@Footygamer Some complaints about licensed kits disappearing after applying SS' kits mega pack in this thread. I know it is an issue, but I don't know why and if it is something we are working on or planing to fix at all 🤷‍♂️

 

I actually found out why!


The thing is that you guys let the lines in the config.xml for the clubs already having a kit in the initial version of the game (thanks to the licensed leagues and teams), without providing the kit visual file in the pack's folder. I assume you took the FM 23 config.xml that you've created last year and pasted it, without adding the new kits corresponding, inside the FM 24 kits pack. You'll find an example of what I'm trying to explain here in attachments. I use the same example from my last posts with Dundee (ID: 1555).

As you can see in the screenshot attached, the only “1555” to be found in the pack's folder is in the .xml file.


In a nutshell: There is no kit visual file provided for this club inside the pack's folder, but its ID is listed in the .xml file as if there actually was one.
 

I'm taking the opportunity here to give my apologies for the last enquiries: it was my mistake, I didn't read the .xml file as it should have been read and I said some false statements (such as declaring that the file was done badly, whereas I was reading it badly). I hope you'll excuse me for this and I hope this post will help you to find a solution for the next updates. Last but not least, thanks a lot for your awesome work.

Well there is nothing wrong with the config. The away, home, and third part of the config line is so the game know where to put the file in game… nothing to do with the folder the images are in. Where have you put the folder? are you sure you got the full file (check to see if the kits missing in game also have a image in the folder)

 

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Ok, that's great to read. I put it in the folder kits (that I created) inside the graphics' one. I think I do since I downloaded the megapack, as you can see with the link I shared in my last post in our conversation.
There's still a problem though: for instance, the whole Scottish football league is under license in FM24, so the kits are initially the real ones in the game (without any add-on). But when I put the SS kits megapack in the kits folder, almost none of the Scottish football league teams keep their initial kits: they actually get a standard kit, as for the teams without license in the game. You'll see an example with Dundee in attachments of this post. Can you see where the problem is?
It goes the same for Japan teams, German ones, etc. All the licensed leagues, at the end of the day.

Could you post a screenshot of the config in question? what exactly did you download?

 

Sure I can, you'll find the screenshot of the config right here: https://imgur.com/a/AwgVZE1 (same file in attachments, as you want)

As you can see on the screenshot, the visuals aren't sorted in the folder as they should be, according to the xml file. The xml file says that visuals should be listed per folders of team, folders of home, away, third, etc. Am I wrong? In any case, this pack doesn't work at my place and a lot of clubs don't have their kits.

 

I downloaded the FM24 SS kits through this link: https://sortitoutsi.net/media/2917061/download that leads to the file to download there: https://getfiles.co.uk/download/2917061?ip=92.184.96.184&user=245125

 

Do you know if there is a solution ?

after installing ss kits, kits that already came with the game have disappeared how do i sort this i know its an easy fix but have not had this issue before? 

 

Same for me. Actually, the XML file is done badly. It is written as if kits were sorted in three different folders (home, away and third) but it actually isn't. So, the game can't find the actual kits, since they aren't organized as written in the config.xml. Is there any correction planned for the future?
