*********  Attack-in-the-West-1940  Aircraft subfolder editor  *******************



One of the features of the AITW40 addon is to generate random skins in campaign and single mission modes. 

Up to 255 (!) skins with different markings are possible for each aircraft slot. You can thus add as many skin subfolders (named 1, 2, 3, 4, ...) you wish to each aircraft folder.

However, the AITW programmes must know the number of skin subfolders among which a particular skin has to be randomly choosen. These informations are contained in RANDPLAN.FIL.

This small DOS automatically edits Randplan.fil. It displays the current setting of skin subfolders and it can make changes to the current number of skin subfolders.

If you make changes to the AITW40 install by adding new skin subfolders :

Drop Aircraft_Subfolders-Setting.exe into your AITW40/W40 folder.
Run it and change the number of skin subfolders in the corresponding aircraft folders.



EXAMPLE ************

The default HURR (MS-406) folder is :

HURR
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
 
If you add two new skin subfolders to the Hurricane (MS-406) slot :

HURR
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    7
    8

After running Aircraft_Subfolders-Setting.exe, just select the HURR slot by typing 'J' and pressing 'enter'. Then, set the number of skin subfolders to '8'.
