computer, so 100% zoom in in the case of the Flut Skin on a small screen creates the overlap of some panels based on my experience. So as happened in my case and to other people, i can't press the continue button after a speech in the locker room, the name of the coach in the top right overlaps with other writings, in the presentation of the formation of the opposing team the logos are cut in half and go to cover almost completely the shirts.
    The last two problems i still have even with the resolution at 85%.
    Anyway it's up to us to balance and be able to find the right zoom

    Thanks Andrea for your explanation. In fact I tested the skin in a screen 1920x1080 and not in a laptop.


    chachatim:

    1. For club overview panel:

    change the value of top in lines 53 and 68 of the person snapshot club overview16.xml

    2. Regarding the tactics squad panel go to team squad tactics panel.xml and increase the value of the row_height in the following code

    <widget class="tactic_player_list_table" column_spacing="0" id="pltb" customisation_context="play" database_table_type="1" view_setting_name="stored_tactics_view" mode="fill_rows, select_rows, select_multiple, printable, store_sort_state, drag_rows, drop_on_rows, show_insert_column_popup, stripe_rows" column_mode="resize_columns, move_columns, custom_views" row_spacing="0" popup_menu_class="popup_button_table_header" row_height="31">

    something like this? Or with a colour in the boxes (I used grey for on the pitch players and black for substitutes). I also increased a little bit the players boxes.
