This is not something we can currently do.

I'm using the super speed mod, had to re-install the game after using this skin. I loved the work you did but how I can I make it work? The game is slow without the speed mod.
Tiny Hips
For use with the super speed mod, do not install ui-match_assets_all.bundle.
Michael Kristiansen
The game looks like this after I copied everything else than that bundle..
Tiny Hips
There are no changes to team shirt icons or bib icons in the bundle files.
Michael Kristiansen
The game crashed again anyways.. Can't make it work. Thanks anywas. Going back to the previously downloaded skin without issues.

I downloaded the 12 files, unzipped them and placed them in the folder as instructed. It replaced the existing files. But when I update and start the game, there are no changes.
Tiny Hips
Because you have updated the game. Updating the game AFTER installing the mod will replace any ui-styles_.bundles you have installed. You must install any mod after updates/game installation.

I installed the skin, it is a good one; thank you.
However, when I try to change att. colors via https://sortitoutsi.net/tools/attribute-colors the start screen had some problems and I could not start the game.
Is there any way to change att. colors with this theme?
I am a basic man; I try to set up;
1–5
#606060
11–15
#00FF00
16–20
#FF0000

Ciao premetto che la tua skin e favolosa ma come mai nella partita mi visualizza le maglie 3d nella schermata home dello spogliatoio appese non si vedono ma sono nere ?
Tiny Hips
If you are having problems on the start screen, avoid installing the ui-mainmenu file.
Sadly, I can't do a lot about Attribute colours as they also affect other texts when changed, so can cause colour-clashes in some cases.
Tiny Hips
If you want to return to the previous FM26 main menu, do not install the ui-mainmenu file.

Ok grazie mille

I did not install the mentioned file but not worked.
Anyway, I am too old to handle all of this. It is just a game afterall. I should not try to fix the game as a player but I am trying to fix the game with unofficial ways (skin, attribute colors, speed booster etc.). Your job is perfect, thank you. However, game is not playable.

The update doesn't work on my Mac because there's a black square on the main screen and I can't launch the game
Tiny Hips
I have tested this personally on Mac and works without any errors.

It's ok, I'll get back to you if anything happens

Hi there,
When I use this skin, I keep seeing this error, “Application Error: A serious error was encountered and the application will now close. An error report will be uploaded to the developers for analysis.“ (see attached)
what’s going on?
Tiny Hips
Sadly, crashes happen with or without skins.
Omo Jnr
Thanks for responding - to clarify are you saying this is happening to everyone - windows or mac?
Tiny Hips
FM26 crashes quite a lot - despite what platform you are on. Appears like the frequency is different depending on your hardware - this is not linked to skins.
lashley
Needs updated, causing constant crashes when I check player stats when it was perfect before
Tiny Hips
Have you updated to the 26.1.1 hotfix?

This is great. I'm on Mac and it took me a couple of times to get it right, as I think there might be a slight mistake in the list of files it replaces. But in the end, I made a copy of my entire StandaloneOSX folder, stuck it on my desktop for safe keeping, and then just copied all the files and replaced. It has worked perfectly. Previously, I had gone through each of the listed bundles, and put .backup after them before pasting the files. I think it meant that one was changed to .backup that shouldn't have been. Anyway, all working well now!
