Cheers mate. Gawd knows what Si were playing at when they made the FM19/20 balls. There was no chance of creating anything that wasn't a mess, so thankfully they've made life a lot easier. I'm currently not only looking at new balls but how to achieve the best geometry when on screen.

Cheers buddy. Was it coincedence or plagiarism that hours after I posted, another came along and imitated. I don't have an issue with competition but if you're not offering something different, then stay away. Even a conversation is welcome, so that you don't copy another's work but focus on different regions or areas but nothing has been forthcoming, hey ho. I will continue and attempt to enhance and improve with any updates.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I was waiting for any positives before carrying on with additions/enhancements. To those who have made or others likely to make requests in the future, I will attempt to include as many competitions, tournaments and global leagues as possible.

Collar area is distorted so you have to experiment with weird shapes to get in game an ordinary round collar, for example. The inside of a collar is also weirdly mapped to models that shows in locker room, so again you have to make compromises if you want both 3D match and locker room version to look acceptable. Also, the number and player name on the back is to high up, so you can't make some designs properly, and sponsors above player name are impossible to fit. Shorts last year were mapped all around player body and had only one joint on player's righ hip. Now they're divided in 4 parts and mapped randomly, so you have 4 joints to allign.
It's a very sloppy work by SI modelers if you ask me. What worries me is that maybe they'll update it right next year, making again all work from this season useless

Thanks for the feedback my friend. My creativity has been destroyed also. I used to make 3D match balls for FM18 but FM19 messed with the colours and FM20 has made it all but impossible with a ridiculous template !

English Premier league 19/20 for FM20 is now available for download.

I still haven't completed all teams but in the interest of releasing the pack as soon as possible, I made simple placeholder kits with correct logos and colours for 6 teams. I'll repleace them with proper kits as soon as I make them. They're not that bad in game and definitely better than nothing.

You're the man bolid and it's especially noticeable since I acquired a 4K monitor !! It's a shame that Si have yet again given us a choppy ME in the beta but it will be sorted eventually.

Crystal Palace FM20 away. Again, it's advisable to install it as 3rd because SI mixed it up in Beta

Many thanks bolid ! Yes it's cock up by Si but I'll sort it with the editor or the IGE when the full game is released.

Crystal Palace FM20 kit, that is 3rd in real life but away in FM20 beta. So install it as away kit, otherwise back number and UI colors won't match

Many thanks bolid !! Yes,I also noted it's been registered as the away kit in FM20,why, I have no idea !

The 2D kits are perfect but that's not surprising, however not all the 3D kits look right but bolid is working on them as we speak.

Can't remember what I have and haven't posted so gonna drop the kits I've made here, Halifax is possibly on the previous page (320), and Hartlepool, Maidenhead, Fylde and Eastleigh are on this page (321). Some details are assumed because I only really intended to use these myself, but figured some people might appreciate them as well.

I haven't found picture with back of the kit though I admit I didn't search very hard

No problem mate,I guessed that was the reason. I've made botched versions based on the 1918/19 away kits for the time being,so that will do for now.

Normally that's possible but on top of the jpg compression you're losing a lot of quality in my opinion. Another reason to save kits as .png when they're made instead as .jpg, and upload to a filehost that won't resize them

I agree that it's pointless to upload incorrectly sized kits in jpeg and there's no real reason to do so. However,with the graphical limitations of the FM match engine,compromises such as resizing and formatting are barely noticeable.
