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.

    Hey man, love the skin. Been using since last year, by far my favorite, so keep up the great work.

    One issue I'm recently having is - after downloading the most recent (march) update, the skin now seems to automatically default to the "Attributes" page of the player Overview when viewing a player, instead of the "Profile" part like it used to. It's driving me crazy and I don't see a way to redirect the default on that. Is there any easy fix for this?
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @NinoNine - if you read the FAQ in the download folder, there you will find an explanation on how to remove the tactics at the bottom of the screen in matches, those are causing lag for some ppl for some strange reason. it's just a file from the mods folder that you need to copy over to the skin and replace a file

    One of my favourite skins however theres one slight issue that I'm wondering if can be fixed on my end. My PC is great, everything runs fine. However, when I watch another teams match, the gameplay lags. E.g. I'm watching the AI world cup games or my U19's match, the game lags when I watch other teams matches. Theres no lag when I watch my own teams matches. Is there any fix for this? Ive changed skins and also gone to default skins and it starts working fine again.

    Thank you for a swift reply. weird it can show a wrong number...
    anyways, ty for the skin, it's really good work!
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @uncle_pewpew - yeah i was meaning to remove one of them, but forgot..
    if i remember correct, the one what shows away fans aswell are the correct number.
  • uncle_pewpew's avatar
    Am i the only one where the skin seem to think there are 2 different attendance numbers in the same game? - i have no idea how to upload a picture,
    but the picture i have the attendance in the top left box says 19578, and in the bottom left box it says 13908, it seems really weird
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @sebel - glad it worked, but as said previously. you have to seek coding help on the SI skinning forum, this isnt the place
  • sebel's avatar
    @sasmaz - Many thanks! It works perfectly!

    Another request:

    I've installed the MOD/Match-bottom-bar. Everything fine but, if poss, can you explain how to modify it so that the players are less squeezed and the part with menatlty, subs etc is a bit smaller?
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @sebel look for <!-- foot -->

  • sebel's avatar
    Thanks @sasmaz ! I'll check on SI for the popup.

    Regarding the 3 panels, where is exactly starting the bottom part of the laptop file? Do you mind telling me which line number?

    95% is fixing the problem ... but honestly playing on 95% is slightly too small for me ;)
  • sasmaz's avatar
    @sebel if you look at my laptop version it only have 3 panels at the bottom, then just copy the bottom part from the laptop player overview over to the desktop player overview and you should have 2 panels only

    the player popup you would have to delete one of the panels, best place for coding help in that size, would be on the SI skinning hideout as this isnt the place for that.

    Have you tried setting the desktop version to 95% scaling, if it's because the bottom part is squished ?
    also make sure your windows scaling and layout is set to 100% aswell
  • sebel's avatar
    Hey @sasmaz ! I play desktop 1920x1080. Can you tell me how to have only 3 sections at the bottom of the player overview, so that the season stats are displayed in full in the middle?

    https://imagetolink.com/ib/DoGBxHqoC1

    And the same with the player quick overview, with only 1 section at the bottom.

    https://imagetolink.com/ib/WY92KSJpTJ

    Thanks!

    @Conardo - Thank you and glad you like it.
    I removed City pictures as there were so many that could not get it to work last year and it became a big hazzle and a headache for me. thats the reason why it's not part of it this year.. - Sorry
  • Conardo's avatar
    Such a fantastic skin! At this point I would like to say a big thank you and praise. If there is a wish list: Could you add the option for a city pic? // Warm greetings from Germany

  • oyt's avatar

  • sasmaz's avatar
    @oyt - taken from the FAQ which can be found in the download folder


    Q: How can i adjust the "Custom DNA" to my own ingame Threshold values
    A: Grab the Zip packed version of Sas24 and unpack it into the skins folder (make sure you don't have a fmf file of the same version in there aswell)
    - Then go into "Sas24\classes\custom\mustermann" - Edit the 6 dna files with the same new threshold as you used ingame in "preferences/skin colors page"
    - Go to preferences - Untick "used caching to decrease loading time" - Clear the cache (bottom left "reset dropdown"), Reload skin and the "Custom DNA panel" as been updated.

    Hey, simple question. Sorry if it has been answered already. How to change the range for the custom DNA? I've tried looking at the sas24.fmf file with notepad++, and I've found some chart ranges that I can change. I just can't figure out which one to change for the custom DNA. Thanks ahead!
