Policy about Using Vitrex elements

Updated: 15 Dec 2015 - v2.0

Screen Resolution
This skin is optimized for higher resolutions (minimum of 1920x1080) and might cause errors if you try to use it at a lower resolution.

IMPORTANT: When updating this skin, make sure to ERASE the older version BEFORE installing the new. Don't extract into skins folder if you already have another Vitrex folder by the same name, this will merge them together and ruin the skin!

How to add Vitrex16 to FM 2016

IMPORTANT x2: When updating this skin, make sure to ERASE the older version BEFORE installing the new. Don't extract into skins folder if you already have another Vitrex folder by the same name, this will merge them together and ruin the skin!

  1. Download and extract the .zip file (using either 7-Zip for Windows or The Unarchiver for Mac).

  2. Place the "Vitrex16" folder here:
    Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2016\skins
    Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.

  3. Start FM16 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
    You should see Vitrex16 2.0 as option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
    Hit the Confirm button.

Please note this skin is provided as is. It has nothing to do with Sports Interactive or SEGA and won't be supported by them.

    Very nice skin but the added on time on the scoreboard is of the edge.I noticed you said it's fixed on Dazs8 facebook page but it's still the same.
  • IsthmianCorinthian14's avatar
    Very great looking skin.
    Must have been quite a bit of comprehensive work to make this.

    I have, although, a few minor tweaks I would propose:
    - the ability to turn off the tv icons would be nice (maybe it can be done without I have seen how to do it?)
    - stadium pictures in the background of the actual stadium pages - instead of the default background there is right now. (yes, I do have the mega pack needed, and I see it is on other screens too. Would just be nice on this screen too.)

    Great work again - I must admit I will use this skin for the forseable future.

    But can somebody tell me why the default SI skin does not allow background pictures of anything?
  • Doddo04's avatar
    Great thanks!! Works this in flut skin to?
  • EmilDebski's avatar
    Doddo04: I am working on making 5-10 different newspapers, with Kicker already one of them on the list :-).
  • Doddo04's avatar
    Verry great skin!!! can you teach me how to make this competiton news sides? I would like a german one like kicker news or sportbild.de

    When I hit the download now button, it gets to this site: http://www.mediafire.com/download/s0ifhcz2shcwy3a/Vitrex16+v2.0+new+release.zip how can i download it from there?
  • StatisticalApproach's avatar
    yeah the correct kit overlay is in there. Still the same. Can't see any boxed image files at all, so not sure where the game is picking this up from. And no, didn't touch anything. Thanks for your help, I'm sure it's something simple. Hope we can work it out.
  • EmilDebski's avatar
    Make sure you have a kit shade overlay in this folder, and not boxed overlays:

    Football Manager 2016\skins\Vitrex16 2.0\graphics\pictures\kits\2d\outfield\back\tactics

    But should be okay from default, did you touch anything?

  • StatisticalApproach's avatar
    adding those graphics helps. It's nearly as your screenshots but still has an a curved square outline around the kit, I've tried deleting those outline files but no change -- https://fmshots.com/bk/AlrEOnk.png
  • EmilDebski's avatar
    Hi SA.

    How did it look before you put that mod in?

    And do you have kit or box overlays in this folder:

    Football Manager 2016\skins\Vitrex16 2.0\graphics\pictures\kits\2d\outfield\back\tactics\patterns

  • StatisticalApproach's avatar
    Excellent work.

    When adding the "bigger active" tactics view this happens -- https://fmshots.com/bk/vBWnvod.png

    The small version is fine but not sure what's happening with the bigger one, if you could help that would be great. Thanks
  • EmilDebski's avatar
    Appreciate your comment Stam, thank you very much! :-)
  • Stam's avatar
    I'll also agree with Darrell. Vitrex v2 is the best FM16 skin so far.
    Brilliant stuff mate!
    Btw, I edited the text & formatting a bit, I hope you don't mind :)
