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.

FLUTSKIN FM24 V 7.0 

Once again, my special thank you to darkside for his help and ideas for this skin version!

 

  • New Panel included (Key Staff and Players, and team stats) as a tab in “team squad” panel
  • New match lineups panel (the 2 panels - lineups and table panels - were restyled entirely - it should be noted that I increased the time length for the lineups panel but if you want to see the second panel - with league and much more information - you should not click on the continue button; only after that second panel you should click on the continue button)

FLUTSKIN FM24 V 8.0  

  • New TV LOGOS SELECTOR (now you can use the TV logo you want during a match; you can use the automatic selection, which automatically assigns the TV Logo of the competition you are playing, or the manual selection. There are more than 50 logos to choose from.
  • New match lineups panel for UEFA Champions League, Europa League and Conference League
  • Some tweaks here and there

 

The major change of this version results from teamwork. I had the idea of a TV logo selector, created it, made many XMLs for use and did the “final” adjustments of the Logos grouping. But Darkside had the great idea of grouping the items and creating the auto-assignment scheme (following his idea). Finally, DazS8 provided tons of great logos, which I added to mine for use in the default version, and are also included in one of the alts provided in the skin pack! Thank you, Darkside and DazS8, my friends!

 

FLUTSKIN FM24 V 9.0  

  • New TV LOGOS included (now there are TV Logos from many more countries around the world)
  • New SCOREBOARDS included (now you have two scoreboards in Premier League style; the Portuguese Betclic League scoreboard and a version in that style but without the Betclic competition logo, so you can use it in any league)
  • All the team colour problems of the scoreboards in v 8.0 are now fixed!
  • In the social/news feed, the news images are now bigger (as requested by anpuerta5)
  • Some tweaks here and there, and bugs fixed

 

FLUTSKIN FM24 V 10.0  

  • “New” Instant Result panel

 

 

IMPORTANT: 
Please, before making requests or asking for something, look at the alts and read the “read me” files (many requests will be avoided if you do so)

 

PLEASE NOTE:

  1. When you report bugs or present requests, please show screenshots showing what you are talking about.

Hi all

Version 7.0 is coming soon. It includes a new panel (in a tab) in the team squad panel, which I presented in my comment of 09 May 2025 19:11:55 It also includes an almost completely new match preview lineups panel (in this “panel”, the teams' lineups are in the first panel, and beyond the league table, there is other information in the second panel. I also included a header with lots of information. Here are the screenshots for the first and the second panels.

 

Looking good, my friend !

any idea why the logo has started appearing since the latest version, never had the problem before, and any idea how to remove it.

 

what logo(s) do you use ? I'm curious too about this problem, because it was normal when using the v4 skin, but start from v5 the problem came up

Well, I could know when that bug is displayed: when you play without the kits prepared for flutskin (or if the tema doesn't have that kit). However, I don't know why it happens. In spite of that, I believe I could managed it chnaging in a few panels, the kit for the badge. It will be in that way in the next version of the skin.

In the meantime, I tried another approach to the match lineups panel for the all UEFA leagues. Now, The match lineups panels of the UEFA leagues (Champions, Conference and Europa) are on one panel with tabs and proceeding only when we click on continue button. I believe that is the first time we can look at the Champions/Europa/Conference league table during the match lineups panel 🙂 What do you thin about it (this example is for CL, but is the same for other UEFA leagues)?

In der Zwischenzeit habe ich einen anderen Ansatz für das Spielaufstellungspanel für alle UEFA-Ligen ausprobiert. Jetzt befinden sich die Spielaufstellungsfelder der UEFA-Ligen (Champions, Conference und Europa) in einem Panel mit Registerkarten und werden nur fortgesetzt, wenn wir auf die Schaltfläche "Weiter" klicken. Ich glaube, das ist das erste Mal, dass wir uns die Champions/Europa/Conference-Ligatabelle während des Spielaufstellungspanels 🙂 ansehen können. Was hältst du davon (dieses Beispiel ist für CL, aber das gilt auch für andere UEFA-Ligen)?

 

 

 

It looks great!

Isn't the logo meant to be there? I think it looks pretty cool with the logos showing.

Hey guys, I have a question. Why it is not possible or is it maybe possible to assign more tv logos for more leagues or competitions?

Actually you can use 7 different tv logos if you want (EFL Cup, Bundesliga, Champions League, Europa League, Conference League, Super Cup and the “normal” logo for all others), if you change the match title bar in the separate folders.

So is it possible to create more folders with the right match title bar inside where you can change the tv logo that you can assign every single league or competiton a tv logo if you want this.

I hope you know what I mean 🙂

Thanks luffy, KI5, Bielsa, evoking, marck and Darkside!! 😊

 

Hablo: please read the read me files, namely Read me 9 - Adjusting the match title bar.pdf. I explain how you can fix that. However you always can proceed the game – just press tab

 

KI5: the problem is that by contrast to the licensed leagues, the game doesn’t read other special folders. Thus, if we create other match titlebar.xml with other logos you have to replace the “normal” titlebar with that. That is almost the same as we can do now, changing the name of the TV Logo (the graphic we want use or the code name in the match titlebar.xml) in normal match titlebar.

Hi.

Thanks.

Regarding your question, the xml is the team squad.xml. However, that xml “call” many other xmls in order to display all the stuff in that panel. You can find all the other xmls searching for file=" in the team squad.xml

Hi all

 

Now (for the next version), the skin will have a TV Logo selector. We can choose the TV logo we want to display in a match in-game.

My challenge for you is to place here the PNG of the TV Logo you want to include in the options to choose. You should place two pictures here—the normal logo and the @2x logo. 

 

The standard/normal Logo should have 25 px height, and the @2x should have 50px height. 

Name the logos as you want, but use the same main name for both (for example, sky.png and [email protected]).

Please place a png with quality and keeping the aspect ratio.

Do you accept this challenge?

Thanks!!

Could have helped you with this mate as I already have a working 8 choice tv logo selector & a large selection of tv logos
Looking forward to seeing how you have it set up, looks like you have drop down version as selector, a great addition.

I put a button in titlebar as selector but your version is probably a better choice.
