Uboat start points are in the Flotillas UPC

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\UPCDataGE\UPCCampaignData

You cannot load the Flotilla file into the mission ed

You will need to create a new mission
Add 3 IXD2 subs each named after the 3 ports

Save in a name you will remember

Open your new file in Notepad

Copy the co ordinates from Flotillas UPC to the ships in the new mis you created

example

[Flotilla 1.Base 1]
ID= F1Penang
NameDisplayable= Penang-Base-Name
Info= Penang-Base-Info
ExternalBaseName= Penang
AvailabilityInterval= 1942-02-29, NULL
DepartureDescription1= ( Long )12044738.000000, ( Lat ) 646218.000000, ( Heading ) 270.000000


[Unit 1]
Name= Penang
Class=SSTypeIXD2
Type=200
Origin=German
Side=2
Commander=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19420426
DeleteOnLastWaypoint=true
DockedShip=true
GameEntryDate=19420426
GameEntryTime=0
GameExitDate=19451231
GameExitTime=0
EvolveFromEntryDate=false
Long=12044738.000000 < Taken from the Flotillas UPC above
Lat=646218.000000 < Taken from the Flotillas UPC above
Height=0.000000
Heading=270.000000 < Taken from the Flotillas UPC above

Do the same for the other 2 bases\ships and save

Now you can go back to Mission ed
Load your mis file with the 3 ships in
Merge - without making savable - and load the Campaign_LOC as I expalined to you previously

Now you can see the placement of the uboats in the docks

When you have moved the uboats in mission ed save the file
Open it again in Notepad and transfer the details back the other way to the Flotillas UPC

Does that make sense ?
Shout if not clear

Hoped there was an easier way but just not seeing one
