Problems with modding the USNIDATAs...

Hi all folks. I am modifying the USNIDATA section of DW to make it matches with the current additions I have made into the database and so be able to scroll, chosse and classify contacts during the gameplay. Unofrtunately, even after repeated checks over the correct formatting of the country "*_TOC.txt" files, links, uploading "*.bat" files etcetera I still can't view nothing of what I've added during gameplay, nor by clicking (in Show Truth mode) onto the desired platform to see her USNIDATA references nor while expleting the normal classification of a contact by opening the USNIDATA classification Panel (with the contact being a new platform of mine) on the Map View.
The strange thing is that if I access to the USNIDATA section from the main menu I can view everything I have added: texts, 3D models, photos...it's during gameplay that I have not any links to the new stuff I've added.

Do someone knows the correct procedure to add and make working new USNIDATAs on DW?

Further: I also have problems with marking new contacts at the sonar station (at the moment I valued this on playable submarines)...they simply aren't picked up even if their signature is perfectly visible in the sonar screens.

By what it could depend? it is linked with the USNIDATA's problem or something else?
