Hi @Tiny Hips
can we get a MacOS version ?
Tiny Hips
Working on that asap, as I'm unsure what causes the crashes we see with other skins on MacOS.
Tiny Hips
Done.
fendR
This is fantastic. I can't seem to get the background to change though. Any suggestions?

@Tiny Hips firstly, thank you for providing your skin and tutorial to the community of FM.
Secondly, there is any chance of you adding or teach how to modify the attribute colors? I know there is a tool to do that, but it only chances 3, not all 4 of them.
Cheers.
Tiny Hips
I'm unsure. I haven't changed any of the licensed leagues if this is the problem?

@Tiny Hips great skin. Is it possible you added a file with de DF11 default faces so that the one who like them they can put them in the game?
The DF11 faces can you find here:
Men: df11faces.com/post/df11-default-faces
Women: df11faces.com/post/default-faces-women-s-edition
Tiny Hips
@Copywriter I'm unsure what you mean. If you want me to add them to the skin - this is something that I am not going to do. This would âstepâ on other peoples toes and use their work without permission. Big fan of DF11 and I'm waiting for their pure DF11 Men's face pack to come out though! I would also recommend downloading from them to get the most up-to-date packs (also they provide torrent files which download much faster).
If you are asking if this skin works with them - yes! I was a big fan of @FMRensie in previous games, hence where this skins' inspiration has come from.
Copywriter
@Tiny Hips i am working since years on the DF11 project en know the owner well. And use the DF11 faces from the start.
Unfortunely am i not a skinner so i cant replace the default faces myself. Untill FM24 was it possible to replace them in the Flut skin which i used.
Tiny Hips
I'm able to use face packs in this game as usual. Is this something you're unable to do?
Copywriter
Yes i am using facepacks, logo's and kits thats not a problem.
The only thing what me disturbes is that i can't replace the default faces .
Tiny Hips
Ah I understand. I don't have plans to do this at the moment as I have never done this on previous games.

The screens with the removed âstripe rowsâ look much much better. I would probably keep some colours as they were, for example, within the training schedules - that looks a little bit flat when it's all in one colour. But that's probably about getting used to it.
Tiny Hips
I will likely change training colours when they actually fix training, but I do agree!

Everything is fine, but you can't edit the manager on Mac.
Tiny Hips
How come?
kwiatek23
Everything is fine, it works

Puedes agregarle la cara del jugador en los partidos cuando haga un gol?
ArtjomBavaria
Is there a way to show our manager on the menu screen and not just black? I love this skin, but that's the only thing I would like to change for me.
Tiny Hips
If you want to keep the original home screen, do not install the ui-mainmenu .bundle file

Can you add the players' faces when they score a goal during the match?
