[REL] SH4 Randomizer 1.3
« on: September 01, 2011, 11:15:57 PM »
   This program will allow you to randomly change several items in the game. You can replace the following:

The background image when the game loads.
The Captain's desk photo in the office.
The pinup and photographs inside the submarine.
The chronograph (watch) used in the sub.
The pinup and three ship identification posters in the office.
The view out the office windows.

   It can also randomly rename the files in the "Gramophone" folder, so they won't play in the same order all the time. Please note the files will be renamed using random numbers only, and renaming cannot be undone. Because of the way this portion of the program works, you cannot have more than 32,767 files in the "Gramophone" folder.

   This mod will also install the six folders you will need for the images. "Background Images" for the loading screen, "Desk Photos" for the desk image, "Sub Pinup and Pics" for the pinup and photographs inside the submarine, "Chronograph" for the chronograph (watch) used in the sub, "Office Posters" for the pinup and three ship identification posters in the office, and "Office Window" for view out the office windows.

   To install, just extract directly into your "Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific" folder. If for some reason you've renamed those folders, or don't use the “Ubisoft” folder, just make sure to extract to the same folder that the sh4.exe program is in. After extracting, go to where you extracted, right-click on the SH4 Randomizer.exe, and select "Create shortcut." Then drag the shortcut to either your desktop or to the "Start" button, and drop where you want. When running the program, follow the onscreen instructions to make your desired changes, then you can start the game from the program as well.

   To use with my Sub Images mod, just extract it to the same location as the SH4 Randomizer program as it has the proper folder structure already in it. To use with any other mod, extract them directly into the required folder. Note that there is no limit to the number of images you can use, but the more you have, the longer the program may take to run.

   This update adds the change "Chronograph" function and folder.

   This program were originally written as a .bat file. It was converted using the Bat To Exe Converter (http://www.f2ko.de/).
