I have tried in the graphics folder in backgrounds but nothing just a black grey screen helpplease ? thanks.... Hi, Stadium backgrounds still don't appear during the game to my knowledge. This would be down to the skin maker, the background pack loads the images into the games memory. Where they are displayed is then down to the skin. I think I made a mess of the alternative config files which is why they don't work. I was working on the spreadsheet and made some changes... I need to fix them. I'll try to get it fixed tomorrow.

Cheers....... I will certainly give it a crack It might not be straightforward as I am often reliant on googling which can be trickier where the language structure is removed from English. Some nations can surprise though, for instance I found the South American leagues much easier than I expected even in the smaller nations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a fan, I'm also the Social Media officer for the club, and I'm interested in seeing what it is. Ta No picture at this moment. I am currently working on getting images down to level 10 of the pyramid. Still quite a lot to do at the moment. I've just had a quick scan on google and couldn't see a decent picture I liked. If you have one in a good resolution from outside the ground I would be delighted to add it to the pack. I really like doing the non-league grounds. I've taken quite a few pictures myself of non-league grounds. When I travel somewhere I like to swing by a few grounds on the way and get pictures, particularily of the less well known teams. I'm based in Yorkshire so might be a while till a trip to Sussex takes me past Hailsham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly right. The graphics then load into memory when the game boots up. Are you seeing the club background pictures? What version of the game are you playing, FMC or full? How the images load is down to the skin itself. I'm not sure how to get the mini pics on the club profile screen. The default skin may not support this.

The sort of pictures I like usually have the ground itself as part of the background while the foreground has other things going on.

I try to keep an eye on stadium moves but sometimes they get missed. I'm not sure about matchdays, I think it is down to the skin whether they are displayed. The background pack just loads images into memory, it is down to the skin creator to decide which screens show where. My skin knowledge is pretty much zero.

I know what you mean. I really liked matchday backgrounds. I usually play in the lower leagues and it's nice as you progress to see the stadiums you are playing at going from just fields to massive super stadiums. I think that they have been outmoded by changes to the match engine though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The RingMaster Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Hi there, Just a quick query. On the opening post there is a Config file you can download so the interior of the stadium appears on the club and squad screen. Where do you put this? I have put it in the '/pictures' folder, replacing the existing Config.xml file, but that makes no background pictures appear at all. Just wondering if I am missing something obvious?

This one should work https://www.dropbox.com/s/m4e3d1q4bi25uqs/config%201.3%20-%20reversing%20team%20and%20stadium%20pics.zip?dl=0 but you will be missing the stadiums added in patch 1.4 (a few eastern european leagues).

Andrew Haines Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just a quick update. I've done all sides in England down to level 8 now. I'm about halfway going through every English picture and replacing any I'm not happy with. I tend to replace about one picture in three so it is a fairly major undertaking.
