I downloaded the zip file, but it shows as an invalid file with only 5 bytes of capacity.

 

I don't have this; try again or via the mirror.

For Abissnet Albania league it would then look like this; got it quickly setup in PS. But I feel this is more about the 2D engine rather than some UI Panel using it?

Definitely a great idea, from the next release i'll follow your fixes, and i'll use a better subfolder structures as you did, everything looks cleaner in this way. 

 

I think I also removed the 4 nations, you could rename the nations folder to leagues and then have a nations folder with those 4. But I didn't think those were necessary for me, that's why they are not in.

 

Let me know, happy to collaborate further. Never made actual ball textures, but would be willing to invest some time into it.

 

I see they also have 2d textures in the official files, is that something we could extend it to as well? Do you know what the config would in the xml would be for those? 17x17px in a 32x32 image. SI tags it as _bc, not sure where it would show up. We could for example map them as 3d ball and 2d ball for all available ones.

 

See below for some examples:

New update! 2026.02 brings a lot of new patches but also a new folder structure and file setup, please delete the previous folders and add the pack again if you experience any issues. Again many thanks to all of you requesting and contributing sleeve patches!

 

Feel free to support me with my hobbies:

There’s a chance you’ll see some black balls during the game, if you use the entire config file but only few of the pictures in the pack.

The best solution is to “clean” the config file and use only the code lines linked to the .png you would like to use.

 

I've also adapted this to my personal folders indeed. Since I for example remove the 3d balls that are officially licensed in the game (e.g. Premier League, Eredivisie) and remove all the lines in the config files where there is no existing PNG in the pack (making balls turn black). Feel free to play around with this, or include it.

 

Included the suggestion above for Coupe de France and Championnat National 1+2 as well as adding ‘3d ball’ at the end of all files to make sure there is no clash with other graphics as this is an issue in FM26.

@mons is there btw also a command for the nickname? Like NICKNAME_CHANGE for example? Every day we learn something, I cannot find an actual good manual on this on how LNC files can be properly edited. Might be worth it to create that at a certain point.

@falsobohemio I hope you have time to work on this file for the Netherlands instead. The Men's structure is incorrect, but this file has the correct mapping. Nobody is owning it at the moment and I'd really appreciate if you would be able to enable it for FM26. It also includes a cup for amateur clubs to qualify for the KNVB Beker and the division of teams into their different geographic areas, meaning you will not play with a club from Friesland against a club from Limburg in an amateur competition league.

i think the sleeves will not work on middle of the chest on 3d kits

 

I think especially the club world cup badges are not that interesting as they are also only visible in the club world cup and not during any other match; aside we indeed end up with clashes on the logos.

 

I do have a experimental version for the Serie A badge in the pack now, but not sure if I continue with that pattern. All clubs that are likely to win the Serie A (Juventus, Milan, Napoli, Roma, Lazio, Inter) have their logos not centered. However Cremonese home kit for example then clash if they become champions.

Club World Cup and Intercontinental Cup

 

The Intercontinental Cup with the football united the world badge sadly blocks sponsor logos on the left sleeve.

 

Will review this, most likely make my own versions to increase quality. Thanks for supplying me this.

I'm going to add 4-5 balls today and then i can finally release the first version, the pack will include also the leagues covered by the game, in case someone that still plays FM24 would like to use them

 

Thanks mate, impressive work as always!

great work @wfm18. do you know if you will expand the standard kits to include english lower leagues?

 

English leagues will be in, I already have one in the upcoming update. Waiting for LaLiga to be completed before I upload the next version, but it will include a ton of kits.

Not sure if we have AI people here, would be cool to train our own model.

 

No clue how to do that though, plus it probably costs a ton of money

I'm on the FM Slovakia team, specifically in the group that plays in the Spanish leagues and lower divisions. But I could alternate if there are three of us, as you say, and mix 2D and 3D.

 

Oooh so good! I hope aside from FC12 style your teams also create the 3D kits together with them. 3D as a foundation for a lot of 2D styles would be my dream, then having them all added to the submission system here WITH some way we can automate color fixes (.fmf, CC @Footygamer @BabaYaga89) we really create everything as one big community.

I saw you made some First Division kits, improving on other 3D kits that are already out there. Do you plan to make more? Or are you going straight to Second Division?

 

I just do a couple random ones really. Hope someone can help assist with the top league. @priority76 also might join in, with the 3 of us we could get that league out quickly I feel. 

 

@Selleck87 unfortunately dropped out, but he had Barcelona and Villarreal home. I think we should just recreate those ourselves as we cannot get his kits into the submission system due to exclusivity anyway.

The problem is not sharing. The problem is that since my website clearly states on the megapack ‘IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO SHARE THE MEGAPACK ON OTHER WEBSITES, FORUMS OR CHANNELS WITHOUT MY PERMISSION’, it is only right to ask the person concerned for permission to do so first. And I have never given permission. It seems simple to me. So I repeat: kindly delete my work, as I do not like this way of doing things.

 

And aside; people make mistakes right? We've already corrected it, they were up for less than 48 hours, they are not in any megapack download as they were only in the submission system yet. I’ll do my best to keep your files away from the upload system in the future.

Why is problem to share kits?

 

I work on Actionstyle pack pictures for months. I made more than 10000+ pictures, i share iz free. it's just a game, not job. Be man, and help people

 

Yeah, I've accidentally added them to the submission system. So my fault. Did not expect the backlash of also being completely banned on @Selleck87's site. I had no intention to cause this big of an upset. So they are all taken offline now, but the ban is still there for me. I explained in private chat but will do it here as well that we cannot block users from uploading his 'work', but we can govern that of course. This means we will take that into account in future uploads, so nobody can post this work and these files then will be rejected and removed.

 

This is however a bad situation for the community and I feel a very negative influence. I mean we're here together, to create something for the community. I've seen other 3D kit creators also being very strict on the usage of their assets, how it can be shared etc. Sortitoutsi is basically the place to go to for 3D work, but also misses a lot of content due to this ‘exclusiveness’. 
 

For some creators it’s about monetizing this. I'm creating them on the side while working for a good salary, so I really do this just as a hobby. Maybe that also means we have to adopt a structure where creators are being paid for their work based on subscriptions or downloads (Spotify model), although I don't want to be part of that. For me, mods are free of charge always. It’s becoming more of a standard in the community nowadays and I hate it.

 

I wish we all would just collaborate instead of being enemies, create one big perfect 3D megapack that can feed into 2D Standard and 2D SS/FC12 styles via the kit creator project. The submission system that @Footygamer and others introduced is a perfect step into the right direction where we make things both super convenient for the end-user as well as collecting the best kits out there together and having people work on more separate kits rather than 6 versions of Real Madrid home for example. Exclusivity kills that.

 

I kinda feel demotivated because of this. I've been uploading a lot to @Selleck87's site just to help him out with LaLiga kits, being friendly, helpful. We just need better LaLiga kits than the conversions we have today. I had myself reconsidering if I even want to create kits, megapacks and sleeve packs in the future as a result of this. I mean I spend hours and hours on creating assets for the community without even getting anything from it and I only hope people love my contribution and have a lot of fun playing with the assets in their FM saves. This community should do it, we should do it together.
