Policy about Using Vitrex elements
All partial use of this skin, into other custom skins made for release, must be authorized by the Vitrex author/owner and credited by the maker.

Updated: 17 Dec 2015 - v2.1
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.

    Hi, thanks for your skin, but i have 1 bug - i don't see your new scoreboard for 3d match.
  • holtenprod's avatar
    Hey! Good looking skin! I'm just wondering how you got your "Match Stats"-screen looking like the one in the photo? With colours and bars I mean.
  • ArsWeng's avatar
    Thanks for the skin, but when downloading it on my mac, screen is black and nothing shows on the screen
  • LFC's avatar
    Great skin, looks really nice but are there any plans to make separate versions for different screen resolutions? Would love to able to use it as my main skin.
  • jemo81's avatar
    thanks for the best skin out there atm
  • zulis123's avatar
    hello is there anyone who uses skin VITREX 16 even with those fads ?? I tried the instructions and the game was not showing me that if I would not send anyone even with those fads ??
  • EnriqueIG8's avatar
    Emil, I have the same problem at @footy1

    My laptop screen is only 1366x768 so unfortunately some of the boxes don't come out as well. Is it possible to modify it to fit my screen as well? Absolutely lovely skin!

  • sudeepdinakar's avatar
    You are killing me. Just wow. WOW. Keep up the great work. Will download any and all skins you put out. Cheers.
  • lorenzo81's avatar
    hi emil, how to change staff profile face picture look smooth like this on your skin?
  • hguy89's avatar
    Great skin
    By the way, is there any way to change the star rating colors back to normal?
  • footy1's avatar
    Hi Emil, this looks amazing. Unfortunately on my 1366x768 monitor it doesn't fit, so please could you do an optimisation if you find the time? I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated by many. Cheers.
  • kinmar's avatar
    EmilDebski , I bounced on the problem of David Crash : I also have a slight worries about the font. I play in French, and we have accents, some letters (é, è, etc.) that do not appear on the menu text.
  • David Crash's avatar
    Great Job, Emil. Can you add support fonts for russian language?

  • Ede's avatar
    Hey Emil, I've noticed this thing at the very beginning when I started to use the skin, but didn't remember to mention earlier. Is this a bug or have you intentionally put that this way? This is from the match view.

    I mean, shouldn't it include the players' numbers and be shirt-shaped?

  • thewayofeverything's avatar
    Oh maaaan no 1336x768 optimization?
  • kbensel's avatar
    ErayKaracada, loklokno123, and hellyeah - I found that if you adjust the "Size of Text and Images" to 85% on the Preferences screen (right below where you set the window resolution) you can see the entire logos. They are of course smaller. If you set it at 95% you can see nearly all the logo but it is cut off at the bottom.

    As Emil said, running at 1920x1080 (not windowed) solves the problem without needing to adjust the size of the Text and Images.
  • kbensel's avatar
    Emil - Thank you for the explanation. My monitor resolution is 1920x1080 but I play windowed, so that must be the issue.

    When I changed to full screen (1920x1080) that solved the problem. Thanks again for your help and your great mods!

    Is there a way to get rid of the blurred loading screens? I know there is a download for it but apparently it dont work with this skin. Thx!
  • Guigui_MO's avatar
    Hi Emil,

    I want to know if is there a way to resize those boxes : http://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/51/1450625821-bigger-active-example.jpg
    I want it a little more smaller length.

    Sorry for my poor english.
  • EmilDebski's avatar
    kbensel and ErayKaracadal:

    You are playing at lower resolutions. As clearly stated in the descirption of the skin above, it's made for 1920x1080. You simply don't have enough space on your screen, that why the player profile is cut as it. Luckily i have made seperate mods for the player screen for low res players. Get them here, and extract to the panels folder inside of the Vitrex16 skin folder:
