Guest dazseight Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Great work man.One question though, how do i change the font style pal? All you have to do is look at the fonts already in the folder.......just re name the font you want to use to the same as one of them. I thought I put instructions in......seem to have vanished......sure I did it.:confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
americas4ever Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Hi dazseight So far, great skin. I've been able to change the font but player's name font (when you are in his profile) Also, in the main menu where load game, start game, ... etc., is. How can I change that? Also, the calendar bar, you give instructions to change it. I'm not very experimented on this so if you can help me to have that calendar bar at the bottom of the screen I appreciate it.

Lagarr Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 The stadium issue I have been having is also there on the Base skin and the FM ones, so I'm wondering if alot of the stadium id's have been changed as only around half seem to work, despite download several different stadium packs. Everything else is working fine mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoDi Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 The skin looks great, but there are big problems in it. First, search bar is missing (only shows in club page). Second, some menus are only showing 10-50% of it, like the button to press to make your team talk from assistant managers advice, and the tactics and others from the same page too. But then the biggest thing bugging: If u change tactics or make subs via the tactics page (not quicklinks) when you are in a match, when u come back to the match, EVERY SINGLE of match day info is selected! So u suddenly have those 12-15 of those infront of your pitch (match stats, formation, assistant advice, score etc). That is just super annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaytonBhoy Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I did change the font, but that was in a previous version of the skin, and I've loaded your new one as is. I can't post a screenshot for some reason, so I'll tell you briefly what the problem seems to be. It now seems to be that the top half of the title-bar is gone. Because if you are looking at La Liga, for example, in the top middle of the screen is the name of the present holder ... the actual league name, which should be above that, is gone. It's the same with the players (the top of the screen is his position), and nations etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaytonBhoy Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Hey fella Yeah you were right, it was the font, and some other stuff. Apparently when I loaded the new version of the skin it didn't over-write that stuff as it was supposed to. Congratulations on a fantastic piece of work. If this really is your first effort at skinning you did a damned fine job. I also downloaded all those backgrounds of yours, for the clubs and the countries. The best packs - by far - I've ever seen. Outstanding work in every way. I also downloaded the logos megapack, which is another stunning, stunning piece of work. A couple of minor issues ... the Scottish Cup background image is from a few years ago. You have it as the Homecoming Scottish Cup, but the Scottish Cup is now sponsored by William Hill. These are also wrong in the logopack, but that is because I have been unable to download the updates, from the links. Are these working okay on your end, and if not, can you provide new ones? Overall, your website is class. The game has never looked better than with your backgrounds etc. Seriously, the best piece of work I've seen for this game yet.

Guest dazseight Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Dazseight, about your backgrounds, is-it the same background for every menu ? or is there one background by one menu changing every time we change to an other menu ? If your on a team page the background can only be the same....you can get it to show a different background on VIEW CLUB Button.....and of course STADIUM on match-day. To get a different background to show on VIEW CLUB PAGE.....you have to create a folder in the skins graphics folder called TEAM VIEW.....I have stadiums showing on there at the moment. Now the stadium makers have not as far as I know used this yet......I have a link to the folder you need if you want it....but I do not take credit for the Stadiums just the folder and config and re packaged the stadiums.The stadiums were made by MINNEAPOLIS JON.

LaytonBhoy Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Great stuff on the new update. I notice in it that you have a background for the NextGen series. I'm very pleased at that, obviously, as my own club, Celtic, is competing. I put it into the competition editor and I found that there is, indeed, a match for it ... under the Under 19's Champions Cup. I think I'll have a go at activating it.

The desk manager background should be named the same as your manager id...Example;1394704278 ans should be in a folder call MANAGER VIEW with the config file. which goes in DOCUMENTS/SPORTS INTERACTIVE/FOOTBALL MANAGER 2012/SKINS/DAZS8 OR FM12 DARK-SKIN DEPENDING ON WHICH VERSION YOU HAVE/GRAPHICS/BACKGROUNDS. If you want it as your default screen picture which will show every time there is no picture associated with the screen you are on do this...re name it default and place here. DOCUMENTS/SPORTS INTERACTIVE/FOOTBALL MANAGER 2012/SKINS/DAZS8 OR FM12 DARK-SKIN DEPENDING ON WHICH VERSION YOU HAVE/GRAPHICS/BACKGROUNDS/. If the picture is showing up with other skins that tells me you have your background in the wrong folder My backgrounds go here.... DOCUMENTS/SPORTS INTERACTIVE/FOOTBALL MANAGER 2012/SKINS/DAZS8 OR FM12 DARK-SKIN DEPENDING ON WHICH VERSION YOU HAVE/GRAPHICS/BACKGROUNDS but stadium backgrounds go here..... DOCUMENTS/SPORTS INTERACTIVE/FOOTBALL MANAGER 2012/GRAPHICS. Hope this helps mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaytonBhoy Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I just downloaded your "Back of the Net" club backgrounds, for the Team View, as you suggested, and they work a treat. Marvellous, marvellous stuff. My question is this. The base pack is pretty impressive. I am downloading the updates, but they all seem to be the same size. Are they the same file? Is the base pack the fully updated version or is there more? One other question .... when I click on the national team page, I get a default background. How do I do what I've just done with the clubs for the countries? I already have your national team background pack appearing when I view the squads ....
