Dear all

This is FLUTSKIN FM24 

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. 
 
If you already know FLUTSKIN from the last seasons you already know what you wil find. It should be noted that if you expect to find a different style of the FLUTSKIN you will be disappointed. If you like it as it is last year you will be satisfied since the FLUTSKIN for FM24 is like FLUTSKIN for FM23 (there are just small things changed after the final version of FLUTSKIN for FM23). 

In FlutSkin you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present all of them here  (you can see a part in the screenshots) . I suggest you to go through the panels in order to see with your eyes all the changes!! For now, the pack doesn't include alt files. However, if you wantm you can use the alts for FM23 since I believe almost of them work properly in this version.

 

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

 

BETA 1 - VERSION - As the other FLUTSKINS this version includes: instant result (in tactics and during the match); citypics availability, home page, player page, club page, match inbetween highlights with many tabs for choosing, etc, etc.

 

THIS VERSION INCLUDES ALSO MANY ALT FILES. FOR USING THEM, PLEASE READ THE FILE read me for alt files.pdf.

All the reported bugs were fixed

A few teaks were done

 

PLEASE NOTE THAT 

  1. the citypics pack, the kits adapted for FLUTSKIN, Logos and "normal" 2D  kits are not included in the pack.
  2. AFTER EXTRACT THE SKIN FOLDER YOU SHOULD LOOK INSIDE THE FOLDER. THE FOLDER WITH THE SKIN NAME IS THAT ONE YOU SHOULD PLACE IN THE SKINS FOLDER
  3. IF YOU ARE PLAYING WITH THE PROPERLY RESOLUTION AND SIDEBAR ICONS ONLY  YOUR PANELS SHOULD BE DISPLAYED EXACTLY AS IN THE SCREENSHOTS. IF NOT, CONSIDER THAT THERE IS A CONFLICT WITH OTHER SKINS: CLEAR THE CACHE, KEEP ONLY THIS SKIN IN THE SKINS FOLDER OF THE GAME AND RELOAD THE GAME.

  • New operation of the TV Logo during a match (now you have different TV Logos, according different competitions; I included an alt folder with many TV Logos for replacing the default TV Logos included by those you want; the alt folder included was made by DAZS8)

FLUTSKIN FM24 V 2.0

Important recognitions regarding this version:

  • I would like to express my special gratitude to Darkside63, who challenged me for most of the new stuff in the skin and helped me to implement them, and also to DasZ8, for the help regarding Social Feed and for the inclusion of the new Alt with Backgrounds Adds. I also reinforce my gratitude to all the skin makers and specially those I refer in the new changes of this FlutSkin version.

 

Now, the changes in this version:

  • New social feed panel (adapted from the work of DasZ8 and EVO).
  • New club overview panel (new staff pictures and information with rotating animation; new tab regarding “derbies”; layout tweaked).
  • New button in titlebar - “Skin Support”-  with quick links for FLUTSKIN forums, donation, FLUTSKIN Essentials and other useful downloads (adapted from the work of GROOT in his ELECTRIC PANTHER Skin).

  • Last eleven in Nation panel tweaked included - the front kits alternate with back kits)

  • Some tweaks here and there and, as in the previous versions, I included a pack with many alt files for customize the skin according your taste

 

PLEASE NOTE:

  1. If the skin doesn’t have the same stuff as in the screenshots and you are playing with my recommended Resolution requirements, please consider to clear the cache, keep only this skin and this skin version in the skins folder of the game and reload the game.
  2. Before asking something, please look at the read me files. There are 7 read me files which I believe answer many questions regarding the skin.
  3. When you report bugs or present requests, please show screenshots showing what you are talking about.

 

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.

THE SKIN IS TOTALLY COMPATIBLE WITH 1920x1080 SCREEN RESOLUTION AND 4k (windows display settings 200%; game 100%).

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.

This is the current aftergame page - beautiful btw!

 

 

Is it possible to add the xG into the marked area additonally - between shots on goal and Fouls total for example? I know it's at the right bottom corner already but it would be very nice to have it in the middle section as well…

Firstly, thank you for your work @flut  as this is my favourite skin! I used this in FM21 and FM22 with no issues but I am having some sizing issues now that i have 4k screen and settings. I have been through this thread and the FM23 thread but cannot work out how to fix this or even find the PDF mentioned in the comments. I am not good with coding etc 😢 . I am using 3840 x 2160 and was on windows 150% but changed it to 200% which fixed the numbers but not the whole issue- 2nd screenshot. Also why don't i have the player profile pics i see in your screenshots? Any help is appreciated.

 

 

I have a similar problem with displaying the number on the jersey (it is too large). I use a resolution of 2560x1440 and of course I know that it has been written about many times, but I am also not entirely expert in this topic. Would you be so kind as to adapt the correct file with the appropriate values ​​to this resolution and tell me where to place it. I am happy to ask for help from other players who probably already know this topic. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi all

 

Here is the FLUTSKIN for FM24 - Beta Version.

