Thought as much.

This year, there's been a substantial change to how Mac FM documents are stored. Previously the files would automatically be generated in the Documents folder here:

Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Documents/Sports Interactive

Now the files will instead appear in the following location:

Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive

By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:

Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ -> ‘Football Manager 2020’

Hope this helps

Can I have a screenshot of the place you've put them in please?

P.S. skin cache tickbox should be unticked.

If you download the full 12.0 megapack, which you can do easily as a premium member, then you'll be fully up-to-date

Have you changed your preferences to this?

Re skins, I don't think any has come out yet, and using FM19 skins in FM20 won't work.

Yep, never had any issues on previous FMs, and don't think I'm doing anything differently.

Not sure what I can glean from a screenshot of a random folder from a logo pack (downloaded from another site, so you're being a bit cheeky asking for help in here, but anyway).

What have you got in your graphics folder? Do you have some packs which are clashing (e.g. separate logo packs)? And can I have a screenshot of your preferences in-game too? You'd be amazed at the amount of people over the years who have been adamant they've sorted them but actually hadn't

Also, try changing the skin to force the cache to reload and maybe display the graphics.

I have no idea what I was doing wrong. I had all my packs from last year plus this years new kits but with the dark FM skin and graphics wouldn't work, change it to standard FM skin and it worked? Crazy. Thanks for this though mate, reverted back to dark skin and all working! Thanks for the help as always!!

Can I have screenshots of where you've put the files you've downloaded and what these are? Including also of the preferences please

That is a licensing issue, resolved by using this file

I just had the same problem, the problem for me was that clearing the cache diden't update the skins.
So i changed the skin of the game to Dark mode, that updated all my skins! And now all the skins i downloaded is working... Wierd.

Has any seen the panic on Twitter regarding logo, face and graphic packs? Sounds like some licensing people are now trying to stop this going into FM. Other FM sites have had to take their packs down. Hope it isn't an issue here.
