All looks fine. Perhaps @Qvordrup can assist further. Have you changed the preferences to allow background pics to be displayed? Or do you need a specific skin to see them perhaps? Can't remember...


yes all the right boxes are ticked and im using it with the same skin as i have successfully used it before it was fine until the last update then it wouldn't display in the game after that so i have tried everything since even re-downloading the full pack and starting again

First of all big thx for hard work! Pls make torrent ASAP because the third day in a raw i can't download the complete file no matter what i use chrome or firefox.2 times after almost 4 hours download just failed and my internet is a very good one. And more then 10 times download broke almost immediately around 3 gb from start. This sole pack is the main reason to buy premium membership again! And so far zero....

I also find I am unable to download the entire file. I get a few GB in and then Chrome spits out an error saying 'failed - forbidden'.

Can you give us a screenshot of it please? Usually when Chrome stops a download, you should be able to resume it.

I would like to say to everybody please have some patience with this relative new project. I personally think that the project with some adjustment will be great. We aim to make a pack where all backgrounds a collected in one. But the pack has become huge.... hence the problems with downloading. So we are aware of the problems and are working on making the download more manageable and adding a torrent. When the basics of downloading is in place, and working, there will also be a process where we have to finetune the request system and the browsing system and last but not least make it possible to have stadiums_backgrunds as team backgrounds as was the case before we started the process of including more types of backgrounds to the pack (some sort of alternative config).

That's a text file πŸ˜•

Can you not take a screenshot with Snipping Tool and upload it as an attachment or imgur?

@Qvordup, if what I post in here is a load of bollocks, feel free to call me out - no offence taken πŸ˜€

I agree, i loved this pack last year, it adds so much to the game particularly if you're managing in the lower leagues in a country you've not seen before. I managed in Bulgaria last year, and some of the places looked lovely! I'm trying the download again just now, using firefox and getting the forbidden error a few others have reported but will persevere. Worst case i'll wait for the torrent, as the skin I use to be compatible with the backgrounds likely wont be ready till the full release anyway πŸ™‚ Just wanted to say thanks for the hard work you're all putting in!

Not really bollocks.... But we are aware of the fact that the full download is not working, and footygamer is working on a complete revamp of the download and a torrent. So rather than asking for screenshot or any other explanation, the best answer right now is to be patience πŸ™‚ we are working on it πŸ™‚

I've downloaded the full package file by file as when I try to to download the full package is happening what lots of guys are complaining. And even with chrome it stops, gives back a "Failed - Forbidden" error and the option to resume is not enabled (check attachment).

Also noticed that the 21.00 file only has 270MB though in your link is written that it's supposed to have 1.32GIB (check other attachment). You might have here your issue, maybe even with the config.xml as someone posted before.

Then I'm having the same issue as clarkiebaby that even having the files on the structure of the game, they don't load using the usual process to reload skins and graphics. I'm inclined to agree to whoever said it can be the the config.xml file.

By the way, does anybody knows for sure if we're supposed to see any of this background images with the FM21 Default Skin? Just so we're not chasing tales here.

Please post any technical problems here

I've edited the thread title to make it more evident that we're currently have some issues.

Everybody just bear with us while they are fixed and you are able to download this file again. Keep in mind that it's a massively huge file and so it will take a while to sort out mirrors etc πŸ‘

I'm using the FM20 version of this file on FM21 and I can see them just fine.

As for the rest, we know there are issues with downloading this file which we're doing our utmost to resolve and allow the community to enjoy the file. Just bear with us πŸ™‚

As per the text in caps in the title, this is a known issue and being worked on. We want to get this file to you as much as you want to download it, and it'll be sooner rather than later hopefully. Just a bit of patience please πŸ™‚
