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.

  • 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 great skin but having a minor problem when starting a match with the team previews as per screenshot number 3 on the main page.  I have the sortitout's mega logo back installed which changes the flags to the nations crests but they are slightly taller than the default flags and are overlapping with the players names.  I was wondering if it was possible to get an “alt" or some instructions on how to prevent them from overlapping.  Thanks

I'm not following the thread here right now. But is there a scoreboard option? e.g. the scoreboard of the Premier League or Bundesliga? I've seen some skins that have that and thought it was great. But I don't know how and whether it works with the skin.

Hi. to use flut skin with these new modern Scoreboards would be fantastic.

i hope, flut include them in maybe (final) Update of fm24 Skin.

We will see …

I've got a really annoying problem if anyone can help. I'm seeing in everyone else's screenshots that in the player card bit they have both the nation flag AND the nation logo. Without any logo packs, I just had the flags, so then I got a logopack and now both of them are just the national team logos. Does anyone know how I can get it like everyone else and have the national team flag and logo? Cheers.

Hi flut,

 

I have a problem with the skin. In the tactics section, in the pitch board, the kit alternate with oficial kits and default kit but only show me the oficial kits, the other default kit is transparent. This only occur with my team, with IA teams works perfect. I delete the skin, I've uninstalled and clean cache but don't work nothing…and don't show me the circles with the player fit…

Can you help ???

Hi. You should have the folder which have the small nation flags in a way that could be read before the logos folder (the game read the folders in alphabetical order).

The national flags folder should have the config like the following example:

<record from="africa/alg" to="graphics/pictures/nation/5/icon"/>

HI

2 questions

 

How do I increase the height of the goal bar, 

and at the bottom, the players fatigue disappeared. How can I put back? 

Thanks

 

Regarding the first question, try to go to the match title bar.xml and increase the value <container height="55">. However the background graphics of the match titlebar will not be adjusted. Thst is a little bit more difficult to explain, since you have to change many pieces of code….Thus, you can try to do as I told you but I don't recommend because as you will see, the bar will not be adjusted.

Regarding the second question if that stuff desappeared it should be due to some conflict. Don't forget to keep only this skinin the skins folder of the game, clear the cache and reload the game.

How can I change the title bar itself at the top? Please tell me the settings in the config.xml file when using Ligue 1 or La Liga notation.

 

Sorry. Could you explain a little bit more? And maybe with a screenshot showing what you want…

Yes. Bielsa is right. I included the licensed EFL and Bundesliga scoreboards (and the UEFA cups) in the skin. Regarding the new “mods” with scoreboards I will not include them. Sorry. And also as Bielsa said, I don't intend to release any update. Sorry.

GOT IT! Thank you for solving this little issue! Small issue, but huge impact! Thank you( ´∀`)

 

i managed to remove the kits in panel 1 and several others but I'm getting an error message.  Not that big a deal as it doesn't stop play but would be nice to eliminate the source of the error

I've got the solution. 

Delete these lines in the panel “press conference panel" in the human folder:

 

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" />

 <container>

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" />

   <widget class="picture" id="prCN" file="backgrounds/press" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="false">
       <attachment class="test_multiple_globals_attachment" default_value="false">
           <list id="get_properties">
               <record get_property="section" test_mode="equal" value="PprC" skip_if_null="false"/>
           </list>
           <integer id="set_property" value="Shwn"/>
       </attachment>
   </widget>


   <widget class="picture" file="boxes/overlay/70/70" scale_picture="true">
       <boolean id="keep_aspect_ratio" value="false" />
   </widget>

</container>

 

and reload the skin. the press room will be the old room press…

 

Thank you flut…
