Dear all

This is FLUTSKIN Version 8.0 for FM23!!

First of all 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”) to PMPOU for his great contribution with many tickets to customize the skin, to DAZS8 for his great work in the addons for Flutskin. I also thank you for the contributes made by NOLEAFWILEN and RICHBELL. 

In FlutSkin you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present all of them here. I suggest you to go through the panels in order to see with your eyes all the changes!!

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!!

 

You can download the 2D packs prepared for Flutskin (titlebar and player overview panel) here in sourtitoutsi. 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 sortitoutsi Backgrounds Megapack includes player, competition and stadium backgrounds, as well as beautiful city images:  https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/style/17/sortitoutsi-backgrounds-megapack

 

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 donate by clicking here:
https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=E9P4RXKNQBQBS
 

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.

 

[b]How to add Flut Skin in FM23[/b]
Download and extract the .zip file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2023flutskin_dark" folder here: 
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\skins

[*] Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
[*] Start FM23 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
[*] You should see FM 2023 Flut Skin dark - 8.0 as an option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.

BAR15E: when you extract the pack you should look inside the extracted folder. You can see another folder with the name of the skin. is that folder you should place in the skins folder of the game.

 

toilet_in_tibet and kfnielsen: in the next relaese I will include an alt for playing with player attributes without boxes

 

Stefanovski: thanks. I already fixed it and the fix will be included in the next version of the skin.

Hi and thanks!

Sorry but I didn't understand. Could you please explain a little bit what do you want. Ah, by the way, you know you can open the right panel clicking on its left border and pull it to the left, right?

Hi all

 

Some of you (kfihu and Bielsa for now) reported the “pale” attributes.

In fact I changed a little bit the attributes boxes colours in order to have smooth colours  instead of more vivid colors. I also made the new analyser graphics with that colours for a perfect match between the attributes boxes colours and the ring colours. However, you can go back to the previous colours.

For that, go to the settings.xml and change

 

  <!-- background attribute box colours Flut FM23--> 
 <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="146" green="82" blue="143"/> 
  <colour name="low attribute background" red="244" green="152" blue="152"/>
  <colour name="normal attribute background" red="249" green="248" blue="140"/>
      <colour name="good attribute background" red="204" green="237" blue="173"/>
 <colour name="excellent attribute background" red="132" green="213" blue="124"/>

 
 <!-- background attribute box colours Flut 20 v2 
 <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="146" green="82" blue="143"/> 
  <colour name="low attribute background" red="247" green="121" blue="121"/>
  <colour name="normal attribute background" red="245" green="245" blue="85"/>
      <colour name="good attribute background" value="green 200" />
 <colour name="excellent attribute background" value="green" />-->

  <!-- background attribute box colours Flut FM23

Ok. Thanks. So, why you want to move the panels? If you are playing 100% Zoom with that resolution, you just have to drag the right panel to the left in order to fill the full screen (without that horrible space in the middle)  🙂

Hi flut, 

 

Thank you for this amazing skin.

 

Is there any way I can alter anything to show the media logos on news feed screens as well as the images that appear already (or instead of one of the images)?

 

I guess it might vary depending upon the type of news report. I know in the social feed it does show media logos where logos are in use but was wondering if there is a way to apply it in the news feed too? I guess maybe an issue might be how to include it without making things look too cluttered (and also allowing for the fact most people probably don't have or use too many media logos).

 

Just thought to ask because as well as adding a bit more realism, it helps with monitoring the sources used at a glance if working on media files in the editor. 

 

If not possible, thanks for taking the time to consider and thanks again for the brilliant skin. 

 

Thanks

Hi, Just a heads up if you decide to use the alt for playing with player attributes without background boxes then the Current Ability and Potential Ability vanishes with a dark background due to the numbers being in black colour. The only way I have been able to work around this is by adding the boxes code back in for CA and PA. Is there a way to change the CA and PA colour instead?

 

 <widget class="attribute_label" alignment="centre,can_scale" colour="black" style="semi_bold" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" size="10" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper" height="23" >

 

I also have a issue with an overlay in the kit area of the player profile since updating to v4 and I cannot work out how to fix this. This appears against all 6 profile card options. The only profile it looks okay on it Profile FLUT Card Club Background Colour.

 

 

IAmTheStag

also wondered if it is possible to add in CA and PA on screen anywhere on the staff profile page so it is visible without having to use the in game editor?

 

Thanks
