@DazS8 

Very nice, mate.

Found some minor issue in the after-match report in the mail inbox

 

 

Player name is missing…

 

I quick-checked with an older version… Player name was there, might have happened when you added the xG under the result box…

 

Weird, it's now working for me - nevermind…

Awesome job as always!! Thanks for the speed in getting this out as well.

 

Quick one, noted this issue where salary amount is just floating. I had already cleared cache etc and have no other skins in the folder. thanks.

 

Actually it's correctly placed but somehow the field description (could be “wage” here) got lost 🙂

Awesome Flut, some very nice changes implemented!

 

 

As we had some mentioning of this before in the thread, here's for those who want to adjust the colour of the attribute boxes in the player profile:

 

 

Within the skin folder, go to settings\fm2024flutskin_dark settings.xml

 

Find the follwoing piece of code:

 

 <!-- background attribute box colours Flut FM23 -→
 

 <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="146" green="82" blue="143"/> 
  <colour name="low attribute background"  red="244" green="152" blue="152"/>
  <colour name="normal attribute background" red="251" green="250" blue="115"/>
      <colour name="good attribute background" red="195" green="242" blue="150"/>
 <colour name="excellent attribute background" red="63" green="229" blue="70"/> 

 

Now just adjust the colours to your personal references.

 

To give you an idea, here's what I changed, resulting in the picture above:

 

 <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="146" green="82" blue="143"/> 
  <colour name="low attribute background"  red="244" green="102" blue="102"/>
  <colour name="normal attribute background" red="221" green="221" blue="221"/>
      <colour name="good attribute background" red="251" green="250" blue="55"/>
 <colour name="excellent attribute background" red="63" green="229" blue="70"/>
 

Unknown attribute matters, when veiwing the profile of unscouted or only partially scouted players.

 

This also corresponds to the skin settings in the game preferences, when it comes to setting the values for low, normal, good, excellent.

As you can see, in my example setting “15” is classified as “Excellent” (green) while originally this starts at 16.

 

Hope that helps 🙂

My apologies as I am a bit naive technically. I was wondering why I can't see everything on my screen as it truncates…no other skin does this? Will this be correct when the non beta FLUT skin comes out. This appear during match play when the away team name only appears partially and I can not see the pause/continue button at all.

 

Hm, I think somehwere in the thread here someone had a similar issue already, You might want to read through a couple of pages and maybe find your answer…

Hi 

You can use the alt 19. It is prepared for grey, but you can change it for black if you want.

 

Great, thanks mate - will look into 😉

Gents,

 

is there a quick way to switch color in the panel headers (only there would be fine) from team colour to black/white?

 

I already switched the left menu bar to the black one included in the skin and would like to do the same with the different panel headers.

Found how to change it, had to add into the settings file the following…
 <colour name="match day training calendar colour" red="10" green="195" blue="195"/>
For some reason that does both the calendar and the box in processing/

 

How does it look like when adjusted?

Did you read Flut's initially posting?

 

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.

 

So anything beyond this will lead to unwanted effects in diaplyed pictures - as you're mentioning… 😉

I know mate. This is not the issue because otherwise it wouldn't show up at all.

 

It's only a delay at the start of the game. Once clicked on the appropriate tab, the picture shows. Really weird…

Very nice with editing the competiotion news panel

 

However I have a weird behaviour with that. If I add “Transfermarkt” for exampel and make it the feafult also, actually the panel starts there - but not showing the PNG.

I need to click on the approriate Transfermarkt TAB once - then the picture shows up.

 

So far couldn't find what's actaully causing this…

Anyone wanting a less blur sharper picture on your news page? 

 

 

Thats fairly easy… 

 

Go to the web page of your choice, zoom into the page as much as possible but make sure, you still get a sharp, decent picture.
 Use the win builtin snipping tool and capture the header of the page you want to show in the news panel. Save it as football365.png as an example.

 

Now you only need to replace the original one within the skin with the captured one - and here we go… 

 

Hint, the bigger you can zoom the original page in the browser with good sharpness - before you do the capture - the better the result will be, as the picture will be resized in the skin anyway to fit into the panel.

 
I'm sure there might be even better ways which might result in even better qualitiy pictures but just wanted to share with you an easy way to get decent results…

Thanks so much; how do I choose which logo will be used?

 

Bielsa already explained… 😉

 

“You need to look in the skin/graphics/pictures/icons

 

pick the one you want and rename it tv logo and put outside the folder”

Check the picture:

 

 

Switch any if these to something else and save your game. If you reload it, it will have revert to what you see above.

 

And yes, I have set it correctly in the preferences:

 

 

Just to make sure that this did not get mixed up by SI, I tried the other way round as well - both setting show the same issue… 

 

Update:

 

In the meantime I checked SI Bugforum and found a thread, where someone mentioning it. So for now, it looks like a bug in FM and not a skin issue. It's not working with all Skins, including the built-in one…

Do you have a screenshot on this?

