[REL] Merchant Fleet Mod for Silent Hunter 3

I edited the val files to include spawning of Life Boats and did a test, worked fine, the ship I tested was the M30B, it took 4 torpedoes to sink it but I noticed that there was no torpedo damage, the hulls were unmarked, anyone confirm this and have any ideas what the problem may be?

Edit: I replaced the Expl_mask01_a.tga file and the damage is now shown, for some reason the stock 1.4b one doesn't show!

If you torpedo a ship in the area where the country name is printed, the damage will not show. It is a flaw with the SH3's liberty ship lower deckhouse (which was used to create the name panels) - apparently, that part of the ship does not show visible damage.
