MM I cant get the tower change for the Gato to work...I believe these are your instructions...

here it is for gato as an example go to
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\UPCData\UPCUnitsData
Make a back up copy of the file somewhere if your going to
alter it.
open the file called
UnitParts1Gato
here you will see a long text file at the top you will see
this
[UnitPart 1]
ID= GatoConningEarlyWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= Start of war Conning Tower
UnitPartInterval=NULL, 1942-12-01
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_01
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T01.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_01.tga
this is the first conning tower the sub uses in the war
and it is available from the begining up to dec 1 1942
UnitPartInterval=NULL, 1942-12-01
change the available to date to 1941
like this
NULL, 1941-12-01
next further down the page locate.

[UnitPart 2]
ID= GatoConningMedWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= The aft bridge deck fairwater was removed to reduce silhouette
UnitPartInterval=1942-06-01, 1944-12-01
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_02
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T01.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_02.tga

Repeat the procedure change date on the second conning
tower to this
NULL, 1941-12-01

Further down the page still locate the third conning tower
[UnitPart 3]
ID= GatoConningLateWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= The bridge fairwater was completely cut down to reduce surfaced silhouette
UnitPartInterval=1942-12-01, NULL
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_03
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T02.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_03.tga

here change the date to
NULL, NULL and the tower will
be the only one available during the war.
your going to have to wait a day on the
tutorial for the guns though.

Can you tell me in simple terms what I'm doing wrong or fix the sections for me so I can cut and paste...Also the other day I did the deck gun upgrade stern&bow and a daul 40mm AAA gun.When I tried to fire the AAA gun the game crashed.....Any ideas..Sorry to bother you again....

Clay if your after the third conning tower
then just change the dates on conning
1 and conning 2 to something like

19991201 to 19991231
or something

make the third tower available from
whatever 1939 or 1941 whatever
and put the finish after the end of the
war and its yours for the whole war.

let me know if you have further problems
