I would like to add these ships to my game, but I'm also using OLC's Modified Searchlight Beams for GWX3 which contains a modified Search_Lights.dat... which would get overwritten by the one in this mod.

I really, really, really don't want to go back to the blinding, OMG MY EYES searchlights I had before getting OLC's mod. Does the Search_Lights.dat included here make any similar adjustment to the searchlight beams, or if not, is there some way to alter some of the settings using's OLC's file as a reference? I've tried comparing the two files, and I know where OLC's file differs from the unmodded GWX version... but the nodes or whatever you call 'em in this new version don't exactly match up line by line so it's not like I can just go in and find the same bits and put in OLC's values, even if that would work.

So...er... HALP!?!?!
