This is the Brechin file, follow the below path to locate the folder. Find the file with the same name and make a copy of it just in case you want to change it back. You will need to quit out of the game while you do this, then reload.

 

Original file name - ui-backgrounds_assets_common.bundle

 

Once you've made a copy of the original, copy and paste the attached file over writing the original. Start the game

 

Here is the SC Farnese one, follow the above, you won't need to make a copy of the original just replace the Brechin file.

 

Hope you're happy with these.

I'm in no way and expert on the new way to create skins. I've been playing about creating a background for the majority of tabs on FM26. I've not played with the pop up boxes and colour changes yet I've only just done the backgrounds. Done these for West Ham and Marseille. I've used the same image but you get the idea. It just adds a little extra to the game. Unfortunately, in order to change the background you have to alter the file in the right folder so if you have a few saves on the go you would need to amend every time. What's your thoughts?

I've tried to download this 3 times now. I get so far through and get a network error even though I'm fully connected all the time. When I try to resume the download it completes straight away and then I cannot open the zip folder. Anyone else getting this?

Hi mate, has anyone reported anything about the stadium brightness when watching in 3d. I've noticed it a few times where it looks like someone's switched off the flood lights. Just wondering if it maybe a bug. I know when I load up FM and your part loads there seems to be a few bits that fail not sure if that's normal or not. Any advice would be awesome TIA

 

**Update - this only seems to happen on some games not all so not a problem.

This is great for the handful of teams that have this colour scheme…if only we could have each team default to it's team colours we'd all be happy. A hope for the future it appears.

 

But great job getting the ball rolling !!

 

Think the way skins/themes are in FM26 not sure that's going to be possible as your physically changing the files within the game to allow changes. I'm with you though it would be a good addition.

Thanks!

 

I wish, but no, I don't think it's possible. Maybe someone with more expertise than me will manage it eventually. But unfortunately, no for now! 

 

Even if you were to clone the voice with AI, it would take too long to generate a sentence; the game would be further along by then. With the current system, we have a delay of 0.5 seconds, and then it would be over 3 seconds.

 

How do you run this and where do you install it?

Love this. is there a way the font can be a little smaller so it fits on the back of the shirt, it's overlapping onto the sleaves

Try clearing the FM cache and reloading the skin (Preferences → Interface → Clear Cache, then Reload Skin). Also double-check the background image path and filename haven’t changed after updates. Updates often overwrite files, so re-applying the edited bundles after each update usually fixes it.

 

Thanks @Brawl Cbr but this is FM26 no 24. There is no reloading of the skin available

I have made a few changes but still plenty to go and more I need to learn before its polished. 

I have attached the 2 files to replace in the StandaloneWindows64 folder

 

this looks great so far well done. Not sure what I've done but I cannot get my background to work anymore. Tried several times to re-do it. Even reset the graphics back to basic and tried but no joy.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone can produce a skin based on the mighty West Ham. I'm looking at stadium backgrounds on most or all screens (can be the same picture) and a claret and blue text theme for the tiles. Not sure how much work is involved. I did give it a go with changing the fm_skin file to a stadium background. It seemed to work initially but when I loaded the game after a few times it had gone so I must have done something wrong. I'm not tech savvy so this is most likely user error. 

 

If this is too much work, are there any tutorials to help for idiots like me?

 

Sorted the background on the main screen, looks like the latest update had removed it. Just not sure what other files I need to update to make all the background pictures appear, and as for the colors on the tiles. Watched a few videos and looks a little out of my comfort zone.

Should be just click on the zip folder, or top right link labelled richmond.2.zip

 

Clicking on the link takes me to another page and not straight to download, however, the download link is now there thanks

I don't understand, you're right too. It doesn't appear to be there either. But when I open the game, it's 240 fps, and when I load the game, it's 60 fps, then it's 30-40 fps in-game. Maybe it's just me, I don't know. I'll try uploading the file again.

 

What camera angle you using, looks loads better than the one I'm using?

You're right

Download the file.

  1. Unzip the file.
  2. Locate the Game Directory: Navigate to your Football Manager installation directory.
    The standard path for Windows is typically:
    \Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64\
     
  3. And for Mac:
    ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX
  4. Locate the original files (SEE ABOVE) in the game's data folder and make a backup copy before proceeding.
  5. Copy and paste the files into the game directory. When asked, choose to overwrite/replace the existing files.

 

Thanks buddy
