Cheers for all of the responses. config_1234696906.xml Download this, it is my one. Edit it, and in the line: <record from="profile" to="graphics/pictures/person/2023013668/portrait"/> change 'profile' to the name of your picture and '202301366' to your manager ID (you can turn these on in preferences) Then just stick it and the picture in a folder in your graphics folder. Reload the skin as usual and your picture should appear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jod123 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I don't know of any skins that are .fmf files. Most files are .rar files. I'll walk you through it if you like.

jod123 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Yeah, can you please Jod. Hopefully your instructions will be easier to understand than the ones in the Skinning Hideout. Cheers in advance 1. Download WinRar. You will get it here. Click the link that says English and choose to save that file. 2. Once that is downloaded then you need to install it. So just double click it. 3. Then just go through the screens one by one clicking next each time to install it. 4. When it is installed you need to right click on the skin that you downloaded and then on the menu that appears click "Extract to..". 5. Then in the window that appears go to the following location: My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009\skins. 6. Once that is done just go into preferences in the game and go to the display and sound section and change the skin in there. If you want to download other skins you obviously will not have to download and install WinRar again, just do from step 4 above. Hope that helps. If there is anything you are not clear on, just post back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamilton162 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 YES, THE SKINS WORK!!! Cheers Jod, really appreciate it. I've been trying to do it since i got the game at christmas and its working now, all thanks to you What do you do to get the club logo's up in a game that i have already started? If you don't know, don't worry i'll get an answer from someone else. But cheers for the skins Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 You don't need to start a new game to get the logos to work, they should work fine in your current save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 No problem. Similar to the skins but they go in a different place. You need to create a folder called graphics in the following location. My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009. Then follow wwhat I said above for skins by extracting the logos you have to the graphics folder that you created this time. Then go into the game and in display and sound preferences, untick use skin cache and tick always reload skin on confirm. Let me know how you get on.

hamilton162 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Didn't work Jod. Can you have a different skin to the default one and the logo's as well? When i go back onto the preferences screen, the Skin Cache box is still ticked and the Always reload skin on confirm is unticked. What do i do?
