For some reason it's not showing up for me. I've done everything as normal but when I go to select skin it just doesn't appear. All my other graphics work fine. Aby idea why this might be happening?

Decided to do a refresh of my logos, Downloaded the complete pack, deleted everything else I had and installed the new ones. Now I have no logos. What am I doing wrong?

I suspect it's a config issue. Download the most recent update pack and install it. Not only will it have the most recent and correct config, but you'll also get some more backgrounds to boot 👍

I did but I can try installing it again. Is that the correct folder?

Let's have screenshots of the location you've installed it in please 👍

Hope this is enough, if not just let me know what else you need 👍

Hi all. Can anyone offer me some advice please? I have installed this pack along with lots of other graphics. But for some reason this doesn't work whilst everything else does, facepacks, logos, skins, all fine, but backgrounds just don't load.
What can I do?

Where should I place the new Config file? In each folder? In the main backgrounds folder? Can't seem to get them working

The below is what mine looks like
--user_data_location="E:\FM user data"
Yours seems to be missing the two dashes at the start and possibly the quotation marks at the end.

@McG84, that is how the default skin displays images at the moment and doesn't have anything to do with this specific pack. I'm sure that in the coming days/weeks skins will be released to allow us to enjoy the full benefit of this pack 🙂

That's awesome, it's working now. The backgrounds still don't seem to be working but eveything else is

Can I actually see a screenshot of the launch options in Steam?

As for your second screenshot, I'm not sure the panels folder ought to be there but possibly in the location of the first folder, but I don't believe that should stop the graphics from displaying. Also, for your second screenshot, can I see a screenshot with the folder path it's in as shown in the first screenshot?

This should be what you asked for. Couldn't fit the whole launch options into 1 shot

Screenshots of the location you've installed your graphics, what files you're talking about and a screenshot of your Steam launch options may help us assess where the issue may be.

Here are the launch options

Hi Guys

any idea why the graphics won't load? I have them saved in a different drive to what FM expects but I changed the launch options on Steam to the make it find the correct drive. But still nothing

Thanks

These files are installed within the Steam folder. If Steam is installed on your C drive, then there is nothing to do but uninstall it from here and reinstall it elsewhere.

If it's your user data folder that you want to change (i.e. where your save games, skins, graphics, editor data etc.), then simple steps on how to do so can be found here

That's perfect, exactly what I wanted. Steam is on that drive but for some reason it was looking elsewhere

may sound like a daft question but how do I get FM to look somewhere other than C: for these files if I have them elsewhere? My C: drive is a separate SSD drive that I use purely for startup.

Ok, well to be honest you're really going to struggle to get much for that kind of money, if you can save a little more to something like £400-£500 you will be able to get a fairly decent PC.

Apologies for revisiting this late on but have casting the net

Would this do the job? Don't need high spec as I only really use my PC for FM, internet and word processing

Hi, hope this is the right forum for this.

Having had my current desktop PC for a few years I was considering an upgrade. The release of FM 202 has made up mind as it just won't support it.
So my question is can anyone recommend me a good, budget (say £200-£250) PC that would be suitable

Thanks

Yes you need Windows to be 64bit to play this year.

Hi all. Looking at the possibility of upgrading my graphics card before the release of FM19 and to improve my FM18 experience

I'm running a Dell Optiplex 755 with a 2.4GHZ quad core processor, 4 GB RAM and around 115GB of spare HDD space

My graphics card is an AMD Radeon HD 540 (low profile).

Is it worth an upgrade and if so can anyone recommend some good, reasonably priced cards? (Based in the UK)

Thanks

A bit of a silly question perhaps but

I have no idea which packs I have and which I don't. Having just bought FM16 is it worth me waiting for 8.01 and just downloading the full pack and then I will have them all?
