Welcome to my Football Manager Blog, the main purpose of this blog is to provide updates on the status of my Football Manager Skins & Guides Website

If you have any questions or queries then I can generally be found in the Skinning Forum at the Official Sports Interactive Forums, though I'd ask you to open a new thread rather than sending me a message.

To help with navigation I have included indexes of my content for the last few versions of Football Manager in the tabs below.

Football Manager 2021 Match Screens Mod



Welcome to my Match Screens Mod for Football Manager 2021.

As you may have noticed FM21 has re-worked the match screens, so I have rebuild the Match Screens Mod from scratch keeping the functionality of the new FM21 screens whilst adding in some more customization options as well as bringing back some panels from previous versions.

The mod again incorporates modifications to both the Match In Between Highlights panel and the Match Review screens, though I haven't had chance to modify the pre-match line-up panels or the Post Match Press Summary Panel.

Football Manager 2021 Touch Base Skins

As with most recent Football Managers for you to make certain changes in Football Manager 2021 Touch you need to create a new skin. Thankfully over the last few years some more stuff has been moved out of the skins folder so you only really need the Base skin if you are wanting to edit the skin graphics, fonts or colours. If you want to edit the match graphics or the most of the panel xml files you no longer really need the base skins.

So to make things easier for people I've put up some base skins that are identical to the default skins that come with the game, so you can add new files/graphics to these without messing up the original skins, and anything that isn't located in these new skin folders will be taken from the default locations within the game.

For Football Manager 2021 Touch you have three skins to choose from the Default (Purple) Skin, and two Dark Skins one based on the FM21 colouring (Purple accents) and one based on the FM20 colouring (Cyan and Yellow accents).

Full instructions on when and how to use the Base Skins can be found on the download page, please ensure you read the page in detail before downloading the Base Skins as it will save you problems in the future.




If you have any further questions on the Base Skins please ask any questions in the Skinning Hideout on the Official SIGames Forums.

Football Manager 2021 Dark Base Skins Updated

Both the FM21 Base Dark Skin and FM21 Base Dark (FM20) Skins have been updated.

Default FM21 Base Skin hasn't been updated, and a Light Version is still in progress.

Fixes include:

Colour Tweaks

- Fixed issue with bright yellow background colour, changed to Purple from Main Dark Skin (bg tertiary colour).

- Tweaked the media tag colours on the inbox screens, made lighter so more readable.

Player Attribute Panel Tweaks

- Removed unneeded scrollbar.

- Stopped bottom option being cut from Analyzer

- Increased player pic size.

- Added Report option to Small Selector Panel.

General

- I also had to change the folder names due to an issue with the Steam Workshop, though this shouldn't cause any issues apart from them not matching the screenshots
