Football Manager 2023 Skins - FM 2023 FLUT skin - Version 8.0
Dear all

This is FLUTSKIN version 8.0 for FM23!!


First of all I would like to give a great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still editing the skin and gave me new ideas!!!

A special thank you to all of players who decided to distinguish my work with a donation!! Although just a small part of FM Players who use the skin made a donation (I edited the skin as a hobby and, as you know, completely free), I always feel honoured and happy when people recognize the work done and decide to contribute. So, I reinforce, I have to give a special thank you to that friends of FlutsKin!!!!!!

Also a thank you to all the skin makers who indirectly contribute to my work, and a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin), to MICHAEL MURRAY since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work, to QVORDRUP, for the metallic “Round country flags” and his great collaboration in the “country locator maps”, to NUNO KOPIO for the “Square shiny flags” I included as alt files (for using as an alternative to the “Round country flags”) to PMPOU for his great contribution with many tickets to customize the skin, and to DAZS8 for his great work in the addons for Flutskin. I also thank you for the contributes made by NOLEAFWILEN and RICHBELL.

In FlutSkin you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present all of them here. I suggest you to go through the panels in order to see with your eyes all the changes!! (it includes the most required stuff such as instant result during a match, picture of the player who scores a goal in the match, last starting XI in club overview panel, citypics, outside and inside stadiums vision, real 2D kits in player overview panel, etc, etc).

    The pack includes many alt files for customize the skin (please read the read me file included in the pack) and several tutorials: 1) how should be the configs for the stadiums packs; 2) how can you adjust the size and the place of the kit number in player overview panel; 3) how can you do the 2D kits adapted for Flutskin. BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE ALT FOLDERS AND ALSO AT THE READ ME AND TUTORIAL FILES!!

    You also can download the stadiums megapack and the citypics released by DAZS8 (thank you, my friend)
    HERE, HERE and HERE

    Important note regarding TV LOGOS:
    Although the default tv logo is the one I use, of course you can easily change it; for that you just have to go to skin/graphics/icons/tv logos. In that folder there is a alt folder with many TV logos. You just have to replace the tv logo.png and the tv [email protected] for that one you want. Of course you should rename the new logos as tv logo and tv logo@2x. You also can use other logos made by you. The procedure to use them is exactly the same. However, I should remember that yo should use logos with the right height. For tv logo you should use 25px and for the @2x you should use 50px.

    As always FlutSkin is completely free to download and I hope you enjoy it. However, if you want, you can reward my work donating whatever amount you wish. Any small amount is really appreciated.
    You can do so by clicking the button down below:


    Resolution requirements:
    This skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions..

    How to add Flut Skin in FM23

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

    Place the "fm2023flutskin_dark" folder here:
    Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\skins

    1. Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
    2. Start FM23 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
    3. You should see FM 2023 Flut Skin dark - 8.0 as an option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
    4. 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 Flut
      As simple as that and I couldn't figure it out. Thanks mate, sorry for taking your time.
      For the left part, its hidden whenever ball comes to that part but I guess its the way it works.
      Again, thank you and appreciate your support
    • Flut's avatar
      Hi fero: did you used the mouse to drag the right panel to the left (making it bigger)? Regarding the left panel, that panel is displayed and also automaticcaly hidden by the game. However, if you inadvertently clicked on the match titlebar the panel will not hidden automatically. Thus, for that you should click again on the match titlebar (for example, on the clock).

      Hi Flut, I searched the forum but couldn't find an answer there. So here is my question.
      I do use 1920x1200 screen res. everything seems fine, but after I upgraded to version 7 I had problem with match screen as I send at the link.

      The right side of the screen is squeezed and cant see player names and other stuff. Is there a way to change the dimensions of that part.

      and secondly, at the left hand side, the screen doest hide itself while a key highlight .

      best rgerds,

      Hi asapas: as I remember you already have that file changed. You just have to use that file from the other version of the skin.
    • asapas's avatar
      Hello FLUT! Regarding the flashing shirts in tactics panel, how can I send you the file info overview16.xml from the folder, so that you can make the change and send it back to me? :)
    • Flut's avatar
      sam: regarding the mentoring groups it seems is hardcoded. Thus I don't know how to include other information.
      For the player popup panel I already included the pros/cons and it will be present in the next version of the skin.
      Concerning the kits. You should download the kits prepared for flutskin. You can do it HERE

      mogutcu: could you please show me a screenshot if that problem?

      Flut thank you, it worked fine.
    • Flut's avatar
      Hi jcklaw: I forgot to say that you should use the alt 23 files, since for the files with background boxes you should change "manually" each one of the panels. Thus, use the alt 23 files and you will have your changes in players attributes.
    • jcklaw's avatar
      I tried but it doesn't work,
      think I gotta just get used to it.
      But anyway thanks.

      sam14om: sorry but I couldn’t open your screenshots….could you please send new screenshots?

      jura90: Go to player attributes analyser outfield2.xml and player attributes analyser goalkeeper2.xml and change the colour name in the following code:

      <!-- First layer colour-->
      <record id="line_style">
      <colour id="colour" name="attribute analyser line" />
      <real id="width" value="1.2" />
      </record>

      edgaribeiro: sorry, my bad. For that, go to non player attributes panel.xml and change all the pieces of code similar to the following
      <record indx="1" alignment="centre,centre_y" auto_size="vertical" spec="text" font="label" style="bold" size="11" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" colour="black" />

      for
      <record indx="1" alignment="right,centre_y" style="semi_bold" />

      Jcklaw: go to the settings.xml and change the values in the following code:
      <colour name="low attribute" red="247" green="121" blue="121"/>
      <colour name="normal attribute" red="245" green="245" blue="85"/>
      <colour name="good attribute" value="green 100" />
      <colour name="excellent attribute" value="green" />

      Hello Flut, can you tell me how to change the color of this line? I would like it to be more darker black.
    • edgaribeiro's avatar
      Flut, the alt files nº18 just wipe out the attributes, i want to see the attributes but not the rectangular boxes, in players we can do that(alt file nº23), but not for the staff.
    • edgaribeiro's avatar
      jcklaw, you can do that in the game itself in "preferences".
    • jcklaw's avatar
      I'm talking about the "value" of the attributes.
      The 4 colours - Low, Average, Good, Excellent.
      That's what I want to change.
    • Flut's avatar
      Hi edgarribeiro: you should use the alt I included for that. Is the alt nº 18

    • edgaribeiro's avatar
      Hello Flut, can you tell me how to deactivate the attribute boxes for staff?
      In players we have the option to show only the attributes without the boxes, in pop up too.
      In the past versions deleting non player attributes panel file do the trick, but not anymore.
      Thank you for the skin.
    • Flut's avatar
      Hi jcklaw: are you talking about the colour of the attributes background boxes or the colour of the value of the attributes?

      Hi sam14om: could you please show me a screenshot explaining exactly what is your request?

      Hi kfnielsen. is exactly as Richardcharlston explained :)
