dave byrd Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 Simple instructions to install the ad boards: Extract to your desktop with winzip/winrar. The ads folder that contains the 2 config files install to documents/sports interactive/football manager 2011. This is my suggestion for making the installation OF the graphics folder more simple: click on the file until the actual folder with the files is on your screen which is also called ads. Right click and cut the folder then place it in documents/sports interactive/football manager 2011/graphics/pictures. If the graphics or pictures folder doesnt exist just create it! job done.

masmac Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 It's not working for me. I'm on a mac and when I download the "patch" it shows up as a folder, not a zip file. So I place the ads folder (with the two xml docs) in the documents/sports interactive/football manager 2011 ....and the actual ads in documents/sports interactive/football manager 2011/graphics/pictures where all the other graphics are. Nothing works and it has actually removed the default adboards. I wish some could post some screenshots from a working setuo on a mac... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfa120374 Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Just a question to put my mind at ease - do the boards only work for the competative games and not friendies? Reason I ask is that I was playing another Scottish team in a friendly and the ad boards were coming up with the default boards, so if it IS just the competition games they are supposed to come up in then I know it will be fine.

phnompenhandy Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I'm managing an English non-league club. Will I see the default boards, or will I get the SI ones until I reach a higher level? EDIT: Oops, just downloaded and read the *.doc file, which tells me I'll get the defaults. That'll do just fine. Rock on! SECOND EDIT: And the default one is working just fine. I never ever did get it working in FM10, so I'm well happy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee_Simpson Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Is this right? 2 config files go to My Documents\Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2011, no subfolder like graphics?

However, after restarting the game with the skin cache disabled they were displaying correctly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSGTroyer Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 ^^^ Restarting the game (regardless of the skin cache settings) is what I find works. This is true for any graphic upgrades that are installed outside the .../fm11/skins folder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mons Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Colorado, I don't think you need to be asked to overwrite any files. Are you on a Mac? This patch doesn't work with Macs afaik. Have you unticked skin cache? Do you still have the default ads? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnompenhandy Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 To be fair, I never got them working in FM10 but I have got them working in FM11. the problem is that the installation instructions are confusing and I was putting the folders in the wrong place. I have to thank Dave Byrd in post #24 for the correct instructions - follow him and your adboards will appear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttiger_ruttiger Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Is there a way to put adboards on a certain part of the pitch but then have the other areas clear of adboards? Eg have one board each side of the dugout and then have none everywhere else (like what seems to happen when they haven't been installed properly). It seems the game always replaces empty adboards sections no matter what i try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
