This mod speeds up the UI of Football Manager 26 so that transitions between screens are much faster.
Thanks for the support so far! Below you will find a detailed installation guide for both Windows and macOS users.
You also now create your own version of this file using the Speedster Tool made by @Footygamer
Installation Instructions
(1) Download the file
- ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle
(2) Go to the following location:
Windows Steam
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64
Windows Epic Games:
C:\Program Files\Epic Games\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64
Mac Steam
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX
If that doesn't work you can try this, which somebody else has provided but I haven't confirmed as correct
~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm_Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSXUniversal
Mac Epic Games
~/Library/Application Support/Epic/Football Manager 26/fm_Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSXUniversal
Mac Tip
On Mac Open Finder and click “Go” from the menubar and select “Go to Folder” (alternatively press Shift+CMD+G) and then paste in the above path.
It's much easier to find that way.
(3) Backup the original file Important!
- Rename the file named “ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle” to “ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle.backup”
(4) Copy the new file in
- Copy the file called “ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle” that you previously downloaded to the location from (2)
(5) Close Football Manager and open it again

Good stuff!!! But why can it work? What's the theory of it?
Burgi
Amazing work. I don't know if you realize how much you changed thousands of people's enjoyment of the game. True Icon
Faces and menu speed 10 out of 10

I created a tool that lets you build these yourself with any value

are you supposed to create the folders on the way or? because it stops at common for me MacBook
Footygamer
Are you saying your common folder is empty? That's definitely not right

I got this fm app that takes me to the game
Footygamer
Read the instructions it very clearly says how to get there using Go > Go to folder
If you really insist on doing it your way then right click show package contents

Mine no longer launches, it stays stuck on loading… I did follow the instructions on Mac carefully.
GicaHagi
same for me it's empty
adam_thomas
hmm i tried it but then when I go on a player, the panel where attributes should be is just blank
Footygamer
@adam_thomas you'd have to give more info than that for anyone to help you. What values did you choose?
adam_thomas
Values? I literally followed the steps, backed up the old file, downloaded the new one but then no player stats show. Deleted it and went back to the old one and its fine again.
Oreoluwah
Right click on the FM app and click “Show Package Contents”.
Enjoy!!!!
Footygamer
Sorry my mistake I was thinking of the custom tool, not the pre made mod.
Are you on windows or mac?

Anyone got any ideas, when I do this, I load up the game but I can never get past the loading screen before the main menu? Anyone else had this problem and managed to fix it?
ChrisIW
Great, so there's now even more messing about to be able to use FM properly…
Kiscokid
What do we need to do when the game gets patched - reapply? Some clarity would be helpful thanks

If anyone have a problem with finding files location on Mac Epic Games, try look here:
'/Users/Shared/Epic Games/FootballManager26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX'
I also had the blank player's attributes window, but only at the first time after opening it. I just went to another screen, then back to the player's profile - attributes showed up and the problem seems gone
Constant Martinez
Yep, same for me
Phillip92
Have this issue as well. Have anyone found a fix for it.

Rightclick on “FM.app”, then “Open Packages Content”.

Hey, I don't have a Steam file inside the directory below
C:\Program Files (x86)\
If anyone knows how to get around this, that would be greatly appreciated
Footygamer
@HappyFeet1x Right click FM26 in your Steam library, selecting Properties > Local Files > Browse Local Files to figure out where it is in your system
