Football Manager 2024 Skins - FM24 Light Skin
After quite a few requests I have decided to release my Light Skin this year. This is my first release of a skin which I usually create for myself.

This has only been tested on a laptop resolution (mainly a MacBook) so I cannot guarantee what this will look like on higher resolution screens.

I am aware that there are still some issues with the skin itself regarding white text on white backgrounds making them hard to read. I have changed as many areas where this occurs as I can find, but there are still areas that may be able to be fixed and some areas that are hardcoded and cannot be fixed.
I don't plan of fixing any issues myself as I am not that great at skinning and have created this skin as far as I can create it.

The skin is mainly a mash up of panels created by other better skinners than myself and then edited slightly to work and look the way I prefer to play the game. Credits are listed further down.

Released: 14 October

Light Skin Credits

There are many skinners that have either helped me along the way or who I have used their work in this skin. I will have probably forgotten some creators so apologies if I don't list you.

TCSSkin - A lot of panels are the work of TCSSkin which has kindly given permission to release this skin. Also was a big help with any questions I had regarding issues with skinning. Also a big inspiration came from many versions of the TCS Skin.

JustHowie - The tactic screen and Competition News screen are taken from the Just Skin.

Sic - The Player Overview screen was inspired and taken from the Livid skin from previous FM versions.

Michael T Murray - For all the help with my questions over the years while learning how to skin.

Wozzie - For the Tato skin which inspired some panels in the past.

GIMN - For any help provided with issues and for releasing how he made his Home Screen which was a big help to see how a panel is created.

    alexpuk2002:
    To fix the sidebar issue if you want the full sidebar then go to the following file:
    panels/generic/sidebar menu table.xml

    On line 9 change the transparency value from 0 to 1 and this will put a background behind the menu so the writing is readable

    It does not work :(

    This is one of the best light skins I have ever seen... a few tweaks I would love to suggest to anyone capable of editing it, honestly I think we would have the best FM Skin ever made.

    Also my stadium pictures don't seem to be working on the Club page, Any idea what size they need to be?

    This skin is so good but the faces don't work still
  • touchofheaven's avatar
    Absolutely the best skin. Finally, I found a good light skin that has everything I need.
  • Spiddi's avatar
    I have the same problem, could it be the cut out facepack
  • alexpuk2002's avatar
    If someone has managed to fix any of the issues within the skin then I would be happy to see them.

    Regarding the player faces, I have no idea why this is an issue as it has never happened to me. I know some people have solved the issue by refreshing the skin

    Can only be used wih small sidebar icons but other than that it's an amazing skin. Been looking for a light skin for a long time!

    Isn't there a brave man who can fix the mistakes in this theme?
  • Oke's avatar

  • ram_muai's avatar
    i can't see playes faces too
  • zbidram's avatar
    Hi. is it possible to have this skin with hidden attributes, please?
  • Vincent_85's avatar
    Thank you for your work. The skin is good, but, one remark however, but there are sometimes white writings on a light background (examples the menu bar on the left...) it cannot work.

    Not a fan of light colour skins, but wonderful work! Congrats!!

    @Stam, I know that it doesn't include the faces, I've already set the faces with the DFF Faces, but when I've set his skin and I consult the page of a player his face doesn't appear whereas on the normal skin or on the other skins the faces appear.

    Update: Its good ! I refresh !

    la skin e' carina ma ci sono dei problemi nelle tattiche. Nella sezione "non in possesso" mancano delle istruzioni. Durante la partita non funzionano bene i widget, e il tablet diventa trasparente come nel gioco default.
  • serkanedabasar78's avatar
    The theme is nice, but the transparent background tires the eyes, features and other details interfere with each other.

    Update: There is a button at the top, I solved it, great theme

    @ilyes: Skins don't include player faces or club logos or other graphic packs of that kind. The screenshots above show that the author is using the DF11 Facepack.

    Hello your skin is great but I can't see the players' faces. They don't appear.
