NGT--
Thanks for the reponse. Yeah, I gathered the .log files didn't do too much. From what I can tell, they are for the museum only and do not have any effect upon gameplay.

The .cfg files for ships, U-boot, and airplanes are fine if the values are bigger than in .sim files.
For example: if the .cfg file says max speed 30 kn and the .sim file says 20 kn, definitely the max speed is 20 kn. But, if the value in .cfg file is 18 kn, perhaps you have only 18 kn max speed.
Is easier to insert high values in .cfg files and forgot them, and after you have only the .sim files to mod as you like.

Interesting information about the relationship between the .cfg and .sim files. However, I noticed that if you alter the .cfg files, the changes will show up in the Recognition manual. So, if you raise the .cfg speed value to a high value, the speed in the recognition manual will reflect the inaccurate higher speed, potentially misleading players. Same for mast height, draft, etc.
Incidentally, I tried removing/renaming the .cfg files of "duplicate" ship entries in the Recognition manual, along with removing the sil.tga files, but the game did not like that very much!
Seems you have to have a .cfg file.
