TinFM Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Hey, I really don't like the CGI style backgrounds in FM this year, the changing room (in game and on the main menu), chairs in the press conference etc. I've searched around and can't seem to find anything, does anyone know how these can be replaced?

michaeltmurrayuk Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Looks like they are set in the client object browser xml file found in the panels\client_object folder which you'll need to extract from the skins fmf file. (then found inside the fm skin) and then place in the same folder for the skin you are using (if you are using the default skins you'll need to download and switch to the base skin). In that file locate and delete this section of code: <!-- press conference - covers entire screen --> <widget class="environment" id="prCN" room_type="press_conference_room" > <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" /> <attachment class="test_multiple_globals_attachment" default_value="false"> <list id="get_properties"> <record get_property="section" test_mode="0" value="PprC" skip_if_null="false"/> </list> <integer id="set_property" value="Shwn"/> </attachment> </widget> <!-- dressing room scene - covers entire screen --> <widget class="environment" id="chCN"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" /> <attachment class="test_multiple_globals_attachment" default_value="false"> <list id="get_properties"> <record get_property="section" test_mode="0" value="htmt" skip_if_null="false"/> <record get_property="section" test_mode="0" comparison_mode="1" value="atmt" skip_if_null="true" /> </list> <integer id="set_property" value="Shwn"/> </attachment> </widget> Though for the Dressing Room you might want to put this code into the file so you have a background: <!-- dressing room scene - covers entire screen --> <widget class="picture" file="backgrounds/dressing room" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="false"> <attachment class="test_multiple_globals_attachment" default_value="false"> <list id="get_properties"> <record get_property="sect" test_mode="0" value="htmt" skip_if_null="false"/> <record get_property="sect" test_mode="0" comparison_mode="1" value="atmt" skip_if_null="true" /> </list> <integer id="set_property" value="Shwn"/> </attachment> </widget> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinFM Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 Cheers, big help. I've amended, it's removed the scene put not showing the picture... will start digging! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinFM Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 @michaeltmurrayuk Cheers for the help, one I'm struggling with is removing the manager/changing the BG for the main menu (intro panel?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaeltmurrayuk Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Have a look at this thread, though the manager stuff on the start page tends to get generated by the game code rather than the xml files so it might not be possible to remove without breaking other stuff, and not sure if the cheat of laying a background over it will still work: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placed it after: <container class="add_manager_panel" id="adMP" file="none" manager_appearance_side="left"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" /> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" /> <container id="CHWc"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" apply_to_children="true" inset="0" /> </container> For anyone stumbling across this, I can't view the manager when I click "Edit Manager Appearance" anymore but that really doesn't bother me.

Could you please write step by step how will we do it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest reading the links @michaeltmurrayuk posted around the files first. Then once you understand that, I opened the "intro panel.xml" file, and found the following section: <container class="add_manager_panel" id="adMP" file="none" manager_appearance_side="left"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" apply_to_children="true" /> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="0" /> <container id="CHWc"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" apply_to_children="true" inset="0" /> </container> Underneath that code, I posted the following: <!-- Overlay over the top of manager BG --> <widget class="picture" id="bkg1" file="main menu/background" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="false"> <layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all" inset="-200" /> </widget> Then, in the "graphics" folder in the skin you're working on, create a folder called "main menu". In there place a file called "background". If you want to you can change the folder/file name, just change the above code (file="main menu/background") to reflect that.
