The flat skin that full FM implements is very modern, very up to date with current graphic design trends. I think FMC would benefit from having a skin similar to that. The current one is sadly inferior in terms of design, and very off putting when you see how nice full FM looks.

I'm agree with having the simplicity for the casual user, but it needs to keep up to date with current trends. Blocky just isn't nice sadly.


I would perhaps agree with you in past versions, but this versions skin I updated to be flat and more modern.

Anyway, each to their own, I'm obviously biased but value the feedback to improve future versions.

As Crane says, it's very blocky.

I understand it's a streamlined version of FM full, but it doesn't mean that it has to be visually inferior to full mode. The full mode skin has advanced so much in recent years, just because Classic mode is streamlined it doesn't mean the skin has to be poor in comparison to full.

I don't think there's even a dark mode option is there? There isn't much support for Classic mode either I don't think.


Well obviously the aim isn't to create something inferior. It is to create something simplified and more graphical. It's designec for the more casual user.

The blocks around the attributes, for example are designed to enable the user to quickly gauge a players ability via the colour coding.

There is now a dark skin, availble via the Steam Workshop.

To people slating the FMC skin, what in particular are your issues? Too bright?

Are the images displayed in the FMC skin using the same config as stadium backgrounds from previous games? I've got some stadium packs to test some stuff, but none of them want to show up anywhere.

Slightly different.

In the XML, it's 'stadium' instead of 'background' at the end of the line.

Should all work correctly for release. They will appear on the Information screen, Pre-match, behind the logos on the Next Match section of the processing panel and as article photos in the news website.

Make sure these stadium photos are PNG's, not Jpegs, or else it will causes them to become jagged and bad quality when scaled.

Also, they look better with a 1 pixel darkened edge to them.
