If the skin cache is on you'll need to turn it off, exit the Preferences menu and re-enter it and any new skins should appear, if not tick 'Always Reload Skin on Confirm' and change skins, click confirm and go back in and your skin should appear. When you load the game up if the skin cache is off any skins in the above folder should appear in the skins menu like the below image:
If done right your skins folder should look something like this: (you’ll need to reload the game for it to take affect) You can also change the location of your User Data folder if you wish or reset its location to default. If you cannot find your User Data folder, load up the game and go into the preferences -> General Screen, at the bottom of the screen should be a section headed User Data Folder, there should be a folder location listed in the box, this is the location of your user data folder, if you browse to that location on your computer (not through FM) there should be a skins folder located within that folder, this is where you put your downloaded skins.įor example Michael's User Data location is:į:\Michael\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2011\ as shown by the below screenshot: \My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2011\skins\ \My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2011 Demo\skins\
Now copy the files and folders into your skins folder within your User Data Folder, by default this is: When you extract the file you have downloaded, you should have one folder called base2011 (or base2011bg for the Background Enabled Skin) and two files, a readme.txt file and a config.xml file. Download Link is at the top of this page, and leads to Michael Murray's site.
The Background Enabled skin is slightly lighter than the Default Base Skin due to the Transparent Background so if you are not going to use Background images download the Base 2011 Skin. Michael Murray has put up some base skins that are identical to the default skins that come with the game, so you can add new files/graphics to these without messing up the original skins, and anything that isn't located in these new skin folders will be taken from the default locations within the game.Īt the moment there are two Base Skins to download (A Dark Base Skin and a Tree Base Skin will be added if/when said skin is released):īase 2011 Skin - This is the Default Base Skin and is identical in appearance to the Default FM2011 Skin.īase 2011 BG Skin - This is the same as the Base 2011 Skin apart from the fact that it uses Kev Radestock's mod to re-enable Background Images. As with Football Manager 2010 for you to make certain changes in Football Manager 2011 you need to create a new skin.
