Hi all,
Not sure if this is something everyone already knows or not, but just in case, I thought I'd mention my 'discovery'.
It's nice that you can have different default skins for summer and winter, but I also wanted to have different defaults for desert maps.
So, I did a bit of experimentation and I've managed to sort it.
I created a 'desert' folder in the files/3d0/plane/ etc folder (beside 'summer' and 'winter') and placed the correct files for a desert skin. I then added the correct lines to the filelist.
Then I opened the load.ini file for a desert map. I tried it on VP's Sands of Time, since I could access that one. Near the top is an entry for 'Camoflage = SUMMER'. I changed SUMMER to read DESERT.
Then, when I loaded up the map default skins would show a desert scheme if I had added the folder, and would then display their normal summer scheme on other maps.
I'm well chuffed
Of course, everyone might know this already, but still, I'm chuffed
