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

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.

you can change the founding date position in club overview panel.xml in the following code (change the value top inset - now is 38 - ypu should increase that value)
<widget class="dashed_number_label" spec="text" style="bold" id="CyfV" size="9" colour="secondary" alignment="centre_x,top" auto_size="vertical">
<boolean id="NumF" value="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="38" />
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="Cyfn" />
</record>
</widget>

You can easily adjust the name and the number. Please read the Changing the size and place of kit number and kit name.pdf included in the alts folder of the skin.
flut
Great job Dazs8. Thank you!! Of course I will include it as an alt folder!!!
Cheers and thanks!!
flut
The code for for that page is in the fixture list panel.xml and is the following. In the skin it points to the default.jpg. You just have to change backgrounds/default for backgrounds/[the name of the jpg you want to use]
<container>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" />
<widget class="picture" file="backgrounds/default" id="bgnd">
<boolean id="scale_picture" value="true" />
<boolean id="keep_aspect_ratio" value="false" />
</widget>
<widget class="picture" file="boxes/overlay/30/30" scale_picture="true">
<boolean id="keep_aspect_ratio" value="false" />
</widget>
</container>

Thank you flut…It works great
Cheers…

Strange, because the config file is set up correctly as shown, just check for me that yours is like this.
As you can see they show on my game…..
Darkside63
Maybe someone can give me a quick push into the right direction…
Nevermind… 🙂
Darkside63
Great, already fixed it for me. Reducing configured font size by 1 was sufficient…

Hi there, I got a similar problem with my kits displayed in the player panel. In my case I'm speaking about the GK kits. I created own kits and an own team. Everything is fine so far but for the GK it displays the home kit and in the background the GK kit is visible. Is there an opportunity to let the GK kit being displayed for the GKs?
And if not could you maybe help me fixing my issue?
In my folder structure there is actually just the three team kits and the config file that i attach here.
Thanks a lot! 🙂
roccccccki
Yes I´ve got this path in this config. Can you help me with path for folders:
I think I have a mistake rather in the location of these files, because the logos and facepacks are working me perfect. Can you help me with this where paste this folders and which is better.
DazS8
I put them with my kits mate….as thats what they are after all……
DazS8
Goalkeeper kits cant be viewed like this…..never been able to my friend.
Unless you change your teams home kit into a gk kit instead but then all the rest of the team would then have gk kits
flut
Hi
I don't know if the rocccccki problem was already solved. However, it seems that he made some “confusion” about the types of kits.
Sorry if is not this, and I am wrong, but honestly I read the posts “diagonally”
Darkside63
Just realized a minor issue on the home page:
Both coach names look a bit squeezed - where can we change this?
LerOyy10
Hi flut,
I choose the option for club and national team management.
Unfortunately the national team jersey shows in player overview at club level…
The rest of the clubs/players are showing fine. Do you know what I can do about this?
flut
Go to team upcoming fixture badges manager home.xml and change lines 82 and 209
font="match report score"
for
font="match report scorec"
flut
I'm affraid theres is a bug that I can't explain. I believe that after click on continue, the correct kit will be displayed….
gmyrek
Hi Flut!
Great skin, I use it every year.
On the stadium page, I have a aerial view of the stadium on the top and a inside stadium image on the bottom. When I click on “full screen image”, I get a full screen image of my aerial view, but with a black foreground. Is there a way to take away the black foreground? Thanks.
ElvisMan
Hello, I've been having a lot of fun using this skin, it's really elevated the game experience, I appreciate all of the time you spent on it.
I have 2 quick questions based on this image:
Thanks.
vonHolzminden
I don't know by heart right now, but it has already been explained here in the thread. Take a look at the previous pages.
dastef
good day! is it intentional that only the stars are displayed and no longer the rating of the employee e.g. very good player in the 1st league, player of the extra class in the 2nd league and so on... thank you for the feedback
DazS8
You just drag the one on the right across mate
Kinkladze10
Amazing work as always, I've read the instructions and have tried some of the alt options but they don't seem to work.
I'm trying to remove the behind kit and also I want to move the left kit over to the left so there is more space so it's not overlapping on my widescreen monitor.
Any ideas please as you kindly helped me last year
eno_97
I adjusted the sidebar according to the club color in the alternative section. How can I restore it?
knipser666
Why is the large panel with trainer pictures, jerseys and weather no longer displayed?
It still worked in FM23.
bartdude
Monitor/Laptop screens will display differently, depending on the resolution and zoom level you play at. If you cannot drag any further to the left and fully align with the “notable events” panel, you need to go to your match folder and select “match in between highlights”, (save it first, I just right click it and make a zip file, making it easy to unzip and restore the original file if it goes wrong). Then scroll down to <!-- Notable Events, Match stats --> <container width="477"> and increase the value of the number displayed. It's somewhat experimental to get it spot on, so I'd suggest a number increase of around 100 above your current level, which should be a default of “342”. As you can see in my case it's quite a large number increase. Once you get it right, it will display a fully filled IBH screen every time you boot/reboot the game. As for your second issue are you aware that all the right hand screens are resizable, both vertically and horizontally ? Experiment to find a better compromise, although too much and you'll lose some detail in adjacent panels. Have fun !
