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 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.

Hi mate, could you share the file?
this would be a great add on to the best skin available
thanks

Sorry for not replying for two months. I gave up on hoping you would reply. Hey, man, I respect your time, that's why I asked that I do adjustments and provide the community with the fix. Let's be honest, your skin is great on 4K, but it's broken on 1080p. On 100% zoom, it looks even worse. Pardon my harsh words. I see what you are doing and how you want it to look. At 1080p it doesn't, though you say in description that it is compatible with 1080p it just isn't. Again, sorry for the harsh words, I don't want to crap on your work because it is arguably the skin I like the most, and I absolutely love how it looks at 4K. But at the same time, I really do want to unload on your attitude toward the 1080p compatibility and towards an offer to help you by making the adjustments needed for it to look at 1080p the way it does at 4K.
I can imagine how much time it took you to make this look and function the way it does. So let me put it this way, you did 95% of the work excellently. It's a gorgeous thing. There are hundreds of details that are just *cheff's kiss * . But those remaining 5% (adapting for 1080p) just are not on the same level. Sorry again for the harsh words, but it gives the impression that you like your own work just 95%.
That wasn't a question man. But an observation that people will think they have downloaded a broken skin when they see there is none of those logos. You should either mention in the main post that screenshots are made with them, or make new screenshots with default logos. Your screenshots don't match what is in the skin because they contain what is not in them. That's a big no-no. Friendly advice, think about the users as if they are all smart as much as the dumbest person you have ever had {the pleasure} to meet.
Player Panel 1, Player Panel 2, and so on. You can change the player card on Player Panel 1, the thing where their portrait is. But on all other Player Panels that thing is preset, it doesn't matter which one is selected on Player Panel 1, it's always the same one. Player Panel 2 is always “Player Flut Card and Stadium”, Player Panel 3 is always “Player Flut Card", Player Panel 4 is always “Player Without Background”, Player Panel 5 is always “Player Flut Stadium”, Player Panel 6 is always “Player Flut Team Colours”.
It doesn't make sense to be able to change it on Player Panel 1, and it doesn't get changed automatically on other panels.
You're welcome!!! I hope that someone has found it useful.

Hi
Every year (from FM 2013) I edit the skin with a 1920x1080 screen resolution. The last season and this season I edit it using a 4k (3840x2160). However, I edit the skin adapting it for be used in 200% windows display settings. Thus, the skin works well with that screen resolution. I tried the skin (a few months ago) with my old monitor (1920x1080; 100% ZOOM) and it works well (exactly as in 3840x2160, 200% windows display settings, wich, of course, is expected considering that adjusting Windows display settings to 200% with a native resolution of 3840x2160, it effectively makes the content appear as if the screen resolution were 1920x1080). Thus, I really don't understand why you say that the skin not works well in 1920x1080….
Regarding the logos, yes you are right. I assumed that people know that logos, player pictures, trophies, etc are not included in the skin (as are not included in other skins and in default skin). However, you are right when you say that there are people who don't know this. I will follow your suggestion in the future if I still edit the skin for next FM24.
Concerning the Player Panels I also agree with you. In fact I started by using the drop down arrow in all the player panels (and not only for Player Panel 1). That option is, indeed, the best. However, only one of the panels work well with that. The other panels (and I don«t know why) don't work correctly. Therefore, I had to remove that option in the other panels and only use it in Player Panel 1.
cheers

@flut the skin is perfect in 1920 x 1080, ignore the idiotic comments

vonHolzminden
I can´t believe what i´m reading. Create your own skin and let us play with the flut skin.
@flut Please don´t let it to you what he was writing.

@flut
First of all congratulations on this great skin! By far the best I've used so far.
I have a couple of questions on how to make some small changes. In the attached match details view, I've made changes on the first panel by resizing the windows and choosing “Misc” for the displayed info. But these changes doesn't stick. They go away after every break (halftime or if I go to tactics during the game). Is there a way to save them as the default format/view?
How can I replace the heart/cycle icons with percentages in the in-match tactics view (I'd like to do that everywhere, but let's focus on this for now 😀slightly_smiling_face: ?
Thanks!

Thanks for your effort and sharing

Get rid of the sidebar (as instructions) and use Flut player card in drop down menu
Kenneth Crawford
First off, the skin is awesome.
One minor issue, when I load the skin up it is almost too big for the screen. So I've had to scale to 85 percent.
Is this normal, everything is very small. But it's the only way I'm fitting everything in.
Bielsa is a Legend
Depends on your monitor
remove sidebar for starters to just icons

Hey any idea flut or anybody how to sort the weight playing on 2560x1440 zoom in (125%) and this other section that says about last trasfer its cutout
Immolate
Hi. Thank you so much for the skin. Can someone please tell me how to add a percentage display of players' physical readiness for the match on the tactics screen. In the author's screenshots there is such a column, but I do not have it and I can not add it.
UPD: Just to clarify, I can add a player's condition column only in the form of "hearts", but I want to see the percentage of the player's physical condition at a glance
bartdude
Firstly, set the sidebar to icons only, in settings.
jordanmc
I changed that and unfortunately it made no difference.
jordanmc
So manged to fix the transfer section i had highlighted before but still not sure what panel to adjust for the weight etc
bartdude
Ok, play with the settings in the attached text, until you get the spacing required.
jordanmc
