well the germans have radar too, just start a campaign in 43 or later and youll have radar.
The German radar isn't any better or worse than the US.

If you really want US radar instead of German radar, it's gonna be a tough job cause you'd have to edit quite a number of different files.

tog ietsje makkelijker bij nader inzien;)

1. - open data\upcdata\upcunitsdata\equipment.upc and search for the radar you want on your u-boat
e.g.:

Code:

[Equipment 29]

ID=SDRadarAntennaLate

[...]

ExternalLinkName3D= NSS_LateSD

[...]

now copy the external link name.

2. - open data\upcdatage\upcunitsdata\equipment.upc, find the radar you want to replace and replace its external link name with the one you just copied. It will still have the same name as before, but all specifications and 3d models will be the US ones.

That's all:)

If you want to change the display, that's not enough though. In that case you'll have to change the entire sub interior: open data\submarine\subname\subname.cfg and change the "Interior=*****" line into: Interior=data/Interior/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato

Ik hoop dat dit een beetje helpt, ander post je nog maar es met wat preciezere info over wat je wil veranderen, of stuur anders maar een PM:up:

No Radar on the Tench?

I installed the Tench class sub mod, but, the radar does not work on the surface. It is based on the internal config for the Gato.

Is there a setting in a config file someplace that I could change to enable the surface radars?

I am using TMO and RSRD (TMO version)
