dave byrd Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yep: <!-- profile attribute colours --> <colour name="low attribute" blue="150" red="150" green="150"/> <colour name="normal attribute" green="255" red="255" blue="255" /> <colour name="good attribute" blue="0" green="255" red="255" /> <colour name="excellent attribute" red="255" yellow="255" blue="0" /> <!-- (additional) stats colours --> <colour name="low stat" red="180" green="180" blue="0"/> <colour name="medium stat" red="220" green="220" blue="0" /> <colour name="good stat" red="255" green="204" blue="0" /> <colour name="excellent stat" red="255" green="160" blue="0" /> The game seems to be using the small logo for the prem badge though...going to look into that now.

PGB_SPURS_FM09 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Yeah im on the dark skin aswell its amazing! I was thinking about changing the colours as its the only thing thats wrong with it... I knew how to change the colours on 09... is it the same for 10?

sheriffpatgarrett Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 What do the colors of the attributes mean actually? Red = Player has reached his maximum or is near his maximum?

muncherdave Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 There is a dark skin in the demo... This IS the dark skin!! Oh ok, I'm playing with the vanilla demo and it doesn't have it. I was confused by you saying that you had to set colours and stuff, are you saying that you can set your own colour scheme to the skin in-game using some sort of colour chart or something, rather than the old method of messing about with code?

dave byrd Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 I repeat myself, this thread must be stickied or alternatively SI must insert an option to change the color into FM10. I agree. This year they've given us the ability to edit the squad screen in-game, which is something that we've previously had to do ourselves so why not give us the option in-game to change the attribute colours rather than have to manually edit .xml files? It's easy when you know how but the vast majority don't know how. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
