Dear all

This is FLUTSKIN version 6.0 for FM22!!

Ten years (!!!!) after start editing the Flutskin I would like to give a great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still editing the skin and gave me new ideas!!!

A special thank you to all of 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 thank you to all the skin makers who indirectly contribute to my work, and a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin), to MICHAEL MURRAY since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work, to QVORDRUP, for the metallic “Round country flags” and his great collaboration in the “country locator maps”, to NUNO KOPIO for the “Square shiny flags” I included as alt files (for using as an alternative to the “Round country flags”) and to DAZS8 for his great work in the addons for Flutskin.

This FLUTSKIN for FM22 is almost equal to the last version of Flutskin for FM21. Therefore, you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present them here. I suggest you to see with your eyes all the changes!!

 

Main changes in 6.0 of FLUTSKIN:
- Home panel (individual match analysis included)
- Player popup panel (information about media handling style and personality included)
- Player profile panel (drop down arrow with two profile styles included; profile 1 as it was in version 5.0; profile 2 with the front and back kits instead of the attributes analyser)

 

The pack includes many alt files for customize the skin (please read the read me file included in the pack) and several tutorials: 1) how should be the configs for the stadiums packs; 2) how can you adjust the size and the place of the kit number in player overview panel; 3) how can you do the 2D kits adapted for Flutskin. BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE ALT FOLDERS AND ALSO AT THE READ ME AND TUTORIAL FILES!!

FC style kits https://sortitoutsi.net/content/44727/2d-kits-1819-for-flutskin-titlebarplayer-overview-v10 SS Kits style https://sortitoutsi.net/content/57825/ss-kits-as-logo-left-for-flut-skin

 

 

If you prefer SS'kits as default kits, you can download this and replace the kits folder located here: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\skins\fm2022flutskin_dark\graphics\pictures\kits
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.

 

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]  https://sortitoutsi.net/forums/topic/44650/city-pictures-mega-pack and https://www.fmscout.com/a-fm20-stadiums-megapack-flut.html#c47975

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.

 

Important note regarding kit number and name in the player overview panel:

Since many people asked about the adjustments in the number and name in the kits (in player overview panel), and also since I already answered that many many times, I decided to make my “job” easier, avoiding answering that question again, and again and again 🙂.

Thus I did a tutorial which is included in the skin pack.


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.

 

[b]How to add Flut Skin in FM22[/b]
Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2022flutskin_dark" folder here: 
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\skins

[*] Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
[*] Start FM22 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
[*] You should see FM 2021 Flut Skin dark - 5.0 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.

Anyone else have an issue with not being able to open the Data Hub from the sidebar icon/name? I can access it with the base skin, but not with the Flut skin….maybe it's the button I'm using from an older Flut skin? All the other sidebar items will open when I click them.

 

There is a conflict with the unlock japanese clubs file. Thus, if you are using that alt, just remove it, clear the cache and reload the game,

@flut

 

Hi,

 

I have shared 2 screenshoots with you about my problems.

 

I've read all message on thread and i tried to fix that problem yesterday almost 2-3 hours but i haven't solved yet.

 

Could you explain step one step clearly how can i solve this problem please? Thank you.

 

Regarding your second screenshot, in my comment of  09 Nov 2021 17:07:50 I talked about that problem.

 

"Hi all

 

Since many people asked about the adjustments in the number and name in the kits (in player overview panel), and also since I already answered that many times, I decided to make my “job” easier, avoiding answering that question again, and again and again 🙂.

Thus I did a tutorial for that. 

Here is the link for that tutorial.

Regarding that screenshot I don't know what happens, since I never saw that problem, but I believe that is due to not have the packs of 2D and or 3D kits (or logos…) for your club. But…as I said, I really don't know.

Just one flaw in the skinvthat I can see.  When I put the league stage screen on the names are perfect.  HHowever,  wwhen I put the next fixtures screen up which has the current league standings on it in a smaller panel,  tthe teams with longer names have only the 6 letter name such as wolver and dagenh for example.  Looks like the panel isn't wide enough.  When I put the 4 league stage panels in from last season they all fit.

I can't open the Data Hub either, or attend staff meetings (that I've scheduled for every week).

Found another mention of this issue here:

https://sortitoutsi.net/content/59018/data-hub#comment_660136

 

And here:

https://community.sigames.com/bugtracker/football-manager-2022-bugs-forum/football-manager-2022-early-access-beta-bugs-forum/user-interface/data-hub-isnt-opening-r2414/

 

The person there says the data hub started working again after they removed their custom skin. (Didn't mention which skin it was.)

 

 

EDIT: Can confirm removing the Japan Clubs Overwiev fix helped; both Data Hub and Staff Meeting work now.

 

@flut  I do kindly hope some fix can be found so the Japanese clubs can be accessed again soon?

I'm hoping to start a career in japan at some point.

If possible, enable the option to present the "Last 11" on the club screen.

Hi. Yes is the space for team names. You can do one of two things:

  • remove the icons of win, lost, draw or reduce the font in the tables. For this second option you can use this file

This is the first year I've ever had a problem with the kits appearing in the player profiles. I have done everything suggested - replacing the Kits folder, downloading Notepad++ and doing the club/nation changes and I'm still stuck with the generic shirts instead of the SS 2D kits.

 

 

The only thing I can think of is maybe I have the file in the wrong place - you say put it in the “logo files of the game” - what file is this meant to be? Do you mean of the skin? To my knowledge the game has no logos folder?

 

Also, how do I stop the age of the player overlapping his weight in the profile picture, please?

 

Thanks for your great work as ever!

Scrap that, it's randomly started working after a few restarts and a couple of cache clears! But is it still possible to change the weight and age overlapping? Also, can the squad numbers be made any bigger?

 

Also, regarding the weight, is there a way to get it to look better on the squad overview page? I understand it's probably because I use stones/pounds but it's not overly visible despite the column being expanded

Hi Flut, tx for nice skin !

 

I cant seem to get the FC'12 kits to display correct in the player profile. 

I have the player background pic behind the kit which is displayed not as FC12 kit and with a too large number on top of it. 

 

How can I remove the kit and number and just have the player background pic displayed ?

Hi. Thanks.

Regarding the text of weight, in fact the unities you chosen use all the space available. My suggestion is to remove the information of condition and move the weight to the right.

For that, and for the option you use (profile flut card and stadium) you should 

  1. remove the following code (lines 195 - 204)

 <!-- condition -->
  <widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel"  alignment="left" icon_alignment="left">
       <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="130" />
  <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="centre" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="-5"/>
      <record id="widget_info" class="player_condition_icon_widget" appearance=""  label_disabled="true" scale_picture="false" icon_alignment="right"/>
      <record id="widget_properties" alignment="right,centre_y"/>
      <record id="object_property" get_property="PcOI"/>
     </widget>

 

2. line 172, change

 <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="46"/>

 

for

 

 <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="66"/>

 

Concerning the squad view, you can open (enlarge) the weight column with the mouse.

After the files extracted, open the skin pack folder, take a folder with the name of the skin. Is that folder (and only that) you should place directly in the skins folder of the game.

thanks…..…since I haven't added it, something else is causing the data hub & staff meetings tabs to not work. As others mentioned, they work fine with base skin….just not when adding the FLUT skin…..I'll just remove the skin when I want to look at the data hub and choose to not attend staff meetings to avoid getting stuck as I can't live without my Flut Skin !!
