Hi Flut!

First of all, I really like your Skin-Work! Unfortunately I have a little issue with all 4 (light/dark w/wo DF11):
On the Player-Info-Screen it doesn't save the activated panels for me. that means if I let it show "happyness" and "phisycal", after switching to the next player it shows "form" and "match ratings" again. I deleted and reinstalled the skins, cleared cache... Oh, and I cannot activate the "Bans"-Panel either... it just doesn't do anything when I try to activate it. For now I have to play with a different Skin to see what I like but I really hope I can use your Skins again in the near future 'cause they're awesome!

Oh, and a little off topic:
Is there some "Guide" you can recommend on how to create an FM-Skin in order to understand all the settings in the xml-files? Or is it just try and error?

Thank you so much for your work!

Danny



Hi Danny

Thanks ;-)
Concerning your problem, sometimes it happens and I really don’t know precisely why. I keep in each code the command “save_session_state="true"” in order to maintain the panel we choose, however it seems that sometimes doesn’t work.
Try the following: open the player overview panel.xml (in the panels folder of the skin) and search for all the following code (there are several repeated codes like that in the xml):

default_for_everyone_else="true"

and delete it.

If doesn’t work, find for all codes similar to the following:

default_item="ppsp" - this is only an example; you have to find all codes default_item="......"

after that, look at the codes below and change the id=… ... by the id you want to see as default (for instance ppsp means that the default will be physical panel but if you want “positions” as default you should change ppsp by ppi1)

If after that changes the problem still arise..I really don’t know how to do it.

Concerning “bans”, maybe is due to the fact that “bans” have the same id in the various panels. So you can try to find all the

<widget class="player_bans_overview_panel" id="pbop" late_loading="true">
<translation id="title" translation_id="247569" type="use" value="Bans" />
</widget>


(note that are several in the xml) and change the id in order to not repeat the same id (change id=”pbop” for an other code – for instance “pfff” (doesn’t matter the letters you choose; important is to attribute have different ids to the same panel).

Finally, concerning the skins, you can try to find in the net some sites/forums where you can learn. For instance the skinning hideout http://community.sigames.com/forumdisplay.php/17-Skinning-Hideout

Or the site of Michael Murray

https://sites.google.com/site/michaeltmurrayuk/home

You can learn a little bit there. However in order to deeply understand and learn I think you have to do something similar I did: start by change some details in a panel you choose, look at the effect, change a little bit more etc…In a few weeks you should understand the way as the code is structured and work. In summary, like you said: try and error was for me the best method to learn.

cheers

In the pdf I explain how to remove the boxes and return to the default view.
However, if you want edit the colours of the boxes you have to go to settings.xml, search for the following code, and change the values.


<colour name="unknown attribute background" red="210" green="210" blue="210"/>
<colour name="low attribute background" red="241" green="159" blue="193"/>
<colour name="normal attribute background" red="140" green="193" blue="242"/>
<colour name="good attribute background" red="151" green="191" blue="13"/>
<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="248" green="179" blue="86"/>

Also, if you want change the colour of the numbers, you can edit it in:


<colour name="low attribute" red="250" green="250" blue="250" alpha="140"/>
<colour name="normal attribute" red="250" green="250" blue="250" alpha="200"/>
<colour name="good attribute" red="159" green="220" blue="122"/>
<colour name="excellent attribute" red="122" green="199" blue="75"/>

After the changes you have to exit the game and reload it.

NunoKopio: sorry I didn't understand. You want a overview panel only with that box (kits and result?). Only with one box?

th3answer: I think you have to edit the graphic "paper" in the folder graphics/boxes/subsections/standard (I think if you use a graphic without the blue streak it could be work...)

guytiger: please read the pdf TUTORIAL


davidmn: please read the pdf "how to remove..". That's why I included in the pack (each guy can choose if want the boxes or only the values).

Hi coftaras: sorry but I couldn't understand what you are talking about...

Hi vedran.bukal: I think the better is to change the bar where are the icons (if the icons are black you can use a white bar; if the icons are white you can use a black bar). That's what I did. For that you have to go to client object browser.xml and find the code (this is as it is in the white version 2016)

<!--match actions bar-->
<container class="bordered_box" appearance="boxes/bordered/match/paper8" height="35" diAN="true">

the paper8 is white and you can see the black icons.

Flut is the BEST skin i used ...but
How i can put more than 5 panel in the game such a photo you put that you have 8 panels http://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/images/bYl3GxiG9lYbbzQZwN9pJbw0sB7rErJJ.png


Hi coftaras
Thanks ;-)
Certainly your screen resolution is lower than mine (mine is 1920x1080). that's why you only can see less panels...

Obrigado. Sim, é verdade. Eu, entretanto, já corrigi ontem, só que foi somente depois de fazer o upload da versão da skin, por isso tem, ainda, esse bug...

Hi neochrome. I didn't understand the problem you reported. In DF11 version the space for face is bigger but in the "normal" version is the same as in the previous versions...

Hi max janot: I sopposed your problem is solved. Am I right?

Thanks for your comment flut. Yes, sometimes it works and sometimes not. Sorry, but i didn´t understand what you mean to do in the player overview panel. I´m an amateur in skinning. Does´nt matter. You do a very good job. Go on with it


Thanks vonreichsm!!
I try to tell you that in the player overview panel you can find the code id="ppi1" in various places. Sometimes, the panels don't work because of that (each panel want a id unique). So, you can try to change that repeated ids in order to give it unique ids. I don't know if it works..but you can try it ;-)

Hi flut, thank you very much for fantastic skin again. I´m using it now and have a question to you. Could you explain me, why i can´t see the role and duty in the panel of positions? Thanks for respons.

