    The Mod Thread - **New Players Go Here!**

    Hi guys,
    I've never seen this site mentioned so I thought I'd let you in on it.
    http://sortitoutsi.net/ is pretty great at getting all player pics, stadiums and new skins.

      To be fair, that thread is a beast if you don't check it every day. I'm going to change the thread title and sticky this for new players.

      We can share our favorite mod sites and packs here and give general help to players new and old with creating the best FM experience possible.

        I was sent there from the questions thread. I actually ended up subbing to get faster downloads. Because that cutout face pack was huge, and I wasn't about to download 10 separate parts to combine them.

          The thing's 930 pages long, I check it once a week and can't keep up with it.
          Just thought I'd post it to help new players, as they're never going to find it in the stickied thread.

          To be honest, I find it hard to find anything on this FM Subforum as everyone just posts everything in the stickied thread

            Since I was a jerk earlier, I'll use this as FM18 is released now.

            Normally I use the Metallic logos pack, have been since FM12, looking to change it up, what logo packs do people use?

              I switched away from Metallic myself towards the end of 17 to this one. Cleaner and smaller image files. The Metallic pack takes up gigs of space, while this one is under a gig of disk space. And I like the flat crisp look.

                    Ya fmscout seems to be the hot place so far this year. Everyone is uploading all their stuff there first. They have 9 skins up on there right now.

                    I personally don't like any of the ones currently out.

                        What skins have you fellas been using this year?

                        I just went to fmscout and found this Tiki Taka skin. I quite like it so far. Some of them are way too busy, but this one strikes a nice balance between having some interesting layouts, but not being too cluttered.

                          I've gone back to the classic wannachupbrew skin. Its basically the default dark skin with some tweaks to player profile and club profile. Not much else is changed. I find most skins now are way over done and crowded. I like a clean simple skin.

                            How soon after release do they submit facepacks?

                              The facepacks are something that can be used on any version of the game. The people that maintain them are always making updates. Which usually leads to more updates around the start of a new release and fewer as the year goes on. So you can download any one of them now, and then just add the updates as they come out.
