  1. Long time player of the CM/FM series.

    My enjoyment of this year's edition has been the lowest in a long time.

    I'm sick of the issues in this year's game, which SI just don't seem to want to fix with the new FM25 coming out. Just some of my gripes listed below;

    1. The whole squad demanding new contracts after you win a promotion.

    Even players who aren't good enough to make the step up and have played little in the promotion winning season come moaning about wanting new deals and then upset the whole morale of the squad if they don't get their way. The overreactions with the player - manager communication is so annoying.

    2. The amount of disallowed goals, especially when VAR is in play in the PL. Had some frustrating disallowed goals in L1/Championship, but once you get to the PL, it's on another level.

    Screenshot attached to give an example and this isn't a one-off.

    3. The lack of job offers.

    I've took Derby from League 1 to the Premier League in 2 years. Then finished 8th in first season and 3rd in second PL season, getting into the CL. 

    Had ZERO job offers or interviews. Totally unrealistic. You can't have a career save on this game. IRL, that sort of success would have you linked with bigger clubs in the PL and abroad. This part of the game seems to have got a lot worse in recent years.

    There are some other bugs that annoy me that are still in the game, but are game killers though. Like the shirt numbers and names occasionally going blank during matches 

    Just seems that a lot of corners have been cut this year, which is disappointing considering that a lot of the game is really good. It could be so much more enjoyable and immersive. I hope these are being fixed ahead of FM25.

    Hi, i've got my background transparency into a position that i'm kind of happy with, but i need pointers as to how to fix a couple others: The top bar & side bar menu are plain - How do i add default/primary team colours to these to improve the immersion and feel of a save? Also, how do i get rid of the sole purple on the continue button? and the orange text? sticks out like a sore thumb on the screen. Thanks in advance!

    Continue.xml under panels/generic for the purple button. You can change the colour values there.

    For the orange text, go to the settings and amend this code to the colour of your choosing;

    colour name="title"

    purple top right corner is a graphics, as i said to someone else, comment out 1 widget at time until you find the one - just look for the appearance in the widget (might be the line with primary in it )

    same for the line seperator, it's the same as above, and should vanish once you find the background

     

    Finally worked out how to do it. With a lot of the leg work being done by the WTCS skin. 

    Thanks to @snowofman & @TCSSkin

    The purple is within the client object browser section though. Not the background as I've managed to get the colour for that changed.

  5. This is a WIP at the minute.

    I want to change a few things, as highlighted in the red boxes.

    First one, where is the current purple colour (top right corner within client object browser) controlled? 

    The separator between the sidebar and main section is also purple in the default skin. Again, how can I change the colour of this?

    Lastly and I have already mentioned this earlier, so apologies, but if anyone knows how to adjust the size of this panel so I can't see any of the background at the top, it'd be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    My sidebar is black with a bit of transparency, how I can make the sidebar full transparent so it gets the blue or the respective color for the team on the left side?

    I'm after the same solution, but the 'blue' is controlled by the primary colour of the team, competition and then the paper behind that panel. 

    I haven't worked out how to get the sidebar to change in line with the primary colour, but keep the pattern yet.

    If you don't care about the pattern, then changing to primary colour in the sidebar menu table.xml, should do the trick.

    the actual titlebar is in header.xml which you can find in skins.fmf, the tabs underneath are found in client object browser.xml, search for Actb

    Thanks for the response.

    In header.xml, would it be this code I need to amend?

    <!--titlebars-->
        <container>
            <layout class="arrange_vertical_attachment" alignment="top" offset="0" gap="0" />
            <layout class="fit_children_attachment" alignment="vertical" offset="0" gap="0" />
            <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="horizontal" apply_to_children="true" inset="0" />

            <!-- titlebar -->
            <widget class="titlebar_panel" id="NHdr" height="60" />

            <!-- match titlebar -->
            <widget class="match_titlebar_panel" id="MHdr" height="40" />
        </container>

    Check the Client Object Browser for the widget that has the background, i believe if you put transparency in the line and play around with the value, you can darken the background.

    else you'll have to make the graphics itself darker.

    How does the WTCS skin background change in line with the primary colour of the club/competition?

    widgets/match players bar widget.xml

    Thanks for the response.

    Any idea what to amend to get the colour of the text back to white? This file wasn't in my skin folder, so I'm surprised it wasn't working. Unless it's something in the settings file I need to amend?

    UPDATE - been doing some trial and error stuff and the names seem to disappear when I change the 'title' colours under the settings file. No idea why? The colour is going to the cyan colour that FM23 is running at the moment?
