B.A.T. is born and Random Skies v2.1 sees the light!

- Compatibility with B.A.T.
- Files/QuickLaunch.bat is now included if you do not want to use the executable
- Launcher images folders can be disabled with a minus (-folder). Some tbauchot launcher images replaced with better ones
- New 'Load conf.ini' menu entry. Any custom conf*.ini will be detected.
- Console log and Instant log menu shortcuts reworked to allow any filename and extension. More logs added to the menu.
- Top menu reorganized (again). Improved Folders and Config menus and wider back up options.

The mod is now compatible with B.A.T. and the Launcher is vastly improved, everyone should update regardless of the install you have! First post updated!

Many thanks Whistler for your amazing little program which I have had since its first release, installed in CUP and VPM and working perfectly,however I cannot get the program to randomize textures when loaded in BAT. Same sky for every map, only changing if the game is restarted and only once. After much experimentation (downloading new program and reinstalling) I have found the randomizer only works if DEF-SKIES_#WAW2 is disabled not enabled in JSGME as per your instructions. I have not tried other modules yet.

Tell me flapper, what map does not work? We shall report it to Monty - 99.9% chances it has nothing to do with the mod.

By the way, here you have a couple of launcher images for your respective B.A.T. and VP Modpack installs. Place them in your Random Skies/Images folder if you like them!

Thanks for the Launcher icons Whistler. I tried almost all the QMB maps.

Here are my test results: B.A.T. WAW EXP6 - DEF-SKIES_#WAW2 enabled in JGSME - Test sky texture

Maps (in order):

BAT_Aleutians: Test sky texture ok
BAT_Ardennes_S: Test sky texture ok
BAT_Balaton_S: Test sky texture ok
BAT_Battle_for_Moscow_A: Test sky texture ok

Maps (random):

BAT_Channel_40A: Test sky texture ok
BAT_El_Alamein: Test sky texture ok
BAT_Slovenia_Summer: Test sky texture ok
BAT_South_VietNam(PS): Test sky texture ok

I won't be testing all maps. Download below the (post-apocalyptic  ) texture I use to run tests, place it in the Random Skies/Textures/Custom folder, run the mod (select Custom skies). Sometimes it is difficult to tell if the sky has changed or not, this test sky will help you identify if the mod is working or not:

Give it a try. If the mod does not change the sky in the maps I tested, then there is definitively something going on in your install... It works fine here.

Thanks Whistler - though that post-apocalyptic sky will give me nightmares for a week. Can you confirm that all available textures are in the "TB+VP_Sky_Textures_Pack"?

[whistler]

Yes flapper, all textures found in the posts below are included in the pack:

- tbauchot's New sky textures Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5
- vpmedia's Sky textures

• Light: 18 sky textures
• Medium: 54 sky textures
• Heavy: 22 sky textures

There was a further take from SAS~Tom2 on MTO skies based on vpmedia's that was NOT included in the pack. I do not think there are many more sky textures around...

Hi peeps anyone got an alternative d/l for this? M4T has been down for 2 days now??

[whistler]

Alt download location added to the first post. Yes, the guys over at M4T are having trouble lately. Hope they get the site up again soon and no data is lost...

[PO_MAK_249RIP]

Thanks whistler M4T is back up but the original download has been disabled??
