It is a great skin and in particular,I like that the dark grey veil has been removed in order for stadium backgrounds to show. Just a quick query on this point. Can the grey veil also be removed to show the stadium background when a match is in progress?

The section in red is the mistake.

remove this folder "clubadboards" so move the fm file to the ads folder like below

My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/ads/fm

Below was from the instructions listed in this thread on how to install, as you can see this is the part you failed to do.

5. Decide if you want to use the 'Club adboards' or 'no club adboards' once you have decided copy and paste the fm.xml file from 'club adboards' or 'no club adboards' folder to the ads folder you created earlier

Cheers mate, that has helped.

I can now see ad boards featuring Castrol, Coca Cola, Subaru etc. Mind you there are still some default Football Manager and Movember ads showing. I will try and get a screen print so you can see them . I am trying to use club ads at the moment for Strasbourg.

Edited to add. Much the same as Cloughie's pic in the post above.

Installation

Q. How do I install the Adboard Patch?

PC
1. Extract the contents of the rar folder to your desktop.

2. Move the ads folder to the following directory: My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/graphics/pictures. This will now give you the following directory: My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/graphics/pictures/ads

3. Open up the My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015 folder and create a new folder called 'ads' giving you the following directory My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/ads

4. Move the 'Club adboards' and 'no club adboards' folder from your desktop to a new directory you make in My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/ (The name doesn't matter)

5. Decide if you want to use the 'Club adboards' or 'no club adboards' once you have decided copy and paste the fm.xml file from 'club adboards' or 'no club adboards' folder to the ads folder you created earlier

Make sure that the ads & pictures folder names are in lower case

6. Open up FM15 and access the in game preferences menu.

7. Go to the 'display' tab and untick 'use skin cache'
tick 'reload skin on confirm'
untick 'clicking on an ad board takes you to its owners website'
Go to the 'general' tab and set size of text & images to 100% (if not already)
Confirm these changes

8. Reload FM15 and enjoy

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am having some problems getting the ad boards to appear. The FM defaults are still showing and I would be grateful if you can help out.

Currently I have the ads saved using the following file path:

1) - My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/Graphics/Pictures/ads - In this file I have all the ad files such as south america, worldwide, oceania etc.

I made another file for the config files and the directory is listed below:

2) My Documents /Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2015/ads/clubadboards/fm

After doing all this I loaded up the game and followed the steps you detailed above, however, they do not load up.

Go to the 'display' tab and untick 'use skin cache'
tick 'reload skin on confirm'
untick 'clicking on an ad board takes you to its owners website'
Go to the 'general' tab and set size of text & images to 100% (if not already)
Confirm these changes

Reload FM15

I'm sure there is probably something simple I am missing here but I can't think what. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers in advance.

Slight technical hitch. I have tried to download the update each night this week and it always crashes about the 50% downloaded mark. Normally I would download again but the free mirror site tells me I have exceeded my download limit. Can anyone suggest a work around?

Thanks in advance.

Put this over on SI forums as well Tom...wondered if you knew what to select to help us...it's not really about the skin, but the pitch that shows when on classic view during a match...

I usually watch the match on only commentary with just the team stats showing, often clicking around some of the other screens - just played first match and all the time was a static background of the pitch and player dots - no idea which option to select (I tried a few) to remove it so that it just had the plain background (the grey one that you can select with the skin). I have the grey background selected from the cog menu, it's just this flippin pitch background that came up during the match and it spoilt the skin a bit.

I'm going to keep investigating and I'm sure I can get rid of it...just wondered if anyone knew what to select to make it disappear.

I'm having a similar problem and like youself I like having just the commentary on display, with full screen replay popping up when a goal is scored. At the moment the screen is split into four sections with the pitch in the background. I'm sure there is a way to remove these four sections (when a match is being played) but for the life of me I can't seem to get rid of them. Any help would be appreciated.

As always the skin is looking good .

However, like a couple of other people have mentioned once loaded my other graphic files such as logos and player pictures have disappeared. I'm sure it will be something simple that I'm missing.

Anyway, great work Tom
