I love the Dark Skin. - But when I open the “Settings” menu while playing the 3D game, the screen freezes, and I can’t get back into the game! - This has happened to me twice now.

In my opinion, your version 1.2 is now perfect. I love the dark skin. - It's great that you removed the often “distorted” manager image from the home screen. Unfortunately, the options for creating a good-looking character are still very limited.

Thanks for this awesome skin! - The dark version is also easy on the eyes. - Any suggestions for improvement? Hmm, I can't think of any right now.

Great skin! - But the background image is too bright; it's jarring between the tiles. It would be really great if the turquoise color in particular were a little darker!

I really hope there will be an update to the latest version. In my opinion, it's the best skin.

#871290 Static and video adboards for FM 26

First of all: When playing FM, it is basically irrelevant whether the perimeter advertising is modeled on real life. You hardly ever look there in the 3D game.

 

However, modders who want to make money should bear the following in mind, in addition to the moral code:

 

Problem No. 1: Game license (EULA)
The following applies to Football Manager 2026 from Sports Interactive:
Mods may not be sold commercially.
Even if they are “only” graphics for advertising boards, they remain:
• a modification of the game
• based on game content
• without their own commercial license
a violation of the terms of use.

Problem No. 2: Trademark & advertising rights
This is where it gets even trickier:
Advertising boards usually contain:
• real brands
• real sponsors
• protected logos
Examples (typical for major leagues) are:
• Emirates
• Allianz

• Heineken
As soon as someone:
• uses these brands
• and earns money from them
it can become very problematic for the modder in terms of trademark law.

Is adboards for “Bundesliga (Germany)” so special that you have to pay for it?

@BassyBoyYT, thank you for your work.  
But in my game with BVB (Borussia Dortmund), everything is still too dark in the evening, so unfortunately it's unplayable. AND my fans all look the same and are dressed in red, like at a North Korean political rally.

There is no question that an impressive amount of technical work has gone into these adboard mods, especially with the transition to the Unity engine. Precisely for that reason, the decision to lock major and highly popular content such as the Bundesliga behind a €5 Patreon paywall deserves critical scrutiny. It leaves more than just a faintly negative aftertaste.

The Football Manager community has, over decades, been built on a clear and consistent principle: sharing rather than gatekeeping. When creators like BassyBoy release massive stadium packs entirely for free and significantly enrich FM26 for everyone, a hard paywall for individual league files feels not only out of place, but fundamentally at odds with the spirit of this community.

Of course, work deserves recognition and support. However, recognition within this community has traditionally been voluntary — driven by appreciation, not access restrictions. Models such as “Buy me a coffee” reflect this ethos far better than locking core content behind a paywall, which effectively turns a community contribution into a commercial product.

Once we start placing mods behind paywalls and fragmenting the game into paid components, we gradually erode the very foundation that has sustained this community for years. This becomes even more problematic when considering that many of these assets already exist in a legally grey area.

It would be worth pausing to reflect on this direction and reconsider the approach — returning to a model where openness, voluntary support, and genuine passion for the game take precedence over monetising content that has long been understood as a shared community benefit.

Quick question. Is it better to install all from the 1st pack to the last? I'm asking because I felt Bassey said that we should uninstall the previous packs and I did it. But some bundles are missing. 

 

Also if you could make the crowd more diverse (people with different clothes and heights) it would be more fun to watch. With all the caracters looking the same it feels we are in a parade in North Korea.

 

Thanks and keep up the brilliant work!

 

Regarding North Korea: @BassyBoyYT has already announced that he will remedy the situation regarding the identical-looking characters. So please be patient.

That can't be right. Think of new players who don't have the “old” versions. But: When installing the second version, you should install the hotfixes one after the other.

I play with BVB and the Signal Iduna Arena is unevenly lit, ranging from bright to semi-dark. This means that version 1.3.0 is not as good as the previous versions.

@Davi Marta Jr., I've had this problem twice already! After that, the game crashed. - I have no idea why this serious error occurs.

I see this in coffeehouseFM.com: 

FM24 Rensie skin

Football Manager 2024 will be the 20th game in Sports Interactive’s Football Manager series and will be the last of its kind. 
It means also the last Rensie custom skin of its kind. 
It will be released in November 2023.

What a shame, the regen faces now look more natural than the faces of the top players! - But it's a great face pack.

Hello @i_am_the shark.

Your skin is very beautiful.
But I have discovered a small error: The data of the stadium construction is wrong. - For example, you title it 1.953 instead of 1953 !

If you plan a new version, please correct this error.
