Hi everyone, 
Last year I've shared with you my creation (SSD'19 Skin for fm19). This year I'm back with something new : SSD Gold.

DOWNLOAD FINAL UPDATE V1.5

Changelog V1.1

- training issue fixed
(post/role/task box has a wrong id)

- changed some colours here and there to match club colours or gold

- fixed purple icons in tactics screen

Changelog V1.2

- Sidebar always gold / dark grey
- new nation overview screen (thanks to @Wozzie)
- new fonts (you can change it easily)
- club profile edited

Changelog V1.3

- fixed issue with vertical lign when using instant result.
- tactics overview: you can now move players on the pitch (position changing)

Changelog V1.4

- New star rating icons.
- Calendar : fixtures now have a different colour according to competition.
- Several icons have been edited (mostly turn them into gold).

How to install my skin ?

- Download then extract the archive (using Winrar/Winzip/7zip or else)

- You'll get a file called "SSD Gold V1.0". Move this file to the correct location :

Windows : Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2020/skins
Mac : Library/Application Support/Sport Interactive/Football Manager 2020/skins

- Open the game, Go to preferences then choose my skin, don't forget to set up the correct zoom.

Resolutions

Skin is made for my resolution : 1920x1080 windowed mode with 100% zoom.

It's up to you to test zoom level according to your screen resolution.

City pics tutorial

 

1. Open your city pics pack. Normally it can be found here : Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\City pics

2.thumb.png.c072bfc204521862c3ff6b18cc39a175.png
2. There are different packs, so there are 2 different ways to configure it:
            - First one is that all images are here in a single big folder. In it you will find a file called config.xml which is the one we are looking for.
            - Second one, more complicated for us, is that the creator made his pack with sub-folders by nation then by country. you will need to navigate and open every config.xml files.
3. Opoen one file config.xml with a text editor (I recommand Notepad++)
4. You will see several ligns with the same code.
5. You will have to edit those lines to match the lign below :

                    <record from="XXX" to="graphics/pictures/club/YYY/logo/background/left"/>
                    
6. XXX stands for your city picture (ie: the .jpg or .png file). Most of the time you will see a series of numbers.
7. YYY is your club ID in Football Manager 2020.
To find it, open the game and launch your saved game.
Then, go to preferences, click on advanced
Next, you choose "interface" in the scrolling menu on the right
And you tick the box in front of "Show screen IDs in Titlebar to assist skinning"
Confirm by clicking OK button
8. Once back to the game, click on whatever club you want.
You will see a number appeared next to the club name in the titlebar on top of the screen.
9. Note down this number.
10. Get back to Notepad (or your text editor) to modify your lign of code.

I will take Liverpool as an exemple for the rest of the tutorial

Liverpool ID is 676 (this is our YYY from point 5)
My graphic file is the photo called liverpool.jpg (this is our XXX from point 5)

I have to type the line of code following this:

                    <record from="liverpool" to="graphics/pictures/club/676/logo/background/left"/>

11. This is what the config.xml file should look like once finished.

3.thumb.png.5ddb238988d89c2140886e6d77dff036.png
12. This is the folder with our Liverpool picture.

4.thumb.png.1a658b134e8c6a47f713e00cdb3fa96a.png
13. Back to Football Manager 2020.
14. Then, go to preferences, click on advanced 
Next, you choose "interface" in the scrolling menu on the right
Untick the box in front of "Use caching to decrease page loading times"
And tick the box in front of "Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences"
Hit Confirm button
15. Wait for the loading and head up to your club profile (I will go to Liverpool in my exemple)
Now you have your city pic showing.

It's rare I see things these days that I want to include in my skin but that staff overview is such a good idea and the game processing is the best layout that I've personally seen. 

Comes in very handy seeing them all on one screen.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

When I first added this staff panel, I found it very useful. Now I couldn't open FM without this feature.

@makul \panels\match\match preview panel.xml line 35 for home kit play with the numbers width, height. You will have to change left and top insets a few lines below. Same thing line 62 for away kit.

It is set on 220x220 as most of kit packs are created with these dimensions.

@Rub Me I'm using the one made by dazs8 on fmscout. Config file in it links the graphics to left background logo of the club. I know that a few years ago There were several city packs. But now there's only one so it should work. My pack is in Docs/SI/FM20/graphics/city pics if it helps.

@Rub Me This is an exemple of the config file in city pics

<record from="XXX" to="graphics/pictures/club/XXX/logo/background/left"/>

I've use this code to build club overview panel.xml

 

Check your personal cofig file in your city pics pack. If it does not match with that, it won't work properly.

record to="graphics/pictures/club/xxx/background" from="xxx is in all the individual config files by default. There is no "logo' or "left' in the files.

Just a heads up mate, I tried the download link & I got a virus warning come up.

What anti virus programmes are you using? Might be false positive. I just downloaded it and its fine.

It is just a graphic. So you can change it (not mentionned but there are 10 options: l'équipe for France, gazzetta for Italy, Marca for spain, sky, eurosport, ...)

It is located here: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\skins\SSD Gold V1.2\graphics\boxes\custom\inbox

Just rename the one you want to use "inbox.png" as it is the one used in-game. If you want to remove it completely, just rename "inbox.png" with another name so that the game won't read the file. There will be a blank image. (transparent actually)

Hi Sh@rk,

 

please can you offer assistance... I have obtained the city pics linked in an earlier reply, I have followed your spoiler yet for some reason I have no city pic on my club overview.



In which folder did you place them ?. Did you go to Documents ?. There do you find Sports Interactive. When you're in the folder Sports Interactive, You go to Football Manager 2020. See the picture below. And if you follow these steps it should work.

My city pics are stored here : Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\graphics\City pics

But the one important thing is the "config.xml" file. It should be configured in the right way in order to work correctly.

I've coded my skin to show the left background logo of the club. (I've not checked if it is true but for exemple in flut skin this same code will show the kit next to the player face)

You need to have those lines in config.xml wich is next to your city pics :

<record from="name_of_the_jpg" to="graphics/pictures/club/club_id/logo/background/left"/>

where you will replace name_of_the_jpg with the name of the picture you have in the folder I mention. And club_id is a number you will found in-game in the titlebar next to your club name. (once you've done the manipulation to show ids)

Save config.xml file, open FM, and reload graphics (tick and untick in the preferences), wait for loading and you should see the difference.
