Same for the crew problem, I know the mod isn't designed with OM or RFB in mind but if you want a quick fix you can simply include the whole UPCCrewData folder even if you didn't make any change to it from the stock files. The problem of the empty sub is because your sub upc file calls say "Crew-Jr-NCO-Rank-1-Watchman", but in OM or RFB CrewMembers.upc this crewman doesn't exist anymore.

Thanks for the info Mikhayl. I was not aware of the crew problem until this time, and never used OM. Each time that Keltos had a 'major bug' with the subs it turned out to be the UnitParts# that was dupicated because of another MOD, so naturally he suggested that this time.
Not that I would feel it necessary, but wouldn't it be possible to eliminate the unitparts and have the tower be just another piece of "equipment" and loaded 'basically' the same way as a DeckGun? I know I am over simplifying it, there would crewmember slots for a possible addition of a second flak gun to deal with and things similar to that. But there are crewmember slots for both fore and aft deck guns but if you only have one, there are not crewmembers standing where the other gun should be.
Just wondering, and like I said I don't feel there are enough problems at this time to justify the amount of work involved, just curious about your opinion. (or anyones opinion for that matter)
