Got my first crash now. Although i didn't have a game to play.
The game's memory usage skyrocketed and just *poof*

The only difference at my end now was that this was a brand new save that i had just started up again.
The other save, where i had no problems, was a save started in Beta.

Beta save = fine
Release 17.1.1 = not fine.

There must be a conflict somewhere. As in, a conflict in files locally on the computer.
Otherwise there would've been a crash at my end as well, as it would be the something within the skin itself.

Now, having said that; i don't know anything about skinning so i hope someone, who definitely knows, will correct me.

But i do find it odd that quite a few are experiencing crashes and some don't.

Read ALL of the following BEFORE doing anything, should you try the suggestions below.

People have probably tried the following as well, but i would try to clear the skins folder for skins, then do the following:
Untick "use caching...". Tick reload skin. Select a vanilla skin. Confim. Exit game. Put only Flut Skin inside the skins folder (or re-download again to be sure you've got the latest). Restart game. Choose the Flut Skin under Preferences. Untick Reload Skin. Tick "Use caching..."
I would also try to empty the Panels folder if there is one. Could potentially be a problem with a custom .xml file in the Panels folder.


Another thing would be to delete the Preferences and Cache folder under AppData (use Windows search function and write %AppData%).
Should be under AppData --> Local --> Sports Interactive --> Football Manager 2017. That will remove your custom views and Preferences settings though. So try doing that as a last resort.
There's also an .skc file there, inside the "Caches" folder which should be named "fm2017flutskindark.skc". I have no idea what that file does but could be worth trying to delete only that file as well.

Just make sure your game isn't running when deleting files from there.

That's all i can think of. Not saying it will work, but could be worth a try. Another solution is to wait until an updated version of the skin comes along.

Does the majority experience a crash or just a few?
I haven't got a single crash myself yet. Probably most of you, if not all, have done it but make sure you clear the cache before applying the updated/new skin.
Just a little reminder for those who didn't do it or don't know.

-EDIT-

Never mind. Figured it out. My memory is slowly coming back

Thanks mate

Hey Flut.
Still a great skin. Awesome work.

How will i go about to get rid of the hidden attributes numbers on the player profiles page?

Thanks for your help. Will try it out as soon as i can

2 questions for you.


1 - How do i get the match scoreboard aligned to the middle of the screen?

2 - Do you know what i have to do to be able to auto-hide the sidebar?
Have tried comparing with other skins but i have no idea what i'm looking for and thus been unable to do it.

No worries if you don't know the answer. Just messing about a bit.
Love the skin. It fits my usage perfectly.

Great stuff.
Excellent work, mate. KUTGW

Just noticed this when going to Board -> View Affilliates.
I've cleared cache and reloaded the skin but it didn't help.
