The extra ammo does work for the deck guns ....... in the mean while going to change some values in the .upc's for the 20mm's and see what happens
Modding extra ammo into the game does work. I tested it before releasing these tweak files.

A few modding secrets when using Mini Tweaker with SH4:

Mini Tweaker default directory is set default for SH3 folders, not SH4. If you don't have SH3 installed, make some fake folder directories like this (for these specific tweak files):

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Library\USSubPa rts (I don't know why a space is showing here in the last word.. sorry)

Ok, now that you have created all of those empty folder directories, copy and paste the correct files you will be modding from SH4 into this SH3 directory.. .which would be:

20mm_Oerlikon_Single.sim
20mm_Oerlikon_Twin.sim
Deck_Gun_3_50.sim
Deck_Gun_4_50.sim
Deck_Gun_5_25.sim
Deck_Gun_12mm_Browning.sim
Deck_Gun_40mm_Single.sim
Deck_Gun_40mm_Twin.sim

Now this is important.. after modding these files with Mini Tweaker, copy and paste the new, changed files from your SH3 Library\USSubParts directory back into your SH4 Library\USSubParts directory. But NEVER leave backup files in your SH4 Library folder. If you do, then the new, modded file will not be recognized by the game, and the changes won't show. I don't know why. That's just the way it is. The reason we have to do it this way is because Mini Tweaker was designed for modding SH3. I hope this helps you understand the way Mini Tweaker works for SH4. If you have any other questions or problems, just ask.
