풋볼 매니저 2023 Skins Installation Guide

소개

Welcome to the Football Manager 2023 version of the Skins Installation Guide

This guide will show you how to install skins correctly into Football Manager 2023.

In addition the instructions unless stated are generally the same regardless of whether you are using the Steam, Epic or Game Pass version of the game, are gaming on Windows, Mac or Linux or purchased a disk or digital copy of the game.

Please note you are advised as always to run a virus scan on any file downloaded from the internet. Sports Interactive or SEGA have no control over third party content and as such third party downloads are used at your own risk. It is also advisable to read any instructions on the download page for the content you are installing (or found in the readme that comes with the download) as they may contain any extra instructions that are specific to that skin.

How To Install Skins

This part of the guide will cover how to install skins, first note that skins will only work on the version of the game they are designed for (so FM21 skins will only work with FM21 and not FM20) and Touch and Full Mode skins aren’t compatible so if you are using the Touch version you will only be able to use Touch skins.

After you have downloaded a file it will generally come in one of three formats: zip, rar or 7z file.

Zip files should be automatically supported by your OS and may show up as compressed folders, Rar and 7z files may require you to download some software to extract the files.

리눅스: If you are using Linux hopefully you know how to download and locate programs for Linux already.

7-Zip is installed using the .exe you download, following the instructions on-screen. To install The Unarchiver simply double click on the .zip file you download from their website then drag the program it extracts (called ‘The Unarchiver’) into your apps folder.

Once installed, create a new folder somewhere you can keep track of (on your desktop for instance) and place your downloaded graphics zip, rar or 7z in it. Now we extract:

윈도우: Right click on your zip, rar or 7z. Choose 7-Zip from the menu, then select ‘Extract Here’.

MacOS X: 마우스 오른쪽 버튼을 클릭하세요. (or ctrl + 딸깍 하는 소리) on your zip, rar or 7z. Choose ‘open with’ then select ‘The Unarchiver’.
Your file should extract and most probably create a folder in the same directory.

If you extracted an fmf file (or just straight downloaded one) this isn’t a problem, these are just files that have been packed using the FM Resource Tool, and as an end user there is no need for you to mess around extracting these files, just think of these as the same as the folder you’d get from extracting the files.

Locating Your User Data Location

Once you have downloaded and extracted your files, you now need to move them over to your User Data Location so they can be read by the game.

First make sure you have run the game at least once (just getting to the start menu and exiting is fine) so the game can create the required folders for you.

윈도우

By default your User Data Location is located within the Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023 접는 사람.

MAC Users:

By default your User Data Location is now located within the Users\[Your Mac Username]\Library\Application Support\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023 접는 사람.

By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:

– Open Finder

– 딸깍 하는 소리 ‘가다’ from the menu bar

– Press and hold down the ‘옵션’ (Alt) 열쇠

– This will bring up the ‘도서관’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘스포츠 인터랙티브’ -> ‘Football Manager 2023’

After you have opened the correct Football Manager 2023 folder you should see a list of folders and what you need to do is locate the folder called 스킨, if this folder doesn’t exist then just create a new folder and call it 스킨.

Now open up your 스킨 folder and place the files you extracted inside it.

If it is an fmf file you have downloaded then just place this file directly inside the skins folder.

If you have a folder after extracting the files then you need to make sure you are copying over the correct folder because if the skin files are nested inside another folder they will not work.

So you need to open the folders you extracted until you find a folder that is laid out like this with the skin_config file present;

You then want to grab the parent folder to this folder and copy that into your

스킨접는 사람, if done correctly it should look like this:

How to Install Workshop Skins

To install Skins via the Steam Workshop.

• Locate the Workshop page for the skin you want to install.
• Click on the Green Subscribe button.
• Steam should now download the skin in question and install it for you.
• If the skin doesn’t download automatically you may need to exit Football Manager, and change the Downloads tab in Steam to manually start the download.
• After the skin has been downloaded, then see the next section on how to switch to it in-game.

Displaying Skins In Game

To select the skin in game you will need to load the game, 그리고 안으로 들어가 환경설정 Menu, then on the 개요 tab down the screen a bit you should have a section called Interface and in that is an option called Skin with a drop-down menu under it.

If you select the drop-down menu it should list all of the skins you have installed, if the skin you want is listed then just select it and press the Confirm button to load it.

An alternative option is from the 환경설정 Menu, Select the Advanced tab, then in the drop-down menu on the right select Interface.

Then the first option you should have is the Skin option with the ability to select your chosen skin from the drop-down menu on the right:

Then click Confirm at the bottom, this should then take you out of the Preferences menu but if you re-enter, it should have refreshed the list of skins and your skin should now be in the list.

Once the skin is loaded you can turn the skin cache back on and un-tick the Always Reload button.

문제 해결

첫 번째 단계

• Second re-read the above guide to ensure you have followed each step.

Problems with Your User Data Location

• You need to run the game first to generate the default folders.
• First check to make sure the game has created the default folders inside your location (스킨, games etc…)
• If the game hasn’t created the default folders then check to make sure the path you set and the folder you are looking in are the same ones.
• With Windows the Library feature can sometimes combine several folders so you may be putting your content in the wrong location.
• With Windows 10 having OneDrive backing up your Documents folder may cause issues, try telling OneDrive not to index the Sports Interactive sub-folders or move your User Data Location.
