If this is done, the game sounds will return?

Just the default sounds, prior to mod.

The best just got better ! Rick of Andromeda fame made a worthy attempt at an acceptable IBH panel because the default is a mess. No decent overview panel, sub panels too small to show full teams and subs and wasted space. No pressure Flut my friend but to get even close to the excellent FM20 IBH panel would be a revelation. Regardless, as it is, there are no rivals. Thanks again !

The Israeli one. What will be if I write in config two balls to the same competition? Won't it randomize between those 2 balls?

I'll have a look. In answer to your question, no it won't randomise, the config file will pick the first one it finds, in alphabetical or numerical order.

Ok. Can you explain how, considering that the replacement file have the same name?

No idea, I didn't create the file, only that it causes issues with FM21.

I was referring to the "simatchviewer-pc.fmf" file being the issue.

Is there a possibility to use them all, like randomly, in one competition? I am playing the league, that is NOT mentioned in the config file. So, how can I use all these pretty balls in my league?

No, you can't use them all in one competition as every config reference is unique to that league or competiotion. What league are you playing ?

I guess mate well fingers crossed both he and flut can get their skins back to how they want them because for me football manager isn’t the same without their skins. I hope sports interactive realise one day that they put out the product but it’s the hard work of all the modding community that takes the game to the next level.

It now seems that Rick has given up on the Andromeda skin due to a yet unknown reason. I guess there is more to life than FM. In the meantime it seems Flut has cracked it with v2.2 !

These files are not compatible with latest 21.2 version....

Yes, I couldn't get the download with the fmf file to work, that's why I've stayed with my version.

I don’t know mate all I know is about 11 30pm uk time last night I checked the page and I noticed he had replaced the 1.1 version of his skin with a 1.2 version I downloaded that one and the lag problem caused by the football manager update had been fixed. I know about a hour before he had removed the link while he fixed the lag problem. That’s why I was constantly checking waiting for a new link.

Well, I guess he wasn't happy with it because he's pulled the link to the skin permanently now, until fixed.

@bartdude he updated the andromeda skin last night mate on his andromeda’s Facebook page the update he did fixed the lag problem for me not sure how he did it but he did. As for the information about a fix regarding tabs and buttons folder that’s just something I noticed myself when I was seeing if I could make a temporary fix for myself that’s why I said not 100 percent sure I just noticed by removing some things in the flutskin it was slightly faster so I posted for flut because obviously he is the one with the knowledge. I got that idea of removing things from your information about custom built skins with more panel changes running slower 🙂

I follow his Facebook page regularly and there's nothing there to say it's fixed, as far as I can see.

@flut
Hi all: only now I could look at your comments and the reported problem. I also quickly load my game and is also slow. I don't know why but as soon as possible I will try to do something. I don't know if I will be able to manage that problem but I believe bartdude is right. So, I promise to analyse and try to solve or, at least, attenuate that problem. Is a shame. SI every years "kill" the skins edited by FM fans!! Sorry for that problems but I really unexpected them. 😢

Hey mate just to let you know the creator of andromeda skin managed to fix the lag issue on his skin, I’m not 100 percent sure but I think it can be fixed by doing something with tabs and buttons folder in the graphics folder of the skin. I hope that can be of any use to you mate.

This is the reason I did not put my commentary pack up as a download because of the compromises and crash risk. Also, I mentioned before, my sounds are not contained in an fmf file but as a seperate folder, for ease of editing, which I'm still working on to reduce as many of those irritating repeat comments and overlaps as possible, without losing too much content. I'm not having any issues so far, even after the 21.2 update, apart from the VAR one, mentioned elsewhere on here.

For sure, it's the two best skins by a mile where the problem occurs (Flutskin and Andromeda). Those skins contain far more content and customisation than their rivals put together. As I said before, check the file size of a skin before you download it, as an indication of the content that will be displayed within the game. Use a pimped default skin like Priisek and there's no issue. However, FM purists like me would never consider using anything else but the Flutskin because it's been the flagship skin since FM18. It will be sorted soon, have no doubt.

