kingjericho Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Is there a way to make the commentary text bigger? I play in 85% zoom and struggle to read commentary below the 2D match screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you want from the first screenshot? For the second one if you mean the training/fixture detail text then if they haven't changed those bits are controlled by the various xml files starting with the name training schedule session calendar... found in the panels\widgets folder which you'll need to extract from the panels fmf file. @united99 Follow the instructions on the first page about Enabling Background Changes as the best option is to adjust the transparency of the background overlay to make the text readable, otherwise you'll need to wait for a light skin as it's a massive amount of work to recolour the text. @kingjericho Commentary size should normally be controlled by the match commentary xml file found in the panels\match folder extracted from the panels fmf file. (Though it's on my list of match related stuff to look at if not). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braumiller Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Interested in dipping my toes into some skinning this year, and as a starter project I want to expand the training news item functionality a little. Essentially I want to include the 'Praise' or 'Criticize' button for the other players mentioned (always been a pet peeve of mine that only one player has the button! - lol).

sebastian_starttrbts Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Does someone know the kind of transparent colour of the boxes in the staff comparison screen? It seems they are transparent except the darker boxes with their role and contract details. I would like to recolour the boxes in the player comparison screen the same way instead of the usual green and blue and already found the command to recolour them: <!-- Player comparison colours --> <colour name="comp person 1" value="bg green" /> <colour name="comp person 2" value="bg blue" /> but I am not able to find the right colour-command to recolour them the way I would like to.

Maybe someone has an idea? The Staff and Player Screens use a different graphic, you just need to change the container class and that will change the graphic for you. I take it you want the player screen to be transparent so it's like the staff screen. So in the player comparison xml file found in the panels\player folder extracted from the panels fmf file. Find the line that looks like this: <!-- Person 1 --> <container id="p1tp" class="main_contrast_box" red_replacement="comp person 1"> And change it to read: <!-- Person 1 --> <container id="p1tp" class="main_box" red_replacement="comp person 1"> And that will change the graphic so it recolours the same as the player screen, you then just need to make the same change for the Person 2 code found further down the file. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome, thank you And I was so proud I found the command to recolour it the way I like... but it was still the wrong approach Nevertheless now I know how to colour it with any rgb-code as well for the future.

valerio94 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 hi, i like to have the stadium picture visible while watching the game. I named the image file "match_background" and placed it in the texture folder. in this way I have the image of the stadium that interests me visible in the 2D game. Is there a way to have the image of the stadium of the team playing at home automatically, without having to intervene manually every time? sorry for the grammatical errors but I don't know English well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lugui Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) First, I'd like to thank everyone here for sharing their knowledge about the matter. It has helped a lot of people to enjoy their game a bit better. As for me, I had 0 skills when it came to skinning and thanks to this place I am able to mess around with a few things that I like in my game, so thanks! I'm using the Base21Dark version and would like to have my titlebar (the main bar at the top) with the same colour as my side bar, that I managed to config to change colours for every team I go/click in the game, including the one I manage. In other words, how can I stop it from being dark everywhere to be in the colour of the club or competition Im seeing? Does the same logic count for the player profile screen and competitions? Here are a few examples of what Id like to modify. Thanks in advance if anyone knows! Edited December 3, 2020 by lugui Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

<<Macaco-RJ88>> Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 On 24/11/2020 at 14:44, michaeltmurrayuk said: How To Edit The Fonts The font settings are now controlled by the various files located inside the fonts folder. For the base skins I have included all the default font files to save you having to go look for them. To edit the fonts its just a case of changing the various variables declared in the fontxml files, whilst to change the actual font you copy the font you want to use to the font folder and then update the font names in the fontxml files to match your new font. Like with FM20 FM21 also uses the fontxml file format, however the format of the files is the same and you can open them with the same program you use to read normal xml files, you'll just need to right click on the first file and select the open with option in Windows first to associate the files with the program you wish to use. NOTE: The game will not read them if you change them back to plain xml files. Hi Michael! I have been editing the TEXT xml file, to read "calibri" and "calibrib" instead of the GT America font. I pasted the font files into the font folder. Whenever I reload the game, I got a crash. Basically, any changes in the fonts are giving me a crash. Would have any idea about what could be causing this? Thank you very much! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
