I have no clue what I'm doing, and I'm never careful - I just have backup copies of the file before I yell
"FIRE IN THE HOLE!" and push the plunger.

Seriously, opened it with a hex editor, looks like it would take a couple centuries to even find what controls what in there. Oddly enough there's also a SoundEdit.act file in the root directory, which at least suggests there must be a sound editing program someplace. Gotta wonder why they didn't think of that before adding the U-boat addon for this thing.

It's an extra 10 gigs, but the simplest cure seems to be having two different complete copies of the game, one for Yankee Doodle and the other for Das Boot. Clumsy, but it works.
