Latest EPL 3D match ball for end of season. If necessary, rename it to the name in your config file.

This can be an issue. Make sure you are on your team's “general” page before attempting to untick.

The skins go into the skins folder you have showing on your attachment

Then you need to have SS kits in your “2d as left logo” folder. There is a post somewhere containing said folder. You need to find it.

Did you clear the cache and make sure you have no other skin in your skin folder ? If that's all good, you need to look elsewhere because I can safely say your issue has nothing to do with the flutskin. 

Yes, it does.

Click on the clock.

To you too, my friend. I will probably have a small tipple over Xmas, Lol. Yep, great result yesterday. Another win could see you in the play-offs.

If you bothered to read beyond what you wanted to read, you'd see that I made a reference to ALL players who displayed with incorrect hair colour/styles. The emphasis on ethnic players was right because it was not only insulting but ruined the very look of the 3d match game. Give it up with your childish responses, nobody is listening to you or taking your comments onboard.

Disorganised appears to be your issue, if repetition is considered. I don't have a problem finding what I need. It does annoy me when those that give their time and content for free are criticised and invariably by those who are not premium members and contribute nothing to the upkeep and existence of the site.

I don't get what you're saying. The default setting is to show the commentary bar in team colours. You have to tick an option in the preferences to show in black and white.

Despite your crap, let me be very clear. I'm not remotely insecure and I don't go around banging the Woke drum, most of it is utter BS but when something is clearly wrong and divisive, an apology is the very least to expect. 

Cheers, Daz ! Up until now I preferred SS kits but it seems many minor leagues are not being created now, so I've switched to FC12. It seems to me that FM Slovakia are a team, so that spreads the time constraints on individuals, whereas bolid74 appears to be a one man band, which is a massive workload, as he also makes exceptional 3D kits. Personally, I think he should consider giving up on the 2D kits and focus solely on 3D. That would reduce his workload and give him the time to perfect his 3D kits ? 

Does your config file have an entry for a third kit ? If not, create the entry and the quickest way for the kit to show in your current save is to use the IGE to create a third kit.

Yep, it's pathetic. They were either too embarrassed to apologise or simply didn't care about such a fundamental cock up. In the changelist they simply wrote and I quote: “Fixed a problem where all players appeared to look the same in game”. No specific mention or an apology with the skin colour mistake. Pitiful. At least now two of my black buddies, who are FM nutters like us, feel a very wrong has been righted.

Ok, so Si has sorted the player skin and hair colour issue and rightly so. The concern is that such a serious issue as skin colour was not recognised before 24.2 was issued and there was no reaction whatsoever after release, despite me posting on their forum and getting a number of “likes”. They simply issued the hotfix without a hint of an apology.

I haven't read that on any Si forum and it didn't work for me. Have you tried it and did it work for you ?

I said “damn near racist” because it's clearly a screw up by Si. An apology and a hotfix is the very least to demand from them.

I've noted the same thing in previous versions of FM, so it appears there are still old ghosts to exorcise, along with the ongoing new ones after 24.2.

You get more ridiculous with every response. You should keep to the phrase “quit while you're behind”, or maybe we'll put it to the vote ?

I would love that to happen, buddy. In my Palace save, Olise, Eze, Edouard and even Zaha at Galatasaray are just some of those, now turned white. I'm staggered there has been no response from Si, so far !

It is truly annoying. It's a known fact that real-llfe players play FIFA/CM. The odds are many of those are black, so I can only imagine how they felt when now they appear white in FM. Still love your humour though, buddy !

Another major issue I should have added to my previous post after the calamitous 24.2 update. Beyond us having to modify regen files and players displaying wrong hair colour and style, is the disgrace of many black players now displaying as white. That's not only insulting but damn near racist. How can Si let this go unnoticed by them and not immediately correct such a basic error. As I said before, after no such issues with FM23, it was so disappointing to see Si are back to the old days of releasing an “improvement” that breaks other areas of the game. Equally as bad, seemingly no-one at Si HQ spots such fundamental errors before any patch is released !!!

So you want to be excused for laziness ? Your “help” from flut was yet another reminder for people to read the read me file. In effect you were wasting his time. Unbelievable !

Regardless of how much time and effort you take to make things obvious and helpful, there will always be those that totally lack any initiative, buddy. We can but try.

I'm fully aware of what you intended, I'd just question why use the time on something with likely little or no appeal ? Whatever, your choice, your time, moving on.

Nice try mate but most people prefer authentic kits and colours.

Oh well, at least Si is back to consistent. Thinking with FM23, we'd seen for the last time, every major update managing to break other areas of the game. Now it's back with a vengeance ! The newgens not working for one and no way from the settings to add a manager picture. The workaround for both is adding "r-" in the config file to each player and manager pic. Also all players in the game have the wrong hairstyles, hair colours and skin colour. You can change the hair colour and style with the IGE, which you have to pay for but not skin colour. To do that you need a more in depth editor, like FMRTE, which you also have to pay for. Surely, some at Si HQ run the modified game before release ?? If that's the case, why are such errors not reported to those that certify such a release to us players ??? 

P.S. I've posted this exact same comment on the Si forum, let's see what they have to see, if at all.

The ball format in FM22 and prior was “.dds”. If you're using FM23 or FM24, the ball format is “.png”. 

Absolutely not, the gradation stops the team shirt being bleached out.
