TomDixon77 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 This is a lot later than I originally planned (damn you Fallout!) but here are some in progress shots of Steklo X6 (caution, the @2x screenshots are hyooge) @2x version Thanks to artdekdok for allowing me to use a modified version of his player profile panels (I've never liked mucking about with those, and lots of the other mods I've seen are far too busy and crowded) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomDixon77 Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 No plans to have the header go all the way from left to right and have inner sidebar? No. I'm not recolouring the left side of the header, so there's no need really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDixon77 Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 Good stuff Tom.Not sure on the transparency on the continue button, the green mixed with some team colours doesn't look too good imo. I'd possibly look at making that solid. Also, titlebar text is a little tricky to read in the Basel/NY images. I'm probably going to change the fm and continue buttons anyway, I've not come up with something I really like there yet. The text colours thing is something that's always happened because of the glass effect on the header. I might try a drop shadow or something Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Yes! The best skin has its WIP thread....yay. Tom, would it be possible and would you be willing to place the club logo in the top section of the sidebar, above the home icon and thus shifting all those sidebar icons further down?

I could, but I don't like dumping lots of stuff in the header area (and I'm not a fan of small logos either). I might try it at some point and see if I like it.

Poil Brun Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I don't have much to add, but I just wanted to post some words of encouragement: Steklo has been my go-to skin last year and it looks like it will remain that way this year :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

yonko Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Mmm, I'm not feeling it. It looks weird for some reason, out of place. I actually prefer what was earlier in the previous shots.

TomDixon77 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 Does anyone know how to recolour the buttons like 'Use Offside Trap', etc.? They're using the standard buttons, but all three colours seem to recolour to the same thing, and I can't find anything in the settings that changes it. It's been annoying me all day.

yonko Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Tom, look in fm dark-widgets settings.xml file for the following lines (near the bottom): <!-- team/player instructions dialog key colours --> <colour name="selected instruction" red="74" green="195" blue="86" alpha="130"/> <colour name="unselected instruction" red="56" green="60" blue="66" alpha="130"/> <colour name="conflicting instruction" red="188" green="56" blue="56" alpha="130"/> <colour name="conflicting with role instruction" red="243" green="177" blue="177" alpha="130"/> <colour name="preselected instruction" red="218" green="255" blue="196" alpha="130"/> But beware that these also control the green and the red colors for team and player instructions as well as the text on the sliding box that appears when you click on player icon on the tactics pitch (where there is option to see either description of the role or the attributes required for the role, plus options on the right to edit the role). How is progress work going on the skin, btw? You are not too distracted by Fallout, are you? Any exciting new screenies you can show us? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDixon77 Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Nothing particularly new or exciting, but after a bit of fiddling and a lot of cheating, I have sorted that screen out: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomDixon77 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Not much, I wasn't in the mood for the past few days, and I've only been doing small things that need to be done, but aren't very exciting (check boxes and things). I've got an idea in my head for the match headers, but I can't get it to look right in floatypops yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Do you plan on including any mods with your skin, besides the player overview screen? And speaking of that screen, could you please make the PPMs selectable at multiple locations/panels? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDixon77 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Dunno about mods. I've done my two usual ones on the club home page (the stadium pic and the scaling personnel pictures), I'm going to have a look around and see what's what. I'm not a fan of a lot of the panel mods that are knocking about, as they tend to make screens far too busy and cluttered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bella699 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Remember.... All skinners are volunteers, who makes the experience much better for the users. We have a life too. We don´t get paid for making skins. It would be great if it was so. The Bantams and I, have spend lots of hours, making and tweaking the Andromeda skins. Now we have decided to release the last version for the FM16 campaign, just to have some time to play and enjoy the game. Give Tom Dixon the time he needs to finish his great skin......
