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.

  • 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).

  • Game processing tweaked (changed the stadium picture - from inside to outside)
  • 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.

 

You can donate by clicking here:

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,

The kit makes the back of the jersey appear behind the front of the jersey in overexposure (visible under the sleeves - see attached photo).

Can anyone tell me why ?

Thanks in advance… and sorry for my poor english.

May I know how to interpret these two figures? How to translate these into the CA/PA I usually see?

Hey Flut,

 

Absolutely love this skin and finally have the graphics working the way I want for the most part. I do just have a quick question, the graphics you use for the flags that have the nations location with the target, do you or whoever contributes the graphics take requests, as I have basically reactivated all of the dead nations so it would be nice if they could all follow the same structure as the ‘active’ nations?

Also as a suggestion, I think I noticed mentions of FIFA on some of the Non-FIFA affiliated nations. I am wondering if coming up with some kind of graphic for that would be possible based on the scripting and stuff used in your skin?

I don't mean for any of this to sound patronising, negative or anything else. I'm autistic so communication isn't my strong suite.

These values are in a scale ranging from 0 to 20. For example 16 represents the current ability (is very good although not excellent). Regarding Potential ability, 18-20 means that the higher value of potential for this player could be 20, but will not be necessarily 20. The high value will be between 18 and 20.

Hi and thanks.

Regarding your question, maybe you can try to directly ask to Qvordrup since is Qvordrup who usually update the pack because he have the metallic template.

 

The other question, I really didn't understand, sorry. Could you show a screenshot explaining it?

Hey @flut 

I appreciate you getting back to me. So in terms of the questions. I don't mean the metallic logos, as I know there's a request thread for those but I mean the map bit you use on your skin: (Like below) As I have repurposed all the inactive nations and it would be cool if I could find matching ones.

 


In terms of the second question, I think it's more the competition logo for friendlies rather than anything you've done. The issue for example is with the friendlies, a few of the teams here aren't affiliated to FIFA but I suppose that is more an issue with the limitations of the game than anything you personally have control over?

Both those points should be made to the logo makers not the skin maker, this was pointed out to you in Fluts last response regarding the Nations logos (first question) as it is they who make them for the skin.
The second one is easy to change for yourself as I have done in image below.

Or 

Place the attached logos in your logos comps logo folder, it will not affect any other logos you are using (if using Metallic) config included
 

 

You can also do it like this for Comps with trophies and Clubs by taking it a step further.

@DazS8 ,

 

I'm well aware of that. I know how most of the inner workings of this game work and that's not what I was asking (though I appreciate the response) - The graphical request I was asking about was the map with the target on it, as I thought that was made exclusively for this skin, and the metallic nation logos were something else separate altogether?

As for the comp logos regarding friendlies, I know how to change them and I understand that. What I was attempting to clarify is if the the FIFA logo was simply part of the competition logos for Friendlies or whether it was something that was made part of the skin? At the time I hadn't dived into the graphics folder to check all the comp logos I have and whether or not there was a way to change things so that Non-FIFA affiliated nations don't come up under FIFA friendlies. Admittedly I could have explained that better, but that was what I was attempting to ask.

 

Thanks

As stated both by Flut and myself now twice these are made by the Metallic Logos team, mainly @Qvordrup   specifically for this skin.

 

Many thanks
