For the SAS BAT Selector gods,
So I understand that when "il2fb.exe" runs, it loads the options in "il2fb.ini", which contains the BAT Selector available versions.
For BAT, there are 6 choices (Stock, SAS ModAct, BAT DOF, BAT TGA, BAT WAW and BAT JTW). The current choice in the "ini" file is indicated by "ModType=" so if you have "ModType=5" (counting from 0 to 5), it is JTW.
My question is:
* Is there a way to tell "il2fb.exe" to start with a particular module without changing it in BAT Selector? Say something like
il2fb.exe /Version=5 //to start JTW
il2fb.exe /Version=2 //to start DOF
etc...
Is that possible?
Why? This is really for UQMG 46 Max. The upcoming update to the public Alpha will include the planes of BAT 4.3, as well as the addition of TGA and JTW. It would be nice when you switch versions in UQMG that when you click the green "Start/Switch to IL-2" button, it starts the correct module without the user having to go to BAT Selector to make another change. Just figured I'd ask.
If that is not possible today, is that something that can be implemented? I would imagine the command would have to look into "il2fb.ini" for current options, and the mods folder, like #JTW3, maybe that could be the feature... the BAT Selector options can be input as a string that has all the desired options...
Like...
il2fb.exe -Custom:"Mod=5/Folder=#JTW3/Ram=512/Exp=1/Mem=0/Cache=0/Multi=0/Splash=1/Dump=0/RamAuto=1" anyhoo, something like that...
Finally this would be useful for advanced users who would like to have different shortcuts to batch files to start different modules directly.
