FM 2017 FLUT skin dark - Final Version
Skin for FM 2017 regular career mode and widescreen (1920x1080).
This is the FLUTSKIN - Dark for FM 2017 - Final Version
I would like to start by expressing my acknowledgment to all FMfans who keep me motivated to edit the FlutSkin with kind words of support and stimulus.
In spite of my great recognition to all FM Skinners and graphic/addons producers that make our FM experience much more exciting, I would like to express a special thank you to PATRES10, for the tailor-made default kits I included in the skin; to NECJEFF, for the original creation of country locator that I adapted in Flutskin; to JOVOVICH, for the wonderful match intro panels; to SIRWILL and PIKAWA, for the match scoreboards I included in the skin; and, “last but not the least”, to RUNE, who has always shared his ideas with me, was responsible for the most innovative idea to improve FM skins visual – the citypics – and who has been a “compagnon de route” since the beginning of this journey.
All of you are the main source of inspiration that has made possible to improve FlutSkin since the first time (in FM13) I decided to try to edit a skin.
About the Final Version
This version does not include "structural" (or big) changes. It includes, however, several tweaks in different panels, namely in the following:
- News panel: pre-season report team preview, post match analysis, pre-match opponent analysis and team report panel tweaked
- Match preview, Match overview and Match pre-match panel: all the lineups in those panels were tweaked
- Match titlebar score: scoreboard was tweaked
- Flut match scoreboard (tweaked)
- Match introduction: League one, Serie A, K League, Bundesliga included (from Jovovich); Liga NOS included (non official intro, made based on EPL league)
- Board room (“new”)
- Club overview panel: slightly larger club kits and Last XI tweaked.
I hope you enjoy this version!
See you in FM18!!!
Compatible with DF11 and Scope Faces
Released: 27 August, 2017
Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions (and also in 1920x1080 windowed mode).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
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.
You can download the 2D kits for displayed in player overview panel and titlebar HERE
You also can download the citypics (and much more…) in the Backgrounds Superpack made by DAZS8 (with some contribution from myself and other FM Fans), HERE

Regarding your second post, sorry but I didn't understand it....
Hi Bengo: yes, I removed the BS (the screenshot is from the old version, before I remove the BS) because it causes crashes in the game....
(Sorry about double posting, missed I could edit)
Is it okay if I share the xml for other players who like your skin but also don't want to see hidden stuff? Or perhaps I could send you a PM with the xml to add for those who want to replace it? Or just nothing and whoever wants it has to figure out how to do it himself? Or should I discard it and choose seeing it or use another skin? Since this is your work I want to be 100% sure I don't do anything you don't like about it.
@troy: thanks. Unfortunately I couldn't find how obtain the same colour of the header yet...
@bengo: thanks for your support :-) :-). In order to not display the hidden attributes you just have to go to the player folder of the skin and delete the file player additional attributes panel.xml
Very nice and detailed Skin
One question though
I really don't like the menubar's colouring
Like im Man utd and the menubar is way to red can it be like the color ala the header?
cheers
Any luck in getting player stats in the match floating windows? (Home/Away player ratings)
Great skin as usual thank you for job.
I have a small worry of colour as they can see it on this picture

Anyway, congratulations for your job!
@lallana: thanks (also for your suggestion)
@Bartdude: thanks :-)
@Fearless: Thanks!! Regarding your answer, go to graphics/icons/custom and delete the folder star rating
My only issue with this skin is the ability stars. You told me last year how to remove your circular levels for the official stars. Would you mind sharing that information again so i can change this? Many thanks mate.
Keep it up.
