Tom, sorry if this has been answered before but is there a way I can change the scorers font colour from the yellow to white or even a pale blue colour ? yellow seems a little too bright thanks alot


Whereabouts is that? (There's a few places with scorer displays, and I bet they use different values)

What's the -1 bit for? That's what'll be causing the problem, the skin folder name has to match the name of the config file immediately inside.

You've definitely not accidentally put the folder in a subfolder of your skins folder?

Yes. I did everything according to your instructions


The menubar is supposed to be invisible during the match itself, it is on the default skin. There's a play/pause button you can use instead

Can anyone please advise how to make the stadium pictures work ?

I have plenty of stadium pics, but cannot replicate what I can see in the screen shots.

Many thanks.


If you mean background pics, they don't work (yet)

i dont know what I'm doing wrong here... I have downloaded the v1.1 and put it in skins folder. have deleted the steklo 1 folder as well so there is only the config file in the skins folder + the v1.1 folder. when i start up fm13 the new skin doesnt appear in the list in prefs? steklo1 worked fine.

what am i missing??


Have you just played FMC or a challenge? The game remembers what you did last and only shows skins for that mode on the start screen

Have the same problem here (as Andrewj73)...with the 1.1 version...


Did you remove the old steklo folder first? It's definitely fixed in v1.1.

Great work tom.

Can you help me find the folder for your skin that has the settings for the player attributes? I've tried to edit them using the in game, skin colour option under prefrences but for some reason they change back to default everytime I reload. I'd like to swap the values of "good" and "excellent" (Orange and Green)

Thanks.


The settings folder.

suggestion.. move the "background change" button to the right side of the bar, because it is very close to the "back" button... and I'm hitting it unconsciously..


It's not that close, and if I move it over to the right, it's next to the continue button, which is potentially much more annoying than simply going back a screen.

Hi Tom, thanks for the great skin ! One little thing: Would it be possible to add the "instant result" option from the FM Classic version ?

cheers,

mario


I answered on the SI forums, no I won't be adding that.

Tom is there anyway of making the processing bar smaller as the news part has bit missing as you can see a little bit of a p[layers head at the bottom of it and you can make out what it is or who it is?

My resolution is 1280 by 800

By the look of your screenshots i think your resolution is even lower?


I resize the window so the screenshots aren't massive (I play at 1920x1080). I'm pretty sure the sizes are the same as the default skin (or very similar). I'll have a look.

I made a mistake: when deleting the v 1.0 skin folder, i deleted the config.xml file in root skin folder too.. I have no other skins and all works without problem; however, if is better to keep that file, could anyone upload it somewhere?

Or, still easier, paste the text here so i can create the file?

Thanks in advance


Here you go

really lovely skin but the issue with the Continue/Resume Match button not being in the Match screens is an issue - got stuck in half time of a League Cup match extra time scenario - had to get out to the home page and change the skin to the SI default to finish the match.

I'm sorry for moaning as its a fantastic skin otherwise


Have you got v1.1? I've fixed that.

They might not be present in FM, so they won't appear. Also, some things only work in certain places

Usually when i make a tactical change, normally when the changes are pending you cant tweak anything until its done but mine seems to stay that way for the rest of the game.


Any tactical change, or just subs, etc.?

Excellent work mate definitely the best skin iv used, I really like the transparent tabs in match. Just a few issues though and I don't know if this is something everyone is experiencing but about 5 times now iv been unable to change tactics during match, the options on the top bar grey out and also clicking on team doesn't do anything, I changed back to default skin and the problem doesn't occur. Any suggestions for me because I would really like to continue using your skin but obviously this is quite a big issue and could cost me points. Also any ideas on how to get our preferred attribute colours to stick because every time I load up the game they revert to default colours


Is the tactics problem intermittent, or does it happen every time you try to change tactics?

To get stadium pics on the club overview screens, simply put the two xml files in the zipfile into steklo_x3/panels

If you want to get stadium pictures on your club overview screen, put the contents of the attached zipfile into steklo_x3/panels and reload the skin.

Tom, the matchday widgets have lost their transparency in the new version over your original, is there any easy way to get this back ?

Thanks very much.


Not really (unless you've still got the v1 7z file knocking about)

Hi mate, any chance to make this available with the instant result button from the FMC skin/version ?


No.

I will be adding a sort of mini-patch so you can do this, however:

Its seems to be the same issue with Steklo


To be fair, I hadn't uploaded the version that shows them on the match preview screen when you posted.

Some opportunities for Improvements -

In Match -
  • Continue Match/Resume missing from - Team Overview screen
  • Post Match - missing Continue Button - only work around is to press space bar
  • Need to have Resume Game Button on every screen with Match.
I hope this helps.

Great looking skin, but not easy to use in matches.


That's been mentioned many, many times already.

Can anybody help me at all?!

I just want to make the widgets and menus more opaque....


If you're willing to wait a little bit, I'm hoping to upload v1.1 tonight

This is where my ignorance will really show... I'm still not sure how to change the opaqueness of widgets and drop down menus etc. This is the last thing I need to change to make this a perfect skin.


You'd need to change the images used to build them
