How to remove Recognition Manual listings

Hi there, I was wondering how you remove the listing of a ship from the recognition manual. I already know how to remove the pictures/photos of the ship by deleting the .sil file from each ship's 'sea' folder but the name and stats like mast height, draft etc are still there so there must be another file in each ships folder inside the main sea folder that controls that name listing. If anyone could tell me which one it is would be much appreciated. I want to remove things like small junk, fishing boats etc (basically ships that are too small that I wouldn't fire a torpedo)

Aren't those listed in the 'Names' files (English, French, GermanNames.cfg) in the Sea folder? Such as:

;Silent Hunter 3
BBBismarck=Bismarck Battleship
BBKingGeorgeV=King George V Battleship
BBNelson=Nelson Battleship
...
FFBlackSwan=Black Swan Frigate
FishingBoat=Fishing Boat
FishingBoat1=Small Coastal Vessel
FishingBoat2=Trawler
...

I am not 100% certain of that, not having noodled in SH3 modding for quite some time. I also am not certain it will do what you want... The use of a mini-mod is called for here... lol :salute:

You will have to edit each file shipname.cfg accordingly.

Yeah that's what I thought and I removed those entries from the Englishnames.cfg in 'Sea' folder along with the sils from each of their folders in main 'Sea' folder but the names still show up in RM so i'm thinking it's another file in each of the folders within the main 'Sea' folder, I just don't know which one. Not only do I have to delete the sil files but something else in those folders - perhaps eng.log files? I already know .eqp files got nothing to do with that, I guess delete one at a time and eliminate the possibilities if no one knows.

you mean edit this file https://i.gyazo.com/38aba7d79d7d25c0...d94bc61c29.png and remove the appearance date of the ship?

It might even me the _shp.tga file in each of those ship folders in main 'Sea' folder that affects it maybe?
