Football Manager 2023 Skins - Mustermann v3.03 FM23 Light Skin

Mustermann23

A light skin taking a radical approach to the way Football Manager can be played. Overview pages have been overhauled with a sparse UI, prioritising key information and reducing clutter, whilst the new analytic stats added in this year's edition are given prominence on the player profile to help those who like to take a "Moneyball" approach to their careers.

Love the skin so much thank you. I have emptied out the old versions, downloaded this one, cleared cache etc and changed to a different colour, but my player screen is still the old one? Any ideas?
gimn85 • 2 years ago

@lucasnake - it appears that way. Defining the unknown attribute colour only seems to work if that setting is enabled, and that seems to prevent setting through the preference menu.
lucasnake • 2 years ago

Thanks, it worked. So as i understand it's impossible to have custom colours and different colour for unknown attributes together? That's bad, but i can live with it.
gimn85 • 2 years ago

@lucasnake - that appears to be an unintended consequence of "Unknown attributes now show as a different colour to poor attributes". I'll review if this needs to be reverted back.

For now, at least, there are a couple of options:

- Use Notepad+ and change use_attribute_colour_as_bg="true" to use_attribute_colour_as_bg="false" using the Find in Files function (select the whole skin folder, and replace all)
- Define the colours you want in settings/Mustermann Graphical settings.xml, these colours are defined from line 664 starting "low attribute".

Hey gimn, after the new update i'm not being able to change the attribute range colours, is it intended?
gimn85 • 2 years ago

@Gokul9447 - have you extracted the skin from the .rar? Your skins folder should look something like this: https://content.invisioncic.com/Msigames/monthly_2022_12/image.png.fe43bd1c497404d726ea76ab6ca3a669.png
(Obviously it might have other skins in there, too)
Gokul9447 • 2 years ago

it doesnt shows in my skin folder when i open game ?

gimn85 • 2 years ago

@nonosor - unfortunately not. For a lot of the screens the background colour is defined inside the boxes containing the information, so even with a background selected, you wouldn't be able to see it.

@Andersonandhe - there are no plans for a dark version.
Andersonandhe • 2 years ago

Da pra eu mudar pra black ?

nonosor • 2 years ago

hello, can we use background with this skin?

gimn85 • 2 years ago

@Selawien - is that the column that's been added in by some skinners from the old FMs? With the values as percentages?

If so, I assume they've changed the person properties.xml in the properties folder. If you search for "overall physical condition" you will see an entry that says for IGE only. Try changing the customisation_context from "none" to "play". You'll possibly need to close the game entirely and re-enter to see if it's worked.
Selawien • 2 years ago

@gimn85 great skin, one question - in my tactic screen is normally use "overall physical Condition/match sharpeness" but its not displayed when i insert the column. what can i do?

Much appreciated!

gimn85 • 2 years ago

@starwood - the settings folder is already inside the skin. Let's say you're using Mustermann Numerical and you want to use the Red colour theme.

- Copy the Reds.xml file to Mustermann Numerical/settings.
- Delete Mustermann Numerical settings.xml.
- Rename Reds.xml to Mustermann Numerical settings.xml
- Reload the skin (make sure Use Caching is turned off when you reload the skin)

How do the alternative colors work with the new update? Just have to make the settings folder?

Its_Just_Jib • 2 years ago

@gimn85 yeah that's perfect, even keeps the white colour scheme. Great stuff. Thanks very much Sir!!

Would be nice if we could see player role like for staff but I guess that's intended, unlucky i will pass
Seth7 • 2 years ago

Your work is fabulous and greatly appreciated!!!

i love this skin..... to make it perfect it would take just 4 optional widgets during the match.... And the instant result during the match would be yummy too..... Thanks for the attention from a big fan of the skin

@Its_Just_Jib - delete the following files from the panels/match folder:

Match in between highlights panel
Match touchline tablet
Its_Just_Jib • 2 years ago

Great work here. Absolutely loving the skin, but is there any chance we could get the vanilla tablet during the match's? Or at least more options on the drop downs in the analytical mode. I get the idea is to make things more realistic/harder but it just feels very limited to me. Its the only thing I see wrong with the skin, everything else is perfect but I find the lack of info on the tablet too extreme and a bit off putting.
gimn85 • 2 years ago

@lucasnake - I've sent you a DM - let me know what version and resolution you are playing at, and I'll try and throw together something bespoke.
lucasnake • 2 years ago

Well, the issue is that it's kinda hard to see the player positions, especially since i play with the "show only natural positions" option, so i have to rely on the positions map to see what the player's non-natural positions are. I feel it could be enlarged a bit, maybe double the current size, if it would not interfere with other things.

gimn85 • 2 years ago

@Esteves12 - I've replied to your DM. You will need to replace the code in panels/player/player overview panel.xml with the attributes code from the base skin. I have annotated the code in my skin so it is easy to locate things you may wish to change. This may have knock on effects.

@lucasnake - a fair criticism. What are the issues you are facing with a small positions map?
lucasnake • 2 years ago

2.0 Is awesome, overall better than the previous version, great job. My only initial complaint is about the positions map in player profile being too small.
