VM made a mod named Mini Surface Campaign v0.85 ( Awesome!  )
Its a career campaign using playable surface ships. In the mod is a Fletcher DD that I love. (yes...I said it). I have added 7 more torp tudes to it, it's not invincible, but it kicks butt!
I wanted to make it a mod in itself but have a problem. It will show up in game but it only has the playable 5" gun mount and also some of the crew are missing.
What I have done is take the Fletcher folder and put it in the new mod's submarine folder and then taken files and folders from the original mod to fill out the needed folders for the new mod.
Looking at the model preview using S3D, all the nodes are there for the other gun mounts and AA mounts.
Does anyone have ideas of what I missed? |
YUP, you missed some of the guns and some of the crew.
'cause it says so right here:

How else do you answer a member named Joker??
You probably missed some files, but with the information given it is hard to tell what. It may link to guns that you don't have, or you don't have the files to make the link. The other guns should be listed by cfg# in the Fletchers.eqp file. Check that. For example an A01 node should be listed in the .dat file nodes and an entry listed in the .eqp file for what gun is at that location.
VM PMed me a while ago, so I have that file and I wll take a quick look. Just from a quick look try adding the
Data/Library/ShipParts
and
Data/Library/USSubParts
and
Data/UPCData/UPCUnitsdata (entire folder)
to your mod and see what happens. He has renamed a LOT of stuff in there, so it may not work with the stock game. It may only work with his mod since he overwrites a LOT of the stuff with his specific files. And the other ships in his mod probably use those new files, but the ones in stock will not.
And just for information: in the future start a new thread with your questions since very few will see it if it is buried inside another thread.
If all else fails, PM the original author. VM.
But let me know how you make out.
