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!

Thanks for the reply. I restored all the default files, but that menu still isn't working. All the other skins function normally.

Windows,I didn't encounter this issue with any other skins, so I'm not sure why it happened. As a last resort, I used the match file from a different skin in combination with the other files from yours, and now the game is working normally.
