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.

Hello.
Open the "best eleven" file with notepad and delete this line of code:
<integer value="Pnms" />
Have a good day
Hi Flut - thanks for your hard work!
🙂
are you plan to include that automaticly in the Flut Skin?
Link: https://www.fmscout.com/a-football-manager-2021-competition-colour-fix.html
Rosek
Reading the article, this is related to the "steamapps" so nothing to do with the skin ...
flut
Hi Rosek
I fixed that bug and change some things, including other information (as I showed in my last post 🙂  😉
Rosek
👍👍👍.
I think your message is getting through while I was writing on my translator 😂😂😂
flut
🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
flut
Hi
The blur effect when we reload the skin (for example when we click shift+r) is already removed and it will be included in the next version of the skin.
Rosek
@flut
I'm going to ask the question that makes all fans of your skin (and those who only spy on the thread👀👀 ) ask following your last message :
When will the update be released ? 😉😉😂😂
Mag1lc2
Yes, good question! 😊
And my question to you Rosek….when Flut release his official version 10.0, do you release your 2560 x 1440 too?
Or should I ask here in the thread, or how do we want to do that? Or can you send me an PM for example?
Because I would like to have your WQHD version, but with all the new features of the official 10.0. 👍
Rosek
Small remark, I just came across this by chance ... On the goalkeeper report, the third indicator shows tackles ... Can we change it?
Personally, I was a goalkeeper in my youth and you don't learn to tackle goalies 😂😂😂
Rosek
Of course 😉😉
Mag1lc2
Great, I look forward to it! Thanks in advance mate! 👌
Rosek
Following many requests, this link gives access to an almost update 2560x1440 skin.
This skin works correctly with the game zoom at 100% and your screen at 100%.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/ufkx6xwwiyrm8se/fm2021flutskin_dark2560x1440V9.4.rar/file
It just lacks the last changes to Flut that you gave him today. These will be changed when the boss updates the original skin.
I make not update until then ...
Rosek
@flut
I would like to know in which panel to work to retouch the right part (the one with the terrain and the images)?
Indeed, I would like to make it look like the one in the team report.
If of course this is possible.
Rosek
Edit : I managed to modify it !!!! 😉😉😊😊
Evil-Muffin7
Looking forward to seeing the amount of changes implemented into the version 10.
Bielsa is a Legend
since updating i cant get rid of the left hand panel during a match, the rest goes down, but not lhs
any ideas guys?
“fm2021flutskin_dark2560x1440V9.4” inside i use the Full Folder: “fm2021flutskin_dark
in: …\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\skins
Ingame, in my Case, the Kits works fine here:
Link: https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-8923da-1616605332.png.html
but here: not fine
Link: https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-0f7d27-1616605363.png.html
Thanks for help.
🙂
Edit: alternativ this Skin: “Priisek 21 Dark v5.7”
i prefer much more the dark background Style - i prefer them to include in new Flut Skin Version.
and i prefer left and at the bottom dark/grey color Style + include club logo
- because the full screen have so much colors - i feel, less is more then too much colors.
🙂

Hi flut,
First of all thank you very much for the great skin you created, superb work.
I'd like to change the metallic effect round flags you use in the title bar (jpg included)
Am I right is saying theses are 180x180 and located at skins/graphics/pictures/logos/7 flags back right round flags?
Thanking you in advance.
Cheers
Rosek
Hi R Charlston. Doesn't it come off when you click on the clock during the game ?
Normally, this is the only procedure I know of and seen on the SI site…. 🤔🤔
Rosek
Good evening. Yes that's right. This is what Flut puts in base for the skin. However, I don't think you can change the look. See can be with the author of these balls. His name is listed in the description ( Qvordrup).
However, you can put something else in its place if you want ( logo,kits,flags,balls…)
For example, in my game setup :
I am using Frodomin's realistic flags ...
Have a good evening and have a good game.
Rosek
👋👋👋 Mr. old school. Good, to answer your problems
First problem : You must play with the skin with ONLY the icons in the sidebar. This reduces the panels ...
Second problem : You are nothing kits in your graphic folder… Or badly position…
Bielsa is a Legend
Not sure, it’s only just started to happen
will play around
Thank You good Boy.
🙂
sidebar icons only enabled in the Settings: cool - i did not know this feature ever in normal ingame Settings 🙂
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-d0fcbc-1616610839.png.html
by the way: you see in other Screenshot before, with the other Skin, the installed realisitc flags works fine.
