KeepCalmAndPlayFM Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Dear All, I downloaded several skins for my FM17 save, unzipped them and added to my 'Skins' folder as per the descriptions. I restarted my game, went to preferences - interfaces but the skins are not there. I am using a Macbook Pro. I remember having the same problem with FM15 where some editing of some config xml file helped to solve the problem. Any ideas how to tackle this issue at FM17? My preference would be to use the Vitrex skin. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeepCalmAndPlayFM Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 Slight improvement, it now seems to recognise the skin but says that there is an xml passing error. Any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUBI Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Ok, re-download the skin and replace it. If it gives you the same error, empty the cache in preferences and re-start the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUBI Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 It seems that he manually changed "true" which did cause the error with textedit on the mac changing the " to ”. If he re-download and install the skin again it should work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
