Football Manager 2017 Skins - FM 2017 FLUT skin dark - Final Version

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

How to add Flut Skin in FM17

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

  1. Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.

  • softlinker's avatar

    Thanks flut
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi softlinker: you have to delete many xml and change some codes. That's why I included the option. But if you want to use the attributes without boxes as default you can go to player overview panel.xml and change

    <widget class="player_attributes_panel" file="player/player attributes panel3box" id="patt" late_loading="true">
    <translation id="title" type="use" value="Attributes with Background Boxes" />
    </widget>

    <widget class="player_attributes_panel" file="player attributes panel3" id="patt" late_loading="true">
    <translation id="title" type="use" value="Attributes without Background Boxes" />
    </widget>


    and go to player overview big selector panel1 and change

    <widget class="player_attributes_panel" id="paxe" late_loading="true" file="player attributes panel3">
    <translation id="title" translation_id="229822" type="use" value="Attributes" />
    </widget>

    Hi Flut
    but if i want to remove it what should i delete !!!
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi softlinker: you don't need to remove it. You can choose "attributes" in drop down arrow and the attributes without boxes will be displayed.

    Hi david: you just have to delete the player additional attributes panel.xml and reload the game

    Hi david Crash:

    In order to change the colour of background boxes in attributes go to the settings.xml and change the values in

    <!-- background attribute box colours Flut 17 v1 -->
    <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="227" green="178" blue="110"/>
    <colour name="low attribute background" red="246" green="42" blue="42"/>
    <colour name="normal attribute background" red="255" green="156" blue="0"/>
    <colour name="good attribute background" red="15" green="158" blue="15" />
    <colour name="excellent attribute background" red="20" green="247" blue="28" />

    Don’t forget you have to exit the game and reload it.

    Hello, Flut. Thnx for job. Pls tell me where is changing atributes color?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi Perderoth: you have to change the font named BebasNeue Bold (because it not have the symbols for greek language)
    Go to the fonts folder and change that font by other one that you want. After that you have to do a search in all the xml inside the panels folder of the skin in order to change the code. If you use the notepad++ you can do it easily. Find in all folders by font="fonts/BebasNeue Bold" and change by font="fonts/the name of the file you choose as new font"
  • Perderoth's avatar
    Hello. I just downloaded the skin and even though i like it very much, i cant use it, because i m greek and i play with greek players and teams and you have ''?'' at the position of some letters, making it difficult for us to even look at it! What can be done to fix this? Thanks in advance
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi Sensei: for 2d kits you should download the 2d kits through the link I put in the Important Notes.
    In order to display the right logos, please read the pdf tutorial I included in the skin pack.
  • SenseiTJ2's avatar
    Hi Flut,

    The backleft and backright logos are appearing where I would not like them to be... i.e. the titlebar and also on the 'player background'...

    How do I fix this? I have tried deleting the backleft and backright folders from the logos/clubs but they simply revert to the FM standard logos... is this something to do with the Skin?

    I am using Metallic logos if that helps.

    Thanks for your help..

    Hi redemptor: in fact in the match inbetween highlights panel is not possible to show the citypic. That's why I didn't include it in that panel. cheers!
  • redemptor's avatar
    Hi there Flut,

    Thanks a lot for your prompt answer (as always)!

    I would rather show up city pics there...What do I need to change... or what config file am I supposed to change (and how), in order to get City pics instead?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi redemptor: the picture missed is not from the city but a second stadium picture. In order to display that picture (here and in the club overview, rotating with the first stadium picture) you need to have the pack. If you want you can download it in the Backgrounds Superpack (the link is above, in the "Important Notes").

    Hi there FLUT,

    Can you help me out with the following:

    a) My City Pics are not showing up in the "gamebreak" panels (are they supposed to?)

    b) However, they do show up in the team info screen.