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-0b526d-1616605260.png.html
in screenshot before you see, the German flag is normal, not like in other Screenshot with the other Skin
the kits Problem: i use these kits: https://sortitoutsi.net/forums/17/fc-12-kits-forum?type=download
you see in the Picture Screen at first - the kits works fine - but why did not work in players profile view?
that was my issue Thing.
Link. https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-12df76-1616611118.png.html
Edit: in players profile view - the realisitc flags works fine - in Screenshot before - the club overview in my Case not working.
(only in the other Skin, that works fine in team overview)
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-1c5a56-1616611840.png.html
i installed the extracted kits here:
…\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\graphics\kits
and the extracted 3dkits here:
…\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\graphics\kits\3dkits
and which files are for colors for the left and the top side? i want to disable team colors and change to colors, you see in other Skin Picture:
i thing that looks much better
🙂
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-0b526d-1616605260.png.html
Rosek
For the kits, did you download this:
https://sortitoutsi.net/content/44727/2d-kits-1819-for-flutskin-titlebarplayer-overview-v10
For the realistic flags, this is a work make by Frodomin. This is the link :
https://www.fmscout.com/a-frodomin-realistic-flags-fm21.html
For the colors for the sidebar and the tittlebar, to see with Flut
petepompei
Hi Rosek,
Thank you for your answer
now, i have done 3 Steps.
my actually Result in Screenshots.
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-26dbe2-1616617241.png.html
https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-e1b2ff-1616617269.png.html
Note: i told you, Rosek, the realistic flags works fine in example player overview - but with flut skin not in team overview ( in other Skin - it works fine also in team overview)
Note: why have the players not the right Back Kit incluisve the kit Number? ingame they was registrate, so i can not understand why this back of kits is empty.
Edit: now, last Thing, i want to use more the Style of sidebar and titlebar from other Skin, it is better for my eyes: less Colors are better then too much Colors.
🙂
now, i start to find a way to use them - because in FLUTSKIN 2560x1440 alts Folder i did not find a Folder for not team colors sidebar or something like that
Edit: one other Part in my Minds
🙂
TV Logos - like when you play in Germany and the Game start - Players are on the Pitch - that you can see real “Sky Sport Bundesliga Scoreboard”
or “DAZN” Scoreboard - or in Italy “DAZN Italy” Scoreboard and so on…
is that automaticly for each competition editied? or have we something to do - for having that Scoreboard or that Scoreboard
Rosek
From what I see and understand (google translator), you mix several skins together ... Is that just ?
Regarding the TVlogo, it can be modified. To do this, in the TVlogo folder (graphics => icons => TV logos => TV logos) the logo of your choice (which you can complete if you have the logo of another broadcaster), copy it. Then paste it with the others (just before) and rename it "tv logo5" (in my creation) or "tv logo" (in the original Flutskin) to replace the one which is "chosen by default".
Rosek
For your flags and number problem, on the second image you sent, it's not the 2560x1440 resolution panel.
Hi Rosek.
🙂
tv logos: thank you for explain me that. maybe it is possible to create a tv logos competition pack? the 3d balls are in fm21 possible to create like competition package.(that is new in FM!) so, maybe it is possible to create that for TV Logos
Skin: i use your Skin Files: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ufkx6xwwiyrm8se/fm2021flutskin_dark2560x1440V9.4.rar/file
then i test the Skin
then i find some Issues - for me
flags: you see here: https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-26dbe2-1616617241.png.html
= you see at the bottom flags works fine - but you see top left, the flag is not fine
you see the different, what i mean?
Link: https://www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-e1b2ff-1616617269.png.html
= i told you, that i changed that: so, i used your files - and i thought, also the Files form: “FLUTSKIN 2560x1440 alts” and “alt for fc kits Folder” are with resolution 2560*1440
= because i prefer this Place of Players Profile can you change that “alt for fc kits Folder” also to the new resolution?
Thank You!
sidebar and titlebar: i hope Flut can help, because i prefer much more the sidebar/titelbar Style from Priisek 21 Dark v5.7 Skin - i hope it is possible to use that Style in Flut Skin.
Rosek, maybe you can talk with Flut, to make in future Skin Versions it possible, to set in first Post the normal Flut Skin Version Link and under that the wqhd Resolution Skin Version Link - so everybody can see and choose which Version he prefer - and do not search every Thread Page to maybe find the Link for the wqhd Resolution Version. Thanks!
Edit: i can not understand, why the kits numbers are not shown…thanks for help
