Default Missing equipment.

While playing FOTRS I have noticed that son a few of the IJN DD's the turrets and torp launchers are missing. The Hatsuharu and Akatsuki.
I have looked through the .DAT and EQP files and haven't noticed anything but then again I am no expert. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

I'd look in Data/Libaray/ship parts/ sub parts,, of the downloaded ship and in the main game folder

Default Think I found it.

I noticed that in the Equip CFG the link name had Jp2 instead of Jp. I think that was the culprit. We will see.

I have taken some of the ships from v2 and put them in v1.3. I noticed that the destroyers equip cfg all have jp2 in the link name for the 5in turrets and I think that is why they werent showing up.

I copied the ships I wanted from v2's sea folder to v1.3's sea folder. I then made sure they were in the proper roster folder and it worked. I only did Japanese ships though. And they only show up randomly but I run into them pretty regularly. However when I was up against certain DD's I noticed that the turrets weren't rendering in game and thats when I noticed the whole JP2 thing in the link name. You also have to add them to the names file in the roster folder. I hope this helps you. I know it isnt perfect but I'm no modder.

Many thanks. Yes that's the procedure I used and all SH3 and OM ships work. I tried only with American warships and I have CTDs in the museum. Ever. I am missing some files (eqp or jp etc) but I can't identify these files for each ship...I will try this next weekend with Japanese merchants.

Best regards.

I never go to the museum. I always crash when I try that. I also have problems with the Japanese section of the rec manual. When I get to a certain point the game crashes. Its always around the lower end escorts. But hey, who cares, I'd rather have the extra ships working in game then worry about the rec manual working perfectly. Its only with the Jpapnese section and not the merchant section.
