This is because the Ship Names Classes were created long before IABL added them in. In fact I had a major nightmare several years ago because he had sent me a preliminary copy that I worked from for a long time, and then when he released the latest version they were all changed around, so I had to start over almost from scratch.

1. A ship class only has to be listed on the [CLASSMAP] if it needs to be connected to a different class. The name I have listed for, say, M01B are the names of real ships that look like that model, or close to it. If someone creates a new class it either needs to be connected to a different class in [CLASSMAP] or names need to be applied to it, which I'm always glad to do once the class is inserted into the game.

2. This includes the 'X' classes. They can be mapped to M40X can be mapped to M40A or M40B, or to GenericMerchantsAndTankers (but not for long, as I'm struggling to eliminate that category altogether). Ideally it shouldn't matter, because you shouldn't be sinking neutral ships.
So... the [CLASSMAP] is only there to make Commander choose names for one class of ship from the list given for a different class of ship, when the first class of ship doesn't have its own dedicated list? For instance, if class AAA so closely resembles the ships listed for class BBB that there is no need for it to have a separate list, then in the [CLASSMAP] you put AAA=BBB and whenever you sink an AAA ship Commander just pulls one of the names from the list for BBB.

If there's a list of names given for a class, there's no need to have a [CLASSMAP] entry for it. If it has no dedicated list of its own, an entry in [CLASSMAP] will tell Commander which existing list to use for it. Am I understanding it correctly?

What definitely will happen is that all the thousands of names Commander gives to ships will be lost. You will only get the 600-or-so names that are on the Generic list.

What are your computer stats? I can't use the mod for the simple reason that my PC can't handle all the extra ships.

Exactly so. The [CLASSMAP] is only there to reroute names for classes that don't have any.

Thanks. That seemed to be the most sensible explanation just from looking at the file, good to know for sure.

The names are already in the ShipNames.cfg file, listed by Class below the [CLASSMAP].

If there is a list of names there for a ship class, you do NOT need an entry in the [CLASSMAP] in order for Commander to assign names to ships of that class when you sink them. Commander will do so automatically if you have selected the Real Ship Names option and updated your Personnel File after completing a patrol and before opening the patrol log.

If there is NOT a list of names there for a particular class, but there IS an entry in the [CLASSMAP] for that class which maps it to another class that does have a list of names provided for it, then when you sink a ship of that class Commander will use a name from the list the class was mapped to in [CLASSMAP].

The ONLY time you need to add an entry to the [CLASSMAP] is when a class does not have a dedicated list of names in the .cfg file, and does not already have an entry in the [CLASSMAP] mapping it to a class that does.

For instance, if Steve has listed 600 ship names in a section for class M01A, and you put "M01A=GenericMerchantsAndTankers" in the [CLASSMAP], every time you sink a ship of that class Commander is going to use only the list of names under GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead of using the list already provided for M01A. You have essentially taken all those names out of the running by directing Commander NOT to use them but to use the names for GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead.

That's non right imho

There is no list already provided for M01A in the Ship Names cfg....that's why I put "M01A=GenericMerchantsAndTankers" in the [CLASSMAP]

Otherwise SH3Commander doesn't recognize M01A, as I realized when I sunk MFM merchants and I got M01A with no info in the patrol log

Um, yeah, there kinda is:

[M01A]
CrewRange=35|80
CargoTyp=1,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9 ,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25
0001=SS Abangarez
0002=SS African Monarch
0003=SS African Prince
0004=SS African Sea
0005=SS Agwidale
0006=SS American
0007=SS American Fisher
0008=SS American Oriole
0009=SS American Robin
0010=SS Aneroid
0011=SS Ann Skakel
0012=SS Barroso
0013=SS Bonita
0014=SS Brandywine
0015=SS Bushranger
0016=SS Cartago
0017=SS Cavalcade
0018=SS Chattanooga City
0019=SS Commandante Pessoa
0020=SS Doņa Aniceta
0021=SS Doņa Nati
0022=SS Emilia
0023=SS Ensley City
0024=SS Exchester
0025=SS Exilona
0026=SS Heredia
0027=SS Jean
0028=SS Kahaku
0029=SS Kaimoku
0030=SS Kainalu
0031=SS Kaipara
0032=SS Midosi
0033=SS Mobile City
0034=SS Montanan
0035=SS Munaires
0036=SS Mundelta
0037=SS Munindies
0038=SS North King
0039=SS Patricia Skakel
0040=SS Rosemont
0041=SS Santa Marta
0042=SS Tivives
0043=SS Torres
0044=SS Turrialba
0045=SS Typhoon
0046=SS Yarmouth
0047=SS Zacapa
0048=SS Zarembo

However, if you have mapped that class to the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers in [CLASSMAP], Commander will not bother to use the names provided specifically for class M01A. It will use a name from the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead because that's what you told it to do. And it will do the same thing for every other class that you entered in the [CLASSMAP] that way, no matter how many names are listed for each of those classes in the sections below it. Commander will ignore all the names provided specifically for AK01A, AK02A, AK03A, and so on, and you will only see names from the GenericMerchantsAndTankers list every single time.

That is what Steve meant when he said you would lose all the names provided for those classes. You are telling Commander to ignore those lists and use only the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead.

If the Shipnames.cfg you are using does not have lists for M01A, AK01A, etc., then you are not using the most recent version of the file. Steve updates it on a regular basis, the current version (I believe) is the August 2010 update. If you search in this forum for 'Ship Names' you will find a thread about it - if you search in the Downloads section you will find the file itself available for download.

However, if you have mapped that class to the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers in [CLASSMAP], Commander will not bother to use the names provided specifically for class M01A. It will use a name from the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead because that's what you told it to do. And it will do the same thing for every other class that you entered in the [CLASSMAP] that way, no matter how many names are listed for each of those classes in the sections below it. Commander will ignore all the names provided specifically for AK01A, AK02A, AK03A, and so on, and you will only see names from the GenericMerchantsAndTankers list every single time.

That is what Steve meant when he said you would lose all the names provided for those classes. You are telling Commander to ignore those lists and use only the list for GenericMerchantsAndTankers instead.

If the Shipnames.cfg you are using does not have lists for M01A, AK01A, etc., then you are not using the most recent version of the file. Steve updates it on a regular basis, the current version (I believe) is the August 2010 update. If you search in this forum for 'Ship Names' you will find a thread about it - if you search in the Downloads section you will find the file itself available for download.

I just downloaded it from there and unzipped it again, and that's the file I copied that M01A list from. There should be a total of 11000+ ship names on there, and as Steve as already mentioned IABL's ships from the MFM are most definitely on it (except for the neutrals).

If you've got all the ship names from Shipnames.cfg and use the Real Ship Names option in Commander, I don't think the "generic" quality of the display names will make any difference to the logs you end up with... Commander is going to give you real ship names anyway in that case.
