Even if there was a file called uboatskin.tga, you still have to change it, run the
game and see if the skin has changed. All such activity is reverse engineering.

Of course, there will never be any complaints from the copyright owners because
almost all modding is good for business. Same applies to the modding under
discussion here.

Back on topic:

I had a go at editing some of the .DLL a while ago. I got results, but not the
ones I wanted.
