Adding my mod would most certainly replace the german text with English ones. Work with me here and I think we can come up with a solution.
If midnite has a German Menu.txt then I suppose you could use it, I am not sure that he had one, and if he did have one with it, i didn't see it when I put his Mod into mine, and even if it is there I am not so sure that he actually modified it to work with his MOd you would have to ask him.
However assuming I initially understood you correctly that you already have some german version of midnights Mod and don't want an english version overwriting it then Follow these steps.
1. Back up your current files copy them and put then in a safe place
2. extract my Mod in a seperate folder by itself.
3. go to \John Hamm's Uniform Mod V2.2\Data\Menu\ Folder and remove Menu.txt file and the menu_1024_768.cfg file
4. then go to \John Hamm's Uniform Mod V2.2\Data\UPCData\UPCCrewData\ folder and remove the Medals.upc file.
then add what is left of my mod to your game as per normal installation instructions.
Now this will eliminate the chance of any of captain midnites files that are writen in english from re-writing any of your German txt.
files, however all of my MoDs files are in english and by adding those, the names of your ranks in the crew management screen both in port and on ship will show up as english.
If that is still a problem let me know and i could possibly walk you through where that text is located in the files so that you could re-write it yourself in german. Then all the rank text in the game will show up in german (this should have no negative effects on game play if we have to do it that way.)