After a lot of testing I've discovered If you use any 3rd party skin with a lot of content, after the 21.2 update, the screen lag is there. You'd think Si would have checked that before releasing, cos let's face it, who would voluntarily choose to use the default skin !

The lag between screens is nothing to do with the Flutskin but everything to do with the 21.2 update. Si have stuffed up again !!

how do you do that?
it has messed up my simatchviewer-pc

Well, lesson number one is ALWAYS back up files in FM before overwriting with mods. As for verifying, go to Steam page, right click on "Football Manager 2021", click on "Properties" then "LOCAL FILES". Then click on "Verify integrity of game files".

Hi

Was wondering if anyone knows how to amend the kit in the attachment. It's the wrong kit, the correct kit is in place for this team in the club profile but it just appears incorrect in the search bar.

Check out the instructions in the "2D as left logo" information. You need to place your current correct kit into that logo pack and it will show up.

I don't understand this grudge.
My previous post was not a criticism of your work. I just pointed out that the aforementioned balls in your pack are outdated and have been replaced by new models or new manufacturers in real life. Just for a matter of realism, which I guess is an appreciated feature in a simulation game. However, I'm really struggle to see where I asked for "perfection" in my previous post.
I thought that inputs or feedbacks would be well accepted, but maybe I was wrong. I apologize for that.

P.S. For the record, the default balls I requested are not used in every match. They are already in the game because they appear in the relevant licensed competition to which they belong. However, the balls in your pack replace the correct ones already in the game. That's it. It was just a note for you before, not a demand for perfection.

Not a grudge, it was about the matter of fact intonation perceived. Like I'd been called to the head teacher's office for a telling off and what I need to do to rectify my failings. Not asking for perfection ? So who was this comment you made on another post aimed at ? "English Northern Premier League ball (IDs: 5103716 - 90081108 - 90081109). Please bear in mind that the "Chryso" logo should appear only on the front of the ball, but not on the back". NONE of balls in the pack are wholly accurate, due to how FM handles the animation, so it's a compromise, regardless of the ball graphics. The whole concept was about giving some variation to the leagues/competitions played, despite the limitations. Regardless, I take all comments and requests on board, if they have a polite and respectful tone.

Hi, this is excellent, is there any way of adding the SPFL ball. I've added a link below as its probably the best way of showcasing all sides of the ball for you?

SPFL Ball (apologies if this isn't allowed)

Thanks in advance

Will update in next pack.

English EFL Cup, EFL Trophy and National League balls are outdated. You should restore and add the default ones already in the game.

The simple answer is, if you don't like it, delete it. It all depends if a decent qualiy image of a ball is available and it wasn't the case with the balls you quoted. The thing that pisses off creators are those that demand perfection, especially when they're not charging for their work. I don't have a problem answering queries, it's not about what people say but how they say it. For the record, the "default" ball is the one that appeared from day one of FM21 and shows in every game.

However, like an idiot, I forgot to back up the two original files. I dont suppose any has them do they?

Do you plan to release the crowd sounds to the community?

I was not involved with the crowd only sounds. I believe it's still available at FM Scout, FM20 downloads but whether it works in FM21 I couldn't say

hello my friends, someone else happens, that the 3d kit from Arsenal and Liverpool don't work, the ids are correct

thanks

I had the same problem. It's worth purchasing the IGE. NOT for cheating, as that makes playing FM pointless. It costs less than buying a pint in London and has many other uses. The kit editor is good for modifying. I removed all the alternate kits for Liverpool and Arsenal and any major clubs with numerous competition specific kits and made sure the competition was set to "0". They now work fine. The IGE is also useful for moving players/managers back to their original clubs when FM moves them ! It's better than update packs because with those you have to start a new game which is a pain and it means losing your career to date.

Glad kosic got this working, as the first version from FM20 crashed the game. As a contributor to the original from FM18, I managed to get that pack to work in FM21 but I have my match sounds seperate, as it makes it easier to modify sound files. The original suffered from many commentary overlaps and that's why I got involved in modifying the sounds heard. Yes, this is a commentary pack with improved crowd sounds and not crowd sounds alone.
