[FM22][SKIN][WIP] FME - Zealand v4.00 HOTFIX (08/01/2022)

[giglet13]

Fantastic work!

I'm using several panels from this in my own custom skin as a result. Any plans to add background selector option? I can't see to get the client object config from the skin right when updating it to try and  make it work on mine

V2.02 is now available. Many bugs fixed. Some new cool additions too, never before seen in FM 🤘

Switching to the club screen is still delayed.

@FMEnhanced  Thanks again for a really good skin ( again)

One noob question for you or any other experts, please

The screenshots in the OP show the touchline tablet with 6/8 or more panels visible.  After dragging the right pane to the left I can get 3 only and can only get 1 view per panel, so am only seeing 4 maximum.  I am using a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 and zoom at 95%.  Can you please advise the settings that will let me access more views on the tablet sceeen?

[bahmet]

Can you add positions, abilities and potential to the player's pop-up window?

[bahmet]

How to make the background a little darker? To make the backgrounds less visible.

[bahmet]

A little idea. Can you highlight the match day when scrolling days like this? Only more readable.

[bahmet]

A little idea. Is it possible to make the bottom menu in the match like this? So that more space was in the match and it was not necessary to constantly curtail and unfold the match bar.

Would there be a remote possibility of having a light version of this skin? It is great looking! Would love to see a light background version of it.

This! Because with some stadium backgrounds the sidebar icons aren't visible.. 

[Guest]

I do not believe I will be adding any support for backgrounds. I do my utmost to ensure all modifications made are to enhance the user experience and although there are many who enjoy backgrounds, personally I find them awful. They are a waste of storage, they interfere with readability and they look tacky.

However, if anyone is looking to mod their own skin, off the top of my head, adding a "main_transparent_box" above the background image layer inside the "client_object_browser" may just do the trick 👍

I didn't understand a thing. But very interesting)

So what needs to be corrected to reduce background transparency?

PS Backgrounds add authenticity to competitions)

Found a little bug.  If you click on Tacitcs, then the + to add another tactic, then Create New Tactic, you get a blank screen.  Happens at any zoom level.  Doesn't happen in the default FM skin.  See the attached screenshot.

Hi @FMEnhanced,

great additions in the update 2.02. I love your attention to detail!

I identified a couple of elements in the Rensie skin which could be a nice addition to the current build.

Would love to see the following elements to be added (see Screenshots):

- Stadium pictures in the calendar fixtures

- Slightly bigger player faces for best/worst training performance 

- Add player faces to the team talk (like the idea that you are talking to your team and can see their reaction)

Happy to hear your thoughts on that.

Cheers

I find backgrounds awful too and I somehow seem to have turned them on for ALL skins somehow. It's pretty much destroying the game for me and ruins the Zealand skin.  I stupidly downloaded a background pack. I have since deleted it and cleared cache yet I get a stadium pic that renders the sidebar unusable. Even the default skin now does this.

 

Any ideas on how to fix this? 

 

 

edit: Not sure how I cocked it up but a complete reinstall fixed it.  Zealand skin is back to normal.

Add these two attached files to your panels/match folder. This gives you the stadium picture.

fixture details.xml fixtures list sub panel.xml

[Rivanov]

On my 27" iMac 5K I play in Windowed mode and have that window at exactly 1920x1080 resolution with 100% scale. The tablet can be set "full screen" in between highlights.

On my 14" MacBook Pro I also play in Windowed mode and the resolution of the window is 1512x870 with 85% scale. But during the match I can't expand the tablet.
Any way I can fix this with some code changes? 

I know it's defined in match in between highlights panel.xml

But I can't seem to fix it.

Hi mate ! Thank you for your great job !!! 
Just one question. Why it's all same stadium pictures in my all clubs page ? Thanks you for your answers.

 

[DavyDepuydt1]

on the team overview page of your own team, the stats of your own manager do no update... I'm 2 league games into the new season but my manager stats al show "-"

[BullDozzer]

This looks amazing! And I'm honestly shocked about the amount of features that can be included in a skin!

I'm curious if it's possible to make the touchline tablet adjustable in height just like it's adjustable in width?

Its a standard stadium picture . The game itself doesn't come with one . You can download stadium pics on here or google it

This is not an FME - Zealand problem. I tested the problem with the default skin and the same issue occured. I can try and fix it, but it would only cause me problems if FM also fix it in the future.

Can you please check with your default skin and see if subs work? If they do not, then sadly there is nothing I can do until FM fix it themselves.

Thanks for letting me know. It is something I have not been able to thoroughly test as I have not been able to begin a proper save of my own. The fate of a FM Modder. Too much time modding and not enough time playing.

I'll see about a fix for the next update 👍

Hello there!
Is there anyway to show the kits on the match screen?
I really miss them there. I think it's kinda pointless to put all those kits at the game and then they don't appear at the match screen (thanks, SI).
Tried other skins that show them but i didn't like any of them like i like yours.

It's certainly possible, though more trouble than would be worth while. As the panel is already horizontally expandable, its contents would have to be encapsulated in a panel which is vertically expandable which allow you to control both the X and Y axis.

It can be done, though I feel it is important to reiterate that the game is not well optimized for higher resolutions and making it so would be considerably more effort than adjusting the zoom scale.

