FM 2017 Misc Graphics - Football Manager Backgrounds Super Pack
Welcome to the biggest and best backgrounds pack available.
For many years I have wanted to make a large pack using the many backgrounds by myself and others.
Well here it is, got to be a must for every FM fan a super pack full of quality images to enhance your gaming experience.
All have the correct xml/config files to work correctly and I have fully tested the whole pack with no problems.
Certain backgrounds will show on certain screens....
City pack images will show on all Cub screens.
Stadiums will show on all Team screens, etc.

What's in the pack?

COMPETITIONS
CLUB STADIUMS
CITY PACK
MINI STADIUM PACK (fmc/fmt)
CONFEDERATIONS
STADIUMS (overview)
NATIONAL STADIUMS
NATIONAL FLAGS
PLAYER BACKGROUNDS

Thousands of backgrounds all in one very impressive pack.
Files have all been converted to jpg to reduce the size but for the amount you get here it was always going to be large.

PACK SIZE: 8,52 GB (Red Button)

    I am a Milan fan and the Milan background is fine for me and I am managing them
  • Valkyrie's avatar
    Thank you for this pack. However, I have a problem with AC Milan squad background. The background wallpaper seems to be the default one, but only for AC Milan. The other team's background appear to be perfectly fine, but when I click on my AC Milan squad, the custom picture doesn't show up, only the default one. However, on my U20 and U18 sqauds, the appropriate image appears. Can you help me ? I've uploaded a screenshot here:

    Daz one question please , im still unsure if to use Stadium backgrounds or DNK Backgrounds on squad screens , if i ever decide to include the DNK Backgrounds instead of the stadium backgrounds i will have something similiar right ? :

    DNK Backgroubd ( Club colour and logo background ) on squad screens
    Cities Backgrounds on Club screens
    Player Backgrounds on individual player screens
    Competition backgrounds on the competition screens

    I will still have the mini stadiums images in the club stadium window in the club info screen right ?
    Thanks once again for bringing together all these great backgrounds man , its priceless for the game immersion :)
  • ArsenalDude's avatar
    @DAZS8 thanks for the quick reply! Will you be making your wonderful skin this year? They are always perfect! :)
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    Ok thanks Daz , i will just leave the Super Pack as it is than , its already amazing :)
  • Bard's avatar
    Can you release the link with only backgrounds, without logos, trophies and other stuff?

    Thanks
  • Daz8's avatar
    @Wolverine
    Its not possible because some of the DNK Backgrounds have to use the same ids/config as the stadiums, so as you see impossible.
    The only way is how I described below.....so you have to get rid of somethind (example cities or stadiums) to get the DNK Backgrounds in your game
  • Daz8's avatar
    @ArsenalDude
    That is your skin........not the backgrounds.
    The badge is added by the skin you are using on top of my player backgrounds, this is a setting I hate as it ruins my backgrounds LOL
  • ArsenalDude's avatar
    Hi DAZS8! thanks for creating this huge database :) One quick question can you remove the badge from the player's page i.e. in the screenshot i have added
    https://imgur.com/a/3gVkn

    I would love to just see the player and not the badge. I hope you can help! thanks!!
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    I see , but if i delete all stadium folders than that means that i will not have the stadium backgrounds anymore for any of the other screens , what i wanted is to have the Dnk backgrounds just for the squad selection screen but keep the stadiums backgrounds for other squad related screens , keep the cities backgrounds for the club screens and obviously the player backgrounds for individual player screens , Basicaly having all the Dnk , Stadiums , Cities , player and competition backgrounds working in this superpack , is this even possible ?
  • Daz8's avatar
    @wolverine
    Yes but you would have to remove all the stadium folders from each nation and replace with the DNK Backgrounds.
    Or if you put the DNK bACKGROUNDS into the graphics folder (example fm17/graphics....) but rename their folder to have a 1 in title (example 1dnk) they would be picked out by the game before the ones in the megapack.
    Hope you understand that!!

    PORTUGAL STADIUMS FIX V2 is working perfectly now thanks Daz !

    Just a question please , if i wanted to is it possible to include the DNK Club coloured backgrounds for one of the squad or clubs screens Enter text for the link here... in this Super Pack while also keeping the Cities and Stadium backgrounds ? for ez put the DNK club background only in squad selection screen and leaving the stadium backgrounds for other squad related screens while cities backgrouns go for club screens ?

    @umc4
    Its easy enough to add your own pictures to the pack if you want to replace any.
    I already have the new stadium pic
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    Already fixed ? ok wow... thanks man that was fast ! ... thanks Dazs8 !! this is great

    PORTUGAL STADIUMS FIX V2
    Updated complete Portuguese Stadiums Folder
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx1vPRBimOFnb05XcjR1eGJ0TGc/view?usp=sharing
    PLEASE DELETE PREVIOUS STADIUMS FOLDER FROM YOUR PORTUGAL FOLDER & REPLACE WITH THIS NEW ONE
  • umc4's avatar
    never mind, now it works. for some reason it was the old stadium picture at besiktas.

    again awesome work! thank you
  • umc4's avatar
    hey,

    awesome work man. could you also include new pictures of the new stadium from Besiktas Istanbul, from turkey. Vodafone Arena is there stadium called.
    That would be dope
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    Oh from scratch ? ... ;/ . Dazs8 just know that me and many others are very grateful for the work you put in for the Football Manager community , you make the game experience so much better for us.
  • Daz8's avatar
    I am going to have to start again with the Portuguese stadium pack...dam it
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    Thanks for your dedication man , i checked again this morning and even tried to pinpoint the correct stadiums id but its difficult with just only numbers and no club names attached to the images . i will just delete the Portugal folder for now and wait until its fixed i guess :) , thanks again mate
  • Daz8's avatar
    @Wolverine78
    I can only apologise for this,I have no idea what has happened here, all my stadiums I had for Portugal appear to have been replaced by these, it looks like its best to delete the Portugal folder all together and I will try to restore it to its former self
  • Daz8's avatar
    @Wolverine78
    I did not do the Portuguese Stadiums...they were done by FLUT....so sorry about that
    @Valkyrie
    Thats how the skin is on the DEFAULT skin
  • Valkyrie's avatar
    Hey, how did you increased transparency of the green overlay ? I want to do that myself because otherwise I cant see the backgrounds properly.
  • Wolverine78's avatar
    Just downloaded the fix for the portuguese stadiums backgrounds but im having wrong stadiums pictures in the squad backgrounds , for ez for Boavista i have Estadio Commentador Manuel de Oliveira Violas instead of Estadio do Bessa Seculo XXI , I also have wrong picture for Benfica and other portuguese club squad backgrounds, am i the only one ? maybe im doing something wrong .
