How To Stop the Blurring Effect when ProcessingįM2016 introduced a new feature where when the main screen isn't thefocus of the screen it blurs out, however if you don't like this effectit is simple enough to disable it, to do this simply browse to thefollowing location within the Base Skin you are using: If the skin cache is on you'll need to turn it off, exit thePreferences menu and re-enter it and any new skins should appear, ifnot tick 'Always Reload Skin on Confirm' and change skins, clickconfirm and go back in and your skin should appear. When you load the game up if the skin cache is off any skins in theskins folder should appear in the skins menu like the below image: If done right your skins folder should look something like this:Īnd inside for example the base17 folder you should have the following folders: home/documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2017/ Users//Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2017/ Now copy the folder into your skins folder within your User Data Location, by default this is:Ĭ:UsersDocumentsSports InteractiveFootball Manager 2017 When you extract the file you have downloaded you should have onefolder (with a name starting base17.) and a readme.txt file. So to make things easier for people I've put up some base skins thatare identical to the default skins that come with the game, so you canadd new files/graphics to these without messing up the original skins,and anything that isn't located in these new skin folders will be takenfrom the default locations within the game.įor Football Manager 2017 you have three skins to choose from theDefault (Greenish) with Background Support skin, the Light skin and theDark skin.īase2017 Skin - This is the Greenish Background Support skin and is based on the Default Football Manager Skin.īase2017 Dark Skin - This is the Dark Base Skin and is based on the Football Manager Dark Skin.īase2017 Light Skin - This is the Light Base Skin and is based on the Football Manager Light Skin. NOTE: If you are using Football Manager Touch 2017 then please see this page as I have decided to separate them out this year.Īs with most recent Football Managers for you to make certain changes in Football Manager 2017 you need to create a new skin.
