Question help with a script that replaces all images in a certain folder with a different images
Hi, I've been trying to find a script that works for this, and everything I've tried hasn't worked yet. I've tried a couple things from google searches (this and this were the two sources I used) and neither of them work and I have NO CLUE how to edit it so it works for me. so i figured I might as well ask in here because I am not a coding expert by any means :-(
Basically I am just looking for help on creating a script that would essentially replace all files in the folder ExampleName with ExamplePng.png . sorry if this is a really simple thing to do I just don't feel like manually moving liek 4047130 pngs (this is for a game mod for context), like I said I'm level 1 noob at code and have no clue what I'm doing so I'd really appreciate any help, thank you!!!!!

Replacing stuff is always risky, make sure you are taking backups first
this is not a very good example, ti looks like you are saying, if i have a folder called
folder 1with 100 files in it, replace all those files with 1 file calledfolder 1.pnglayout your folder structure (source and destination), layout the file structure, give actual examples
it would seem odd a mod require this level of replacement, maybe a total conversion ? I dunno it's been a while, but probably the game and the mod would be useful info to have
