Without being a dummy… could one of you guys show me exactly how you have the files set up? I've duplicated everything from my C: to my D: but I've still got black video boards. I just can't get this to work!

If it's possible to get a step-by-step on what you did I could start the whole process from the beginning and see if I can get it right.

 

Never mind guys. I had to reboot the game, not just reload the skin, and it's worked!

It looks like Giovanni Baruffa solved it by doing like me (just above your reply), look at top post page 18. If you duplicate the folders, on both C: and D: then it works.

I've tried everything I can on here to get the video boards to work but all I'm getting is the black screen.

FWIW I've got my graphics folder in the D: drive and have added the “simatchviewer_uncompressed” folder to my steamlibrary folder which is also on the D:

 

I also have the video ad files on the C: drive where the steam folders are as per the install. No change.

Any hints, or a hand over where exactly I should be placing the folders to get the video boards working would be great. The static adboards and stadium ads and banners are working perfectly.

Hey @rabcp

Firstly… what a wonderful pack of ads and graphics. Really adds to the game. The only issue I'm having is the black video adboards issue. Everything else works fine. I'm using FM21 Touch, so I have made sure the data file has gone in the Touch folder in Steam but it hasn't fixed the issue. Would it matter that my steam folder isn't actually in program files?

This is actually where's it located on my PC…

 

 

 

 

If this shouldn't make a difference I'll keep trying to make it work. I've tried the hd folder renamed sd solution but it hasn't made a difference. Static boards and all other graphics are working fine, just not the video boards.

 

Went back and reinstalled everything from the start making sure to put the steam folder in the different location on my PC…
 

 

How good does that bloody look?! Great work mate. Really, really sensational.
