FM 2020 FLUT skin dark - Version 2.2

Skin for FM 2020 regular career mode and widescreen (1920x1080).

This is the FLUT Skin ("dark" version) for FM20. As usual, the Flut skin is completely full of changes when you compare with the default skin.

For many years I keep trying to edit a skin who can help FM Fans to better enjoy our game.
With the direct or indirect help of many FM players and FM skinners (thank you all) I created many stuff (such as the citypics, the rotating images of stadiums in club overview panel or the back and front kits displayed in player overview panel, just to mention some of the ones I consider most relevant).

Therefore, now, in FLUT Skin you can find the instant result option, the background/opacity selector, compatibility of player picture (in player overview panel) with DF11 and Scope facepacks styles, the animated intro match, front and back kits displaying in player overview panel, compatibilty with citypics and much…much more!!!

And now you can personalize FlutSkin more than ever!!
I included 14 alt folders in this pack. You just need to read the read me file in order to know how you can use them:
1. Alt. for sidebar - alt FM20 FlutSkin sidebar matching club colour (works only with the no hidden sidebar)
This folder is for those who want to use a coloured sidebar according each club colour.
2. Seven alts. for club overview panel - club overview alt1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
Seven different layout for the club overview panel
3. Alt. for player overview panel layout - player overview alt - flutskin 18
Files for return to the player overview layout I used in FlusSkin 1.8
4. Alt for attributes panel - alt for player overview without background boxes as default and for player profile and player popup without background boxes
Contain files for those who prefer playing with player attributes panel without background boxes
5. Alt for player overview panel without CA and PA values
6. Skin without background pictures
An alt client object browser.xml file for those who prefer playing the game with a solid background instead of pictures backgrounds (stadiums, cities, players, etc)
7. Alts for No Hidden Sidebar (the default sidebar) - for light and dark skin
8. Alt for playing with the tactics panel as in the 2.1 version (only displaying the back kit)


The Skin pack also includes:
1. “Round country flags”, “round continents logos” and default logos specially made in metallic style by @Qvordrup from sourtitoutsi. Those graphics will be displayed in the title bar.
2. Background maps for confederations, also made by @Qvordrup . Thank you @Qvordrup by your great work and for your collaboration!!!

You can download the 2D packs prepared for Flutskin (titlebar and player overview panel) here in sourtitoutsi. HERE
However, if you prefer edit your own kits, I also included in the pack a .pdf file explaining how you can edit the kits for Flutskin.

The logos in country locators are now updated by @Qvordrup according the last version of metallic logos.

You also can download the stadiums megapack and the citypics released by @DazS8 (thank you, my friend) HERE and HERE

And @geordie1981 has made a pack for inside "small" stadiums HERE

As always FlutSkin is completely free[/b] to download and I hope you enjoy it. However, if you want, you can reward my work donating whatever amount you wish. Any small amount is really appreciated.

You can do so by clicking the button down below:



Main changes in 2.2 version
- Tactics overview panel (front kits included; position colours changed)
- Instant result in match included
- Text font
- Hidden sidebar
- New alts.
- Tweaks here and there

Once again I would like to thank you to all FM Fans who support my work and also to all skin makers. A special thank you to PATRES10 from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin).

Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).

How to add Flut Skin in FM20
Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2020flutskin_dark" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\skins


  • Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
  • Start FM20 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
  • You should see FM 2020 Flut Skin dark - Version 2.2 as an option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
  • Hit the Confirm button.



  • Please note this skin is provided as is. It has nothing to do with Sports Interactive or SEGA and won't be supported by them.

    Love the skin thanks as always for creating it.

    One question, I have stadiums and citypics and the large background flags but when I click on a player I would like to see the background for the national flag (not the stadium pic) as it's easier to see.
    I've no idea how to do this, could someone help please as it seems the stadium pics take priority over the flags when you click them for their background.

    The flag pics show fine on staff of international teams just not on club players etc

    Hi Markus: in fact, as I supposed already said, the skin slow down some panels (namely the news panel). I don’t know what are the files responsible for that bug. However, it happens only in a few panels and that problem don’t make the skin not playable.

    Hi fascinoso: for all stadiums work well you need to have the packs and look if you have three different packs (although one of them, if you want, with the same pictures of one of the others) each one with different kind of configs. Here is below the type of code you should find in the configs (is just an example):
    1. (with the ID of the club)
    <record from="2082082528" to="graphics/pictures/team/2082082528/background"/>
    2. (with ID of the stadium)
    <record from="98040206" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/98040206/stadium"/>
    3. (with Id of the stadium)
    <record from="98040206" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/98040206/background"/>

    If you conclude that one is missing, you can duplicate one of the stadiums folder and change the config.

    I have just downloaded this skin and have started a new game. Most of the panels on the player screen are saying 'Biography' - do I have to manually change these all?

    Also, how do I get the front and back of the official shirts with name and numbering to display next to the player's face?

    Hi fascinoso: I believe you already have that pack since it is included in the DAZS8 packs (the config should be something like
    (with the ID of the club)
    <record from="2082082528" to="graphics/pictures/team/2082082528/background"/>

    Don't forget that the game read the folder alphabetically. Thus if you want to test, rename that folder with a name such as aaaaaaaaaastadiums.

    Hi Fascinoso: no I don't intend to do any pack of backgrounds. But you are able to do it, of course.
    1. download the Notepad++ and install it
    2. analyse your packs of background stadiums: open the config of that folders and look if you have codes similar to the following
    (with the ID of the club)
    <record from="2082082528" to="graphics/pictures/team/2082082528/background"/>
    (with ID of the stadium)
    <record from="98040206" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/98040206/stadium"/>
    . (with Id of the stadium)
    <record from="98040206" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/98040206/background"/>

    3. If you notice that there is one type of config missing (for instance that one using the stadium ID and stadium) you should duplicate the folder that contains that config with the stadiums ID
    4. open the new folder and open the config with notepad++
    5. go to menu search and choose the submenu replace
    6. in the popup window in "find what?", write: /background
    7. in "replace with" write /stadium
    8. Choose "replace all"
    9. Save the config
    10. that's it

    I play with a Custom USA competition and I dont see throphies that I've won at the Club info page.
    Also I was wondering when you use worldwide CL the ranking of clubs in competition have no colours,
    Normally the number 2 till 5 should have blue to be able to play CL but I dont see the colours, maybe you can make a option for it in the skin

    Extract the download with Winrar and place the skin in Documents / Sports Interactive / Football Manager 2020 / skins, then change the skin in the preferences in-game

    Hi,
    thanks for this great skin, playing with it since 2016.
    I think there's a bug with the player improvement tab. Nothing appears there. Works with the light skin.

    Unbelievable how much I have been loving your skins for the last couple of years. Thanks for your creativity and hard work. It helps me enhancing my gameplay experience significantly!

    I do have one question though. I have downloaded the stadium pack and it works fine. The only thing is that the stadium picture being displayed rotates to a default picture every couple of seconds. And when I go to the stadium profile it shows me the default picture but also the stadium from the stadium pack. How can I remove that default picture?https://ibb.co/qxR8GVDhttps://ibb.co/PCy6mTchttps://ibb.co/K5580vc

    Hi Flut,

    This skin and the real name fix do not conflict at all; the files affected are completely different and they can be both used at the same time without any problems. If you're not getting the real names of the German national team, make sure you have the real name fix installed properly.
