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

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.

Keep up the great work with improving sections at a time
Rosek
Thank you for the encouragements.
I'm trying to do my best to help Flut with this, as well as help out with other players' issues.
This is the goal of what is called "FM community".
And if you have certain requests, do not hesitate.
Leeds1919
@Rosek , have you seen the TV logos for the match preview screen and top right of match, they are in the skinning hideout on SI site, would be amazing on Fluts excellent skin
Rosek
No, sorry.
Do you have a link so that we can know what it is ?
Leeds1919
https://community.sigames.com/forums/topic/547856-fm21-match-preview-lineups-panel/
not sure these can be added to Flut?
Rosek
Thank you.
I look at this
Leeds1919
Cheers, you are the man
Rosek
Is that okay?
Here is the link to download the files :
http://www.mediafire.com/file/f4nof3x2186y8ou/modifTVlogo.rar/file
Be careful, depending on your resolution with which you play, you may need to change the position value of the logo.
It changes in the file "match tittle bar" and modify the value in the following code :
<widget class="icon_button" id="inst" icon="icons/tv logos/tv logo" ="true" alignment="centre" icon_alignment="centre" height="40" appearance="">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="right" inset="-1200"/>
The more negative you have, the further to the right it goes.
To change the logo and put the one you want by adding only the number of this one at the end of :
<widget class="icon_button" id="inst" icon="icons/tv logos/tv logo"
This number should match the one you give here:
C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\skins\fm2021flutskin_dark\graphics\icons\tv logos
Good game.
Edit 01/03/21 06:00 : Some files were missing in the RAR folder. Updated.
Small example :

Hello everybody.
Thanks to @R Charlston for letting me know.
I didn't pay attention this morning when I sent you the file, but it contains errors.
Sorry but I worked on it all night to get this result :
I just updated it :

Recall :

The more negative you have, the further to the right it goes.

Good game.

Hello,
I've downloaded your files and pasted them on the skin folders as you can see in the screenshot. However when I start FM21 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab I cannot see FM 2021 Flut Skin dark - Version 8.0 as an option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
Do you have any idea why is that happening or if I need to do something more?
Well done for your hard work
Qvordrup
@flut could you please take a look at this and make a version that works with 1920x1080 👍
Joyboy
I seem to have a problem. When at half time team talk I don't seem to have a button to progress to the 2nd half, I can use the space bar to progress. But the real issue is that the game gets stuck after the game on the waiting for media reaction screen.
I changed the skin and it worked fine.
Leeds1919
@Rosek I’m struggling to get this to work
maybe it’s my resolution-I use 1980 x 1200
all the best
Rosek
Good evening.
2560*1440 is the resolution I am using.
Try to modify these values for the 1920*1080 resolution.
I tested on my screen with your resolution and here is what it gives :
Rosek
Good evening.
Sorry my screen does not have the resolution you are using.
Try to change the "inset" value to -750 first on the “match tittle bar” .
Normally you should have your logo displayed.
After that you may need to adjust the value.
Do 50 by 50 (-700 will go to the left or -800 will go to the right) to see what happens.
Then you can adjust the horizontal position of the logo by modifying the "height" value.
Do 10 by 10 ( 90 will go to the up or 110 will go to the down) .
I hope to have helped you as best as possible.
Good game

Hi all
Following the great work of Rosek I'm orking on the TV logos for the skin (for the resolutions I refer on the skin presentation).
I believe in a few minutes I can show how it is.
Evil-Muffin7
From the pack above the only change i required was the "match tittle bar" i just added the code for the logo on the original file that was in the pack for 1920 x 1080.
The code defaults to the Sky Sport logo called “tv logo” as seen in “graphics\icons\tv logos”
flut
Hi all
Here are some screenshots.
The first, second and third are regarding TV LOGOs (I also included it in the league table in match preview)
The fourth and fiveare concerning the team squad (I add the player/staff pictures in team squad, team squad tacticws and many other panels). Two versions in order t know your opiinion. What do you prefer (that one only with the pictures or the other with the pictures with background colour of the club)?
Rosek
Thank you for your first message. I just tried to do it according to my knowledge.
For your question about faces, personally I don't like with the "primary" wallpaper.
It feels "weird" since it's the only column with that.
Tommy Hughes
Yeah, I'm not really feeling the faces in the squad selection screen. Sorry. I feel they're great in tactics and other places, but just not in squad selection, where there's all that other info and, IMHO, no need for very small mugshots.
But I do feel the version with faces with transparent background are better than the team color ones.
EDIT 2021_03_15:
Now that I finally decided to replace my Flutskin 8.0 with the 9.0 version, it didn't take long to get used to the small face “thumbnails” in the Squad Selection page. I quite like them, actually, regardless of what I had assumed before. 🙂
Qvordrup
@flut could you please share your files that concern the tv logos 👍
