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.

Discussion: FM 2016 FLUT skin v2.3
263 comments have been posted so far.
First of all, thank ya very much for ya great work on that skin.
I've installed it now and have 2 problems left. One of them seems to be solved by a downloaded update of ya in earlier comments. I'll take a look at that later this evening. It was about the missing kits at the club overview.
The second problem is that the competition logo and the picture of the backnumber of the skin seems to be swapped. On your screenshots they are swapped. How did ya do that.
Here's a small picture of my problem. The competition logo is to large for that small window.

Hope ya know what I mean.
Cheers and a nice evening.

"Concerning the nation/competition logo I the right on the titlebar, the config will have to be like the following example (in this case is for Algerie and for English Premier League)
<record from="alg" to="graphics/pictures/nation/5/logo/background/right"/>
<record from="11" to="graphics/pictures/comp/11/logo/background/right"/>"
Where I should do it? I should add it the config file which is in the logos folder?? Or should I make a new config? I have to do it for every nation and competition? Maybe I can find that config already done on the internet?
Tks,
Mike
I noticed that bug after the upload of the skin. I already fixed it (I had to create a new xml since if we adjust this panel, the player profile panel will be unadjusted. In the next release of the skin it will be fixed.
Concerning the nation/competition logo I the right on the titlebar, the config will have to be like the following example (in this case is for Algerie and for English Premier League)
<record from="alg" to="graphics/pictures/nation/5/logo/background/right"/>
<record from="11" to="graphics/pictures/comp/11/logo/background/right"/>
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”
Hi @Fearless1885:
as I told you before, the alignment=”top” inset= is for the place (if you increase the value you move the logo down); the <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/> is for the size of the logo (if you increase the value of inset, the logo will be reduced).
Hi @DaKingKerion:
1. For the first problem, go to the “tactics position instructions dialog.xml” (in the panels folder of the skin) and increase the “width” value (now the value is 1100) in the following code:
<panel height="800" width="1100" red_replacement="dark_box_background">
<translation id="title" translation_id="247610" type="use" value="Player Instructions" />
2. For change the attributes background boxes (the colour) You just have to go to the settings.xml, search for the following code, and change the values.
<colour name="unknown attribute background" red="210" green="210" blue="210"/>
<colour name="low attribute background" red="241" green="159" blue="193"/>
<colour name="normal attribute background" red="140" green="193" blue="242"/>
<colour name="good attribute background" red="151" green="191" blue="13"/>
<colour name="excellent attribute background" red="248" green="179" blue="86"/>
Don’t forget you have to exit the game and reload it.
Hi @primus:
1. Put THIS xml in the panels folder of the skin
2. Concerning stadium if you only want the first image go to club overview panel and delete the following code:
<container class="plain_box" appearance="boxes/bordered/standard/paper4">
<layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="middle,extend" offset="0" gap="4"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true" inset="0"/>
<widget class="stadium_overview_panel" file="stadium overview panel2" id="ctfs">
<record id="object_property">
<list id="get_properties">
<record>
<integer id="get_property" value="TsHA" />
<integer id="set_property" value="Shwn" />
<boolean id="dont_set_object" value="true" />
</record>
<record>
<integer id="get_property" value="objt" />
<integer id="set_property" value="Cclu" />
<boolean id="dont_set_object" value="true" />
</record>
<record>
<integer id="get_property" value="Tsre" />
<integer id="set_property" value="objt" />
<boolean id="dont_set_hint" value="true" />
</record>
</list>

</widget>
</container>
<container class="plain_box" appearance="boxes/bordered/standard/paper4">
<layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="middle,extend" layout="-1,20,20" offset="0" gap="4"/>
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true" inset="0"/>
<!--average attendance-->

I have a minor issue. Pls see the link: https://imgur.com/G8ZxL1Q
My question is how the change that the name of the player to be above the shirt number? (left up corner). I use 1920x1080 full screen. Windowed mode only to make a screenshot
Second question is as You see I have a mini kits picture displayed but I don't have the nation logo next to the club logo in the titlebar. How to do that? Can You tell me I read tutorial and did like that but nothing happens.
And last question: how to make the nation logo next to the player photo smaller? its just too big.
Tks,
Mike
Ive managed to make it smaller! Thanks for the help although, trying to make it sit lower in the box is another slight issue, ive fiddled with alignment settings but they didnt work lol.
https://gyazo.com/4f95643da40cefb0696e10a786b9226d
EDIT: I HAVE SORTED THE ABOVE. Would like the flag to be a tad larger though lmao
I,ve a problem with the skin. In the tactics screen when I want to set up my instructions I don't have "OK" button. Can I've some help please ?
PICTURE
The second question is how can I change the attributes background ?
PICTURE
Thanks
When you use the instant result button, you get a floating panel displaying the results. In this panel there are also bars with the statistics. But the titles for every bar are the same colour as the background, making them unreadable. In which file can I find this so I can change the colour?
Cheers
worked like a charm!
Another question regarding the stadium panel in club overview.
I've noticed it changes between 3 things. Is it possible to just show this one: https://fmshots.com/bk/U9cl3iv.png (im currently looking for nice pictures to display the real stadium)
Cheers
Thanks.
Concerning the bug you reported, in fact, and I don't know why, that panel doesn't work anymore..So, I did a substitute. Use THIS (put it in the panels folder of the skin)
cheers
Love your skin, looks fresh and organized!
Fixed a couple of issues (including the one below about the big nation logo underneath the player picture, and moving the player name down a bit).
There is just one issue where my skills fail: In the club overview screens, there is an empy widget, with an unclickable arrow. Looking at the screenshots above, there should be kits here. Screenshot: https://fmshots.com/bk/7xpeza6.png. Any ideas? I normally play in windowed mode, but it also occurs in fullscreen mode!
Cheers in advance, and keep up the good work!

@Fearless1885: The line of code <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="15" /> is responsible for reduce the size of the national logo. So, if you want to make it smaller than you have, increase the value 15.
<!-- 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="15" />
Is there anyway i can make the Nationality badge 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”
I have a slight issue with my flag though, any ideas?

Thanks ;-)
I don't know how to fix this kind of bug you reported. This is a bug that comes from FM13, 14 and 15 skins. I think all the skins have that bug. When a team before the current match had a name longer than the current, the background didn't adjust (only when we reload the game the background colour returns to the normal size)
I just noticed this on the match title bar score that the home team bar is not self fitting the team name anymore. a small thing obviously but how do i fix this?

<!-- background attribute box colours Flut claras -->

If you want to remove the boxes you have to follow the pdf (in each one of the xmls I indicate, you have to search the code I put in black in that pdf, and change by the code I put in red).
Hi waltencyr: thanks. Could you please put a screenshot? Thanks.
