Canadian Subs?

CaptainCanuck · 09-03-17, 01:03 PM

I was wondering if there was or if someone could make a mod that features the Canadian subs; the Victoria class (Upholders with Mk 48s and CANTASS) and the old O-boats? I know the basis of these are featured in another mod but I don't know much about modding. Dunno how hard it would be....any navigational input would be appreciated!

Edit: Not sure what, if any, the changes were to the Oberons when they were taken by the RCN, but my game crashes when I try to use them in the 1968 campaign.

As a Canadian, I of course modded my Upholders to be Victoria class, and Oberons to Canadian ship names.

In the vessel text file for the Oberon and Upholders, you can change their weapons and sensors to match what us Canucks have.

In the languages file, forget where it is, you can adjust all the ship names so instead of an Upholder name, it is HMCS Corner Brook, for example.

Thanks for the tips. Got the names all good (the language file is in the override folder if anyone else is wondering).

I have the upholders using the mk48s but I can't seem to reload the tubes...I assume it was a tube-size or other compatability issue but the files say the tubes are the same size as the LA class. I'm not sure how to fix this issue.

edit: Figured it out, it was just a formatting problem with how I put in the weapons.