Hi vonreichsm

Thanks ;-)
Concerning your question, I don't know why it happens. I tested in my game and I think is the same (sometimes it works, sometimes doesn't work). Try to change the code from all the "id=ppi1" in the player overview panel in order to avoid repeat the same id...

Hi vedran.bukal

Is weird. What is the version of the skin you are using? It isn't the current version, because, as you can see, in the White version and also in the dark version we can see the buttons

Hello Flut,

Do you have any idea how I can fix the overlapping that's happening on the player portraits as seen in this screenshot: http://puu.sh/lyGZM/dc760f9da7.jpg ?

I'm using the DF11 Facepack


Hi Qurid

You have to daownload the DF11 version of FlutSkin.

Sorry, my fault. I gave you wrong instructions.

Search for

PLAYER ATTRIBUTES PANEL (in the panels folder of the skin)

<record index="2" id="val " top="1" bottom="2" sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="centre, can_scale" colour="white" style="semi_bold" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper"/>
</record>

Change by

<record index="2" id="val " sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre" right="8">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="right, centre_y" style="semi_bold" multi_line="false"/>

Hi hinbil: In the next version I will include it.

Hi remedylll: Unfortunately the skin works well in 1920x1080 (I said that in the post). I did it for that resolution and some panels with absolute dimensions (and without relative dimensions) don’t work well. Sorry. Concerning the font I used for the player signature, I understand you and I can change the font. However, I think the comic sans is not good because I want a font similar to the manuscript text (the idea is to “simulate” the signature). Have you another suggestion about it?

Hi Neochrome : You’re welcome ;-) In the next version that problem will be solved (the transparency of that boxes will be the same as the others)

Hi Scottpratt
You just have to go to client object browser.xml and change the code

<widget class="picture" file="backgrounds/default" id="lggg">
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="lggg" />
<integer id="set_property" value="pict" />
</record>
</widget>

by this one:


<!-- background picture - covers entire screen -->
<widget class="background" file="backgrounds/default" id="bgnd">
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="bgnd" />
<integer id="set_property" value="file" />
</record>
</widget>

Hi Kingrobbo: I don’t know how to help you sorry. By the way, the first screenshot you put is not from FlutSkin.
Hi neochrome concerning the attributes do the following:

go to PLAYER ATTRIBUTES PANEL1.xml (responsible for player profile panel)
<record index="2" id="val " top="1" bottom="2" sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="centre, can_scale" colour="white" size="12" font="fonts/ProximaNova-Bold1" style="bold" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper"/>
</record>

Change by

<record index="2" id="val " sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre" right="8">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="right, centre_y" style="semi_bold" multi_line="false"/>

Hi Mads 123: I can’t help you because in my game the button is there. Maybe will have a conflict between skins….

@neochrome: to change the colour attributes (the numbers) if you want use different colours from the default, you have to edit it in the settings folder of the skin in

<!-- profile attribute colours -->
<colour name="low attribute" red="250" green="250" blue="250" alpha="140"/>
<colour name="normal attribute" red="250" green="250" blue="250" alpha="200"/>
<colour name="good attribute" red="159" green="220" blue="122" />
<colour name="excellent attribute" red="122" green="199" blue="75" />

@davidmn: Thanks for the reported bug. In fact I noticed that and I already fixed it. It will be okay in the next version of the skin.

Flut, regarding point 1, what i want to know is how can i show the logo there, and the code for the xml.

2- how can i remove the the logos from appear(removing from the panel?)

Thanks


For the first question please read the pdf tutorial (the competition logo, in nation panel, change to nation flag); for the second question, if you delete that code, you also don't have the team logo in player profile).

Chris Kessaris: you can find the square logos in FMIF (an Italian forum). The config, you have to change it as I explain in pdf tutorial.

Respira: thanks ;-). Concerning your questions - 1. I don’t remember where I did the download of round flags megapack. Sorry…2. is not a bug; in fact when you see the player in the nation squad the logo shown is the national logo instead the club logo (this happens because the code for both is the same).

Hi @chaodck I don’t know if I can help you as I can’t see your graphics structure…however the problem is not related to the fact you reported (separate folders).

Hi @Alex13 and @scottpratt
Thanks ;-)
In order to change the atribute background boxes colours you have to go to the settings folder and change the values in the following code

<colour name="unknown attribute background" red="210" green="210" blue="210"/>
<colour name="low attribute background" red="197" green="221" blue="242"/>
<colour name="normal attribute background" red="150" green="198" blue="242"/>
<colour name="good attribute background" red="161" green="193" blue="51" />
<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="117" green="147" blue="13" />

After that you have to exit game and reload it.


Hi @Wescar00: thanks ;-); I don’t know what happens but sometimes, when we change a xml and the code we changed is incorrect (for instance missing “” or there is a > or < in the wrong place) the game show that error. But really I don’t know what happens in your case. Try to read the text of that message in order to know what kind of error is…

Hi @hinbill: Thanks ;-) I don’t know if I understood your answer but if you are talking about the kits in match inbetween highlights, in fact I had no time (yet) to analyse if is possible to do that change and if it works….
