Yes, please elaborate more. I can't figure out what you're trying to say/do either.

I guess you dont want to give much away so

Use the cfg off the ship you originally cloned
Make sure the class name inside matches the one in the ships folder cfg
Also make sure the cfg itself is named the same
Depending on what the ship is - merchant\coastal etc - you will need to alter the type= in both cfgs

101 is tanker
102 is merchant etc

Full list in C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Roster EnglishNames.cfg

oh, sorry, what I mean is the cfg file that goes into the roster folder for each country, the cfg that says this country has this ship. like what you would find at data/roster/sea those are the cfg's i need help with.

Thanks!

PS-I will try to do what you suggested BBW, also, how do I know if I cloned right with Pack 3d?

are you trying to add different ships to different nations like say giving canada a few revenge class BB's that sort of thing if so just go to the country that has the ship you want in roster cfg and copy the ship file out of the sea folder then move to the nation you want in the roster folder and paste it into the Sea folder of the nation you want it in. its really that simple but in this case the names wont change you need to add names or change them with a text editer if you need that.

If you renamed all the files in the folder then opened the dat with Pack3d and cloned it should b fine

Yes I meant the roster cfgs

Example

Sea folder

Folder name = NF_boat_2
Cfg name = NF_boat_2

ClassName=FishingBoat2
UnitType=104 <---Coastal Vessel
MaxSpeed=12
Length=26,5
Width=7,1
Mast=13,2
Draft=2.70

RenownAwarded=20

Roster\Country\Sea Folder

Cfg name= FishingBoat2 ( note its the same as the class name )

[UnitClass]
ClassName=FishingBoat2
UnitType=104 <---Coastal Vessel
AppearanceDate=19380101
DisappearanceDate=19451201
DisplayName=Small Trawler

[Unit 1]
