How to change out the secondary weapons on your surface ship:

1. Disable any surface ship mods on JSGME

2. Copy and rename the desired ship mod folder to your liking (example change the base folder only USA_Iowa to Super_Iowa, or whatever suits you)

3. Open the ship's .eqp file with notepad (example Snarf_Super_Iowa > Data > Submarine > USA_Iowa > USA_Iowa.eqp)

4. Find each desired weapon to change:

[Equipment 4]
NodeName=S01
LinkName=5in_Double_Base_US
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

Find which weapon you want in Data > Library > ShipParts > guns_radars.dat (open with Silent 3ditor) and copy and paste the weapon name

[Equipment 4]
NodeName=S01
LinkName=6in_Triple_base_US
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

5. repeat with each weapon you want to change out

[Equipment 26]
NodeName=A01
LinkName=40mm_Double_base_US
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

[Equipment 26]
NodeName=A01
LinkName=Mk_15_Phalanx_CIWS_soclu
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19451231

6. If you want to change out every weapon of one type with another, go to edit > replace... (ctrl+H). Copy and paste 40mm_Double_base_US in the top box and Mk_15_Phalanx_CIWS_soclu in the bottom, then click replace all. This will save you from having to do each one individually.

once finished, save this file with your new surface ship only, then load it up with JSGME and enjoy.
