I wanted to change the attribute colors like I did for FM2005, but i've encountered a problem.

I've changed the color values in \Football Manager 2006 Beta Demo\data\settings\fm colours.xml, but it seems to apply only to metallic and metallic(right) skins. Metallic2006s' attribute colors don't change. I've searched for a colors file in these skins (2006s), but there is none. Where am I doing wrong?

I've solved the problem; there is a newly added cache folder (in data directory) which caches the skin files. I deleted the files inside the folder and the changes came into effect

Same happens wioth facepacks and logos. Works in Metallic, but not metallic 2006

So in theory if i removed this the facepacks and logos and the like would appear too?

Yes, you need to disable skin cache when adding any logos etc...

There are four attribute groups is FM2006 as you'll see in the fm colours.xml file (which is in ...\Football Manager 2006 Beta Demo\data\settings directory):


<!-- profile attribute colours -->
<colour name=" low attribute " red="255" green="84" blue="92"/>
<colour name="normal attribute" red="255" green="255" blue="255" />
<colour name="good attribute" red="255" green="255" blue="0" />
<colour name="[B]excellent attribute[B]" red="0" green="255" blue="0" />

Here, low attribute contains the values from 1 to 5, and the others 6-10; 11-15; 16-20 respectively. The skin you've applied is for FM2005 and has only three attribute groups. This must be the reason why some attributes are blank.

I'm not sure but you can try to add the missing attribute group to the fm colours.xml file of the skin to solve the problem. Nevertheless, it's possible that there will be more problems because of the differences between FM2005 and FM2006; so it's best to use the default skin for the demo imo (till someone revises the old skins for FM2006 ).

I wouldn't advise adding any FM 2005 skins to FM 2006... you could have endless amounts of problems/crashes
