Football Manager 2026 Skins - AlexMorak FM26 Theme/Skin v0.7 - Windows and MacOS Versions - Works with update 26.1.1
This is the first customized theme/skin for Football Manager 26. Say goodbye to the majority of the game’s purple and blue colors. I have also included a new background and new gold UI highlight colors.

Versions and Optional Files:

  • MAC COMPUTERS: With the help of GlasgowAirport, who plays the game on a Mac computer, we achieved to make the files not crash the game when played on Macs. You only just have to select the files that's inside the folder "Mac Version". What we did was, that he send me the files of the game on a Mac computer (that are slightly different than a Windows computer) and I remade the skin using these files for all of you that are playing on a Mac.
  • BACKGROUNDS: Unfortunately, due to the way this year’s game works, we can’t have different backgrounds per screen. However, the game does use different backgrounds for licensed competitions (Premier League, EFL competitions, Bundesliga, UEFA competitions, etc.), which appear before matches in those competitions.
    If you want to see only the main background I’ve chosen, or you prefer to keep dynamic backgrounds only for UEFA competitions, I’ve included some optional files you can use.

Disclaimer:

  • At the moment, this year’s themes/skins are created differently from previous versions, and we cannot modify or interfere with the UI. Therefore, I cannot accept requests to change specific elements of it.
  • Additionally, because the game is frequently updated and these updates often affect the files we use, there will be regular updates to this theme/skin. On top of that, we’re constantly experimenting to discover how to change and improve more aspects of the game’s visuals.
  • If you already have my theme/skin and want to install a newer version, sometimes cached files can cause issues. Please first Verify Files from Steam by right-clicking the game → Properties → Installed Files → Verify integrity of game files, restart Steam or even your computer and then install the new version of my theme/skin.

How to install the AlexMorak Theme/Skin:


  1. Download the file.

  2. Unzip the file.

  3. Locate the Game Directory: Navigate to your Football Manager installation directory.
    The standard path for Windows is typically:
    \Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64\
    And for Mac:
    ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX
  4. Before first time locate the original files in the game's data folder and make a backup copy before proceeding. You should see from my files, which files you have to make a backup copy.

  5. Copy and paste the files into the game directory. When asked, choose to overwrite/replace the existing files.

    @jackpars777 they are just black/blank backgrounds
  • jackpars777's avatar
    cheers Alex -what is the difference from them?
  • alexmorakgaming's avatar
    @jackpars777 you use and replace these 2 files over the others. The same with the other folders. if you don't like them just use the "main" files again.

    Any update for Hotfix 26.1.1 on the horizon? please. Thanks.
  • alexmorakgaming's avatar
    @Peter Lund Jensen as the installation instructions say, you replace the files. the folders are different version, read the txt files.
  • Peter Lund Jensen's avatar
    Do you need all the files in the folders too or can you just put the folders in?
  • wojtas12345's avatar
    Overall, the game runs well with mods and has no issues. I was just asking for information. Thanks.

    @wojtas12345 Sadly no, we cannot do that now and I don't know if we can anytime soon. The game is less dynamic than previous years, so in laptops and etc don't play well.
  • wojtas12345's avatar
    Thanks for the update!

    It cuts off some windows on the laptop. There were skin versions of FM 24 for laptops. Is there even an option to do that now?

    @wojtas12345 what do you mean laptop version? we don't change anything on UI, it's the same game for everyone.
  • wojtas12345's avatar
    Hello. Are you planning on making a laptop version? This is a really cool skin!
  • alexmorakgaming's avatar
    The plan is to update the theme for working with Patch 4 (version 26.1.0) in the weekend. Thanks!

    @MR11 Το U??? Δεν το ξέρω το συγκεκριμένο shortcut, για να πας στο επόμενο αδιάβαστο πας είτε με το Space είτε με τα βελάκια. Παρόλα αυτά όχι δεν επηρεάζουν την λειτουργία του παιχνιδιού μερικές δεκάδες αλλαγές στα χρώματα.

    @Shaunessy1983 you have only commentary, change it to highlights (key, extended, comprehesive etc) to see them, that's the way the game works.

    On my match day screen when watching the game I dont have the players on the tactic board (Middle of screen as per your last screenshot) moving around the pitch. I just have the home and away colours. I am using your skin.

    @Dax and everyone else that requests UI changes. We CANNOT MAKE UI CHANGES. Even if we find a way, it's not worth it, every week we need 4-5 hours to remake the color changes only.

    @SoA_McClure My bundles don't have problems and crashes, on windows are tested by me so if you play on windows check whatever else mod you have installed. If you are playing on macos, I find the files from a macos computer and make them accordingly. Probably in the next one or two version I'll stop supporting my files for macos because I cannot test something that I make and it's not in my character.
  • SoA_McClure's avatar
    Still getting crash dumps after installing not sure what is going wrong. Even after verifying files on steam. Latest update of the skin and game, but the second I load up the game and click anything the game just dumps. :(

    Hi @alexmorakgaming is there any possibility to visualize in the player's pages their CA and PA? Not 100% if this is about the skin. Thanks in case.
  • alexmorakgaming's avatar
    @lfeiyee91 nope.
