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.

    Hi herrera: I will release a new version of the white skin with new changes in several panels (for example that one you posted), and tottaly compatible for backgrounds (with transparency) in order to enjoy the new backgrounds superpack (a joint work by DaZS8 and myself). I'm just finishing the version and I will release it soon (maybe this weekend).

    Hi IsthmianCorinthian and Herrera: you just have to go to client object browser and change the code

    <!-- background picture - covers entire screen
    <widget class="picture" file="backgrounds/default" id="lggg">
    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="lggg" />
    <integer id="set_property" value="pict" />
    </record>
    </widget>-->

    <!-- background picture - use with backgrounds-->
    <widget class="background" file="backgrounds/default" id="bgnd">
    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="bgnd" />
    <integer id="set_property" value="file" />
    </record>

    Hey flut,

    is it possible to use this skin with backgrounds? like the dark version?

    cheers
  • IsthmianCorinthian14's avatar
    Hi Flut,
    I was thinking about if it is possible to use the 'big' Background pack in this skin?
    And what about the other skin (the career style mode)?

    Hi TalNtB97: sorry but I will not do a 1366x768 resolution.

    Hi TheCed: for remove the pictures you marked in the screenshot, do the follow:

    1. Go to titlebar.xml (in the panels folder of the skin) and delete the following code:

    <widget class="picture" id="lftB" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="top, left">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="60"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />
    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="mbpc"/>
    <integer id="set_property" value="file"/>
    </record>
    </widget>

    In the same xml, delete also the following code.

    <widget class="picture" id="rigB" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" transparency="1.0">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="right" inset="0"/>
    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="sbpc"/>
    <integer id="set_property" value="file"/>
    </record>
    </widget>

    2. Go to player personal details panel2 and delete the following code (however the space for the kit becomes empty):

    <container priority="1">
    <layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" offset="0" layout="-1" gap="1" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" layout_children="true" inset="0" />

    <!-- This is the shirt -->
    <widget class="picture" id="lftB" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="centre">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0"/>
    <attachment class="test_setting_attachment" get_setting="show_portraits" default_value="true" set_property="hidn">
    <list id="value">
    <boolean value="false" />
    </list>
    </attachment>

    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />

    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="mbpc"/>
    <integer id="set_property" value="file"/>
    </record>
    </widget>
    </container>


    And, in the same xml delete the following code:



    <container >
    <!-- This is the competition logo -->
    <widget class="picture" id="rigB" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" image_alignment="centre">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />
    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="sbpc"/>
    <integer id="set_property" value="file"/>
    </record>
    </widget>
    </container>

    Hello,

    First of all, thank you for the work put on to provide that amazing skin to the community. I am experiencing some issues to display kits and competition logos on titlebar and profile sections. Unfortunately, it's too complicated for me and it looks like I have to configurate it manually for each logo/kit packs which I don't feel doing.

    I have a problem, with my current logo pack, titlebar and profile section is looking horrible, I am trying to remove those sections or pictures that I marked with green on this screenshot: https://i.gyazo.com/5553634b09536a3f270be06a951d5e78.png

    Thank you for reading. I hope to find a way to do so.

    @FLUT

    thx you, but the files don´t work with the 1.9 version :)
  • el-chambo's avatar
    Hi Flut
    Would it be possible to tell me which lines in the titlebar panel I would need to delete to remove the small player face and kit.
    Thanks
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi Sensei: sorry if the pdf is not clear; I did my best in order to make it clear.

    For competitions logos: If you take a look on the "text box" on the page 5 you can see: "This is the folder I have for showing the competitions logos on the titlebar (on the right) and on player details.The config should be similiar to the following example:" - so, if you haven't that folder, create it; inside of the folder you should place the competition logos you want; the config should be similar to the example I also included in the page 5;

    - For kits: the explanation is on the page 3 of the pdf and the process is similar to that one I just finished to explain for the competitions logos;

    Concerning sidebar, sorry but I didn't understand (Where is the sidebar?).
  • SenseiTJ2's avatar
    The PDF included is not very clear.

    Let me start from scratch.

    1. I have placed the skin in the correct folder, the skin loads up fine.

    2. I have placed the city packs in the correct folder, these load up fine.

    However:

    I am unable to see the player kits to the left, or in the player overview menu. Neither can I see the competitions.

    In the PDF you have stated folders such as 00000 clubsbackleftkit

    and also, aaaaaaaaaabackscompright.

    However, you have not mentioned at all what we do with these files. For one, they do not exist - does that mean we create them? If so, what do we put in these folders?

    It is very unclear unfortunately, and the overall mod looks great.

    May I also ask where the (slider) sidebar is in this version?

    Well, if you play with a team, your sidebar has the similar colour like the titlebar (Liverpool a red sidebar, porto a blue sidebar). like this http://s5.postimg.org/l665ee4s6/FC_Porto_Sum_rio.jpg

    if you take a look at another club, which is cpu controlled, the sidebar is also black/grey to every team.
    like this one http://s5.postimg.org/40jhw1kfq/Ewerton_Geral_Atributos.jpg

    Is it possible to change the sidebar of the club which you manage also to this black/grey one
