I can't remember any specifics, but have a look in the sub's upc file to see if the upgrade slots for both the fore deck gun and the stern deck gun are available at the time you are trying to fit it.

If that's no use, I'll take a look tomorrow when I'm back at my gaming PC.
Thanks for the answer..I'll check the files again..I can get the 5"/25 to work bow and stern but isnt it more of a AAA cannon?
In my opinion the 5/25 which already has a double set up for it to use, is a better gun. It is a 5" but the 4/50 is a 4" gun. The 25 and 50 are used for the barrel length. Since it is all set up I think you can change the dates, it isn't available until 1944. If changing the dates would work, I would go with the 5"/25mm and then either me or Nisgeis can get the other working (Nisgeis has more knowledge) I just re-read your post , you have the 5/25 working. Keep it, good gun.


@Nisgeis and Clay The 40mmTwin in the weapons (or upgradepack, forget which) is considered a "Deck Gun" so maybe it could be installed if the "Type" was changed to ??

I found it, in the weapons it is considered a "flak" but in upgradepacks it requires a "deckgun slot"

[UpgradePack 11]
ID= Upack40mmTwin
NameDisplayable= Twin 40mm AA Gun
FunctionalType= UpFTypeWeaponFlak
UpgradePackSlotType= USDeckGun
Type=NULL
UnitUpgradePackIntervalOptionCurrent= NULL, NULL, 0
UnitUpgradePackIntervalOptions1= 1944-05-08, NULL, 1000
IDLinkUpgradePackElements= 40mmTwinUS

Are you sure you don't want a 16" Triple turret?:rotfl:.
As always thanks Peabody...... And all the rest of you also.. Well then I'll just use the 5"/25 if you think its beter...And I'll try again for the twin 40MM....HMMMM 16" triple!!!!!!!!!.........
