This custom download will add custom background pictures to Football Manager 2024. Created by Stevemc.
As per the last 5 years, I work on background projects, I’ve been doing this for my own personal use, but decided to share with the community a couple of years ago and will continue to do so for FM24, something I've built up over 7-8 years now and continue to improve and flesh out further with each edition of FM.
I’ve made a lot of changes for FM24, 1000’s of additions and better-quality images included, code updates, future stadiums currently being built etc and I've been working on it intensively for the last 3 months. This is definitely the BEST and most comprehensive update I’ve ever done to these packs.
All are 2560x1600 resolution, which is basically current MacBook Pro Retina size, and the quality is superb (HQ) in most instances (forgive some of the obscure people/places). They have been compressed, twice, to their smallest file size possible without loss of quality so they are easier to download.
Features
There are seven different background packs and all can be downloaded individually by using the link above.
- Stadiums
- Competitions
- Nations
- Continents
- Referees
- Manager & Staff
You will require a skin that supports transparency for these to work. So you either have to download a skin that supports backgrounds, or create one on your own.
