Football Manager 2017 - Scoreboard Logos Mod

This is a simple mod that restores the club logos to the Scoreboard on the Match Pitch view in Football Manager 2017, aswell as adding a Competition logo.

IF YOU ARE USING THE FMTouch MODE THEN YOU WANT THIS PAGE

It is designed to work on skins based on the Default FM17 skins, for skins that have a different match scoreboard from the default you'll need to modify the files yourself.

To apply to your game you just need to download the below file, extract the zip file and put the 'match' folder in the panels folder for the skin you are using, if you are using one of the Default Skins then download the relevant Base Skin, add the file to that skin and switch to the Base Skin in game. (If you have the skin cache on you may need to turn it off and reload your skin for the changes to show up).

Note if the Skin you are using already has a 'match title bar score.xml' file you'll need to follow the advanced instructions further down to create the mod on your own as overwriting your skins custom scoreboard may cause problems.

How to Create the Mod

If you just want to download and use the mod download the above link, the below instructions are only for people who want to know what coding needs changing to create the mod, are using an unsupported custom skin or want to know how to edit the mod to adjust the sizes or positions of the logos.

The file that needs to be modified is 'match title bar score.xml' located in the panels\match folder of the skin you are using, if the file isn't present then you can extract the file from the panels\match folder of the fm skin located within the skins.fmf file.

To add the Competition Logo, locate this line of code:

<!--clock-->

And directly above that code paste in the following code:

<!-- comp logo -->

<widget class="picture" id="fxCo" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" height="18" width="25" image_alignment="left, centre_y">

<layout class="centre_in_parent_attachment" alignment="vertical" offset="0"/>

<record id="object_property">

<integer id="get_property" value="mnpc" />

<integer id="set_property" value="file" />

</record>

</widget>

<!-- end of comp logo -->

To add the Home Team Logo, locate this bit of code:

<!--home team name -->

<widget class="text_button" id="T1nm" size="9" auto_size="horizontal" alignment="right,centre_y" click_event="htac" style="semi_bold">

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />

</widget>

And directly above that code paste in the following code:

<!-- home team main logo -->

<widget class="picture" id="hmtF" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" height="18" width="25" image_alignment="left, centre_y">

<layout class="centre_in_parent_attachment" alignment="vertical" offset="0"/>

<record id="object_property">

<integer id="get_property" value="htpc" />

<integer id="set_property" value="file" />

</record>

</widget>

<!-- end home team main logo -->

Finally to add the Away Team Logo, locate this bit of code:

<!--away team name -->

<widget class="text_button" id="T2nm" size="9" auto_size="horizontal" alignment="right,centre_y" click_event="atac" style="semi_bold">

<layout class="stick_to_sides_attachment" alignment="vertical" inset="0" />

</widget>

And directly above that code paste in the follow code:

<!-- away team main logo -->

<widget class="picture" id="awtF" scale_picture="true" keep_aspect_ratio="true" height="18" width="25" image_alignment="left, centre_y">

<layout class="centre_in_parent_attachment" alignment="vertical" offset="0"/>

<record id="object_property">

<integer id="get_property" value="atpc" />

<integer id="set_property" value="file" />

</record>

</widget>

<!-- end away team main logo -->

The above code will display a logo of dimensions 25x18 (small icon size) to the left of the team names as per the above screenshots.

To increase the size of the logo you just need to increase the height/width values for each bit of code above.

To move the logo to the right of the team names you need to paste the new code below the existing code (green code above) and change where it says left in bold to right, the logo will then appear to the right of the team name.
