FM 2016 Skins - FM 2016 FLUT dark skin v2.3
FM 2016 FLUT dark skin v2.3

Dark skin for FM 2016 regular career mode and widescreens (1920x1080).

Well, I know I said that the version 2.2 of FlutSkin was the last version for this season (FM16). However, I already should know that the edition of a skin is a “never ending story”…
Thus, I'm pleased to present you the version 2.3 of FLUTSkin Dark for FM16.


Once again, thanks to all FM fans and especially to all of the fantastic FM skinners who contribute a lot to produce the FLUTSkin as it is today since FM 2013.


  • Compatible with DF11, Scope and Cutout Faces.
  • Compatible with Backgrounds (however, some of them will not be shown, instead, the citypics will be displayed).

Released: 29 August, 2016


Resolution requirements
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 full screen mode. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).


The changes (some of them are just minor changes) in this version are in the following panels:

  • Stadium Overview Panel
  • Game Processing
  • Calendar Popup Panel
  • Club General Panel
  • Nation General Panel
  • Team Report Panel
  • Manager Home Panel


IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. In this pack I included a TUTORIAL PDF with instructions regarding the structure of your Graphics folder in order to view the citypics, the kits and the competition logos in player details and in title bar.

2. I also included a folder with the files you need to use in order to remove the attributes background boxes (you just have to place the files of that folder in the panels folder of the skin and overwrite the originals)

You can download the FOOTBALL MANAGER BACKGROUNDS SUPERPACK or the City Pics MEGAPACK v4.0 to further enhance the skin.

    What the panel responsible for the Highlight? I need all the panels of this Highlight, statistics, graphics, formation ...
  • Flut's avatar
    uff lots of questions...

    @troy:

    In order to change the atribute background boxes colours you have to go to the settings folder and change the values in the following code

    <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="210" green="210" blue="210"/>
    <colour name="low attribute background" red="197" green="221" blue="242"/>
    <colour name="normal attribute background" red="150" green="198" blue="242"/>
    <colour name="good attribute background" red="161" green="193" blue="51" />
    <colour name="excellent attribute background" red="117" green="147" blue="13" />

    After that you have to exit game and reload it.

    @SilentBob:
    Concerning the attributes, you have to go to the “player overview panel” and search for the following code:

    <translation id="title" translation_id="229822" type="use" value="Attributes" />
    <widget class="player_attributes_panel" file="player attributes panel1" id="pat1" late_loading="true">

    Change “player attributes panel1” for “player attributes panel” (if you changed the attributes colour it works now)

    Concerning the text, you have to edit player overview panel (in the panels folder of the skin), in order to adjust to your screen resolution.

    @robinsonik:
    You just have to go to the preferences of the game, search for “interface” and tick the option “sidebar icons-only”

    @decham:
    Put THIS file in the panels folder of the DF11 skin.

    @Kabalyer:
    Thanks. I will consider your sugestions.

    flut how to change the player attribute colours? cause its not working when I do it in the settings folder
  • SilentBob's avatar
    I have a problem with mine. I've changed the background picture, and deleted the "player attributes panel.xml" then I changed the attribute colours. but now I can't see player attributes in profile, unless I look at the "attributes" page. also the players squad status is blocked slightly by the players name and shirt number.

    Thanks for the DF11 version, Flut! Works perfectly.
  • _SMiguel_'s avatar
    It is possible to adjust the resolution of the skin according to our pc? If possible, what procedures? Thank answer. Thank you

    Hi! Very beautiful skin. I think that too much of the same information. 4 surname, 3 the number of the player. It is best in these places to put other information. Important information (height, weight, date of birth, contract, salary) to be large in size. Under the photo is better to fix the flag and logo of the federation. The animation is very beautiful, but you can make it smaller. Good luck in your work!

    Great work Flut.....Jeff will be very happy now.

  • Haas67's avatar
    Hello Flut. You made the most beautiful skin I ever saw for the FM game. I have only one question for you, can you make the skin also suitable for the DF11 face packs? Would be much appreciated ;-) Keep up the good work!

    Hi Flut,
    thx for your work.

    How can i change attributes background colour in the player profile plz?
  • Luy's avatar
    I'll explain ... in the second sheet PDF states the structure of your folder graphic : ( aaaaFMC Stadium , flags , kits , logos , pictures and players ) .
    With what I understand is if you copy the folder kits inside " clubsbackleftkit " and " nationsbackleftkit " and the same for the cartellla logos.
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi Luy

    Thanks.
    Concerning the first question, in the panels folder of the skin I left a file named

    player overview panel_orig

    in order to use the "normal" version.
    So you only have to change the name to player overview panel and...that's it.

    Concerning the second question, sorry but I can't explain better than I tried in pdf. If you follow the pdf strictly, everything will appear in the correct places.
