The Material Skin is ready for you again this year!
It's based on the colors of the skin created for previous editions of the game, with the addition of a couple of custom backgrounds. For now, this version is based on the game still in beta, so there may be structural issues unrelated to the skin.
I hope you like it, and if you'd like to support my work, I'd be very grateful. 🙂
If you'd like information on how to change any colors, DM me and I'll try to help you as much as I can. 🙂
Cheers
To use the default attribute colors go to preferences -> details -> audio and video and choose preset 3 on "player attributes"
Thanks to Darkside for the default skin and to all the other mods for their contributions to the community!

Yes, I’ve downloaded the skin several times, the last time about an hour ago.
It keeps giving me that crash issue when I open a player’s profile.
I haven’t checked other screens to see whether they work or not.
If needed, I can run a quick check.

I upload now a new version, because yesterday i do some test with a guy and was ok..can you download it the new version and test if it's ok?
AL3
Thank you! I downloaded the latest version (the one from 17:43) and now it works perfectly!
Thanks again, and congratulations on the excellent work!

Brilliant skin, fantastic work. No biggie is there anyway to see attendances in matches?
xvasiliyx
The skin is very beautiful and useful; I like almost everything about it! Thank you so much for the work you've done.
I'd like to know if there's any way to make the height display panel available by default, instead of the octagon. If so, how can this be done? Thank you in advance.
budwaiser4
I don't know if it's possible sincererly
budwaiser4
I must check, but i think yes
Alvaro Scarafia

budwaiser4
Have you try to restore the original files and replace again the files of skin? However i'll check it
deeennis19
Hey guys,
does anyone know how I can get the original files back so I can reinstall the skin? Thanks in advance and especially thanks for the fantastic work!

Repair/verify your game installation…
deeennis19
Thank you so much for the quick help! Do you mean checking the game data for errors? What exactly will be lost in the process? Will I have to re-add all my mods? Probably the ones that are directly in the installation directory, right? The editor data will remain intact?
I Am Legend
idk if this really happen by verify/repair games, but once, I need to reinstall ‘real name fixes’ again

v2.0.1
- Fixed everything after hotfix

Nicolas Sebastiani
Does this skin have low res support? If not do you plan on giving low res support?
budwaiser4
Hi, It's not entirely low-res but in my opinion many panels could look good even on small screens
Alvaro Scarafia
i tried but not work , now i will try the last update and tell you

You are and absolute legend and this is the best skin for FM26. Unfortunately v2.0.1 is not working properly on Mac. It crashes the game when you confirm your team to go to a match. Never had any crashes before and I have been using various versions of the skin in the last 2 months. I have restored back to original skin and problem solved. Don't know how to help you and not sure if happens to everybody on Mac. Thank you for your amazing work
Alvaro Scarafia
bro its fixed the problem with the last uptdate, you are a GOD.
xvasiliyx

Jude Michaels

The latest skin update crashes the game when you try to load a players profile. Also on Mac
budwaiser4
Hi guys i'm checking why no works in mac, really apologize trying to fix asap
For Windows player i check personally and it works perfectly to me so try this:
On Steam, right-clicking on the game -> properties -> installed files -> and clicking the "verify integrity of game files" button. This will restore all the original game files. After that, re-insert the skin files and any other mods you used, such as no-fake
Jude Michaels
It worked!!.. apparently I had to update the files in the game..Thanks!..I will update if anything else comes up!..✅
budwaiser4
For MAC users i release a new version, let me know if now works, download the skin again to test and restore your original files before to insert it

Your skin is gorgeous, I love your colors. I find the section dedicated to news too small and poorly placed, but that's just a personal preference.
