koen.westerveldd Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Hi All, I was wondering if there is a logo pack available with the logo's for the lowest English leagues. I started managing Poole Borough (L11), because they have a logo in the game. I want to take control of a lower league team, but they don't have a real logo. Is this possible with the game editor or not? Anyone got some tips? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaW Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Doubt someone has made it, unless they made it while also creating the leagues, as I assume some teams would need to be created. If you want, you can create on yourself without much knowledge other than minor image editing and some copy/paste from other logo packs. Just ask @Johnny Ace, he knows how to add for Belarus at least 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

koen.westerveldd Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 One logo is more than enough, I though they look silly when they qualify for CL without a logo I am now using the TCM logo pack, almost completely fills till L11 in England. Do i need the ingame editor or can I add the logo (when i find it) in the graphics file? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can add it to your graphics pack, you need (I think) the team's ID then you need to make a little edit to the config file, @XaW can point you in the right direction because I messed it up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a file, then all you need is the logo you want in two files 200x200 px and 20x20 px with transparent background. Both files need to named "<uniqueID>.png". Depending on how your file structure for icons and logos are set up you need to get the big file in with the other big files and in the config.xml, add the following line: <record from="<uniqueID>" to="graphics/pictures/club/<uniqueID>/logo"/> Obviously change the <uniqueID> for the actual ID of the team, ie, the same as the filename. Then get the small file in with the other small files and fine the config.xml in the same folder and add: <record from="<uniqueID>" to="graphics/pictures/club/<uniqueID>/icon"/> Then reload skin and you should have it in the game. It might seem a bit hard, but it's actually quite easy once you get the hang of it. The biggest issue I find is actually finding the logo and removing the background, as I'm not good at image editing. Resizing can be done in paint, and then it's just moving files and adding one line into each of the two config files, really. Even @Johnny Ace understood it! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the logo files was 180x180 and 18x18 (25x18) I just looked at the ones I had and they were in 200x200 and 20x20, so I created mine in the same way, and it works fine. Perhaps the game allows for some margin? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grade Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Perhaps… there were some logos this size that had a gap 30px from the edge of png and the logo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowestLeagueHero Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) There is a logo pack for the level 20+ league FM20 file of Dan BHTFC. And since the club IDs haven't changed since FM20 you should be able to still use those logos. EDIT: found it - there you go. I used this logo pack in FM20 and I used it again im FM23 so I can confirm that it works. You may have to adjust your logo config files. (I didn't use any other league files with Dans, no idea if using multiple league files at once is even possible with that gargantuan english pyramid.) You can definitely add the logos manually to the existing config files, I tested that. @AhMostyn Thank you very much for those logos, they made (and still make) Dans file so much more enjoyable for me.

koen.westerveldd Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) @LowestLeagueHero are these divisions playable in FM 23? I Really want to start on the lowest level Edit: I see a level 15 division in the steam workshopfor FM 23. Is it possible to use this file in FM 23?

LowestLeagueHero Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 If the file is for FM23 it should be playable. But to be honest - I avoid using files from the steam workshop. Too many people upload files there that aren't thoroughly tested and bug out after a couple seasons. (Dans FM23 file seems to be level 11 "only" for now, at least I didn't find another one with a quick search.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
koen.westerveldd Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 Well, it said FM 20 what you sent. So i don't think it's playable. Maybe this November there will be a level 20 league available. What FM version are you playing? This is the one I found at steam: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this November there will be a level 20 league available. What FM version are you playing? That is a misunderstanding, I guess. You originally asked for lower league logos. And the logos in the post I linked (the post by AhMostyn ) are perfectly compatible with FM23 (I verified this with a certain PL logo not included in the vanilla game ). The league files by Dan from the starting post of that topic are not compatible, however. I played FM20 up until April this year (due to an ongoing manager story in another forum) and then switched to FM23.

koen.westerveldd Posted August 24, 2023 Author Share Posted August 24, 2023 Sorry, my mistake. I recently upgraded from FM 16 to FM 23, so I am looking for options to expand/extend the league experience from the lowest level of football. I saw I couldn't bring the tactics/training/etc. from the game, so i have to start over with all these things. I will look later today if I get the logo packs working in FM 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

koen.westerveldd Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 Sorry guys, I can't test if the logo pack works in FM23. The database file from steam won't work.

It looks correct to me, if the png's are in the same folder as their respective confic file, it should work based on what I see there.

hufcpaul Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 FM Slovakia has them down to about level 9 I think. You can add your own though by downloading KitBasher, also lets you make your own kits as well which is decent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
