Any idea how to do random in Win7 instead of selecting? I had one for XP I liked that randomized all the UI screens, but couldn't make the randomizer work under Win7... Basically had a Screen folder, and within that, folders for splash screen, each countries mission screen and so on. Every launch gave a new look - just drop new pictures in the respective folders and viola!

Interesting, it would be nice to add that as another option.  I will found out how.

Cool.. The heart of it was the file randomizer. The bat file pointed it at the right folder (each had the little randomizer exe in it), then it grabbed a random one from the folder and copied it to the correct name. The bat file then copied it to the correct folder for IL2 to see. Problem is, the randomizer doesn't work in Win7 and I haven't found a simple one that does.

looks amazing! this is a will for me. But just a Q do you have any Korea photos.

Oh yes!  As you can see, the download is not that large.  So each subsequent version will include ten more screens and the randomiser when figured out.

Korea is next up in V4.0, along with this new screen-pack featuring more WWII with new Emils...

may be that

Code: [Select]

@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
del list.txt
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir /b /s /a-d findstr /R *.tga') do set "xx=%%a" && echo !random! !xx:%cd%\=! >> list.txt
for /f "tokens=1* skip=30" %%a in ('sort list.txt') do copy %%b "%CD%\..\Files\gui\background.tga"skip=N actualy if U have more then N+1 pictures

Didn't quite follow all of that but I'll experiment with it a bit... I really want to get that going again for my install as I have hundreds of in-game shots that I made into splash and mission screens...

its good working with 00_Ecran_Wide,
simply extract this to il-2 root folder and start with "\background\IL2FB - NewBG.bat"
