Default I wanna start over...

Can anyone tell me how to start a campaign over? Ive been playing and i have like 300,000 tons or more sunk, and thats just embarassing :P

Not to mention the VIIC in 1939, id like a fresh start.

How do i force-unlock "Happy times" as a career start point, and i want to begin with a VIIB. Can anyone make a campaign file or tell me what i need to edit to make that happen?

If i hear "Wake up, captain wants to see you" again, my ears will bleed.

Well, you can skip the Invasion of Poland tutorial next career, but you'll lose out on the renown you don't need.

Other than changing campaign progress files I don't think you can start in Happy Times though, nor with a VIIB. If you edited files I'm sure you could, but I'm not sure which ones to edit. Haven't even seen a released VIIB upgrade mod yet.

Im happy to edit files, i really dont wanna start over from the beginning of the war, but seriously ive already broken the game with crew upgrades i cant undo (And didnt know at the time they broke the game). Im happy to edit text files.

HELP! I just wanna start in mid 1940 with a VIIB. VIIA is so ugly and "Coastal shipping" is so boring

I think once you've unlocked a campaign, you can use it as a start point in your next career.

That's what I thought mookiemookie.
But I have read a couple of posts here where people have stated that when starting a new campaign you have to begin on Total Germany (despite having unlocked other options).

I would like a definitive answer on this.

You do know that the VIIA, VIIB, and VIIC all use the same model in SH5, right (the oly difference beig the presence of the wire-cutter)?

I know, sort of off-putting.

I think the Type VIIA models the external torpedo tube.
