Well that's interesting. The border is nowhere as thick for me. Probably something to do with the 125% zoom and 1440p monitor again. Seems that while all panels and stuff are mroe or less equal to the size of 1080p @ 100%, the graphics are often different.

Hey Wannachupbrew, could you please make the tactic board in the manager overview a little smaller so that the position marks therein will look less blurry? You did this also for the stadium picture so that it now looks much more pretty

It's not blurry for me I agree that it could be a little smaller though, because an extra panel could be added below it. Even with the current size there's plenty of room below the tactics panel to add extra info.

No skins are showing up for me even though I've got them in the skins folder? any help? Haha


If you are using the beta skin you have to rename the folder from Scorpio-beta to Scorpio. Make also sure that you the Scorpio folder inside another Scorpio folder. In your skin folder you should have a folder called Scorpio and insde that folder you should have folders called fonts, graphics, panels and settings.

And if you are using the download button on the first page it will download the 1.7 version of the skin, which is not compatible with FM 15.2 without modifying the config file. You can find a guide to do it from this thread.

Another thing I think would be improvement would be having the selected row in club page, side panel and when selecting the tone for team/media talks. Here's what I mean:

Especially when selecting the tone it's very hard to see what tone is selected with the current skin. If you are interested of adding this to your skin then add the following to the settings file and change the values to whatever you prefer. I used the same values you used for the starting squad picking buttons:

<!-- Tables -->
<colour name="filled_row_alternate" red="0" green="0" blue="0"/> <!-- Filled alternate row - red_replacement -->
<colour name="filled_row_selected" red="40" green="100" blue="140"/> <!-- Filled selected row - red_replacement -->

You also need to put this files to the graphics folder:

Nevermind. I got it working and it was just me being stupid. I have two scorpio skins and one of them is called Scorpio-beta, which is 1.7b with some modifications and then just Scorpio, which is the latest one from you. I modified one skin and was using another lol. So it works flawlessly now thanks!

It's not visible in Darrell's group skin. I actually tried his match panels but it didn't change anything so the value is somewhere else. I noticed that the top panel is smaller in his skin so maybe that has something to do with it. Let's investigate!

Your screenshot is not from the same situation. In your screenshot the top panel is visible and in mine it's hidden. It shows just fine when I mouseover it, but when it goes hidden it leaves the bottom of the panel visible. And all my stuff is in 1440p with 125% zoom, but this is only a problem with this skin and I can't recall it being there on the 1.7 and before. I remember someone else having a similar problem before with some skin and there was some inset or offset value to change. I just can't remember which one and I could find the setting from the files either

I also noticed that in a match window the top bar doesn't get completely hidden. Here's a screenshot of it:

Okay I tested it out without any zoom level and the regen faces are the same size in your default panels too. I'm playing on 1440p screen at 125% zoom so I apologize. For the most part everything works identically to a 1080p @ 100%, but for some parts there's differences it seems. So you can add the fixed v1.12 panel if you wish since it does no harm to 1080p users (changes nothing), but is a big help for us at 125% zoom. The 180 profile you can just skip, because it changes the look of the profile panel for all, which is not ideal. Or you can add that as an additional download too for anyone preferring to use that profile view with zoom on.

Or you can just have it as an additional file for those who prefer to run their games zoomed. Or you can just not include it at all if you think there's not enough high resolution users who are using the zoom feature. I can easily just fix it for myself regardless

Are those changes you listed in your last post from 1.8b v1 to 1.8b v2 or does that list include all the previous changes from 1.7 to 1.8b also?

EDIT: I'll fix the 40x40 scout report icons for you in just a bit. It requires a bit of work because you can't just resize them, because they would end up looking as bad as they did before. You'll be able to include them in 1.8.

