Hi 77, download mandrews txt file, (right click on it and 'save link as'). Then Copy it from your downloads file to your desktop, open it and as you say it’s a txt file. So we need to change that to a bat file. So use the ‘file’ tab and click ‘Save as’, when you're in the ‘save as’ dialogue change the file name. In the file name add “.bat” (you don’t use the speech marks), change the file type to 'All Files' your new file should now should look different like a couple of cogs. Then simply double click that new file on your desktop. It should find your location and then copy in the all new skins.
You can check by going to your skins folder and seeing that both the old files and the new ones with the correct names are there.
Any problems let me know ...
I hope that helps ...
S! Excellent, thanks!

mandrew, I noticed an error in the BAT file
off_Pup_ace_t_RFC-54 1917_Oliver M'Stewpot'_Stewart should read
off_Pup_ace_t_RFC-54 1917_Oliver M 'Stewpot'_Stewart
there is meant to be a space between the M and the ' which is missing in our BAT ...
Hope that helps! Yes it does. Thanks Seb. Corrected file attached. I'm not going to upload the CSV file anymore. I figure anyone who wants to do something better can use the bat file itself as the source of the changes. EDIT -- See later post for updated file.

Without looking at the earlier posts, I assume all I need to do is rename this as a .bat file and run it?

Download the file, remove the .txt from the end of the filename by renaming it, then double click to run. It will open a text window so you can see that the files are being found and copied correctly.

OK, added to the script (attached).
I need to check what's happening; but I was playing a QC flight yesterday. Normally just fly using default skins; but I happened to pull up the skin list and saw several "duplicate" names for the skins that I copy with this script. I'll be doing some experimenting to see if I can figure out what's happening. I wonder if I need to rename the files rather than copy them.

OK. To get the list "correct" in QC, I need to rename the files; but I like capability of running the script multiple times and it works with no error messages. I'll see what I can do with error checks etc. so it skips a file rename if it has already been done. I'll post a new version once I have something that works reliably.

what about backup just the skins that will be renamed to a zip file/folder (or update an existing backup), then execute a command to rename those files. Yeah. I've decided I don't like deleting (or permanently renaming) files. I'm going to copy the originals into a subdirectory (currently named "Original Skin Names") so we can put things right if necessary.
