Hi, I'm sure it's here somewhere on the forum, but I've searched beyond reasonable :hmmm:and cannot find how to give my U-Boat a name it shows U-XX. I'm using the TWOS mod on the game.
Thanks :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

AFAIK only way to do it is to tweak the file playersettings.cfg located in your savegame folder Documents\SH5\Cfg. Replace the UnitName=U-xx with a name of your liking, but backup all your saves before and revert what you do in case the game crashes...:D
With single short words you may succeed (I don't know), if you use multi-words with space or longer words the game will likely CTD...

Sure, but did you check TWoS documentation first? Use Options File Editor to edit your U-boat number and captains name...

Cheers!
