Cant get it to work.
Placed it in the skins folder. Tried to clear cache. Tried "reinstall it". Tried closing and open FM. Nothing just the skin "football manager classis" skin.
I'm getting frustrated and just want to be able to start using this awesome skin!

Im on a Mac but looked through the thread and doesnt seem to be a problem for others, what the friggin f am I doing wrong?


Asnom,

Don't get frustrated. It's happened to me on Windows too.
3 things:

1) This skin will not work on "Classic" mode, but I'm sure you know that already.
2) I have no experience with Mac.
3) The solution I have for you works with Windows, but I believe you'll find its equivalent in Mac systems.

IF...you were running on a Windows 7 machine and you had this problem you would:

- Open My computer, then C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME]
- Now click on "Organize" and select "Folder and search options"
- Click the "View" tab
- Look in the "Advanced settings" section and find "Hidden files and folders"
- Select "Show hidden files, folders, and drives"
- Click OK and close the window.

- There is a new folder named "AppData" visible in the folder
- Open it, then select "Local"
- Once you open the "Local" folder, find the folder named "Sports Interactive" and DELETE IT!
- Close the folder and reset the folders back to hidden views.

For some reason, this folder locks out the skin. That's why you can't see it.
Don't worry, it doesn't remove your saved games or anything. What it does do, however, is make you agree to the "user agreement" again. If you added your picture for your coaching profile, you'll have to load it again.

Hopefully, you will be able to correlate this to the Mac system. Hopes this helps.
