NickJ73 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Here's version 2.9 of my new FM2011 skin 'Galaxy'. This is a more polished version based on my 2010 Dominion skin. Its quite dark so may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it suits me This is the final update and is now considered finished. I've spent the last few days fixing various minor quirks; Everything should be fine now for the full version of FM11. Changes in v2.9 Fixed a few changes in menubar.xml (courtesy of Mufckingud7) Added dark advisor boxes a few more tweaks Installation: Extract the galaxy folders and copy them to: my documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2011/skins Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?rki3jsmen2pj0vi Screenshots Home Squad Profile Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gw79 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 It's excellent, like Dominion that I use on FM10. One other thing that I would like to see (on any skin..this is not an instruction!), would be to move the search bar from the top right and in its place put the competition logo, rather than just have it in the background.

scholes=legend Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 If this skin had a calendar bar across the top i would use it. Good job with the rest of the skin looks great. EDIT. Also mate the bar across the top only lets you have so many on there for some reason. When adding others the ones at the end will dissapear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond85 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 great skin!!! only problem i found until now is in "board requesta"" and "player interactions", as the white font on grey background make it unreadable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pret Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Very impressive skin but I am having the same problem as Raymond Two questions though: Are you going to do a version with the calendar bar, and is there a way to change the background?

NickJ73 Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 Second update will include a version with the calendar bar Sorry about the white box issue, i'll fix that the background image is found in galaxy/graphics/backgrounds called default.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacticalGenius Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Is there any chance of a version using the default Back/Forward/Continue buttons in their default positions, with default calendar bar? I've tried playing around with it, but just can't get it working with my limited xml coding knowledge... TY in advance, TG Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickJ73 Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 Yes, it'd just be a case of altering the menubar.xml, i'll sort it for you tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rista Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Very nice. FM11 demo is playable at last! My only two minor complaints: I liked the color scheme of the Dominion skin much better. Not sure the green font fits well. But I guess that's why this is Galaxy and not Dominion 2 or something Also, personally I prefer the continue button to be in the same location as it is on the default skin. When I'm not in a comfortable position to press space, it is much easier to just move the cursor to the top right corner than having to aim for a button. The same reason why I like how the tabs in Google Chrome are at the very top of the screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sporttoken Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 As someone already pointed out, is the a way to change the background of the skin, as I use stadium backgrounds, It's a little to hard to see them.. If you explain I can rather do it myself, but on the other hand maybe you'd like to release a lighter version.. But not very much lighter.. readable, reasonable and playable...
