@Appy_Ammer - Yes, there is a flat option in the FM23 pattern files too (I've had a look through the resource archiver too) but I don't know how you'd apply that only to the synthetic pitches. You could take all the others out and only be left with the 'flat' one, but it would then be on all pitches. Makes you wonder why it's there as an option though if it doesn't apply to the synthetic pitches because I'm yet to see it on any pitch as yet!

@Lord Duffucus and @Fez007 - I was following the SI forum discussion and wandered over here. I used the Resource Archiver to look at fm2017 pitch textures and compare them with the file here. I noticed that in the patterns folder there is a 'flat.dds', this would appear to give the 3G synthetic pitch you're looking for as that is the only one without a pattern BUT... I haven't a clue where the file is that corresponds with that dds file. Is it hard coded? If we knew where that is then I guess you'd get the desired pitch effect you're after.

@Fez007 - Yes, I'm sure it's not straightforward! Thanks. SI used to not put patterns on the 3G pitches but for some reason they do now. In real life, any patterns get flattened out as soon as anyone starts playing on them! Thanks for looking into it - I know some people on the SI forums have found ways of doing their own patterns so in theory, having no patterns should be do-able but I'm no expert in these things!

@ Lord Duffucus, I wish it were basic. I've just started a game with Livingstone from Scottish Premier. They have synthetic turfs and yes should not have patterns. May not be possible to remove them but will look into it.
Lord Duffucus • 2 months ago

@Fez007 - Hundreds of clubs have them - the 3G surfaces is what I mean. I figured that if the texture was changed at source then it would show on all 3G pitches accordingly? Basically just needs the patterns taking off really to make it look more realistic so you know that's what you're playing on. Thanks for the reply.

@Lord Duffucus, I haven't touched the synthetic textures but if you can tell me which clubs have them I can look into it.
Lord Duffucus • 2 months ago

Hi Fez - Could you do a texture for the synthetic pitches that doesn't have any patterns/lines? They don't tend to IRL so it would me more realistic if synthetic pitches were just one solid colour, like they used to be on FM until a year or two ago? Just makes it that bit more realistic. Love your work, thanks.

@Fez007
Indeed. It finally worked...don't know what happened.
Thank you for your answer and for this addon !
Fez007 • 3 months ago

@Fared.
The download link is working fine. Just tested it, maybe check your security settings.

For information, the download link seems like it doesn't work anymore...
Got this message :

Luke_Shaw • 5 months ago

Thanks Fez007: i hope you have more time and work on Update for Turf Files.. Thanks for your Time and Work! Cheers
Edit: my wish is, that is possible to edit stadiums, then we have more realiistic stadiums, but i think, that never happened.
( to edit audio files: chants, tunnel anthems, and so on..)

May work on the winter grass texture when I have more time.
Fez007 • 6 months ago

Update: small change to wintery pitch, image below. Very difficult to add white to the grass, as it looks grey in game.

You might need to update the snow pitch texture as it looks like a ice rink
Fez007 • 6 months ago
