yes it is possible to make a Jap ship playable in capmaign or single missions.
There are different files whcih need modifying in [data.upcdatage] rather than [data.upcdat] for US / allied ships. Same filenames, different directories.
Oh and you also need the UBoat add on to be able to play non allied ships / subs.
It might be worth pulling together this interest plus the work Karl is doing into a concerted effort to complete the TSWSM. I have revived my work (damn hard - had forgotten so much) ..... this invlolves around 35 playable ships (both allied & axis) and is based as an add on to the Ops Monsoon mod - so I didn't have to re-create all the campaign data for European theatre of operations.
Anyone interested in beta testing and contributing, please see the TSWSM thread.
