Football Manager 2026 Skins - AlexMorak FM26 Theme/Skin v0.5 - Windows and MacOS Versions - Works with update 26.0.6
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.

    michaelandrews: For now we now that we can change fonts, a korean site did it. I don't know if we can change the size of the text. Try scaling from the preferences. It's an issue of the game, not the theme's. About replacing files don't know why your PC has protection. Maybe you can try with an admin account?

    milenec11: It's difficult to say. Maybe not until SI gives us proper tools, like Archiver.

    Can't copy the file ui-backgrounds_assets_common.bundle. Windows displays a message that I need special permission to move the file.

    Always amazed with the dedication and work all you guys put to increase the Football Manager experience.
    Just to ask if you have been able to edit the original font size, because sometimes the text is cut?
