Octavianus[GER] Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 FM2012 Numbered Tactical Sliders v1.0 [English] made by Octavianus You never know how many klicks you made within your tactics? This little modifcation adds numbers behind the sliders, so you always know how many klicks you've made. --- Installation --- If you open the archive you see several things: 2 folders, 3 xml-files and a Readme. The Readme is just saying the same things below, so if you link my file anywhere else any other person can understand what to do without the need of being registered here in SI forums (well, I recommend everybody to register to the SI Forums nevertheless). a) Using this mod for FM2012 Default Skin Extract (not empty! just leave all the files within the folders) the folders to: *FM-UDF*\skins\ Start FM, go to Preferences, choose the skin "Numbered Tactical Sliders". Changes will be applied immediately. Or choose "Numbered Tactical Sliders (Dark)" for applying to the Dark Default skin. b) Using it within another skin/modification or personalised skin Extract the 3 xml files to: *FM-UDF*\skins\*yourskinname*\panels (if your skin has no panels-folder, create one!) Start FM and go to the Preferences screen before unticking 'use skin cache', ticking 'reload skin on confirm' and then click in the left corner at 'Reload Skin'. After the skin has reloaded please put the ticked boxes to the default setting. --- Where can I find my *FM-UDF*? --- UDF stands for User Data Folder Win Vista/Windows 7: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2012\ Win 2000/XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2012\ Win 98/ME: C:\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2012\ Mac OS X: /Users/<username>/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2012/ Or the Demo-destination (works the same, you will find it...) This folder appears right after starting FM2012 for the first time! You can also change this location of your UDF within the FM2012-options. --- Notes --- Many thanks to radestock's version from FM2009, he had the original idea: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=98658 This version is based on my previous versions for FM2010: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/195918-FM2010-Numbered-Tactic-Sliders and for FM2011: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/232570-FM11-RELEASED-Numbered-Tactic-Sliders-Skin-Mod And massive thanks to radestock for his great BaseSkins and for his foolproof guides! --- Changelog --- v1 - released --- Download --- DOWNLOAD (mediafire) Mirror: DOWNLOAD (gamefront) --- Redistribution notes --- Feel free to add these to your skins but be fair and link to this thread and/or mention my name in your credits. Hope you enjoy it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 Wait? 4? I count only 3: player instructions.xml player instructions new.xml team instructions new.xml And I have to admit that player instructions.xml isn't really necessary. After working out this file for another language I discovered that this file has no longer any purpose. But it isn't harmful to keep the file as well.

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 Lol. Okay. Forget about the slider.xml. I haven't touched it anyway.

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Because these sliders aren't available in all languages automatically. You need to translate all sliders separately. But maybe there could be some coding done. Well I'm glad to see that these sliders still work. Same pattern as last year. Would be awesome to see this for the training section too.

ginola1 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Hi Octavianus, I have tried to install the Numbered Tactical Sliders modification read your readme but don't work.

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 14, 2011 Author Share Posted November 14, 2011 Okay. Step by step. You want to use the default skin (light/bright/white version). Do you have exctracted the folder to your skins directory? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 That won't work. You'll have to exctract one folder to the skins directory.

Micko Fliperic Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 It doesn't work for me. I used numbered sliders since 2009 and never had any problems, but this one is not working. I have fm installed on my E: drive and i have my user data folder on my E: drive. I extracted this file (the whole thing) to: E:\Documents and Settings\Benjamin\My Documents\Sports Interactive 2012\skins (the folder skins didn't exist so i created one) I launch fm, but there are only 2 standard skins there. What's the deal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octavianus[GER] Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Please create a blank txt file, rename it to config.xml and put the following code into it: <record> <!-- resource manager options --> <boolean id="dont_scan" value="true"/> <!-- don't recurse the sub folders, as they are loaded separately in the settings manager --> <boolean id="dont_recurse" value="true"/> </record> Put this config.xml right into the skins folder and try it again. Try also to reload the current skin and take a look for the skins now. @ginola1 Please delete the config.xmls and the readme right in this folder and just leave the two folders in there. Please do also reload your skin and check for my skins in the list afterwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micko Fliperic Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hey Octavianus, thanks for the help, but it wasn't needed. I had fm 2011 installed, so there was some sort of conflict or something. I uninstalled it and now your numbered sliders work I cant play without my numbers. i'm lost without it!!! haha. Anyway, thanks. I'm off to create the best tactic the world ever saw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octavianus[GER] Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 @ginola1 We're talking of two things here. My French isn't that great but on the second screen there are no sliders that have to be numbered because there only 3 possible positions for them (left, center, right). You can check my old versions. I haven't done numbered sliders for this specific area because there are only 3 options possible at each slider. The rest works fine as far as I can see here. Could you please do the last screenshot for the same player in English? So I can check if there are missing sliders. But I guess that's all. @Micko Fliperic Lol. The FM2011 version is right here: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/232570-FM11-RELEASED-Numbered-Tactic-Sliders-Skin-Mod Surely the FM2012 version hasn't worked for you because the two folders were created to work in FM2012 only. There have also been slightly variations to this section from FM11. So better use the FM2011 version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micko Fliperic Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 No, i'm playing fm12, but i had fm11 still installed, so i had to uninstall it and i deleted the si folder for fm11. from then on everything worked with these numbered sliders... i still dont get how si don't include this as an option in the game...

Cjie1979 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Is it possible to do this for the "tactics overview" page as well?
