Does anyone know how to ge stadium backgrounds which can be used when playing the matches of fm08? I remember the 1st few series of CM actually did have them within the game and I think it's been a step backwards since not having them. I have seen some threads on here with pics of them but anyone who has used them within the game Id love to hear from you.

download a stadium pack and it shows them in the matches. I like it especially with stecklos skin looks very good :thup:

Westhamrob,

I did manage to download them and all was brilliant, I was 2-0 up, stadium as background but when I went to tactics it crashed and background went white once I re-started and so I cant play the game. I've now had to uninstall it so details on where the pics go would be most helpful etc?

You may have to make the graphics, pictures and backgrounds folders if you don't have them. Then reload skin.

Can you use the default skin or do I need the stecklos one?

Your best using Steklo Skin mate, Show's up better.

Frankie,

I really appreciate your help, new skin works but backgrounds have not appeared when playing matches. It's now just the grass background as in default of the steklo skin?
I have put them in

In your backgrounds folder, Do you have a stadiums folder as well with all your stadiums inside?
