hi everyone,
i extracted the stadium backgrounds superpack into the graphic-> picture-> backgrounds already, but the backgrounds didn't change when the match is playing...
i mean they changed when i clicked the team name,but not changed during the game
for example, if there's a game held in Old Trafford, when the game is playing, the backgrounds of MU should be shown, but it didn't happen in my case.....
sorry, my english is not too good
but can someone give me a hand?
i need help with that...

Do you mean the same pic is shown on the team squad screens and also during a match?
If so, thats probably how the pack was designed to work. When someone makes a background pack they have to decide where they want the pic to show, either:
During the match only
On team squad/finance/fixtures etc only
Or displayed on both the above.
It is possible to make a pack that shows (for example) a Man Utd squad pic on the team screens and also an old trafford pic during the matches. However, most people dont seem to like background pictures on team screens as the text can be quite difficult to read.
Or did you just mean no picture showed up when you went to the match?
If thats the case, its just a team background pack and the maker hasnt put the stadium IDs in the config file. It'd be easy enough for you to edit, or just download a stadium background pack off sortitout.

Lines with "team" in like the above tell the game to show the picture called "arsenal" to show up on team screens of the team whos team ID is 602 (Arsenals, funnily enough!)
You need there to also be lines like this as well:
Lines with "stadium" in like the above tell the game to show the picture called "arsenal" to show up on the stadium screen of the team whos stadium ID is 5114336 (Arsenals, funnily enough!)
If Im not right up to now then just ignore the rest of this post and try and download another pack.
Does the pack just have premiership teams in? If so you could try the following. Copy the lines below and paste them underneath all the team lines in your premiership packs config file.
Save the config and reload the game, go to preferences untick "use skin cache" tick "always reload skin on confirm" and load your saved game up. Hopefully that would of worked.

Forgot to add, the config lines above assume the pictures are called arsenal, aston villa, blackburn etc.
If they are not then you have to change team names in the config lines to whatever the pictures are called. That may be a number or name of the stadium.
If the pics are named after stadiums you'll have to change the first line to:
<record from="emirates" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/5114336/background"/>
And every other line accordingly.
If the pics are named after stadium ids you'll have to change the first line to:
<record from="5114336" to="graphics/pictures/stadium/5114336/background"/>
And every other line accordingly.
I hope thats clear enough!

Are the Team ID numbers and the Stadium ID numbers the same?
If thats the case the maker may have made a mistake when writing the config. Many of the team IDs are different from their stadium IDs.
As an example from previous posts, arsenals team ID is 602 but their stadium ID is 5114336. If the maker put "602" in both the "team" and "stadium" line then only the team picture would show.

Where do I find the stadium ID?
Quoting myself... :-P
I found out that the IDs only come with the changes for the editor in the 7.0.2 patch. So for those not installing this patch, like me, just use the editor from a previous version of fm. I opened the editor for fm2005, and found all the IDs I needed there.
