*** FM17 thread ***

Download them then unzip them. Copy the folders into Documents (or My Documents depending on Windows version) then Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2017\graphics.

You may have to create the graphics sub-folder if it isn't already there. I've made sub-folders in graphics to keep my kits, faces and logos separate from each other.

Then go into FM17 and Preferences and clear/re-load the cache to get the game to see the new graphics files. :)

Sorry for being dim but how to you clear/re-load cache?
Click to expand...
From the main menu of the game click on Preferences. On the next screen look to the menu bar at the top of the screen and click on Preferences and from the drop-down menu choose Interface.

On the bottom left of the screen is a button to Clear Cache and tick boxes to 'Use caching to decrease page loading times' and 'Reload skin when confirming changes in Preferences'.

I have Use Caching disabled and Reload skin enabled. Confirm these changes and your graphics should appear when you load up your FM save game.

Here's the tactic I've settled on with Leipzig, still only a couple of seasons in:



The front four do great work, although I'm not entirely convinced by Scarpa. He's one of those players who looks great at first glance but when you look a bit closer you notice that he has no stand-out stats. I would play Forsberg there as IF-s but he's been out for 7 months with a broken leg :(
