Cheers Col..i did try adding the brit type 7 as a unique sub. i renamed the data/submarine/NSS_UboatVIIB folder
to NSS_UboatVIIB2

and added it to the english.cfg file list

and renamed all of the files in the new folder like wise ..renamed the new cfg file and entrys in the roster section and mission file but..came a cropper when running the mission as the type VIIB2 wasn't on the list of subs in the mission selection screen so it wasn't available..

needs adding to the menu list not sure which file to look at for that most probably it's a DAT file in the library folder

which takes it out of my reach as far as editing...

the idea being to create a unique sub type that can be used for non german missions and can be modded without affecting the stock subs..

the whole planet seems to be modelled in the campaign engine so there's really no limit to the scope on pacific campaigns etc..just the model file stuff ...as you say summat must have changed the UBI guys minds on releasing the model file editor...dang that secret squiril stuff!!!

i've edited the roster cfg for the brit sub to this using accurate british sub names instead of the normal U-535 stuff..dunno wether it will accept them or not tho

(if it does it will appear on radio messages etc)