EDIT 2: Here are the 40x40 icons:

This is what a player face looks like:
http://s25.postimg.org/scopn55q3/Screenshot_2014_12_15_13_51_06.jpg

This is what a regen face looks like by default and as you can see it's a lot smaller than the regular face. That's because the regen faces are not 180x180 by default like the MP cuts are and your original panel doesn't have scaling on:
http://s25.postimg.org/8w8leczzv/Screenshot_2014_12_15_13_56_10.jpg

This is what it looks like with my fix and as you can see it's now scaled to 180x180, which is the same size as the MP cuts:
http://s25.postimg.org/ujxjot0e3/Screenshot_2014_12_15_13_56_52.jpg

And the regen faces are also bigger in the 180 panel, but to do it I had to change the height of the panel from 200px to 180px so I could use the scaling (otherwise all faces would scale to 200x200px). If that 180 profile had a different panel layer for the kit and for the face like you have for the logo and the face in v1.12 no kit it could be done without touching the height of the kit panel.

Excellent Skin, however the "Last Starting 11" view (3rd screenshot in the above) does not show the players names for me.

It shows the formations, however where the players names should be - it's just a blank black box.

Any ideas? This is for all 3 versions (Scorpio, DF11 and Small Sidebar)

Edit: Uploaded screenshot of a random team in my league: https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/V12d1VkEGNLJPg7yrJHsmGwpWelVqlDm6QH94qyM.jpg

It's the same for every team....

This are not the panels from 1.8 beta. Download the 1.8b and make a clean install of it and it should work just fine. Additionally you can go to your panels folder and open the "club overview panel.xml" in a notepad. Then search (ctrl+F) for Last Starting 11 and two lines below it you can see the following

icon_flags="use_player_kits_back,drop_initial_if_possible,show_number">

Add a show_name value to it so it looks like this:

icon_flags="use_player_kits_back,drop_initial_if_possible,show_number,show_name">

Then save the file and reload your skin.

Great work on the Beta version. Finally i got the skin to appear. But one question; The backgrounds is not visible. http://bildr.no/view/Mzd5UVZT as the picture in the link shows, the background is behind that black "window", if I can call it that. How do I make the black "window" disappear?


It definitely doesn't have any extra layers for me. Did you delete any previous scorpio skins before changing to this? Overwriting the existing folder could cause such problems.

Okay I figured out why the league position in the club view doesn't match rest of the text there (as you can see in lokoys screenshot). In club overview panel.xml change the colour value of position from "selection" to "selection" like it's for rest of the text there. Such a small thing makes such a big difference

And to spam the threat a little more I'd also suggest you to change the height of the top panel in the second column from the right in Club Profile view. It's of course a matter of personal taste, but those shirts begin to looks rather blurry when the panel is that big and at least in my opinion it looks better when all three rows have the same height. Simply change the default height from -4 to -3 under <!--snapshot selector 1--> in club overview panel.xml. I'm sorry to spam the thread, but I just notice this things as I play and the skin is so close to be perfect for my taste that I like to share my opinion!

Hi Jubez, thanks for your reply. I dont't think this has anything to do with the background, can you please take a look:


That's your teams kit colour. When its one solid color it can look very bad I agree and I just edited my last post with a guide to remove it. I'd recommend you using the <!-- and --> around the code because the kit color on the background looks rather nice with most of the teams and it's then easy to turn back on later if you play with another team.

It shows the club kit colors on the background in club overview. Your team's color is probably red with no stripes or anything so it would just show as a solid red. If you want to remove it then open "club overview details panel.xml" in the panel folder and add the bolded bit or just remove this part of the code:

<!-- kit style background image -->
<!-- <widget class="picture" id="ktbg" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="false" image_alignment="top, left" file="graphics/pictures/kit/back">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0"/>

<!-- set kit 'background' logo -->
<record id="object_property">
<integer id="get_property" value="ktgb"/>
<integer id="set_property" value="file"/>
</record>
</widget> -->

It tells the game not to use that part of the code, but it still remains in the file if you later want to turn it on. To turn it back on just remove the <!-- and -->

