Thanks

There's two stages to do this. You first need to edit the data to reflect the changes you want and secondly you have to change the kit colours in-game.

To fulfill stage a, download this file. I have used to editor to swap around the first and away kits and text colour, which will now see Cardiff's home kit and colour become blue and the away become red. Place this file in Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2013 > editor data. The last file needs to be created if it is not already there. Please note that this change will only work for new saves and not for existing save games.

For stage b, download the 3D kitpack for the Championship from here and swap the filenames of the Cardiff kits accordingly. This change will see Cardiff play in a blue kit by default and use red as the second, away kit. This change will work for existing save-games, happily, and does not need a new game to be started.

Hope this helps.

Could you give me a screenshot of the kit(s) which isn't/aren't changing? I'm not sure which they are.

To change the colour in the manager home page, load the editor, load the database then load the editor data file which I sent earlier. Navigate to the Cardiff home kit and modify the second colour of the text from yellow to white. Save it and start a new game.

sorry i think ive got confused, the 3d kit pack will only work in the match right ? What i was asking first is you know on the home team page where is shows the 3 kits for the club, wether i could just swap the home and away round so it shows the blue kit as home and red away using the same kit syle already in fm ?

I think I've understood what you're talking about. I don't know how to change them but you can replace them with the SS kits which are available here. Keep in mind that this is merely a cosmetic change which will only affect the kits displayed in the club information screen and the match overview page. To change the kits displayed during the match, you need to download the 3D kits.

You can have both the SS kits and the 3D kits in place at the same time as they can be run concurrently. Just make sure you have them in separate folders anywhere within the Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2013 > graphics path

I just checked and it seems like you're in luck. The Standard Kits do just that Extract this file using winrar and place it in the folder mentioned earlier.

As a bonus, you can also get the current Premier League kits from this page

Here's the updated cardiff dbc file with the changes you requested. Just replace the previous file which I sent you.

Sorry for the delay but I had to extract them. fix them and upload them.

Glad to have been able to be of assistance

If you haven't yet, I recommend that you visit this page and download the real name fix file (which gives real names to all competitions AND fixes the fact that the German National team doesn't call up real players) as well as the Cut-out Facepack and Metallic Logo pack, which, given that you are a premium member, are both one-click downloads
