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

How to add Flut Skin in FM16

  1. Download and extract the .rar file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

  2. Place the "fm2016flutskin" folder here:
    Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2016\skins
    Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.

  3. Start FM16 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
    You should see FM 2016 Flut Skin - v. 2.3 as option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
    Hit the Confirm button.

Please note this skin is provided as is. It has nothing to do with Sports Interactive or SEGA and won't be supported by them.

    I saw what does the pdfs says( change the code in blac for code in red) but I cant find those codes in black in settings.xml
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi insp1rat0r. You can change the background boxes in the settings folder of the skin. After change it, don't forget to exit game and reload it. If you want to remove the background boxes of the attributes, please read one of the pdfs I included in the pack.
  • Insp1rat0R's avatar
    can I change colours of atributes?
  • Flut's avatar
    @butlerian: I thought was concerning your screen resolution, because the pitch seems too narrow (and the pitch adjusts the ratio width/height automatically)…However if you say that in the dark version the bug doesn’t arise…I really have no the faintest idea why it happens.

    @niejo: I think some panels work well…some panels don’t. That’s why I told you to delete those one that don’t work well…Sorry but I don’t intend to do the skin for other resolutions. ;-(

    hi....do you going to make a skin for resolution 1366 x768
  • Niejo101's avatar
    Yeah, flut, so becasue of my 1366x768 resolution i should just delete each and every panel in your skin?!?
  • butleriain's avatar
    Thanks Flut. Mostly fixed. Any idea why I see that black box on match tactics page? I dont see it on the dark version, just the white version.

    @Niejo101: I think the problem is due to your screen resolution. In order to fix the problems you reported is better to delete the xml responsible for that panels in the flutskin (the FM originals will be showed).
    So, to fix the panel you put the screenshot, try to delete:
    team squad tactics panel.xml (in the panels folder of the skin)


    @butleriain:
    In order to solve the missing attributes Put THIS file in the panels folder of the DF11 skin.
    The other problems (similar to those reported by niejo) are due to your screen resolution (I think…). So, is better to return, in those panels, to the “original” SI skin.
    Delete the following xml (in the panels folder of the skin):
    team squad tactics panel
    tactics overview panel

    Another note: there are no option to choose from on this screen. This was the same at the start of the season.

    Flut

    Ive had some issues on the match tactics screen as described below by Neijo101. See attached. Some shading over the players and a black box on the bottom right.

  • Niejo101's avatar
    What is described below seems to be happening in every single panel
  • Niejo101's avatar
    I am encountering the following problem; in nearly all the screens, there is this darkening bar at the bottom and in many cases on the right of the screen as well. how can i fix that?

  • butleriain's avatar
    Hi Flut, update indeed fixed those very minor issues.

    Ive switched to using DF panels and on the player profile screen the attributes are missing on my game. Can you take a look please?

    Cheers

    Thanks Flut,

    It's working!
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi zyndar

    You did in the wrong place.
    If you want to change the attribute boxes you have to change "attribute background" (the code I paste in my post) and not the attribute colour (this is for change the colour of the values and with the boxes didn't work because the values were defined in white colour).

    The alpha colour is the transparency.
  • zyndar's avatar
    Tried to change as you advised, reloaded the game, but still no change. By the way what's the use of the 'alpha' setting?
  • zyndar's avatar
    Thx Flut I will try it. Are you planning to have this option implemented to the game itself?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi Zyndar

    You can do it in the settings xml
    Search for

    <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" />

    and change the values. After, you have to exit game and reload it.
    cheers

    Hi Flut,

    thanks for the new version. Where to change the player attribute colors?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi yerdek

    As I said, the skin works properly in 1920x1080. You can try to use the zoom and see if it works.
  • Yerdek's avatar
    Is it any chance to made this skin work properly on Macbook Air? The resolution is 1440x900.
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi butleriain

    Thanks ;-)
    You're right. The staff details have disappeared in an SI update. However, I already fixed it and in the new version of the skin that panel will be okay.
    Concerning the second question, I notice that and I changed a little bit the colour of the text in order to be read when the background is white (also in the next version I include that change).

    cheers
  • butleriain's avatar
    Hi Flut, great skin as always.

    Just a couple of questions.

    1) On the 'Board' screen I see that all my staff details have disappeared. Is this just me?

    2) On match title bar when playing in the Premier League how can I change the font colour from white as it clashes with the match title bar, so you cant read the competition name, location and injury time minutes too well.

    Thanks in advance!