I also fixed the stat panel. I see you have fixed it so it shows the average rating for keepers too, but the Con/90 title text at top of the panel is not completely visible. To fix that I increased the width of that one column and it's now 9% wider than the rest to be exact, but you can't really see it and as a trade off the Con/90 is now visible in full:

It looks fantastic and I'm so glad you went for the rounded borders! I'm definitely gonna use this now (with a little bit of customization of course!).The images in scout report are not very well done though. They are not completely circle and I fixed them for myself some time ago, but they are 30x30 px instead of 40x40 px that you are using. The original images cannot be just resized becuse there's empty room around the image and you reduce the size it adds some extra pixels around the image so they are not perfect circles anymore. You have to crop the image first so there's no empty space around it and then downscale it.

Here's the 30x30 images if you want to use them. If you prefer the 40x40 I could probably do them for you so you don't have to use those ugly images in the report card. I'd suggest you to try the 30x30 version though, because at least in my opinion it looks much better.

EDIT: Another thing I've been trying to fix is the color of your league position on the club page. I just can't figure out how to change it, but if you can sort it out it would be a great addition. Nitpicking I know, but just something to do if you find a way to do it.

I also see you didn't fix the player profile panel for regen faces. The regen faces are still a lot smaller than any other face. I sent you a PM how to fix it earlier.

EDIT 2:
Here are the fixed profile panels. V1.12 no kit looks identical apart from regen faces now properly scaling to same size as other pictures. With the 180px version with shirt I had to reduce the container height to 180px so I could use the picture scaling. By having a different layer for the shirt and the face this could probably be sorted much like with the v1.12 no kit. So at least the fix for v1.12 should be included and then concider the other one too after checking how it looks to you.

I'm not telling this because current MP image is my work,but "new" one...?!Crap source will always give crap cut,with all due respect to Jubez.Here is new one from Mons source
http://www.dodaj.rs/f/1z/NO/4smwisAa/29114969.png


Well I just think that the completely washed out colors destroy the cut. But that doesn't really matter anymore since your new cut from mons' source is way better than either one of them

I disagree. Nothing wrong with the cut as such, but the source is simply too small and leads to a cutout which is not very sharp and lacking detail...


You can't even talk about details or sharpness when looking at the old picture, but you'll make the call in the end. In my opinion it's an improvement.

EDIT: I actually think it's even a rather good improvement. And I changed the cut in my post. It's a little better than the one you quoted.

NOTE TO MONS! This is an improvement over the one I included in the Athletic team pack which I posted earlier today. I just realized that in the team pack he had light brown hair due to some odd red hue so I fixed it.

I was about do to a pack of Athletic Club players, but NiceLad kindly told me that he had already done such a pack not a long time ago, but some of the cuts didn't get released. I checked through the cuts and found out that many of them had a little bit washed out colors due to bad contrast and some were tilted. I fixed the contrast for the cuts that needed it and generally improved any cut in need of it. I only included the improvements in this pack and I also included the three cuts I did in the improvement thread. Most of this images are from the same sources as the current cuts, but has the red/orange tint removed and generally better colors..

Has anyone else noticed that the bar colours in the action zone screen and some statistic circles have changed from red and white to red and blue? And when going to events/reminders there's a blue bar at top of the square of the current date and I can't remember it being there before (not blue anyway!). I wonder how are we able to change those. I've been looking through the new files but I'm just banging my head to the wall.

EDIT: Okay it seems that it's related to team colours. Noticed it after I changed my save for a moment. I still wonder if it's possible to manually set the colours though.

I did a full team pack not long ago, some of the cuts have been left out of the MP even tho they are improvements

Athletic Club Bilbao



Some of them have bad or washed out colors. I'll check them all tomorrow and color fix anything in need of that and release the improvements.

I don't get it. My side panel has never been transparent and instead it picks the team color and then I hear that they should be transparent... What the hell am I doing wrong here

EDIT: Nevermind.. If i just sometimes booted the game when playing with the skins it would probably work...
