chaodck my man! I’d be very grateful if you could make me a home and away kit for the Bolivian side, Blooming. I’d like something simple as it’s the first season, but other than that I give you full creative license! Thanks mate.

Those kits are absolutely insane, chaodck. Love them both!
Today, for the first time in about 3 years, I had a mess around with photoshop and kits. It'd be fun to start doing some again.

Cheers Dale, amazing to hear you're back at kitmaking. I know they're expensive, but have you tried looking at the sportstemplates templates? I think I have a coupon for a discount. I have both football templates, so if you want it, it's all yours (I think it's 10% or 15% off).

The Sports Templates ones look very, very good but I just can't justify that price tag, unfortunately. Maybe one day

Hi guys,
Would love someone to make some kits for my Panthiraikos save.
Homekit is blue with a black trim whilst the away kit is white with a black trim.

jt feel free to tell me that you don't like these, and I can make any changes you'd like. I just wanted to have something for you, but nothing quite sat right with me when I was making them. I tried to keep them fairly simple and in line with what a lower league side would normally wear. I struggled with decent looking sponsors and I'm never happy with the blue I choose for blue kits So yeah, lemme know if I can change anything for you.

LO-VE-LY Kits Dale, absolutely astonishing, as I said on JT's thread the Santorini detail is amazing.

Thanks chaodck I really wasn't sure how I felt about them last night. I'm still not... But as long as JT likes them, then I'm happy with that. I think I worry about making kits that I like each time, instead of just worrying about giving the person what they actually asked for.

I'm very late to the party, but those kits are pretty special Dale. I love the simplicity and the sketch on the home shirt is a gem of a detail. It seems a popular move in Italy and I'm a big fan of that sort of thing (I usually call it a watermark but I don't know if that's even the right word for it).

I really enjoy doing kits, it's something I definitely need to do more of.

What information would either of you guys need to make me some Trapani kits for FM20? (If you have the time please...!)

What information would either of you guys need to make me some Trapani kits for FM20? (If you have the time please...!) As much or as little information as you'd like to give me (or us, because I'll tag chaodck and hope he doesn't see it, because his kits blow mine out the water) If you have any ideas for colours/style/sponsor etc then just let me know. Conversely if all you know is that you want some Trapani kits, that's also enough. I'll knock something up tomorrow (or tonight, but probably tomorrow)

I went to check Trapani's team colours, and I found out they are not in the game anymore in FM21! Apparently they are excluded from Serie C after not being able to field a team in consecutive games, and they are probably going bankrupt. Sad story...

I had a great save with them on FMT17 and so follow them to an extent. As you say, they've pretty much gone out of existence right now, though there will probably be some sort of phoenix club (hopefully!).
As you may have gathered from my Marina di Ragusa attempt, I keep an eye on Sicilian teams. Sadly, Trapani's case isn't an isolated one. I think FM17 had the biggest range of Sicilian clubs, but since then ACR Messina have gone and reappeared, Sicula Leonzio (who were in the game from FM18 to FM20) have gone bust after the owner couldn't keep funding them, Siracusa went out of existence and reformed and are working their way back up (I think they were in the sixth tier last season) and of course Palermo is the one everyone knows about. From what I've read, even Catania - who have at least managed to stay in existence in Serie C - have been wobbling on the brink on more than one occasion until a very recent takeover and they didn't end up in Serie C for footballing reasons in the first place!

Anyway, details! And thanks again for offering to create some for me. Trapani's kits in FM20 are claret (seems to be known as granata in Italy) (home), white (away) and black (third). From what I've seen over the last few years, they typically adopt the same design in all three colours, but whether you want to follow that or not is up to you. Here's a concept kit which I like a lot. Clearly inspired by a combination of the recent manufacturer and the 2014/15 shirt: I'd prefer a plain home shirt please. As mentioned before, I really like the 'watermark' detail in the bottom corner. I also quite like a sash or a side stripe as in this Finland shirt (link). Again, these details are up to you! With regard to manufacturers, I would just ask that you avoid the really big ones like Nike and Adidas. I like the thought of one of the smaller, possibly Italian, manufacturers like Macron, Lotto, Errea etc. I hope I've struck the right balance between providing detail and sounding like a fussy diva!

Hi mates, just saw this. Fantastic job dalenichol !!!! Truly amazing set of kits. I'm a bit off the kit world as of right now. My Photoshop is acting up and everything takes forever. I've got a monster computer (i7 9750 @ 2.60 GHz, 16 GB RAM DDR4, GeForce RTX 2060, SSD drive obviously software and files installed on the SSD), and still, just loading up and saving the textures takes around 3-4 minutes. Making a small adjustment on a layer almost freezes up the computer, so yeah I'm basically off until I can clean up my computer and re-install windows (probably soon as I bought a portable SSD which should arrive in a few months, mainly to backup my drives and re-boot everything).

Do I need to do anything special to get those kits to show up in game?

Do I need to do anything special to get those kits to show up in game? You need a config file. Send me a mail (chaodck (at) gmail (dot) com) with the team's UID (you can get that from the game, Preferences/Show Unique ID's, then click on the team's profile and see the number alongside the name) and the name of the files you have and I'll do it for you and send you instructions on how to use it.

Yeah, you'll have to use a config file. I thought I had one pre-made somewhere, but it seems I don't, so bear with me.
EDIT: Chaodck beat me to it and I'm gonna be occupied for the next few hours. If he can't get it sorted for you, I'll definitely check in later!
