Dear all

This is FLUTSKIN version 6.0 for FM22!!

Ten years (!!!!) after start editing the Flutskin I would like to give a great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still editing the skin and gave me new ideas!!!

A special thank you to all of players who decided to distinguish my work with a donation!! Although just a small part of FM Players who use the skin made a donation (I edited the skin as a hobby and, as you know, completely free), I always feel honoured and happy when people recognize the work done and decide to contribute. So, I reinforce, I have to give a special thank you to that friends of FlutsKin!!!!!!

Also a thank you to all the skin makers who indirectly contribute to my work, and a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin), to MICHAEL MURRAY since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work, to QVORDRUP, for the metallic “Round country flags” and his great collaboration in the “country locator maps”, to NUNO KOPIO for the “Square shiny flags” I included as alt files (for using as an alternative to the “Round country flags”) and to DAZS8 for his great work in the addons for Flutskin.

This FLUTSKIN for FM22 is almost equal to the last version of Flutskin for FM21. Therefore, you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present them here. I suggest you to see with your eyes all the changes!!

 

Main changes in 6.0 of FLUTSKIN:
- Home panel (individual match analysis included)
- Player popup panel (information about media handling style and personality included)
- Player profile panel (drop down arrow with two profile styles included; profile 1 as it was in version 5.0; profile 2 with the front and back kits instead of the attributes analyser)

 

The pack includes many alt files for customize the skin (please read the read me file included in the pack) and several tutorials: 1) how should be the configs for the stadiums packs; 2) how can you adjust the size and the place of the kit number in player overview panel; 3) how can you do the 2D kits adapted for Flutskin. BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE ALT FOLDERS AND ALSO AT THE READ ME AND TUTORIAL FILES!!

THE SKIN IS TOTALLY COMPATIBLE WITH 1920x1080 SCREEN RESOLUTION AND 4k (windows display settings 200%; game 100%).
YOU SHOULD USE IT IN FULL WINDOWS, ICONS ONLY

 

Important note regarding TV LOGOS:
Although the default tv logo is the one I use, of course you can easily change it; for that you just have to go to skin/graphics/icons/tv logos. In that folder there is a alt folder with many TV logos. You just have to replace the tv logo.png and the tv [email protected] for that one you want. Of course you should rename the new logos as tv logo and tv logo@2x. You also can use other logos made by you. The procedure to use them is exactly the same. However, I should remember that yo should use logos with the right height. For tv logo you should use 25px and for the @2x you should use 50px.

 

Important note regarding kit number and name in the player overview panel:

Since many people asked about the adjustments in the number and name in the kits (in player overview panel), and also since I already answered that many many times, I decided to make my “job” easier, avoiding answering that question again, and again and again 🙂.

Thus I did a tutorial which is included in the skin pack.


Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions.

 

[b]How to add Flut Skin in FM22[/b]
Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

Place the "fm2022flutskin_dark" folder here: 
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\skins

[*] Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
[*] Start FM22 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
[*] You should see FM 2021 Flut Skin dark - 5.0 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.

Here you go pal. First one is full screen 1920 x 1080 and zoomed out to 85%.

The second one is the same resolution but standard 100% (my eyes aren’t as good as they used to be!). As you can see the numbers are all a mess. I suppose personally I would just prefer perhaps club and country badges to the right, with picture like I have of stadium in the background.

The image in red is almost okay.

The other one is not good.

I didn't understand exactly what do you want to change. Could you please explain a little bit more? thanks?

Hi

Regarding club kits, as you can see in the titlebar (where is the PSG kit) everything is okay. For the box with the kits the "D kits are not required. For that you should have the normal 2D kit packs.

Regarding the key emploees and other boxes that don't fit well, the “problem” is your screen resolution. As I say in the skin presentation this skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions.

Could there be an add-on that can remove the 2d kit from the player display page (like you have done other little ad-ons to personalise other stuff). 

If it was player face with club badge to the right (as it appears now) and with no 2d kit display, that would be ideal for me. 

 

Does that clarify it? 

 

Best wishes

I can tell you how you can delete the kits but first please tell me what is the option in the player profile you use.

I apologise, I am not sure what you mean? The only thing I change from your mod is the team colour side bar addition. I am not aware of altering anything else ……….

If I flip it to the player attributes page, the kits aren't displayed but the club badge is missing a bit to the left and there is an England flag partially covering another England logo (as shown). I usually just have the player's page set to profile, if that is what you meant?

 

This is on the reduced (85%) setting.

If you use the recommended resolution, is weird. Maybe your windows display settings are not in 100%….I really don't know because in 1920x1080, 100% Zoom and 100% windows display settings should work well.

Regarding TV logo, please read my “Important note regarding TV Logos”. There I explain how can you change the TV logos (and where is the alts folder referred by Charlston, which contains the logos you want)

If I understood well, you want remove the kits on the right of player picture. There are different options for that boxes (you can choose in the drop down arrow - for example “profile flut stadium”, “profile flut card”, etc). In order I tell you what you should do for remove those kits I need to know what is the option you use.

I am back away from my computer until tomorrow now, so I will check then. Where do I find this information? I added your file to the skin folder in my directory and the only thing I altered was the club coloured side bar option. 
The rest I use whatever is in the default folder.

 

However in essence you are right. I just wish to stop using the 2d kit viewing option on the right of the player face pic.

 

Cheers

Quick question for Flut (Or anyone else who might know the answer).

 

Many years ago when I used to play this game it only ever had the flashing commentary bar to ‘watch’ during a match. Back then I'd download stadium packs & on match days I'd get to see the stadium we were playing in as the matchday background (So for example if I was managing Liverpool & I was playing at home against Southampton I'd see Anfield as the background when the match was underway. The following week I'd be away at Manchester United & I'd see Old Trafford as the background etc…)

 

With these newer versions of the game we have all this ‘3D match engine’ etc… So even when I've downloaded the stadium packs (Which work on most other screens) And even when I set my matchday to be ‘commentary only’ and have all highlights & replays switched off, I just see a boring, bland, computer generated stadium/pitch as the matchday background. Is there anyway this can be changed so as to show the stadiums like in the past?

I have managed to get the font of player name and squad number correct. I think it was to do with the size I had on laptop display (125%) . I reduced it to 100% and it looks fine. Still have the issue when I select attributes from dropdown on the player profile and there is the issue with the overlapping flags in the top right corner. I think you said that will be fixed in the next update though.

 

Many thanks.

Hi Nobby

I really don't know. However I remember that last year there was a guy in https://community.sigames.com/forums/forum/18-skinning-hideout/ who did a mod to see the real stadium picture instead that one generated by the game. Try to find the thread there.

Hi

There is no problems regarding what you describe. However I talked about the resolution and settings I refer in the skin presentation. Thus, unfortunately, I believe that in your resolution that problems will arise again….

Thanks for the reply. I really don’t know my way around these type of things but as I said it all seems to be a better layout post me altering the  screen size from my start menu.

Here you have it

 

For that competition logos will be displayed you should make a copy of your normal competitions logos (twice) and in one folder the config should be (this is an example of a code line)

 

<record from="100" to="graphics/pictures/comp/100/logo/background/right"/>

 

and on the other should be

 

<record from="100" to="graphics/pictures/comp/100/logo/background/left"/>
