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)

    and where can i find it
  • Eusébios's avatar
    Ok, i just deleted all logos folders from the megapack and all seems to work good.

    Thanks
  • Eusébios's avatar
    Great work!

    Is there any link just for the stadiums a citys?
    I do not use standard logos and it maybe conflict with the ones i use if i put this super pack in my graphics...

    Thanks

    Read previous comments and OP.....I have added an alternative link OR dont use Chrome
  • duran2811's avatar
    Having problems with downloading the file. Gets to bout 74% and then chrome crashes saying didn't have enough memory
  • sudeepdinakar's avatar
    Definitely true. I know this takes a lot of work and updating it monthly is very difficult. Just an opinion which can be implemented in the future updates. Anyway, these backgrounds are more than good enough. :)

    @sudeepinkar
    A players face does not become outdated though (no kit showing)
  • sudeepdinakar's avatar
    Yup. Just browsed through a few premier league players. A player celebrating is always better than just a player's face. (Compare Saul's with Fabregas's or Alexis's backgrounds) But the idea and execution is fantastic, obviously. You guys always deliver. Maybe you could have players who have turned coaches have their backgrounds in their heydays. Ex: Dennis Bergamp in an Arsenal shirt. Other than that, this background pack is a must for every FM fanatic.

    P.S I absolutely love your work.
    Cheers.

    @sudeepinkar
    really!!
  • sudeepdinakar's avatar
    Amazing background packs. But one slight improvement might be to have the players celebrating or smiling at least in their profile backgrounds. Over half the pictures are just their faces with their mouth open. Hopefully, this might be updated. Cheers and keep up the great work.

    @DAZS8 brilliant that sorts the problem! Thanks for your help. Loving the pack!
  • Daz8's avatar
    @Ollieac
    I have found the problem, the config file in the Portugal's stadiums folder is wrong
    Replace it with this one........

  • Ollieac1's avatar
    @DAZS8 thanks for getting back to me. I'll double check but pretty sure there are no other backgrounds in my graphics folder.
    All the other teams/ leagues work exactly as they should. It's just the images in the stadiums folder in Portugal which don't seem to be working.
  • Daz8's avatar
    @Ollieac
    Inside views of stadiums show on Squad/Team screens
    Outside views show on the Stadium/Club overview (small pic)
    Cities show on Club screens
    Thats how it should/does work but if you have other backgrounds etc elsewhere(not in my pack) it will cause conflicts
  • Ollieac1's avatar
    I'm having an issue with the backgrounds for Portuguese teams on FM17. The inside stadium pictures aren't showing for any of the teams, I just get the default league picture. Any ideas why?
    Otherwise fantastic backgrounds, thanks for you hard work!
