FMC FLUT skin for FM 2014 v.2.0 [Updated 13.04.2014]
Skin style FMC for FM 2014 (1920x1080 and 1600x900).
I'm pleased to present you the version 2.0 of FMC FLUTSkin for FM 14 (white version).
This FlutSkin version includes lots of changes. Some of them are just tweaks and fixes, however other are major changes (for example the "match pre match panel", the "match post match panel" or even the "team talk instructions"). In fact, in the other versions I wasn't totally satisfied with some dark panels. As you know (or can imagine) I'm not a big fan of dark style. I prefer the white style (that's why I made a white skin), in my opinion more clean and readable.
Then, I decided to "restyle" lots of panels with a more white style, also including in some of them the green grass picture that I love, and that I call "the flut style brand" (forgive me the lack of humility).
It was a hard work - I had to edit more than a hundred of xml files - but now I'm satisfied with the skin look.
I know that the dark style fans certainly will not like the skin but I believe the white style fans will appreciate it.
I hope you enjoy it if you decide playing our loved game with the FLUTSkin 2.0!!!!
A special thanks to rune (from german Meistertrainerforum). As in the previous versions rune played a great role.
In this version (as in the previous) I also included the trophies’ graphics from “Champions League skin” of a31632, to whom I want to give recognition.
As always I would appreciate it if you could tell me when and in what circumstances (or panels) the bugs arise.
This skin was made to work properly in 1920x1080, however I also included a version for 1600x900.
Here is the most important tweaks in the update (13.04.2014) for FlutSkin version 2.0:
- Inbox panel (lots of panels now with bigger pictures)
- Match post match panel
- Match pre match panel
- Squad tactics (new default view)
- Squad (new default view)
- Match overview panel (goal scorers and other game events info fixed)
- Manager information profile (“tendencies” included)
- Tactics player instructions panel match (fixed the colour of player name in tactics slot)
