Yeah I updated to it before I downloaded the skin :/ my game is pretty much completely ****** now lol, can't play, can't go into preferences to change the skin back and I tried deleting the skin from the FM11 folder and it's completely screwed with the game now and all it comes up with is a black screen that says processing. Guess I gotta reinstall.

 

[KevyMatts]

All sorted

Theres hundreds that have downloaded the skin and you're the only person that has had this problem.. Very unusual and not sure why it's happened m8

Hey, any idea why the info boxes in 3d view disappears when you enter the tactics screen and return back? Can i fix this in any way?

Beautiful skin, in my many years of playing FM I don't think I've found one that is as flexible and pretty as this piece of work.

My only question is if I am able to add a new background?

Looking in the backgrounds folder I see for example the 'pitch' background 5.bmp is 2560 x 1440 pixels, if I was to make a background of my own what steps would I need to take to integrate it into the skin, with the in-game background changer(a stroke of genius) I have to assume there is more to it than editing an image to the right size naming it 6.bmp and sticking it in the folder.

I know you've done a lot here r1cky but if it's not too much trouble for you I'd love a quick guide on how to achieve this.

Of course if anyone else knows how to do this they could step up and save r1cky the bother.

Cheers for the feedback, much appreciated 8-|

To incorporate your own skin you must first of all have it (obviously) and then put it inside the skins folder and name it as '6'

Then go to the Panels folder and open 'menubar.xml' with notepad
Scroll down till you see this command line :

<!-- BG SELECTOR -->
<widget class="header_popup" text="" appearance="icons/quick links/bg" size="8" colour="black">
<list id="items">'

With a list of entries looking like this :

<record id="sbg6">
<string id="text" value="My Background" />
<flags id="event_id" value="bgs6"/>
<flags id="event_target" value="bgs6"/>
</record>

Copy and paste this, and add it to the line of commands, (Underneith sbg5 - At the end where it says </record>, press enter so you go to the next line down, press tab a couple of times to get it in-line and then paste the above there)
You can name it to anything you want to appear in the skin, just change the ''My background'' to whatever you want to name it.
Then when finished, close and save the 'menubar.xml'

Then inside the 'Panels' folder again, open 'Global Panels.xml' with Notepad.
Go to the following line of commands :

<!-- BACKGROUNDS FOR CYCLING -->

Then copy this from here :

<widget class="background" id="bgd6" file="backgrounds/6" hidn="true">
<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0"/>
</widget>

And paste it under the bgd6 (Just above <!-- END OF BACKGROUNDS FOR CYCLING--> )

Then close and save 'Global Panels.xml'

Then re-load the skin in fm and you're done (H)

This skin is exactly what I've been looking for. Excellent!

How did you take that screenshot of the main menu? The "Alt+F9" combo works only when a game is loaded.

 

[Irish Scouse]

Take a normal printscreen, paste into paint, rezize and save as JPEG.

Already tried that before. The Printscreen only takes screencaps of my desktop and not the main menu.

 

[r1cky]

Make game windowed
