Sas24 - Download Options

The download link will take you to a mediafire folder that will always contain the newest versions of the skin. Then it's just a case of finding the exact skin that you want.

There are 4 different options: of Sas2025Final
  • Sas2025Final.fmf - The main skin
  • Sas2025Final-Background (background selector)
  • Sas2025Final-Hidden.fmf - With Show hidden attributes button
  • Sas2025Final-Hidden-Background.fmf (hidden attributes with background selector)
  • Sas2025Final Readme

There are 4 different options: of Sas24
  • Sas24.March.2.fmf - the main skin
  • Sas24.Mar.2-hidden.fmf - hidden attributes
  • Sas24.Mar.2-laptop.fmf - version optimized for laptops
  • Sas24.Mar.2-laptop-hidden.fmf - same as above for laptops

There is also added zip packed files of the skin for easy access - see the FAQ in the download folder.

The last 2 will only function properly if you have the in-game editor switched on in your save.

Screen Resolution

Desktop version is optimized for 1920x1080 at 100% - 95% is preferred.
You can use higher / lower resolution / zoom, but expect some wonky stuff here and there (can't make everyone happy) :)
Laptop version is optimized for 1366x768 at 85% zoom.
If you have a "big" laptop or an external screen - you may benefit from using the Desktop version, try both so see which one that looks the best - they are 99% the same.

How to install the Sas24 skin on FM24

1. Download the skin version you prefer. Your download options are explained above.

Move the downloaded .fmf file to your skins folder.:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\skins\

Run Football Manager 2024 and go to Preferences > Interface.
You should see "Sas24” as an option in the skin drop-down of the General options section.
Hit the Confirm button.

The skin is as seen, and may or may not have further updates.

Sas24 FAQ

Why do I see a background picture over the whole skin, and I haven't used the background selector.
You have a background picture folder in your graphics folder, if you move that folder outside the graphics folder, clear the cache and reload the skin. It will be gone.

My panels keep resetting.
Go into preferences and untick "automatically overrite custom panels" and Untick "use caching to decrease loading time" aswell
- Clear the cache - bottom left "reset" dropdown - Reload the skin
- Set your panels, continue a day, save your game, close and restart FM - It seems to be a issue in the default skin aswell for some.

The % isn't showing.
Go to preferences - untick "use caches files" then clear the cache (bottom left "reset dropdown"), pick skin, reload skin, restart game and the % will return. Changing skin may cause it to vanish then just redo the above.

Half of the tactic pitch is overlapping.
Use a higher zoom (lower numbers % = higher zoom) or use the laptop version - it's the resolution of your monitor that causes it as I've changed the pitch size.

For more questions and answers, refer to the dedicated SAS24 FAQ .txt file.

    i did found a xml file 'bookmenu',
    if you need to adjust, swap or remove the (i) it's done in the generic/bookmenu.xml
    but i don't understand this.
    I think this problem can be solved by changing the values ​​in some of the strings, so I am looking for it by changing each place where the value is entered in the string. I know you are very busy but thank you for your quick reply.
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @kang hyo bin - The bookmark menu isnt really made for icons only, but should work.

    hi, sasmaz. Thank you for the great skin!
    I have a question. I'm using the 'Sidebar icon only' feature, and when I activate this feature, only the question mark icon is displayed. The question mark icon is even lopsided, giving it a disorganized look. Isn't it possible to align the icons in the middle of the sidebar or display the Bookmarks as they are when the 'Sidebar icons only' function is not used? (The Bookmarks text will probably have to be smaller.) I think this can be solved with a panel, but which panel does it have? What string can I adjust it to? Once again, sorry for my bad english, and thank you for your Skin.

    alright, thanks man, really appreciate, i will drop a feedback
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @Badmancarter - it's not something i have experienced, and i watch streamers using the skin and i play solo and network saves - maybe untick the "used caching for faster loading, clear the cache and reload the skin" and tick it back on + don't skin swap as there may be things confllicting.

    you can also try and add the mod that removes the tactics from the bottom panel in matches and see if you're one of the ppl that has issues with them being on.
  • Badmancarter's avatar
    Hey man, keep up the good work, I actually have an issue concerning this skin. It takes about 25 minutes to complete the second half of a match, I’ve tested with another skin, no problem at all, but the issue returns once I change to this skin
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @maciejko7788 - Sas24.mar.2-Hidden is just a version where you can see the hidden attributes of players and staff if you have the ingame editor. it's the little triangle next to players or staff's name.

    If you click that a hidden page shows with the hidden attributes (if you have the ingame editor and it's allowed to be used in the save)

    everthing else is 100% the same in the normal and the hidden version :)

    else i would have called it "Attributeless" version
  • maciejko7788's avatar
    @sasmaz
    I mean the "Sas24 attribute hidden" version - yes, in this version the players' attributes are presented as colors, but when I go to the tactical panel and the "football player" tab, the profile with the attributes presented as numbers is displayed again, which spoils the whole fun; /
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @maciejko7788 - yes?? this isnt a attributeless skin
  • maciejko7788's avatar
    @sasmaz Unfortunately, I can still see the players' attributes in the tactical panel when I go to the "football player" tab. Could you please fix this? The same thing happens during a match when I want to change tactical instructions for individual players.
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @zacharius - I can't replica the problem, it must be either the facepack your using (DF11) the config file or the club you're at or something else. i've attanched 2 pictures for you to see, Man City was the first team that came to mind with thinking of Club world cup

    Just can't find in which XML file is the team info where I see captain, average age etc
  • broddoy's avatar
    I only changed the background
  • zacharius's avatar
    Hey mate, here's a screenshot of the problem: https://imgur.com/FNDK617

    The caching method didn't work. Thanks
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @broddoy - i would start over and make small changes at a time, that was you know which change did what and which bugged out what you tried
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @zacharius - if i were you, i would go into the preferences and untick "use caching for faster loading" then clear the cache and reload the skin, then tick it back on. it might have been something in the cache that bugged out"

    but i'm glad you found a way, i'm still testing and i havnt seen the issue yet, but i'll continue a season out then sim a few season and test another season.. if it's something in the skin, i hope i'll locate it, so i can fix it.
  • broddoy's avatar
    Hi, how can I move down a bit the team stats like captain/vice captain in the main team panel? I was trying to make some cosmetic changes to your skin but now text is not inside the dark rectangles anymore, can't find the attributes in the xml files :)
  • zacharius's avatar
    Was using the 1st March update for the past month but just updated it before commenting, it didn't fix the issue.

    Fyi, switching to different skins/the default skin fixes the issue so it must be an issue specific to this skin.

    Thanks for your help!
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @zacharius - are you on the latest update of the skin ?
    are you skin swapping as it might affect it too..

    anyway i'll take a look as i havnt played much FM this year i might have missed something, thank you for the information
  • zacharius's avatar
    But I'm not using custom faces... The default faces show up as usual in the player profiles and other individual reports but don't show up at all with the TOTW, TOTY, or team-based awards unless I click to their profile individually first, then it fixes the problem for that particular player only. It also affects other teams newgen players not just my own.
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @zacharius - remember to add r- to newgen faces

    so r-IDnumber

    it's something SI changed, so not something i can change sadly
  • zacharius's avatar
    Hello, why are the faces for newgen players not showing up in any TOTW/TOTY etc emails?
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @Conardo - just on the right side of the attributes, just below the weight and height
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @kenhaus - If you go into the preferences and look for "landing page" one of the 3 will say attributes, just change it to profil

    Why it does that by default is on SI side as i havnt changed it.
