Hi,

 

I'm not sure why but on the scouting shortlist, under positions there's no positions to click on where the football pitch is?? There was before so I'm unsure what's happened. I'm using the Flutskin 1. I've tried to reload and delete the cache etc but there still not appearing.

 

Many thanks.

 

Hi

Thanks for reporting. Now the problem is fixed!!

Here it is

 

 

Thanks 🙂

But what is the version you are using? Currently that panel is different. Look at my screenshot (in that version you are using, yes, that panel had that bug).

Thanks for your valuable knowledge and time flut.

 

I have had my first success in editing an xml file!

 

So I have managed to change the kit name, but the number seems the same? Is there a seperate xml for the number?

 

Also for the autograph, I followed your instructions to the letter. I created a new .fontxml file which I called playername

 

It seems to have no effect on changing the font though? Do I have to call it something different? How does the game know what font is for the payers name in the profile area?

 

Thanks again in advance mate.

 

 

The number is not a font but a picture. You can find the numbers folders in graphics/pictures/kits/2d/numbers

 

For the autograph,  you should go to player overview panel.xml and change all pieces of code with font="fonts/namex", to font="fonts/playername"

HI Flut

 

I think that I may have discovered a bug in that in my game the “Make Board Request” button is greyed out. When I switch back to the standard skin the button is available.

 

Hi Hovis Dexter

 

Could you please show me a screenshot?

Thanks

Hi Flut

 

A suggestion and request. At present we can see the club rating in the Job Security window but not in the Job Centre. I think that adding the club rating to the Job Centre would be an improvement. If you agree could you do this please?

 

Hi Dexter

Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried but without success (I couldn't make the stars work in the job centre panel…). 😢

Thanks Flut, sorry for being a noob but where is this drop down ?

 

Hi

If you play with icons only in the sidebar (and 1920x1080) you will notice a little arrow on the top right of the kits (the arrow have the colour of prymary colour of your club). If you click on that arrow a menu will be displayed.

If that arrow is not in the correct place, forget it, and move the mouse to the top right of the back kit (near the back kit…) and you will notice that the mouse change to a hand. Click, and the menu will be displayed.

Hi flut. Congratiulation to the game of portugal🙂

I think i found a bug in your skin. Have a look, i can´t click on this buttons:

 

Hi and thanks 🙂 🙂

Regarding that bug, as I said in my answer to DasZ8, remove the  “scouting centre assignment card for recruitment focus.xml” (is located in the widgets folder of the skin). Don't forget to relaod the game.

first,thanks for your skin ,l love this skin so much!

now i have a problem about the kits.

i replaced the kit ,but the goalkeeper` kit is changed into red

so, i want remove the kit(only remove the red one), how to  remove it? which xml should i rewrite

thank you

 

Hi and thanks.

Regarding your question: if you use the 2D kits prepared for flutskin the front kit will be showed in all the players (even in the goalkeeper). You can remove that kits (front kits) in the following code in player overview panel.xml (however, don't forget that since you remove the code the front kit will not be displayed anymore in that place) lines 852 - 884

Once again sorry if this has been covered my friend

 

Hi DazS

Hey Flut

Having a slight issue with Kits overlaying player background - any suggestions?

The kits are in the right place. You are using players background pictures and then, is normal taht the kits are displayed over that picture….If you prefer, chose an option in the drop down arrow that don't duisplay the player background picture (you have 6 options to choose).

Flut thanks a million for your reposnse.

 

I see that I can achieve what I would like to by editing xml files.

 

This is above my level of expertise! Where are the xml files you are talking about and is there a guide to help the correct formatting of xml? I understand I can just use notepad to edit.

 

Thanks and sorry for my lack of knowledge!

The files are in the skin folder in a folder named fonts.

As you can see if you open the kit name.fontxml is the following code

 

<record>
<string id="file_name" value="GT-America-Standard-Bold.ttf"/>
   <integer id="extra_spacing" value="0.6" />
<real id="boldness" value="0.7"/>
<string id="capitalisation" value="upper case" />

</record>
 

After place the font file ypu want in the fonts folder you just have to change thsi code. For example: if the font you placed in the fonts folder was helvetica-bold.ttf (this is the name of the font file), you just should change the code for

 

<record>
<string id="file_name" value="helvetica-bold.ttf"/>
   <integer id="extra_spacing" value="0.6" />
<real id="boldness" value="0.7"/>
<string id="capitalisation" value="upper case" />

</record>
 

Note that you should change with the exact name of the font file. 

 

For the "autograph" the procedure is similar but you must create a new xml file (with the extension .fontxml). For that you can copy one of the mine (for example namex.fontxml) rename it and change the code (and don't include the code line for capitalization if you don't want use capital letters).

Hey again, I've downloaded the neweset version of you wonderful skin. But still the kits in the players profl is not shown correctly. I only wanted to know whether, it is still not included every team. I've downloaded 2d kits again and reloaded skin also. 

Thank you for your help and unbelievable work.

 

Greetings 

 

Hi. Indeed there are teams without 2D kits. For example, is the case of Kaiserslautern, since the Bundesliga2 kits are not made yet.

Hi Flut, 

 

First of all thank you for the amazing skin, second year i'm using it and it blows the other skins away.

I just have one thing that bugs me and i cant find the file to fix it. As can be seen in the screenshot the value of the previous transfer is just a little bit to low. Which file do i have to adjust to move it just a little bit higher?

