skins- how to load up

[kieranplaister1988]

iv downloaded the file and extracted it to the skins folder but in preferences it doesnt show up as an option

are you sure u extracted it to the right place? Write the directory you did so we can see if it's right or not.

I did the same.

saved as
C:/users/martin/mydocuments/sportsinteractive/footballmanager2010/skins

but it doesn't show it in preferences

Help anyone??

Me too! Boxes are checked and unchecked, folders are right. Doesn't seem like anyone's got a fix for this, I've posted on another thread too and am getting no answers.

Don't you have to create a graphics folder for Skins,Facepacks etc?

If you have done it exactly like this guide tells you and its still not working then i dont know whats wrong, sorry. It may be the skin.

I've sorted it, for some reason the destination was:

docs-SI-fm10-bbcsport2010-bbcsport2010-graphics panels etc.

2 bbc sport folders, one opened into the next. Thought this seemed weird so I deleted the entire folder and re-downloaded, re-extracted and only one was recreated. I don't know why this made a difference but it did. Maybe I made a folder and extracted into it the first time, I can't remember.

Take a look martin - this might well be your problem too, since it seems we were having a similar issue.

Thanks for the replies and efforts to help guys.
