Hi mate, Make sure you untick ''Use Skin Cache''. And then restart FM. Then it should work without problems. Let me know if it works for ya mate!

Yep theyve taken effect now :)

Only prob i have is, is with the creased tops,

Villa , man city, Man utd, tottenham and west brom arent showing any shirts :(

Also the Arsenal away shirt keeps changing from O2 yellow to emirates Yellow :confused:

Is their something wrong with the cfg?

K its strange but some of the kits for the above teams show sometimes when i reload a saved game or start a new one but all the kits never show :/ its not always the right shirts either sometimes its the default ones :(

Oh yeah and its the teams information screen im looking at :)

tried deleting all the preloaded kit folders and even the default kits folder , to try and force the game to use the Arsenal home kit. But it aint happening :(



worst thing is ive checked all the prem teams and they have their 2gt kits np, incl any 3rd strips :(

ok ive found the problem with the creased premierleague shirts not showing properly for villa,man city,man utd, tottenham and west brom.


The xml file has got the wrong named files in it ;)
The creator has used abbreviations
e.g the actual visual creased kit is named aston_villa_home but the xml config is looking for a file called villa_home.

I believe this is what caused the clubs kit to show nothing then sometimes when u went back one of the strips might appear.

Ive corrected the kit folder by matching the xml to the file name and now all my kits in prem league are present :)


Also regarding the arsenal creased kits i del the kits with Emirates logos and edited the xml, so now i just have the 3 O2 sponsored kits. This actually stops the kits switchin between sponsors and shows the home and away kit ingame np now :)


If u install a kit pack and find the kits dont show properly for a team , check the xml entries against the actuall kit pics name in that folder :)

ok played the game properly since doing the above and still find Arsenal Home kit wont show for matches :/ but the kits show np in team information :/

Ok after playing the 1st season the arsenal home shirt appears in match now :)

But im also getting a red and white(emirates sponsored) home shirt , weird thing is i removed them from the kit pack. So the game must have some kits stored in its folders somewhere :p

Also b4 anyone says the kit might be in the games cache, I removed the emirate kits b4 running the game for the 1st time :)

Did you not only remove the kits themselves but the lines in the config file too?