I hope you like it.

I tried to fix the bugs reported in the FM23 FLUTSKIN. However, I really appreciate if you report new bugs you find.

 

Thanks!!

 

Hi Flut, great skin! @ Flut and other lads here:   I have little question,  playing a  ‘pre competition’ match >> from first half to second half>> Which button/function takes me to  go the team instructions and prepare second half ? I can't find this and therefore can't go to the 2nd half,  see attached print screen,  please let me know, thanks! best P

Heh, I came on here to point out a bug, but I'd also just realised I changed the zoom setting to 95% and that's what jiggered it. Back on 100% and all is good again!

Hi, great skin! Been using it on FM23 as well! One thing is there a way to enable the sim button to skip matches? I like to skip matches sometimes (like friendlies or some cup matches etc).

You mean like in Narigon Skin as an example? 

 

Yeah, that would be nice to be able to just sim the rest of a running match if we feel it's decided already…

You might be right. I edited the colour of the players stats I felt some of the colours were a bit faded and I also edited to make the stars show better in the club overview. The skin still works, I was just wondering if anyone had came across those errors.

Some skins have an additional IR button that can be activated during a match. Say you're 5-0 up and can't be bothered with the last 20 minutes - you can hit IR from that point. I'd love to see it in FLUT myself.

I just found that the stadium owner does not show up on the stadium overview panel:

 

 

On a different panel, stadium owner is still there… However I think the information is collected differently…

 

(Stadionbesitzer = Stadium owner)

I could be wrong but I think you have to unzip the folder then put the folder within the folder into skins?If that makes sense

Thank you all, namely to those one who contributed with a donation (and every year still continue support my work with the kind donation) !! I really really appreciated that.

 

bartdude – I already fixed the missing information in the match titlebar and match full time panel

 

robinsonik and Mark Patman: please read the file I put as annex. I explain there how could you solve that problem.

 

Mark Patman: Regarding player pics,  I really don’t know. Maybe there is a conflict between this skin and other in your skins folder. Try to clear the cache, keep only this skin in the skins folder and reload it.

 

Nikolaosaek: Thanks! I will release the new version ASAP and I will include an extra file for left side to club colour as an alt 

 

NunoKopio : love the numbers! Maybe if you keep the numbers general and not specific from a certain league will be great. I believe they are great and I also believe I can use them as default in the skin. Thanks!!

 

Stefanovski: Thanks. Now, in the new version, the recommendation information will be there.

 

 dilligaf and ADJ1980: For fix when the players age is overlapping the players weight, go to player flut stadium.xml and change the left inset value (now is 70) in:

<!-- Peso -->                                  

<widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="Pwel" style="bold" colour="primary" size="11">

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="133.5" />

<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="70"/>

<record id="object_property" get_property="Pwei"/>

<record id="widget_properties" alignment="centre, centre_y"/>

</widget>          

 

 

After that, remove the following code (this will remove the condition icon)

<!-- condition-->

<widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="conv" alignment="left" icon_alignment="left">

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="133" />

<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="-7"/>

<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>

 

 

SDC503: Thanks – however, it never happened in my game. Maybe is a conflict with other skin? Try to clear the cache, keep only this skin in the skins folder and reload the game.

 

DazS8: I already changed the font in social media and recoloured it to white. And great that you solved your issues!! 

 

danny11 – Thanks. You can do it only if you play with attributes without background boxes. I will include an alt folder for playing with attributes without background boxes in the next release of the skin.

 

Darkside63

  • About stadium owner there is nothing related to the skin. I also go to that panel of Kaiserslautern and the stadium owner was not present. However it is displayed in many others. 
  • I couldn’t find the code for xG …sorry.
  • For continue bottom. You can find the button in graphics/chrome/buttons/continue/button. However, I already removed that purple in the next version of the skin.
  • The code for back kit (which are the default 2D kits ) is in the respective xml. For example, for the drop down arrow Player Flut Stadium is in the file player flut stadium.xml and is the following (that code also points to another xml named kit icon34.xml

<widget id="cKit" class="kit_icon" file="generic/kit icon34" scale_picture="true" kit_zoom_level="2" priority="1">

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="1"/>

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="80" />

 <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="20" />

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="15" />     

<record id="object_property">

<list id="get_properties">

<record>

<integer id="get_property" value="Pers" />

<integer id="set_property" value="objt" />

</record>

</list>

</record>

</widget> 

 

Eslamlotfy: that is due your screen resolution. Why you don’t try to play with the sidebar icons only?

 

Bielsa is a Legend, Michail Papantonakis, Darkside63, andyinasia: Yes is exactly as dilligaf said: The skin includes the Instant Result option in the tactics screen and during the match.

 

broxi713: after extract, open the folder and look inside of it. If there is another folder with the skin name, is that folder you should place directly inside the skins folder of the game.
