Thankyou!!!! This worked!
For simplicity for anyone else searching the same answer in future:
1. The colour of the text in the tab bar is governed by the colour id values set in the button.xml, button showing.xml and button selected.xmls within the various tabs folders within graphics folder.
2. By default the colour id in these files is set to "text". So it displays whatever colour value is set to the "text" label within settings/fm colours.xml. So you could just quickly change the colour by changing the settings/fm colours.xml files to display a different colour for "text". BUT this will change with it a lot of the text colour in the game as A LOT of text has it's colour id set to "text". Obviously. Plus you can only change these generic type settings to rgb values or shorthand versions recognised by xml eg "white". You can't use "primary" or "secondary".
3. So to set just the text in tab bar to one specific colour, or to always change to reflect a team's colours, you need to change the colour ids and red replacements etc within the various button folders above. Either to whatever rgb values you want (or to a shorthand name and then set the rgb values for this shorthand name in settings.xml). Or to "primary" or "secondary" if you want the tab bar text colours to reflect a team's colours.
Thankyou for those who helped me figure this out - it only took me 2.5 days and drove me nearly insane!!
I'm going to be making a LOT of mistakes and asking newbie questions as I create my own skin. But to try help others in future I will try remember to come back to any psts where I asked a question and if i've since figured out the answer, try round off the posts with a plain english explanation for the sanity of future newbies like me! And where the main topic of a post has shifted as the post evolves, rename it to something easy to find for folks in future.
I realise this is a really old thread but could anyone shed any more light on this? I’m trying to find the xml files mentioned here but I’m not sure where to look. My graphics folder is just full of kits and facepacks but can’t find anything about the buttons mentioned above.
ive added new kits to a team which don’t match the away text bar colours so I’m hoping to change them within my FM21 save.

He’s possibly the best regen I’ve ever had in my years of FM (statistically) but I feel I’m not getting the best out of him. My team is most successful using cerber v4 and I play him as the SS.
should I sell my 31yr old Lautaro Martinez to allow me to play this guy as the AF? Tough decisions...

does anyone know what the wing-backs are doing wrong for getting such bad ratings (Cerber)? Didn't see anything unusual in the extended highlights...Is it maybe the long throw ins?
I know I shouldn't care...but the game constantly tells me how bad they are doing and I don't know why
Hi mate, TFF has answered this one before earlier in the pages. If I remember right it’s just something to do with how they compare the ratings amongst other positions. It’s not that they are playing particularly badly, it’s just how the game is rating them amongst other performers. (I think, sorry this was discussed quite a while ago and my memory isn’t great).
basically I remember the answer being “don’t worry about it too much”. Personally, I just keep an eye on their passing stats and if they are missing loads of passes and crosses, I’ll sub them out but this isn’t very often.
hope that helps a little

sorry my bad, that was in fm19.
go to development center, select team and on top there is option to select default tactic.
Doesn’t let me do that in Spain. Says the u19 manager controls their tactics. Tried firing him. Someone else just steps in and does the same. Seems unless I take FULL control of them, I can’t set their tactics

all i do is just set my tactic, then in staff rensponsibilities i set u21/19 etc manager to run the team, and there is option to tick "use 1st team tactic"
This doesn’t seem to be an option in Spain though? Or I must be missing it (I’m using FLUTSkin if that makes any difference)

Hi @Totalfootballfan and anyone else with good knowledge. Managing in Spain with Barça and I notice I can’t have the B Team or U19 team replicate the Cerber v4 tactic I use with the main squad.
Ive hired an u19 manger and HOYD who both prefer 4411 formation (to get close-ish to cerber) but they are both being played 433, which wastes my wingers, AMC prospects and stops my youth fullbacks getting valuable game time learning to be Wing backs needed for cerber. Is there any anything I’m missing or that I could change to help this? I know in England you can have your reserves replicate custom tactics but I can’t find this in Spain.
any ideas anyone? I know when they turn 18 I can loan them out for development, but 16-18 I want them to focus on new position learning and getting game time????

something I’ve found which is like to check with you guys....
I was playing with CERBER v4 for the last 3 seasons, but now I’m quite successful, teams set up very defensively against me. I had a string of poor results and was sat in 6th, so I changed to ANNIHILATOR tactic. This worked wonders and I’ve been on a major winning streak and I’m not placed 1st again in the league.
however, what I’ve noted is that with ANNIHILATOR, my strikers Haaland and Mbappe are very average. They regularly have poor games and have only scored 12 goals each so far (I’m in March now)
Haaland was a beast for me with CERBER V4.
so my question is, when teams go extremely defensive against you, what do you guys do? What tactic do you use?
ps, thanks again @Totalfootballfanfor all the time and effort you put into making this game more fun.

Hi @Totalfootballfan does this tactic come with preloaded instructions for free kicks? I’m finding that with both saves I’ve tried (in which the tactic itself is fantastic), I conceded SO MANY goals from free kicks being crossed in and headed in against me.
ive got Jose Gimenez and Pavard as CB with Ederson in goal. Surely they should be sorting this? Or, should I alter things for free kicks or is this a ME bug etc?
It’s honestly crazy that nearly every free kick on highlights against me, is a goal

Hi @Totalfootballfan I’ve been a big fan of your tactics for a few seasons now.
I just want to double check something?
is this correct?
ML / AML - left footedMR / AMR - right footed
ive read this whole post but I’ve seen conflicting team sheets, some with -eg, Pepe as ML and some with Pepe as MR?
can you clarify this for me one last time please?
also, I notice on your arsenal save you play lacazette over aubameyang. What’s your reasoning for this?
thanks mate!!

Silly % of newgens are bald!
in Match Engine - Art, Animations, Facegen and Manager Man
Posted
Hi, I’m having an issue where a very high quantity of the newgens are all bald in the 3D match engine. Their associated avatars often have hair and when I check the editor, it’s stating they have hair colours attached but when I play games, they are all running around like jonjo shelvey. I have at least 5 of these players in my current squad with this issue.
can anyone help?
