Stupid question time (SH3C)

Scout614 · 03-01-15, 11:52 PM

Since I appearantly cannot use a specific term for the search function, what is the SH3 Commander file that assigns names to ships when sunk?
I want to add about 160 names for the armed trawlers for a bit more realism.
thanks for dealing with my failure to use the search correctly.

Cfg/Ship Names.

Open that file and you'll see how it is structured and how to add names.

Before you start you might want to take a look at my Ship Names mod. I spent years adding to and correcting the merchant names, especially with IABL's Merchant Fleet Mod in mind. That said, I have included warship names supplied by others. If the armed trawlers don't already have the names you want to add, once you have them done I can slip them into the next edition of Ship Names.

Of course I can also help you with any questions you might have.

Hey Steve,
with your ship names mod just as a heads up as i was going through it Royal Navy trawlers had the designation HMT and not HMS like your file has em. good job on the names

I didn't create the categories and I didn't do the names for those.

That said, now that you've told me I might go back and change them all.
