I'm experimenting with a new sub (Project 627A November class) I got from a Russian forum and it's already been put in all of the single missions, but I want to put it into career and I'm having difficulty finding the files, or parts within files, that need to be modified.

I've found the CareerStart.upc, but all the subs therein have names that don't correspond with anything else I've seen, e.g. F1Balao, F2Sargo, etc. How do these names point to the individual submarine files?

Click the word tutorial under my siggy flag Jack its all there.

F1Narwahl, 2

indicates that Flotilla one (F1) has two Narwahl class boats
available for that flotilla in the month and location your
looking at. the digit after the comma is how many boats.

Date and Location are elsewhere in the entry your looking at.

Instruction for insert soviet submarine project 627A (NATO name - November) (from autor Dagon):
I receive instruction for insert submarine in compaign for translate from russian and place there:
"Open UPCCampaignData, find files CareerStart and Flotillas and think where you can wish it boat. For example Pearl Harbor flotilla.
Scrolling for describing what is submarine in flotillia and write after last:
[Flotilla 1.UserPlayerUnitType хх] - where xx is number submarine in flotillia
ID= F1627A
NameDisplayable=проект 627А (or project 627A instead russian)
AvailabilityInterval= 1939-08-01, NULL
IDLinkUserPlayerUnitType= 627A
UnitTypeCommonality= 1
IDFlotillaLinkTransferTo= NULL

Saving and open UPCCampaignData. In this file write after last boats with letter "," F1627A, 1.
Submarine can insert in various flotillias. Letter F is describe as flotillia and number 5 (for example) meane that it was 5 flotillia.

Write in carrier start files:
IDLinkUserPlayerUnits= F1Porpoise, 4, F1Tambor, 5, F1Gar, 4, F1627A, 1
