FM 2016 FLUT skin v2.3
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 White 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.
This skin is compatible with DF11, Scope and Cutout Faces.
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.

So in order left right: physical, last five form, kit. No animation.
Here's the panel you requested. Appreciate it so much, used to skin myself and know it can be frustrating at times! Cheers. https://www.dropbox.com/s/mq6vwf1ro3hmnw7/player%20personal%20details%20panel1.xml?dl=0
1. Could be, it's still quick enough though, no worries.
2. Awesome! I think this is the same case with the morale icons as well.
3. Hmm, nevermind then. I'll let you know if I see it again.
4. Great.
5. I copied the code the user below me (valeron) posted now it's good. Thanks.
6. Sorry, I meant the animation that displays the player league, club, kit, player rating, and so on. The box to the right and bottom of the player picture. Is there any easy way to make it stay on one animation and not cycle through? I'm not a huge fan of the animation, to be honest.
Cheers mate, look forward to v1.5!
1. I’m not aware of that yet, however, of course I believe in you. I don’t know why. Maybe is due to the fact that some xml pointed to various other xml….
2. I already did it. I will included in the next version.
3. I tested with my game and it seems everything goes well (could you please place a screenshot?)
4. Following your suggestion, I did it. Because the analyzer will be small I included an animation. I will included that change in the next version.
5. Yes I noticed that. As I use different logos, for my game is okay. In order to adjust it you have to go to
player overview panel.xml and search for the code:
<container width="165" height="165" alignment="left,centre_y">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="0"/>
<widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="pnat" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="centre">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="15"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/>
You can increase the value inset=”0” and, after that you can adjust the place where is the logo, changing the value inset=”15”
6. Sorry, I think I didn’t understand this. In the player overview there is no scrolls. Could you please explain a little bit more?
This skin is phenomenal. Making me switch from years of windowed to full screen again.
A few things.
1. It seems to process slower than other skins. For example when continuing to the next day, there's a slight choppiness to the animation. Nothing too bad but slightly annoying.
2. The larger stars are still the default stars instead of the dots. Making bigger dots to match would be nice.
3. Scoreboard text appears black when watching highlights of another match, not sure why. Fine when viewing matches normally.
4. I think a small analyzer polygon would be good on the player attributes screen right next to the face.
5. You're aware of this but the nation logos under the player picture is too large.
6. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'd like a player overview that doesn't scroll through different items. Maybe an alternative option?
Just my recommendations going forward. Again, amazing work!
Here's the code that works for me:
<!-- This is the nation logo -->
<container width="165" height="165" alignment="left,centre_y">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="40"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="-110"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="40"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/>
change the inset for a higher value than 0
For instance, when I use the following text strings:
--
<!-- This is the nation logo -->
<container width="100" height="100" alignment="left,centre_y">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="50"/>
--
..it still looks like this: https://fmshots.com/bk/NhvkmnK.png.
Do you know how I make the nation logo fully visible here? Thanks a lot, and Merry Christmas! :-)
NeCris: As I said in the post, the skin works properly in 1920x1080 full window. Sorry....
Tabak: in fact I didn't test in all the languages and I didn't know that the new font I included doesn't have all the characteres. Sorry
Put this file in the fonts folder of the skin
inbox_title
competition fixtures item panel detailed.xml, from the panels folder of the skin.
Concerning the second problem, I think you are talking about the nation logo below the picture.
You can edit it in In order to reduce the nation logo smaller:
Go to the player overview panel and search for
<!-- This is the nation logo -->
<container width="165" height="165" alignment="left,centre_y">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="0"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="bottom" inset="0"/>
<widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="pnat" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="centre">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="15"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/>
You can increase the last value inset=”0” and, after that you can adjust the place where is the logo, changing the value inset=”15”
@mike1422 : Yes. You have to duplicate your logos folder and do new configs. However you can do it quickly if you have for example the “notepad ++” application/programme. With that application you can select the folder where you put the folders with logos, search for the part of the text/code you have to change in all of the lines of each config and replace it by the “new” code you can insert. That was in that way I did it.
I'm currently submerged in work and that's why I couldn't answer your questions. I will try to answer all the questions next weekend...sorry.
