Football Manager 2024 Skins - Mustermann Iconic v1.2 FM24 (Light & Dark)

Mustermann Iconic

A dark skin taking a radical approach to the way Football Manager 2024 can be played.



ATTRIBUTES REIMAGINED

Grouped by training category, attributes are displayed in context with the area of the game they impact. Numbers are no more - with simple Icons introduced to represent an attribute range (Excellent, Good, Average & Poor). Untethered from obsessing over the difference between a 13 and 14, Mustermann Iconic puts priority on practical performance.




MONEYBALL IS THE OPIATE OF THE MASSES

With the introduction of even more stats in this year's edition of FM, Mustermann Iconic gives them more prominence within the player profile. A brand new pizza chart helps take analytic data to the next level, whilst the introduction of archetype badges gives you a snapshot of how your players are impacting games.




MATCHDAY EXPERIENCE

Shamelessly stealing the touchline tablet from the Console version of the game, all your match feedback is available in one place. There's a catch, though - you will no longer be able to see the action on the pitch whilst you have your nose buried deep in the data. A new post-match provides a customisable summary of completed games.




OVERVIEW OVERHAUL

Key information pages have been overhauled to give a more natural feel to sourcing your knowledge. The Mustermann Broadcasting Network brings you in-game news alongside an assortment of tactics videos, guides, blogs and useful resources from awesome FM creators within the community.




ADAPTIVE TO YOUR RESOLUTION

Designed to work from 1360x768 upwards, the skin will adapt the layout to your resolution. Use of vertical scrolling removes those pesky boxes with not enough space for the information, whilst ensuring those at lower resolutions don't miss out. There are also 12 different colour themes to pick from so you can find just the right aesthetic for your FM experience.

    Appreciate the response. I was looking to get the arrows next to the attribute range icons as that's where I get the dopamine.

    I've been using the Development -> Progress screen but it doesn't give me a day by day or week by week quick view to see who's stats are going up. With the current system, I have to click through everyone's training one by one.

    Is there any fix I can program in the files to achieve what I'm after Mr Mustermann? Happy to code if you can point me in the right direction as to what I need to change.

    Much obliged

    Anyone have any idea how I get the training arrows to come back? I need the dopamine hit from knowing my training is working, so some green arrows would be great

    Use the Development -> Progress screen

    Respond to my own - I redownloaded / reunzipped the skin. Seems like som of the files weren't proper unzipped and were empty. Now it works like a charm. <3

    I love this skin and am looking forward to use it, but I get multiple parsing error messages. It won't find the xml files. One of the errors is this: "XML parsing error!: no element found at line 1 of classes/archetypes/archetype_popup_anchor_pressures_attempted

    error offset invalid - corrupted buffer?"

    I reckon the game don't find the files in their folder, but they're there. I've put the folders inside the "skins" folder and the game finds the skin, but won't load it. Is there a quick fix to this? :)

    By all means, hynjoon, go for it!

    I'm a Korean FM player and I just stumbled upon your post—what an amazing skin! Thanks for your work. Is it okay if I feature your skin on Korea's largest FM website?

    Hi,
    I love the style and intent behind this skin. I analyze the stats a lot, but I can't use them yet.

    Help me please

    The match stats don't scale with the role. No matter what role I select, I always get the same graph. Is this normal?

    Thx

    I'm afraid, I don't understand exactly what the issue is here. Can you provide a screenshot?

    I've been tinkering with the xml files all day trying to get the opacity of the background to work so I can see background pictures. Can you point me in the right direction? I can do the coding work, I just don't know how this skin is setup! I can send you the files once complete so you can share them with the community if you'd like just please, for the love of god, tell me where I'm looking for the backgrounds! :D
  • jajajajaja's avatar
    Hi, great skin, very innovative and extremely well designed!

    Just a couple of questions if I may:

    - Would it be possible to make an alternative version that allows background pictures? I feel the atmosphere they add increases the immersion greatly.

    - Is there any way of adding more granularity to the attribute colour coding system you've created? Perhaps being able to add an optional colour between 1 to 6 for us lower league managers and possibly between 11-15?

    Again, fantastic work, most appreciated!

    Heya. I love this whole concept, im having so much fun. I've a question though.
    My u19 matches and friendlies do not accumulate any data, so im not really getting any good internal feedback from non-competitive matches. Makes it hard to assess my youth teams. Is there anything i can do to change it?

    Are you able to download on Mac?

    Yes, of course. The same rules still apply regarding minimum supported resolution.

    Hi,
    is there a way to see the reputation of a player?
    Finished my first season with this skin and Im just in love with it.

    Ivano1910:
    I dont know why but overall and profile of a player is empty for me? I dont get it why is it like that since everything else is normal

    What resolution is your screen?
    What "Size of Text & Images" setting do you have inside FM?
    What "Scale" and "Display Resolution" settings do you have on Windows?

    I'm always chasing perfection, that's my nature :)
  • gimn85's avatar
    @serkandabasar78 - There are identical features in the possession and defending sections too. Maybe it's faulty or, maybe, it's because those attributes are targeted by the training groups they are related to. As is explained in the description above.

    But I do thank you for once again trying the skin. After you complained it was soupy here, and on other sites (a complaint you've put out on most skins, it appears), I'm honoured you decided to give it another chance.

    maybe instead of shitting in every topic, a great expert will do something himself and show how it should be right? :D

    Faulty theme. There are two identical features in the attack section of the player profile. When you play in Turkish
  • gimn85's avatar
    Sorry Arthurjta, that is not possible with this skin. Fortunately, the attributes are arranged by training group, and those key attributes tend to logically follow those groupings. E.g. playmakers tend to need those attributes in passing and final third. Defenders tend to need those attributes in tackling and positioning.
