FM26 Faster UI Patch: 250% Speed Up

I have released a patch speeding up the Football Manager 26 UI by 200-250%!

After applying this patch, the UI feels super snappy and responsive. The squad tab looks like it might under a different section, but still a huge speed up.

Updated: 6 December 2025

Installing the UI Speed Patch

This patch uses the ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle file to speed up panel loading times in the game.

Watch video or keep reading.

1. Download the file.


2. Locate the Game Directory: Navigate to your Football Manager installation directory. The standard path for Windows is typically:
   

   \Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\fm_Data\StreamingAssets\aa\StandaloneWindows64\

   And for Mac:
   

   ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/Resources/Data/StreamingAssets/aa/StandaloneOSX

3. Locate the original "ui-panelids_assets_all.bundle" file in the game's data folder and make a backup copy before proceeding.


4. Copy and paste the file into the game directory. When asked, choose to overwrite/replace the existing file.

Enjoy!
