The default looks like this since 4.x - always:
Thank you. I understand you perfectly, and I understand what should be. I have it, but nevertheless those screensavers work :D :D
I'll look more closely where they might be later.

For some reason, the old screensavers are constantly working, although I turn on the new ones. I tried to find them among the files, but I could not find them .. Probably they are hardwired into "sfs" somewhere.

Yes, Stock and SAS Modact backgrounds are still there, buried in SFS...

................

BAT is built upon the International version of IL-2, the issue comes from your locale=ru. To make it work you will have to use something like (untested):

background0_ru.mat
background0_ru.tga
background1_ru.mat
background1_ru.tga
background2_ru.mat
background2_ru.tga
...

background0_ru.mat would look something like this:

Code: [Select]
[ClassInfo]
  ClassName TMaterial
[Layer0]
  TextureName background0_ru.tga
  tfNoWriteZ 1
  tfNoDegradation 1
  tfMinLinear 1
  tfMagLinear 1

Check other posts and experiment a little. I am sure you will figure it out, DESPEREAUX!

Thank you very much Whistler!  :D
 Yes, I'll figure it out, I'll experiment ;) To be honest, I suspected that it might somehow be related to "RU" but did not have time to check))

Evidently I didn't take a close enough look at the download. I thought there was only one background. Well that's what I get for thinking......  OK, I only saw the first link. I have them all now. Thank you much!

I find the BAT bare-metal backdrop quite dreary, the stock 4.12.2m backgrounds have just enough character to make the main menu "pop". How might I go about restoring the default main-menu backgrounds?

The old type BAT backdrops are delivered as a BATMODS option
