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.

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.

Thanks flut, I have managed to move the weight across but some of it's obsured by the fitness icon. How do I move the height and age along a little bit so the weight will fit in? I have attached a screenshot showing what I mean.
Many thanks
flut
You can reduce the size of the number in generic(kit icon38
In the following code increase the value of inset all (this will reduce the number). after taht you should also change the left inset value in order to place the number adjusted in the centre of the kit.
<widget class="picture" id="bNUM" image_alignment="centre" scale_picture="true">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="108"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="112" />
</widget>
flut
Hi
for moving the age to the left go to line 707 and change the value “0” for a number starting by “-” (such as “-15”)
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
for height, do the same but in line 727, changing
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="-75"/>
for, such as, “-85”
Andrew_P
Thanks so much for your help flut, its sorted now 🙂
Just one last question, what do values do I need to change for this to work with the “Profile Flut Card” profile from the drop down box?
Many thanks again
Andrew
shenryo
Thanks again. That is amazing help.
flut
age - line 1716
height - 1736
weight - 1745
shenryo
Ok, all that help worked, but got myself into the match engine and think the boxes on my screen are a bit messed up? Look very different to the images at the front of this?
Is that the case?
Leeds1919
Flut, maybe a daft question but where are line numbers, I right click on config and edit, I can see the file but no line numbers
flut
I use the Notepad++. Is free and is great for working in xmls.
flut
That problem is also due your screen resolution.
You should go to match inbetween highlights.xml and change the values 1010 here (increase “drastically” that value)
<record>
<flags id="alignment" value="horizontal" />
<integer id="min_value" value="1360" />
<integer id="max_value" value="1920" />
<symbol id="set_property" value="width" />
<integer id="true_value" value="1010" />
<integer id="false_value" value="1010" />
</record>
after that you should put the same value you choose, in here
<integer id="TbWm" value="1010"/> <!-- 1360 - 1920 -->
Andrew_P
Thanks for your help flut 🙂
One other question, is there any way I can move the small flag further to the left as well?
Many thanks
flut
You can do it in line 1686 (for profile flut card)
Andrew_P
Sorry flut, i'm confusing myself now! - This is for the “Profile” option, I just need to move the nation flag to the left a little so everything can fit in on the bar.
Many thanks
flut
Do you want for Profile? Oh sorry. Many guys asking and, sometimes, I'm also a little confused as to who I'm responding to.
For Profile is in line 745
shenryo
Hi. When you say “drastically”, what do you mean? I have tried various combinations and it doesn't seem to budge at all.
flut
You should still trying to increase the value (I don't know what value you should use since I have not your screen resolution). Don't forget you have to reload the game (shift+r) after each change and also not forget that you should use the mouse to drag the panel to the left (enlarge it) after each change.
shenryo
in the Match folder ----→ match in between highlights panel.xml file?
increase the three 1010 references?
flut
Yes. In that panel. Try to increase the value 1573 in the following code
<record>
<flags id="alignment" value="horizontal" />
<integer id="min_value" value="1920" />
<integer id="max_value" value="10000" />
<symbol id="set_property" value="width" />
<integer id="true_value" value="1573" />
<integer id="false_value" value="1573" />
</record>
after that, put the same value in
<integer id="TbWl" value="1573"/> <!-- 1920 up -->
shenryo
Ok, I put those to 2573 and it went full screen, losing the left side panel of extra info - maybe something in between is sweet spot
shenryo
2222 was the magic number - thanks so much again - hopefully that's everything 🤞🏻

light skin isnt?
Leeds1919
isnt what?
Leeds1919
has anybody got an updated file for this
shenryo
Hmmmm… my half time tactics seems a bit messed up, too. This doesn't look right, does it? There's no tactics panel???
shenryo
Also, Flut - is there a way to make the top panel a little bigger - feels small in game - where the team names and scores are housed
shenryo
Sadly noticing a few issues as I progress. Love this skin, so will try to persevere, but another thing: is there a way to permanently change FOCUS ON ATTACKS panel to PLAYER RATINGS. When I click on a game I have always enjoyed seeing both teams player ratings. Tried doing this manually, but it resets every time.
Joe Churchman
hi all, i think i have messed up, I was trying to get the 2d kits so it would fix the collar issue i was having and somehow i have changed settings so that i cant get the kits for Liverpool at all and i am completely stuck, I am a complete novice working with notepad++ and i am certain it was something i did wrong i just have no clue how to fix it i have tried removing skin, using a different skin and it still seems to be only an issue with Liverpool who are the only team i use to play, all other kits and teams work fine, any help in this would be greatly received.
flut
- Go to match full time review panel.xml and in line 460
Replace
<widget class="match_view_selector_panel" id="set3" pause_match_on_menu_opening="true" default_item="mltp" file="client_object/client object viewer selector match" >
with
<widget class="match_view_selector_panel" id="set3" pause_match_on_menu_opening="true" default_item="mltp" file="client_object/client object viewer selector match" save_session_state="true">
- Regarding tactics you should click on tactics button in order to display the pitch with the players.
- You also talked about the height of the match titlebar. This i salso related with your screen resolution. My suggestion is to use the adapted version of the skin for 2560x1440 (adapted by Rosek) – the link is there, below the link for original version of the skin.
shenryo
Can't stress enough how much I appreciate the replies to fix this.
What did the first of those lines do? The replacement code - doesn't appear to have changed anything.
Also, is changing the skin the only way to make this screen more full?
xmanro
the ligt variant is not
