For many years I have wanted to make a large pack using the many backgrounds by myself and others.
Well here it is, got to be a must for every FM fan a super pack full of quality images to enhance your gaming experience.
All have the correct xml/config files to work correctly and I have fully tested the whole pack with no problems.
Certain backgrounds will show on certain screens....
City pack images will show on all Cub screens.
Stadiums will show on all Team screens, etc.
What's in the pack?
COMPETITIONS
CLUB STADIUMS
CITY PACK
MINI STADIUM PACK (fmc/fmt)
CONFEDERATIONS
STADIUMS (overview)
NATIONAL STADIUMS
NATIONAL FLAGS
PLAYER BACKGROUNDS
Thousands of backgrounds all in one very impressive pack.
Files have all been converted to jpg to reduce the size but for the amount you get here it was always going to be large.
PACK SIZE: 8,52 GB (Red Button)

The backgrounds are fine, the small city pictures are the issue.
EDIT: I didn't catch that you were asking me the same question as the guy above, i do have both the torrent and the updates installed. Not the bonus update though but 1-10 are all installed.
@vecac2 same ?
@trigga i will see what i can do
v1.0.1D
EDIT: Just to be perfectly clear, I don't mean the background, but the small picture of the city under it's name.
First of all, thank you for this pack.
I am, however, experiencing an issue using CFM skin, where the city picture on the club overview screen is the same for every club. The picture was already there with the CFM skin before i installed your pack.
Now everything is ok (even the stadiums in background, f.e. in club's panel "General" of skin Andromeda).
I still can't see the 2 photos of the stadiums in the Information panel. What can I do to solve the problem (anything about the ,xml file?)?
Thank you so much.

If no, check : Preferences> Interface> Appearance> Clear Cache
Don't forgot : Untick: "Use cache ..." & Tick: "Reload Skin ..."
Finaly, "Confirm" ...
I've tried with various skins (default, andromeda normal and low res, flut, vitrex) and the whole rest of the pack is ok.
My max resoultion is 1366x768, i have put the pack in \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2017\graphics.
What's the problem?
Yeah, I followed the instructions exactly. I deleted all files and installed them again...starting with the main file and then each update in order. I did download the AIO file which includes updates 1-5...not sure if that is causing a problem or not. In any case, this second time around most city pictures are missing in my game that were there the first time. But the ones that were missing are now showing. Weirdest thing ever. I'm using the FLUT Light skin if that makes a difference. Just to be clear...all the correct folders and pictures are in the correct location. I can see them. But for whatever reason my game doesn't display them correctly.
You have clearly done something wrong, either start again and follow instructions or wait for next pack to be released that will include all the updates anyway
out now!!
The next update will be a complete pack including all updates as a torrent file later in the year.
One thing I ask is that if a READ ME file is included in an update then would you please read it, it would solve the problems some people seem to get.
This is a very large pack and has had multiple contributors which may incur errors from time to time but we/I try to fix as and when anything is discovered.
Please download and install all updates to get the full pack, trust me its worth it
I would like to thank everyone who has helped make this pack so spectacular and also thank everyone for downloading.
