FM 2017 FLUT skin White - Final Version
Skin for FM 2017 regular career mode and widescreen (1920x1080).
This is the FLUTSKIN - White, 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

Yeah that worked perfectly mate. Forgot to do this as the complete noob I am.
Thanks again for all the help.
Ha that's alright mate, you can call me Tom or oosh i don't mind. My username is pretty silly. Anyway I tried what you suggested and it didn't seem to work. Any other suggestions?
Again thanks for helping me, it's much appreciated.
Sorry, I meant the attribute background boxes for staff profiles:

Thank you some much for your help, it's much appreciated. Is there anyway I can use the same panel in order to get the staff attribute to match?
The code for settings xml:
<!-- 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" />
Hi lorenzo: I really don't know. I never took a look on it.
just wondering, how much cpu temperature in your cpu when playing fm 17 with your skin this?
Thanks again for trying to help me. I tried everything you suggested but all that happened was that the font changed for the attributes and they all changed to the colour white but without the coloured backgrounds. Maybe something else is needed, from the settings maybe? Any more suggestions would be highly appreciated, but again if you cant then don't worry.
Heres what happened: https://imgur.com/a/Sve8B
Thanks, Tom
Thanks for responding. So would all I have to do is copy over the panel3box panel and nothing else? If you u have any spare time to be able to explain it would be much appreciated. If not no worries.
Thanks anyway, Tom.
@ SaintMotbot, @deek123, @schizophlegmaticmarmot: as i said before I don't know what is (or are) the xmls in conflict responsible for that bug. Thus, I'm sorry but I can't help.
@gazonius: could you please put a screenshot?
Quick question. My brother loves your skin, but his laptop isn't 1920x1080 so it doesn't fit all that well. The main thing he likes is the attribute panel with the boxes. Is there anyway possible to be able to move this panel into another skin? or even the default skin? If not then no worries, just thought I would ask for him.
Thanks anyway, Tom.
Always used your skin, but now it keeps on crashing with error message: FM2017 is running on low memory. No problems when I use the original skins for FM2017. I have 12GB RAM, 4GB Nvidia GPU and i7 Intel 4710 2.5ghz processor. So no problems with system requirements. I never had issues with your skin on FM2016 or 2015. I have a big graphics folder where I collected graphics from last 3 years and constantly keeps it updated with latest versions(e.g. sortitoutsi's cut-out facepacks, backgrounds, cities, stadiums etc.) Normally the error message pops-up after playing 4-5 matches and when I click on a player name in order to see the details. Any idea? It is a pity if I have to stop using your skin... despite my current issues thanks for creating the best skin year after year.
@lorenzo81: you can reduce the the player picture in the following xml (in the custom folder)
- player profile details1.xml
search for
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="9" />
increase the value 9
player profile details2.xml
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="8" />
increase the value 8
player profile details DF11 and scope.xml
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" />
increase the value "0"
In each one of the xml search for
first i really enjoyed with your skin especially white, and i really success to follow the instruction on pdf that you insert on file...
