yeah i think i know what the problem could be. My guess is you're playing on a lower, maybe 4:3 reslolution? To keep the sb simple and easy to edit i used just one texture for the sb. And since other textures would hide the timer (its the lowest layer), i used the timer texture as the overall sb-texture. cjd17 however used several textures for his sb, just like fifa11 itself. Smart man
... But the visibility of the sb's timer texture seems to be handled diffrent then the rest of the sb in lower resolutions. So there are more transparent... i guess???
Then again, and to get that out there: i made these sb's for myself to pimp my game and then i wanted to share them with anyone to let other people enjoy that too! I never did and never will hide the fact that i am still a n00b in editing game content as complex as the scoreboards, and im not aiming to make a stone solid and 100% bugfree gameaddition. Then again, not even EA did that XD ... so if i stumble upon a solution to that problem i'll correct that, that i can asure you. But if not, then im sorry :-/
But i'll share what i've learned about the editing of sb's pretty soon, so maybe you or someone else can correct stuff like that themself. And if there are any coders out there, i hope it will help them to get started on a sb-editing-tool ... if the upcoming cm11 versions doesnt include one, that is.
