Sortitoutsi.net has aload up already.

 

 

I know, thats where I got it from, but the ones on sortitoutsi are at the wrong image size so they look fucked up in the game, I have cropped them so they are now correct.

 

You can use mine or the wrong ones on sortitoutsi, its up to you.

Where to extract graphics to

 

A lot of people will already know where to put FM graphics but for those that don't, here's a guide.

 

First of all you need a program called winRar. As all graphic downloads are in .rar form you need this program to uncompress the files. Once you have downloaded a .rar file double click on it and it will open in winRar. Now right click on the folder you want to extract from the rar archive and click %u201CExtract to specified folder...%u201D You now need to navigate your way to the following directories depending on type of graphics you have downloaded. Below are the three main type of graphics and where the should be extracted to in red:

 

Default Kits: (If you are wanting install a new type of kit like 3gt or 2gt you will need the default template of that style of kit so when you download the actual kits made from the template they show up in the game):- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures\kits\default

 

Club Kits::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures\kits\clubs

 

National Team Kits::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures\kits\nations

 

Face packs::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures\players (and then you can also sort them into their different countries, if you like)

 

Skins::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\skins

 

2D/3D players::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pitch\icons

 

Balls::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pitch\balls

 

Competition logos::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures\logos/comps

 

Nets::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pitch\nets

 

Pitch icons::- C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pitch\icons

 

========================================

 

Most downloads come with a readme and this readme will usually tell you the location to extract to if you are unsure of where a particular download should go. This is especially true if you have to extract some graphics to an unusual place. And remember to back-up your original FM graphics before you replace them with any new graphics, in case you wish to return to the original graphics in the future.

 

 

And don't forget all FM2006 graphics will work in FM2007, so your player facepacks can be moved from your FM2006 directory to the same directory in FM2006. However skins made for FM2006 should not be used in FM2007. As the way the skins are made differs slightly and may crash FM2006.

 

========================================

 

How to put a background in FM

 

First off all you need a JPEG image that is the size of 1024x768. Rename the image "default". Copy and paste the image into C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\skins\(the name of the skin you want the background in)\graphics\backgrounds.

 

So if you wanted to change the background of the Turnstyle skin the diredctory would be:

 

C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\skins\Turnstyle\graphics\backgrounds.

 

========================================

 

How to install skins

 

1. Find out the links of the sites that have skins. Skins are normally situated in downloads--->graphics-->skins area of an FM site. Goal Kick's area for FM2006 skins can be found here.

 

2. Download the skin that you want.

 

3. Once downloaded use WINRAR or WINZIP to unzip the files.

 

4. Once unzipped extract them to C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\skins

 

5. Then load up your game and click preferences. Make sure you untick skin cache and then pick what skin you want from the list. This should be done with any skin.#

 

========================================

 

Large player pictures

 

Some skins allow you to display large player pictures. But if you've ever wanted your favourite skin to show large player pictures then continue reading.

 

A skin mod can be downloaded to customise other FM skins to display large player pictures as well. This mod can be downloaded from here. You will now be able to use large player pictures in all your other skins as well now.