As a 4K man myself, it seems a waste of the screen real estate, though as the game is so poorly optimized for high res, it's more of a blessing than a curse. Zooming in 125%, 150% or indeed 200% fits content a whole lot better and your resolution is not wasted as the text and images are considerably clearer than otherwise.

Within the game files, there are graphics specifically for higher resolutions with zoom scales.

For example: icon.png and icon@2x.png

The @2x graphics are higher resolution themselves and indicate SI's intention to get higher res people to adopt zoom scales instead of expecting them to be more accomodating.

Unfortunately, I don't see the point to be honest. Although I understand your passion to feel more emersed in the gameplay, real life broadcasts don't even show kit pictures constantly throughout a game.

On that note, I can say that I will look toward creating a better match experience in future updates.l 👍

I believe someone answered your question already, though I wanted to chip in. The default stadium image I have provided was created to ensure that even those without stadium graphics still have an enhanced experience.

The default alternative is considerably worse and proves no real benefit.

Hi Rivanov,

Unfortunately, as you may have noticed, there are three variables that determine the minimum, medium and maximum widths of the panel. They exist for a purpose.

The default skin is adaptable to all screen sizes and as such, it needs to ensure that nobody gets stuck. The panel saves its dimensions in memory and because of that, if you were to save your game and then downscale your monitor, without a min/max width variable, the left side of the panel would be out of the bounds of your screen and you would be unable to adjust it. The variables ensure that the panel always snaps into a predetermined usable place regardless of screen size.

For some people this sucks as although there may be a bit of extra space available upon removing the dugout, if their screen size is too small, their panel will always stop expanding at a particular point.

I believe Michael Murray has done some considerable work on the panels and would also be worth asking.

You will find the variables in the very top of the match in between highlights panel.

For example:

minimum = 600px (on screens up to 1356px wide)

medium = 900px (on screens up to 1600px wide)

maximum = 1200px (on screens up to 1920px wide)

With this example, you can see that even if you had a screen that was 1800px wide, it isn't enough to meet the "maximum" requirements and so the game limits you to the "medium" variable. So with a screen that was 1800px wide and not 1920px, you would be limited to 900px as your maximum panel width. This inevitably leaves a lot of free space, though it ensures that your screen is always capable of accomodating the panel.

Hmmm, I will have a look when I can. First be sure that you have cleared your cache and reloaded the skin after updating. Usually blank screens occur due to old data being stored in the cache.

I will look into this. Unfortunately, some of what you requested would not work. Making a responsive panel as complex as this required a lot of time. It's not other skins where they just put everything in a box and say "only for 1920x1080".

The height of the top section has been specifically set. Changing it would cause absolute chaos and so I advise against it.

The labels were used as an adaptable element so that when the stadium became too tall and distorted the image, the labels would appear to fill some space and keep the aspect ratio of the stadium.

With responsiveness, it is a balancing act. I tried to give everyone as much important info as possible, while sacrificing as little as possible. Clicking on the stadium name, takes you to the stadium page where you can view all info regarding the stadium and so not all is lost.

The the club overview view, I'm thinking the rivalries, favoured personnel, icons and legends can be made in to one panel. Right now the Key Players takes too much room, I'd substitute that in a second. That info is always just 4 players so the size is static pretty much. If there's problem to include the estimated values, rivalries and personnel etc, then perhaps add a scrollbar? Maybe make the Key Players part possible to substitute to something else and place that info in the bottom left by default. Estimated value should(?) fit fine in the top part under Continental Competition info, without affecting responsiveness too much. I mean for example Media Predictions can be found in the competition review info anyway.

Anyway, great job so far. We all have our preferences so it's hard to please everyone. But the panels make skins so modular that's at least a bit easier =)

What do you mean by estimated values? Which panel/label are you referring to?

I can only imagine that you have not take charge of any games yet. Did you go on holiday for those matches? If you take charge of a game, set a formation etc. then the info will definitely update.

Also the option to add how well each player is in a role on the tactics page

Hi @Pedrochapps. As much as I like other player "face" packs, the only one that has ever made sense to me is the cut-out faces. Firstly, they are faces and not faces + bodies. Secondly, when a player moves club, there is the annoyance of still seeing them in an old kit. In your case, Giovanni Reyna is plying his trade for Newcastle and yet he is still obviously and frustratingly sporting his Dortmund jersey.

If you would like to modify it yourself, you will need to edit this portion of the Player Overview Panel:

<!-- Card Contents -->

		<widget class="object_portrait_picture" image_alignment="centre" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" wants_mouse_events="true">
			<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="all"/>

As you can see, everything is "absolutely" positioned within a container. Playing with this will get you what you need, though I think you're better off considering the cut-out face pack instead. It also allows you to consider using the NewGan face pack which generates unique faces for newgens

The Backgrounds Stadium Pack is where you have gone wrong I believe. They are, as described, backgrounds. You need a simple Stadium Pack. The XML files which control the images do very different things. Additionally, what resolution are you running at?

Dear FME. 

Yes, apparently it is a bug.

 

Btw a feature addition recommendation, In the Tabs section you can add a Stats tab as well wherein a quick glance of players stats can be seen .

As follows: 

Of course it needs to be trimmed down/ remixed, but that you're an undisputed master of.

Another tab that could be added is of Scout Report of players not in squad, this will prevent 3-4 clicks from the user. BTW both these addition  can be done in form of panels if you like so/ is more suitable. 

Much appreciated.
