Messing with the skin in mid game is not a good idea either.
Here is what I do as a rule.

No other skins in the skins folder.
Don't make any changes to the skin with game on.

Also I put my skin in the other Sports Interactive folder, if you know what I mean by that.
Don't know why but have done since the early days of FM 14 as it seemed to speed up the skin.
In my opinion this has been the worst ever version for crashes etc, that may get me in trouble for saying it but for me its true.
Great game but spoiled by way too many problems, i mean HOW many updates,come on SORT-IT-OUT-SI !!!

Not had a problem with crashes myself but did have a lot of run-time errors but as Castor Troy said you have to make sure your cache is deleted regularly.
That seems to clear up that problem

One last thought.
I never used the Background/Opacity selector in previous skins as I think that causes to many problems, had a lot less problems without it but that's what people asked for so I put it in.
May make a version without that in as I did in my previous versions of the Scorpio Skin.

This is great! What we could really do with is an xml file to give us logos instead of kits on the pop up when goals are scored, yellow cards etc.


Yes I agree.....tried to do that but no idea myself to be honest...but yes would be good.

Thanks Poe, glad to be here.

Got some interesting ideas for skins and other graphics.
I will be re making the TV Logo pack which was hugely popular last year, had lots of people asking about it.
A few changes to the Omega skin, plus I hope to start work on Team Specific Skins if people are interested.
Looking forward to working with you all and thanks once again for the opportunity.

Hi everyone.

I am thinking of making a pack of the TV Inbox Banners for the skin so there is more choice than just the Sky Sports one.
So get in touch and leave me your suggestions of what you would like to see, I will try my best to get them all done for you.
Also the Tv Logos for match screen (I made a pack of these last year)
I have a collection of logos ready to use.

Beautiful skin, congratulations !
But how to remove "skysportnewsHD" to find the usual titles?
Thank you, merci.

That's just part of the skin...to remove that would in my opinion make the skin less appealing.
This was a feature lots of people asked me to try and add to my Scorpio Shins skins.
Is there a different name you would like shown instead ? as this was something I thought of doing.

Hmm in my tactic screen view it doesn't show player positions like ΒΒΜ or BPD. I play in 1920x1080 resolution windowed mode. Here is a screenshot:

I see there are logos in stead of kits in this screenshots. Is it possible to have the kits back in the match?


If you would like the kits back instead of logos then place the match incidents file attached in the skins panels folder

Wow im not even criticising the skin just asking for some help, all i did was download it to my skin folder and used it, no need for the stroppy answer is there?


Just trying to help m8......just pointing out the facts that the skin has a certain panel installed as most new skins do now.
That show the info mentioned.
Sorry if it sounded harsh

Make sure you clear the game cache and I would remove any other skins from the folder

Look mate......there are not 2 boxes if you have 2 you have done something to the skin or something wrong.
The match inbetween highlights panel is made to show 4 panels ......with that panel in it is impossible for there to be 2.
Sorry

great skin!! but can someone tell me how i can get several panels on the screen while watching the match?, as in one of the pictures above there is 4 panels with latest scores, match stats etc


Little arrows top corner of boxes change each box to show info you like.....pause match first though
plus you have to enable the inbetween highlights info in the game settings

All pics are in one folder with one config file, but the pics will show on all screens including matchdays and the little stadium mini view. Took me a long time to put it together, but its only for UK sides as they're the most popular leagues.


Hi m8

I have put all the Club stadiums in one folder with one config its easier I think

I cant seem to get this to work! Ive downloaded the xml file and put it in the panels folder of my skin but it is still the kits that show.


Have you cleared the cache in preferences and also make sure the 'use cache to decrease page loading times' is not ticked
