sc3m3k Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Can anyone tell me how do I change the color of the text for the attributes ? I don't mean the numbers, but the actual words before them such as marking, passing, determination, pace and the numerous others. I would like the words to be white because that would make them appear really clear. I have numerous backgrounds for the well known players but I have to look closely to see the attribute words ... I will post a link to a tinypic.com if people are still not sure what I'm talking about .... http://i36.tinypic.com/2m48xfq.png as you can see by the pic it is hard to make out what the particular attributes are unless u look closely Sorry for posting this here but there aint much interest in other areas where I mentioned this earlier...

x42bn6 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Use at your own risk: Go to My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\skins\skin name\settings\settings.xml and open it up in a text editor. Then you should notice something like this around line 90: <colour name="attribute label" red="[i]r[/i]" green="[i]g[/i]" blue="[i]b[/i]" /> Where r, g and b are integers from 0-255. I believe you can change these values and it will change the attribute labels of the player screen. However, I don't tinker with skins so I don't know - it could change something else. I guess you want a white, so try 255, 255 and 255 or thereabouts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc3m3k Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 The problem is the font for the words pace, heading, passing and numerous others seems to be the one from the default skin , is there a way to get rid of the default one along with everything associated with it ? Also, I believe for a bit I had the attribute stuff in the white color but I think they changed back when I went to a different screen or something ... seems like some sort of conflict.

The skin is steklo , and its a pretty popular one I believe , anyway when I took a look at the settings file and did a search to find the words attribute label that u mentioned, the only result that came up was: <colour name="attribute label" red="240" green="240" blue="240"/> If I change those values to 255 that could possibly change the wording of such things as pace, shooting, passing etc ? I dont mind the numbers, as u can see from the initial screenshot in the 1st post that the numbers appear allright its just words beside them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc3m3k Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 No matter which skin I use, the font beside the numbers (attributes) remains this black / greyish color ;( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps ask in the skinning forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc3m3k Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 Anyone know how I can maybe change the words pace, shooting, dribbling etc in the default skin ? Whatever skin I choose I think it just takes the fonts from the default one because they have a black / dark gray color , and which ever skin I load the attribute coloring is the same so something is not right . Yesterday I had different font colors when I placed a different settings file within the skin I was using , but today when I run the game it goes back to the black ones... The skinning forum is useless, I posted this topic there before I came here and no replies, only some people looked at it but I guess they had no solution so no reply has been written Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
