I've downloaded some fantastic backgrounds, but they don't show when I'm playing a match. Can anyone help ? thanks

Can you describe what you have done when trying to get them working so far, step-by-step?

sports interactive - fm 07 - graphics - pictures - backgrounds

They all work fine exept when i'm playing a match
Please help. thanks

Have a look at the config file that comes with the pictures

Note the differences in the following lines

Lines that make the pics show on matchday look like this
<record from="arsenal" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/5114336/background"/>

Lines that make the pics show on all team screens look like this:
<record from="arsenal" to="graphics/pictures/team/602/background"/>

Have you only got lines that include "team"?
If so you will need the stadium id numbers. What league is it for? I may have the stadium IDs myself.

Or just download another pack and use the best pics out of each.

it's for the premiership. If you had some it would be great. thanks

Are they the same in yours? If not, Edit your config, delete your "stadium" lines and copy and paste these in. Save the config and see if it works, remember to untick "use skin cache" and tick "reload on confirm" again for the changes you've made.

I didnt really understand what you meant by "it says pictures/stadium but when i select the picture file there is no stadium sub-link".

The above assumes that the picture of highbury is called "arsenal", the anfield pic being named "liverpool" etc.

If your pics are named something different either rename the pictures or replace "arsenal" "aston villa" etc in the config lines with whatever the pictures are called.
