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 club overview panel (new staff pictures and information with rotating animation; new tab regarding “derbies”; layout tweaked).

  • 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.

 

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


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. Thank you all for your kind words!!!!

 

Regarding the questions:

 

Darkside63

  1. First issue seen - on player detail screen, CA line is almost completely cut off… - yes. That is due the fact we don’t have the Ingame Editor (IGE). That box contains hidden attributes and only works after we install the IGE. Until that we have to choose other box in drop down arrow.
  2. The inbox bug – that is also present in the default skin. However, now I fixed it. The fix will be included in the next release of the skin.
  3. When going to tactic window, it always starts with the view including the bench - yes, for that go to team instructions mini overview.xml and change

<container class="tabbed_container" appearance="" id="Trak" default_item="blic" save_session_state="true">   

For

<container class="tabbed_container" appearance="" id="Trak" default_item="bloc" save_session_state="true">   

 

        4. For ticket: go to match team news panel.xml and change

<container class="tabbed_container" id="Xvfd" default_item="abcv" priority="1" save_session_state="true">

For

<container class="tabbed_container" id="Xvfd" default_item="avxs" priority="1" save_session_state="true">

 

         5. If I want to switch the news source to “transfermarkt” - where would I need to put the two files (jpg, xml) ? 

You just have to replace the current graphic for 365 (which is the default one), in graphics/boxes/news.

Replace the png file named football365.png for your of transfermarkt and keep the name football365.png

 

Stefanovski

The skin includes condition/sharpness. If it doesn’t work in your game, I believe is a conflict with other skin. Please keep only this skin in the skins folder, clear the cache, exit the game and reload it.

 

Also noticed that all the scouting screens now has a gap in between the list of players. this is also the case for the staff search. – If you are talking about the rows space, that is due to the fact that the skin includes the players faces (they are not showed in your screenshot – again, I believe is due to a conflict among skins).

Look at my screenshot

 

Bielsa is a Legend

Yes you can use them. Maybe there are just a few that don’t work well….

 

Thank you. That worked. Just donated as fm wouldn't be the same without this skin

Great job! I love all of them. However, for default numbers  I would exclude the first one since is specific from Portuguese League. Maybe the fourth? I believe it depends on how they look in other numbers….

I'll  do some samples, and some ingame samples also, and post them. If you have the FLUT lettering or font i could use them instead, also if you have a better defnition of your logo i can edit it and use it has i did on with the SI logo.

Thanks for your proposal. However, do it according your own  taste 🙂. I really don't like to include stuff signalizing FLUT because in a certain way “oblige” the people to have that kind of marks, and I prefer keep the skin adjusted for using by anyone.

Hi @flut - I'm not sure if I am missing something obvious, but I cannot find the buttons to change the match speed and camera angles? Where are they, please?

I've attached an image of my match screen.

Check your current view in tactics window.

 

Make sure one of your columns is

 

Overal Physical Condition/Match Sharpness

 

This should do the trick…

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.

 

Thanks for the info - done just that removed all apart from this skin from the skins folder - cleared the cache reloaded the game - seems all good now with the strange lines gone and looks normal attributes graphics - thanks

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, this is my new favorite skin. Quick question. My games are “broadcast” by Sport TV 1. Is there a way to change that to NBC Sports/Peacock for American viewers?
