FM 2021 FLUT skin dark - Version 16.0


Dear all

This FLUTSKIN version 16 is the final version of FLUTSKIN for FM21!!

A great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still improving the skin and gave me new ideas!!!

A special thank you to all of players who decided to distinguish my work with a donation!! Although just a small part of FM Players who use the skin made a donation (I edited the skin as a hobby and, as you know, completely free), I always feel honoured and happy when people recognize the work done and decide to contribute. So, I reinforce, I have to give a special thank you to that friends of FlutsKin!!!!!!

Also a recognized thank you to those one who help me answering the questions and requests and adapted the FlutSkin (namely and specially Rosek for the adapted version for 2560x1440, and Richbell, for the adapted version with hidden attributes!!!!! ).
And, of course I don't forget the skinners community who also indirectly contributed to FlutSkin with their creativity.

Also a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin) anf to Michael Murray since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work!!

Now is time to stop editing the skin for this season. I wish to return for FM22. Lets wait and see since no one is able to predict the future.

MAIN CHANGES IN v16.0
- Following the great idea of majesticeternity, Tyburn and a31632 (from Sports Interactive community) I included in several xmls a code for personalize the background in specific panels, namely club overview, player overview, board room, human profile and team training. These codes are not “activated” by default but if you want to have a different (customized) background in each one of that panels you just have to activate the codes. In the read me file I explain how you can do it.
- Nation overall panel
- Nation overview panel
- Human profile panel
- Player profile stadium option in player overview panel
- News panel


The Skin pack also includes:
1. “Round country flags”, “round continents logos” and default logos specially made in metallic style by BRIAN-Q from sourtitoutsi. Those graphics will be displayed in the title bar.
2. Background maps for confederations, also made by brian-q. Thank you brian by your great work and for your collaboration!!!

You can download the 2D packs prepared for Flutskin (titlebar and player overview panel). For that you should search for that kits pack elsewhere since the download link in FMScout is down due copyright issues.
However, if you prefer edit your own kits, I also included in the pack a .pdf file explaining how you can edit the kits for Flutskin.

You also can download the stadiums megapack and the citypics released by DAZS8 (thank you, my friend)
HERE, HERE and HERE


For those who want to make the game more difficult, now you also can download an adapted version of the skin (v. 15) with the attributes values hidden. This adapted version was an idea of richbell and, although with my help, it was richbell who also did the majority of the changes. Thank you my friend!
PLEASE NOE THAT FOR THIS VERSION WITH HIDDEN ATTRIBUTES WORKING WELL YOU SHOULD REMOVE THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF THE SKIN


Here is the link: DOWNLOAD THE V15 WITH HIDDEN ATTRIBUTES

Important note regarding TV LOGOS:
Although the default tv logo is the one I use, of course you can easily change it; for that you just have to go to skin/graphics/icons/tv logos. In that folder there is a alt folder with many TV logos. You just have to replace the tv logo.png and the tv [email protected] for that one you want. Of course you should rename the new logos as tv logo and tv logo@2x. You also can use other logos made by you. The procedure to use them is exactly the same. However, I should remember that yo should use logos with the right height. For tv logo you should use 25px and for the @2x you should use 50px.


As always FlutSkin is completely free to download and I hope you enjoy it. However, if you want, you can reward my work donating whatever amount you wish. Any small amount is really appreciated.

You can do so by clicking the button down below:


Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions..


How to add Flut Skin in FM21

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

Place the "fm2021flutskin_dark" folder here:
Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\skins

  1. Create the folder "skins" if it doesn't exist.
  2. Start FM21 and go to Preferences screen and then into the Interface tab.
  3. You should see FM 2021 Flut Skin dark - Version 16.0 as an option in the skin drop down of the Overview box.
  4. 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.

    FLUT good afternoon, same problem. With yesterday's new FM update the skin has become quite a bit slower. I hope you find a solution soon because I really appreciate the work you do.

    Since patch 21.2, my FM seems to be much slower with this skin (to show players profile, or squad screen for exemple). Not you ? I cleared cache, with FM skin it's very fast but not with Flut

    Hi. Sorry but is it possible to make the skin compatible for 1366x768 resolution? I would really love to use this skin!
  • snakest's avatar
    Hi, in the stadium overview I don't have the top left picture. Even after downloading the packs of cities and stadiums.
    Idk where to find this pictures.
  • Max_Power's avatar
    Hi again Flut! One thing I saw only a little while ago ... In the Home the panels that are there are the default ones even though I change them to my liking. How can I block them? Thanks
  • Flut's avatar
    creedreedI really don't remember anymore but I believe it was in Skinning Hideout SI last season...However there is also a page of stevemc there, for this season
    HERE
  • creedreed's avatar
    im curious where you got the manager images from?
  • Flut's avatar
    mindows: the link is working well (I tested it and is not broken)
  • mindows's avatar
    Hi... the link is broken
  • zabak's avatar
    Thank you very much. I love this skin
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi vedran_bukal: not yet, I'm affraid. In fact, as I already said only when I have time to work on it and when the dark will be almost "finished". Sorry.
  • vedran.bukal@gmail.com's avatar
    when we can expect the light version of skin?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi nikolaosaek: if i understood your question, you can change it in titlebar search panel.xml
    Regarding the alts, including sidebar team colour, onlywhen the skin will be "just finished" i will think in doing alts...Sorry.
    Regardng 75% zoom, I supoose now, with the 2.1 is not required. You can use 1920x1080 100%. And yes,you should remove the old versions and only after install the new because, somtimees, if you dont do that, thre are many conflicts (and also I changed x,ls from the old versions).
  • nikolaosaek's avatar
    One last. Is it better do delete the old one before we update your next version or just ovewrite?
  • nikolaosaek's avatar
    Also can you remind me at what file change the main top capital bold?
    Will you make alt profiles for players like last year? I pref them.
    And finally my favorite: Side bar to team color!!!!!!!!! Thanks man.
  • nikolaosaek's avatar
    Hi flut. Resolution is getting better. I will tell you also my way. I play the game at 75% zoom!! yes its possible. First go and put 100% zoom and load it, then CLOSE the game ang go at this path:
    C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\Preferences\version 4. Over there you will find a file called ui_zoom_level. Opeit and change the <float id="value" value="1.000000"/> to <float id="value" value="0.750000"/>. Openthe game and enjoy it at 75%
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi mistral (and also speedfreak): thanks!!

    zabak: You can do it inbox item.xml changing the code

    <container class="plain_box" appearance="boxes/bordered/solid/paper" red_replacement="primary" height="60">

    By
    <container class="plain_box" height="60">

    After you should find all colour=”secondary” and change by colour=”text”
