Dear Bravo that tool works like a charm.
Thank You .

[Godzyla]

I'm working on a batch script that reads air.ini file.
Plus other features like fixing QMB game crash.
I will post it later. I'm quite busy right now.

@Solo : my script is in french too.

I will also translate it in English for non french speakers

Hi folks
First, sorry for my bad english, it's a Deepl online traduction.

As the updates, reinstallation and download of skins and other campaigns the simulator's skins folder has grown.
With each version, the names of the planes declared in the air.ini files have sometimes evolved, so some skin folders can be missing and others completely obsolete.
So I dug up a little utility I had made with Epervier a few years ago and modified it. On the one hand to make it compatible with B.A.T version 4.2.2+hotfix4 and on the other hand to make it move useless directories into a backup folder.
Normally the utility does not delete anything, but make a backup of Paintschemes\Skins just in case.
2 versions of the batch file are there:
one in _FR for French speakers (my nationality language)
the second in _EN  for English speakers
Explanations of operation and use are in the ReadMe files
Files are on a server that only keeps archives for 1 month. If someone wants to get them back and put them on another server (mediafire for example), no problem.

See you later

Satanas (Solo was my old nickname here).

Tu peux m'envoyer le prog !
Je le mettrais à la place de cette archive (Create_SkinFolders.zip) dans "mon" Mediafire :

[Satanas]

Salut copain.
Tu as les liens dans mon post au dessus pour aller récupérer les 2 versions sur le serveur de Free.
Si tu ne peut pas les récuperer, passes moi ton mail en MP (je ne l'ai plus depuis le temps), je t'enverrais ça.
Si tu utilises IES, j'ai aussi une version qui fait le même boulot pour la V3.9 de ce mod. Je pourrais te la passer aussi.
Je l'ai passée a 2 membres du forum pour test et mise a disposition chez les EMS (uniquement en FR pour celle là).
J'ai prévu de bosser sur les versions pour Hsfx703, UP3.4 Cassie et VpModpack, mais je n'en suis qu'au début des adaptations, j'ai pas encore débuté les tests pour ces mods. Le testing, c'est ce qui me prends le plus de temps mais vu que j'ai déjà les versions BAT et IES qui tournent, ce ne devrait pas être trop compliqué.

J'avais oublié mes lorgnons...
J'ai renommé les archives pour que ce soit plus explicite..

Merci bien.

As I updated, modified, added, etc. my B.A.T mod, I realized that my skin folder was growing and that some liveries had become obsolete. Similarly, the planes.properties file contained unnecessary lines and some were missing.
I took the batch tool we'd made with Epervier, ran it under Powershell and added a more user-friendly interface, the ability to check the plane.properties and replace the original files with the updated ones.
The script doesn't do everything by itself, so you'll have to edit the plane.properties yourself.
Read the ReadMe.txt for more details.
Nothing is deleted, files or folders are moved to a backup directory or saved before being modified.
There are 4 versions of the script, for W7 and W10/11, in English and French.
The file will be hosted for only one month on the current server, so if anyone wants to retrieve the file and host it on a more permanent medium, no problem, thank you.

The file is Here

[Frankiek]

Nice tool and thank you  for this. Would it be possible to have a generic version that we can use in IL-2 versions different than BAT?

[Satanas]

hello Frankiek.
The problem is that each mod has its own architecture.
For some, air.ini and plane.properties are encapsulated in SFS files, others are not encapsulated but in sub-folders not bearing the same name, some activate periods with selctor and others with jsgme, etc....
For each mod, I have to rework the operating routines, adapt and then test them (very time-consuming to get something working with a minimum of bugs).
What's more, I'm not a programmer, I'm learning on my own, so my code is far from clean and optimized.
If you wants the plain-text ps1 file to work on, i can send it in PM. You'll pull your hair out when you'll see how bad where my tricks, but I can provide it.

I currently have 3 tools that work (not sure they're bug-free), one for B.A.T, another for IES and the last one (actually the first one I wrote in Powershell) for Ultraspain.
The only one translated into English is the one for BAT (and yes, I'm French, so I write script texts in my mother tongue).
Again, translation is therefore quite time-consuming for me, as I speak very little English and have to use online translators to be (at least I hope so) well understood by English speakers  .

[Frankiek]

If you want  I can help you with translation and adaptation for different IL-2 versions.  I am already doing this for my own consumption and do understand the batch file structure (never practiced Powershell though) and having worked for more than 30 years in a multilingual environment  this part come easy.