 

In my game is okay. You can find the code in player additional attributes panel.xml . Here is the code:

 

    <widget class="client_object_label_value_table" id="infq" >
         <!-- Properties applied to all widgets -->
         <!--<record id="default_properties"/>-->
         <record id="object_property">
          <integer id="get_property" value="objt" />
          <integer id="set_property" value="objt" />
         </record>

           <record id="table_properties" mode="fill_rows, stripe_rows, printable" layout="-14,-14" row_height="13" row_spacing="2" default_sort_column="name">

Flut,

 

Thanks a million for your work. It is amazing and increases the enjoyment of FM year after year.

 

Just wondering I have quickly photo shopped the player profile pic. Is it possible to change the font of the player name (like an autograph, didn't you do this another year?) as well as the font for the shirt can this be edited as well. For the pic I just used 2 x fonts that were freely available online. Also where it says coming soon for the stadium, can this be updated to the correct stadium pic? Thank you so much in advance. 

 

Thanks!

Regarding your question, you can change the font of the back kit name in fonts. The file is kit name.fontxml. You just have to include the fonts you want in the fonts folder of the skin and change the code. 

For the player name (yes I included a font similar to a signature/autograph a few seasons ago), include the font type in the fonts folder of the game and create a xml similar, for example, to namex.fontxml. Save the file with the name you want (don't include the code line for capitalization if you don't want use capital letters).

 

Now you have the font for using in player overview panel. Thus, open player overview panel.xml and find for fonts/namex. Change for fonts/[the name of the xml you create in the fonts folder of the skin]

 

Regarding the “coming soon”, when that picture/text will be displayed it means that you don't have the stadium pic.

Thanks for the skin. Excellent work again!

I am using backgrounds megapack. How can I make the backgrounds a little blurry? 

Or how can I make the "panel backgrounds" more visible? 

It will probably be harder than blurry background images. I don't know. Custom backgrounds are sometimes too dominant.

 

Thanks. Regarding your question, I don't know if I understood well. Did you tried to change the percentage in the background selector?

Hi Flut,

 

ive tried the above and downloaded the latest version and it still shows as below and not as your photo  I also attach an image of the skins folder.  Just also to check the screen that you show in your imager is from the Opposition Team  > Team Report > Senior Squad > Scout Report which is also the Strength and Weakness link on the Team Report Overview link.

 

Do you have any other suggestions as its strange how its just this page that isnt showing correctly even when cache is cleared.  The other thing I noticed when comparing the images is on the sidebar going down the screen for inbox home squad etc your image does not have the words but not sure if this would affect my issue or not.  Any help appreciated. Thanks

 

Hi Wazza. Finally I could undewrstand what is the panel (is of the opponent and not our report). And yes, you are absolutely right. There is a bug on it. Now is fixed. Try this and please let me know (place it in the team folder of the skin).

I would like to say that, please, don't have great expectations, because this version contains the reported bugs fixed and just small tweaks. 

Thank you all!!

Bielsa: I really can’t help you since everything is okay in my game, as I told you. The last thing I can say is that make sure that when you reload the game you don't have, in preferences, the "use of the cache..." box with a tick (must not have a tick)

 

NVHeat: regarding the screenshot you place with the Champions league formation I can’t help you since I didn’t change anything in that panel.

 

Fascinoso: thanks! Regarding your question, I believe that happens because the game is reading the players backgrounds folder before the stadiums folder. Try to do the following experience:

  1. Remove the players backgrounds folder and reload the game (the stadiums should be displayed)
  2. Try to place the players backgrounds folder with a folder name that is be read by the game after the stadiums folder (the game read the folders in alphabetical order)

 

Evil-Muffin: I believe Bartdude is right. I didn’t try but I believe you only place the alt for “no managers” in the english league folder (match/comp/eng/efl). For using no managers in all competitions, you should copy the alt for no managers to match folder, to the 4 folders inside eur folder, to Bundesliga folder and to efl folder. Please let me know if it works.

 

Wujek, Sergio27 and Andyinasia: thanks. I will release the version 1.0 soon. However, please don’t expect great changes since I just made small tweaks and fixed the bugs found (in fact I have no time to dedicate to the skin in these days…). Regarding a Mod, I will add a new Mod for the match titlebar scoreboard using only the team logos, result and clock (nothing more) 

 

Andyinasia: regarding the “no attributes” mod, we have to wait for Rich work, since is he who usually edit that version (I have no time to do it).

 

 tomnan: Thanks. Regarding your question, 6scholl6 is asking you about what is the ZOOM (in the game) you are using, since I believe he can help you.

 

 wazza1971: Thanks. Regarding you problem, if you look at the screenshot of the skin you can see that, in that panel, there is much more information. It works well in my game. Thus, try to clear the cache, exit and reload the game. Keep only this skin in the skins folder.

 

 Mortiis: For remove the current ability in that panel, go to yacs information.xml and remove <integer value="PCAB" /> Regarding the kit number, please read the pdf I included explaining how you can edit it.

Hi Flut

 

Apologies my friend if this has already been asked. I was wondering how to change the colour of the coach summary box. 

Thanks once again for the incredible skin, makes the game so much better!

Hi.

I don't know how to change the colour of that box since is controlled by the code id="SMbx" (and also the colour of the text, since is controlled by the code id="SMtx"). Of course you can change them if you delete the ID (and, then you can choose the colour of the box, using red_replacement="the colour you want") but the colour will be always the same (and, now, as you can see, clicking on various players, the colour of the box is changing). However, for solve the problem regarding the black text in a colour that makes it unreadable, I did a trick. Thus, you can download the following files and place them directly in the panels folder of the skin (overwrite the originals). One is for player profile panel and other is for player attributes panel (box: comparison)

Use these files (place them in the human folder of the skin (inside the panels folder of the skin). Don't forget you should reload the game.
