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.

    Hi !
    Question...is it possible to change the colors for the player's attributes boxes ? If so, how can I do that ?
    Thanks !

    Hi Zasinlord: thank you for reporting. In fact there is no bug. I removed that logo since I included it with a trick (since the game doesn't include them) and in many games that logo appears without the correct dimensions. Since many FM players report that problem with their games and ask me permanently how can they fix or remove that logo, I decided not include it in this version since now we can have almost all clubs and leagues of the world with the real 2D kits adapted for flutskin. Sorry. If you want, you can download the pack HERE

    https://pasteboard.co/JXG9aTQ.jpg As you can see Liverpool doesn't have logo on their shirt in the overview
  • Zastinlord's avatar
    https://ibb.co/6sgrBHH . There is no front size logo for player shirt, it's must be a bug, This is not happen before when I played it 3 months ago lol. https://ibb.co/2vqjnB0

    Phildw: Hi. Thanks for reporting. However, could you put screenshots showing clearly the problem?

    Reynders1982: you should download the kits changed for FlutSkin. You can do it HERE

    Keejteej: I really don’t know how to do that and if is a problema of the skin. Sorry.

    id777: the DF11 Style works overall well in the skin. However, for make it totally compatible it will be a hard work, since I use cutout style and the skin is edited for that style as default (because the DF11 have a solid rectangle many stuff should be move dor removed for not be in order to not be under the player picture). Thus, sorry, but I don’t intend to do it.

    Great skin and appreciate the hard work. I have just encountered a pretty fatal error however. The scenario was I was in the process of being offered another job and the 'must respond' page came up asking if I would like to move any of my current staff to the new club and also choose which current staff members at my new club I would like to release. This involved compensation etc. I made my choices and ensured that I hadn't exceeded the compensation amount allowed, but it would not let me 'confirm' the choices and therefore move on. There was no way around it other than to choose to ignore the offer to make staff decisions as then the game would progress. The only option I had was to change skins and get through this part and then revert back to your skin, which is a shame. Hopefully this can be fixed. Thanks.

    @Flut
    When i see my players overview, the shirt right from the players face is not the shirt i downloaded. It is only a shirt with the colours of the team. For example, your player profile example Pascal Stenzel has right from the players face the offical team kit of Stuttgart but mine is only a red white shirt though i downloaded all the new kits. When i open the team overview Stuttgart it is the right shirt. You maybe know what the problem is?
  • Keejteej's avatar
    Hey again Flut, hope all going well! Little point - is there a way to make the 'partnerships' always show up on tactics screen? When I hover over them only some show.

    No details SS

    Detailed SS

    Thanks fella, KT

    If i want to use othe Player Profiles, which kit icon i have to change for it? Is it kit icon 14, than kit icon 24 and so on?
  • vonreichsm's avatar
    @Flut: Ah. No. I´m using Flut card background color. But if i change to Profile Flut Stadium option nothing changed.
  • cristobalite's avatar
    @FLUT, can you please tell me where to locate the kit icon34.xml file? I also have an issue with big kit numbers blocking player name in the new player overview panel, thanks
  • Flut's avatar
    eintracht83: Hi. I really don't know what happens. Have you tried?

    Claen the cache and exit the game
    remove all the skins of your skins folder
    download again the Flutskin
    place it in the skins folder (only this skin, only this skin version)
    reload the game

    vonreichsm: no problem. But you are using the Profile Flut Stadium option?
  • eintracht83's avatar
    Hello everybody,

    I've got a problem with the game after downloading the newest skin. Sometimes after a game my screen freezes and crashs. At the screen of the media reaction it freezes for a time and then it crashs. Does anybody of you have a solution for this problem?



    Thank you.

  • vonreichsm's avatar
    @Flut: Oh Flut, i´m so sorry for that questions. I know, you have other things to do:

    Ich changed the 97 to 123 and the 100 to 125:

    <widget class="picture" id="bNUM" image_alignment="centre" scale_picture="true">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="2"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="97"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="100" />
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi vonreichsm: what is the option you use in the drop dpwn arrow?

    @LeDurant: yes. You can edit the colour of background attributes boxes in the settings.xml in the following code

    <colour name="unknown attribute background" red="146" green="82" blue="143"/>
    <colour name="low attribute background" red="247" green="121" blue="121"/>
    <colour name="normal attribute background" red="245" green="245" blue="85"/>
    <colour name="good attribute background" value="green 200" />
    <colour name="excellent attribute background" value="green" />

    Don't forget to reload the game.
  • vonreichsm's avatar
    @Flut:
    Thank you very much for your help, but nothings happend if i change the lines in kit icon34.
  • LeDurant's avatar
    Is there any way to change the attribute colors inside the background boxes in player profile?
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi vonreichsm: thanks. Regarding your question, You can edit it in kit icon34.xml in the following code



    <widget class="picture" id="bNUM" image_alignment="centre" scale_picture="true">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="2"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="97"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="100" />

    </widget>


    I also noticed in your screenshot, that for your resolution the nation button and the condition icon are out of the place. For the option you use (Profile Flut Stadium) you can adjust it in player overview panel.xml in the following code

    <!-- bandeira pequena -->
    <widget class="nation_button" id="natH" icon_alignment="left,top" dspf="4">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="268.5" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="centre" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="28"/>

    <record id="object_property">
    <integer id="get_property" value="Pnat" />
    <integer id="set_property" value="valu" />
    </record>
    </widget>


    <!-- condition -->
    <widget class="editable_client_object_property_panel" id="conv" alignment="left" icon_alignment="left">
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="top" inset="128" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="centre" inset="0"/>
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />
    <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="left" inset="7"/>
    <record id="widget_info" class="player_condition_icon_widget" appearance="" label_disabled="true" scale_picture="false" icon_alignment="right"/>
    <record id="widget_properties" alignment="right,centre_y"/>
    <record id="object_property" get_property="PcOI"/>
    </widget>

    Thanks Flut. Nice like ever. I like the new player panel like in fm18. Nice to see it back:
    https://abload.de/img/screenshot2021-04-120svku9.jpg
    Do you know how i can change the size of the kit number? Until your Version 11 it works fine for me if i changed the panel kit icon 14 the lines 17 and 19. Now it doesn´t work for me.
    Have a nice day and don´t get ill.
  • GMM's avatar
    Excellent ! Thanks
  • Flut's avatar
    Hi filip: thanks. Regarding your suggestion, this year I couldn't make it work, that's why I didn't include that comparison panel and only the default of this year.
