Like FM13 the match screen we have in Football Manager 2014 is a hybrid TV-Classic view mode where again if there are no hightlights you are left on the pitch view instead of switching back to the last panel you were on, where we are left with a small pop-up giving us some information like the old TV-View widgets.

Thankfully this pop-up is editable, which is what these skins do they resize the pop-up and modify the contents of the panels to show the full panel details where possible.

A new feature for Football Manager 2014 is I have modified the panel to use the adaptive panels seen elsewhere this means the panel will now resize itself depending on what resolution you are using (meaning no editing of the xml file just to get it working) and will also display extra panels if you have the space.

To make things easier this year I have made the mod into a skin which means there are a couple of different versions available depending what skin you are using and what you want:

There are two basic versions of the Adaptive Version of the mod (manually adjustable ones will follow once I've got them working):

Normal - Maximizes the size of the in-between match highlights panel positioned in the centre of the screen and leaving space for the match feed notifications down the right. (For the FMC version some of the match feed overlays the panel even in this mode as the feed takes up more room in FMC mode).

Wide - Maximizes the size of the in-between match highlights panel, but this time uses up the full width of the screen, this allows for more information to be shown at smaller screen resolutions, but the match feed items when displayed will cover parts of the top right side of the panel.

There are then three versions of each one for each of the default skins and the FMC mode skin.

Outside of the match screen the skin is identical in appearance to the default FM14 skin or the official dark FM14 skin if you download the dark version.

NOTE: The dark version of the mod requiries you to have installed the Official Dark Skin which can be obtained through the Steam Workshop