Check your current view in tactics window.

 

Make sure one of your columns is

 

Overal Physical Condition/Match Sharpness

 

This should do the trick…

Great Job, Flut!

 

Thanks for all the hints and corrections you share with us!

 

Almost 2000 downloads, so I hope that at least a fair share of users will donate to show their appreciation for the great work you did. It's well deserved!

I just found that the stadium owner does not show up on the stadium overview panel:

 

 

On a different panel, stadium owner is still there… However I think the information is collected differently…

 

(Stadionbesitzer = Stadium owner)

Hi, great skin! Been using it on FM23 as well! One thing is there a way to enable the sim button to skip matches? I like to skip matches sometimes (like friendlies or some cup matches etc).

 

You mean like in Narigon Skin as an example? 

 

Yeah, that would be nice to be able to just sim the rest of a running match if we feel it's decided already…

This is the current aftergame page - beautiful btw!

 

 

Is it possible to add the xG into the marked area additonally - between shots on goal and Fouls total for example? I know it's at the right bottom corner already but it would be very nice to have it in the middle section as well…

This seem to be the colors, yes. However, no logical pattern detectable in the xml …

Any idea how that button is called?

 

 

If you hover over with the mouse, it changes to kind of purple…

 

Would really like to get rid of those two 😀

I'm currently preparing for Releaseversion of FM24 and German-League-File - at which time I will add a small local Club into FM.

 

Someone created a nice set of shirts for me which I started testing to add to the game on a different already existing minor club.

 

All works fine so far, except two things:

 

Third/Alternative shirt is missing on club overview page. However, this might be due to the club missing a third alternative shirt in the database in the first place.

 

Second thing is, if I go to a player on that club, the club logo, and front side of the main shirt is displayed perfectly. 

However, I cannot make the backside of the shirt working with my new additons.

 

While the code for displaying the front of the shirt is something like:

 

<record from="newclub_front" to="graphics/pictures/club/121204/logo/background/left"/>

 

What does it require to correctly display the backside of the shirt - where Name and number will be added by the skin - as well?

The new adjusted colour scheme looks nice so far. However, I found one situation, which looks rather ugly 🙂

 

Can you probably adjust this as well?

Hi. Thank you all for your kind words!!!!

 

Regarding the questions:

 

Darkside63

  1. First issue seen - on player detail screen, CA line is almost completely cut off… - yes. That is due the fact we don’t have the Ingame Editor (IGE). That box contains hidden attributes and only works after we install the IGE. Until that we have to choose other box in drop down arrow.
  2. The inbox bug – that is also present in the default skin. However, now I fixed it. The fix will be included in the next release of the skin.
  3. When going to tactic window, it always starts with the view including the bench - yes, for that go to team instructions mini overview.xml and change

<container class="tabbed_container" appearance="" id="Trak" default_item="blic" save_session_state="true">   

For

<container class="tabbed_container" appearance="" id="Trak" default_item="bloc" save_session_state="true">   

 

        4. For ticket: go to match team news panel.xml and change

<container class="tabbed_container" id="Xvfd" default_item="abcv" priority="1" save_session_state="true">

For

<container class="tabbed_container" id="Xvfd" default_item="avxs" priority="1" save_session_state="true">

 

         5. If I want to switch the news source to “transfermarkt” - where would I need to put the two files (jpg, xml) ? 

You just have to replace the current graphic for 365 (which is the default one), in graphics/boxes/news.

Replace the png file named football365.png for your of transfermarkt and keep the name football365.png

 

Stefanovski

The skin includes condition/sharpness. If it doesn’t work in your game, I believe is a conflict with other skin. Please keep only this skin in the skins folder, clear the cache, exit the game and reload it.

 

Also noticed that all the scouting screens now has a gap in between the list of players. this is also the case for the staff search. – If you are talking about the rows space, that is due to the fact that the skin includes the players faces (they are not showed in your screenshot – again, I believe is due to a conflict among skins).

Look at my screenshot

 

Bielsa is a Legend

Yes you can use them. Maybe there are just a few that don’t work well….

 

This is awesome, I applied your suggestions and everything worked - as expected 🙂 
Thanks a lot for sharing all this information with us.

Of course, I also donated - it's not much but hope it helps somewhat…

 

 

Btw, for those who prefer to have their players on loan (in/out) in the original colours - like I do - simply go to “settings\fm2024flutskin_dark settings.xml”

 

and search for

 

<colour name="loan out" red="249" green="189" blue="124" /> <!-- on loan to other club -->
<colour name="loan in" red="155" green="249" blue="155"/>    <!-- on loan from other club -->

 

and change to

 

<colour name="loan out" value="purple 300" /> <!-- on loan to other club -->
<colour name="loan in" value="blue 300"/>    <!-- on loan from other club -->

 

You can do the same for players on trial in/out … Trial in should be something close to value="green 300"
