I am not sure I am following you here... In GR2 Editor's terminology, a subset is a portion of a 3D object using a certain material. The editor lets you to import objects with as many subsets as you want

I know what you mean. Sometimes the editor is even more strict than the game itself in deciding what is a broken file and what not.
Have you tried adding all the needed subsets manually, before you import the new mesh?
Have you tried loading the 'broken' file in some of the older versions of the Editor. They are often more tolerant that the latest versions, and they open a widest range of gr2 files, even the ones not supported or discarded as broken by the last version.

without the deck it re-loads in the editor all the time.

This is where I get lost: subsets are by definition part of the same object/mesh. It makes me think that you are actuallu talking about separate meshes. If that's the case, try importing the new meshes one by one, until you find the one that makes the file broken for GR2E

just a few bones in the hull to move, and the torp doors to sort out and the hull work is done. still waiting for permission to use the models for sh5, so it may be all just a learning curve anyway.

Sounds promising. I really hope that you will sort all the problems, get permissions and release your work
