It’s a bug within the game, this use to only happen with super cup finals in previous versions, but in FM20 the match engine treats all matches at a neutral venue as a home/away game.

There where numerous requests to include banners in the no clubs ads xml so that flags would still be shown in Champions Leagues games etc. The only solution would be a 3rd xml file giving us, clubs ads, no club ads and fan/ultra banners only...

I’ll report the issue as a bug on the SI forums later on and provide a link so others can also flag the issue

try this one i thinks its the one you want

Sweet! Thanks, I hadn't heard about that.

No idea mate I’m pretty clueless when it comes to macs in all honesty, hope you get it sorted though

Looks like a hardware issue trying installing the latest driver for your graphics card, failing that’s try renaming the ‘HD’ folder in which the video ads are kept ‘SD’

Hi! Is this the issue you're talking about?

@stevemc
Okay I've just used your W.I.P. base skin to enable custom backgrounds (found on SI's official forums), and now everything is much better for me. Finally I can see the board room, the dressing room, the manager in the start menu, the manager in the "add manager" page... although everything with that dark overlay that bothers also the 3D match engine. (Link with pic of example). A big step forward for me. Now I'll wait for the final solution, to get rid of this overlay.

I know in previous versions of FM neutral ads would show for most cup finals with the charity shield and similar 'super cup' competitions begin the exception, as for some reason FM never regarded them as being a neutral march, I'm not sure if this has changed in FM19, it is possible to switch between the clubs and no clubs xml without exiting FM which would guarantee cup specific adboards in a final.

This already happens with this patch, or do you mean with different competitions such as the Champions and Europa League?

Thanks for the above, I've got both static and video adboards working now

I'm having a minor issue with the video adboards in that these are constantly stuck on the 'SkySports' adboard throughout PL games and then the first Europa League one during EL games. The adboards are working and the various animations happening (e.g. the Skysports one changes to say 'best place for PL football) but they never switch to the other video adboards in the folder such as BT, Premier League logo, Vitality etc.. or in the EL case the Amstel, fair play ones etc..

Anyone had anything similar? I'm not sure if it is an issue with how long the video adboards are set to display? I've even tried this through extended highlights and it'll still stay on the same adboard.

So you use the No Club fm.xml file?

Also the static club banners?

what about this line? <string id="log_level" value="all"/>

Here is a video how can you block a program to access internet in Mac https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFO_D9ltUOk

The arrangement with Sports Interactive gives bidstack exclusive access to native in-game advertising for six of the 12 available billboards in the 2018 version. The remaining six will continue to display existing advertising that was 'hard wired' into the game at launch in November 2017. bidstack will have exclusive access to 11 of the 12 billboards in the 2019 and 2020 releases

This the reply back from sports interactive when I reported it as a big

Hi @Jeff44,

Jack is taking some well earned holiday, so apologies that he hasn't responded to your message. In regards to your issue, you should have the option in the preferences screen to click yes or no for "Targeted advertising".

My reply back was I have done that and still they come through I've had no reply back again
