Football Manager 2023 Skins - Just Skin 2023 Final

JUST SKIN23


This is my first attempt at creating a custom skin and to say I was not expecting the popularity would be an understatement, thank you everyone!
The skin was designed with 85% zoom in mind (I'm working on trying to optimise it for 100%) so I can't be certain it will work at anything over 85%

PSA!

please check out the MODS folder as there are many ways to change the appearance of things such as attribute boxes being on/off, stars or circles etc. Any future updates will be going like with attribute boxes off by default (this is the way I personally play) I have tried to cover as many different play styles as possible by incorporating this mod folder

Just Skin Features

  • MODS (limited) like attribute boxes? want to see a secret button that reveals hidden attributes on a player profile(editor required)? check out the MODS folder (more to come at a later date)
  • Get the most from your tactics screen! many useful tabs added to the re designed tactics screen.
  • A hidden, hidden attributes panel that smiley face you see on the player profile screen is used to reveal hidden attributes in the adjacent cell (don't click if you don't want it spoiled may turn this into a mod)
  • Custom views throughout the skin for the views I use, most include player pictures!
  • Background selector for those who like a little more colour / backgrounds (recommend full cycling as the transparency is a little buggy)
  • Tabs everywhere! for me the game needs more at your finger tips tabs have been put in many places to try and reduce the amount of clicks needed.
  • Customisable scouting centre (previously you couldn't alter what you see now you have the option to add things you find important)
  • Complete overhaul of most pages presenting you with more information in places lacklust in the base skin.
  • Key attributes drop down boxes present in most places to try and help you determine player retrainability!
  • Much more in depth scouting cards (will eb re visiting this area again soon) both in the inbox and in the scouting centre.
  • Changes to inbox panels (so you don't see the squished up stuff the default has issues with) and also customised / changed news items.
  • Colour overhaul including removal of most Transfer deadline day colours
  • Subtle Match day changes including the match tablet (more to come here with the line up / primary coloured stuff being pulled)

    So i put the whole folder in to Skin folder.
  • Justhowie's avatar
    I will be adding a mod in the mods folder tomorrow for changing condition and morale colours back to default for those wishing to do so. The attribute boxes can be change in the settings/just settings file line 458-462 by changing the value="" values to ones of your choosing, these are currently

    <!-- ATTRIBUTE BOXES-->
    <colour name="unknown attribute background" value="grey 500"/>
    <colour name="low attribute background" value="jamesbg"/>
    <colour name="normal attribute background" value="rgb(25, 10, 60)"/>
    <colour name="good attribute background" value="rgb(115, 60, 225)"/>
    <colour name="excellent attribute background" value="justfg1"/>

    you can find a colour chart for something you may prefer here

    @TonyD take the folder out the rar and put it in your skins folder should be a path in my documents to sports interactive and then football manager 23, in there there should be a skins folder if there isn't create one and put the contents of the rar inside that folder

    @Hongki92 I'm not at home at the moment will drop you a DM when I am
  • TonyD's avatar
    Might be silly question but how do you install to game, have the RAR file.

  • Hongki92's avatar
    It doesn't wanna let me change the colors on the attributes and the stamina heart to green, how do i do that?
  • nestabest's avatar
    thx!
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @nestabest updates yes time frames trying to prepare one for Wednesday (usual day) I am still investigating the continue button you reported missing also
  • nestabest's avatar
    Do you have any plans for later updates?
  • Justhowie's avatar
    I will take a look later @nestabeet for 1 you can use space-bar for
  • nestabest's avatar
    I can't find the continue button when starting a new game. Is it a bug?
    https://imgur.com/a/YsC5VG9
    Also, it is hard to see the button.
    https://imgur.com/a/DP1F1Wi
    Could you solve it pls
  • Justhowie's avatar
    Another micro fix (noticed a few things while playing like formations in match both showing the home team) fixed 21:50 2/8/2023
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @cavalier1875 removed a file and updated if you want to redownload (been having issues testing VAR can see what the issue is but can't test changes so removed the file controlling it)
  • cavalier1875's avatar
    Excellent work!

    One thing though, the VAR decision panel is white and nothing can be read on it.
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @nestabest I'm currently trying to work my way through tidying all panels up and changing panel sizes from values to screen portions to try and combat different resolutions. But this may be done over several patches as there is alot of panels to get through
  • nestabest's avatar
    Can you provide two versions? One is for large size, and one is for small size.
  • Justhowie's avatar
    I am currently aware of a Background selector issue and will be updating shortly
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @Phildw I have a fix for this going live now (with everything else for next weeks update included) there's a lot of graphics reduction in this one to try and make the skin smaller and load faster. If you notice anything let me know (should be up now)
  • Phildw's avatar
    Thanks for update. Have noticed on the tactics screen that every time you make a change on the 'pitch' view (Ie: change a player or move a players position) it switches to 'last match' view and you have to keep hitting the pitch tab to get it back.
  • Justhowie's avatar
    I have had to throw an early hot fix up as there was an issue with the tactics screen tabs during the world cup / off season apologises if this has effected you. As I have been working on reducing the file size of the skin there may be issues I haven't caught yet please report them if you find any
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @milenec11 skins/just/just settings
    <!-- ATTRIBUTE BOXES-->

    change the rgb settings recommend using https://materialui.co/color-picker
  • milenec11's avatar
    how can i change the attributte box colour's?
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @frutloopz this is SaS's thing, feel free to modify for yourself but this will most likely cause resolution issues for others. Alternatively I can add a selector to the home screen with this

  • frutloopz's avatar
    Great skin!

    A quick suggestion:
    The is a feature within FM, Bookmarks, which is really not that well known, mainly for where it is placed by default. it would be cool if the Bookmarks could be shown on the left panel.
  • Justhowie's avatar
    @crazybruin12 do you have the editor? As it doesn't show for me either but I don't have the editor.

    Today's update is being delayed until tomorrow whilst I try and fix a few things in regards to the tactics screen hopefully early tomorrow morning
  • Crazybruin12's avatar
    Hey @justhowie I just downloaded the skin and really like it so far. One question I have with the hidden attribute button, are we suppose to see the ratings of all the hidden attributes and not just player rating and potential? Because for me I only see those 2 and wondering if I need to do something different to see the others
