[TEC] WARNING: UPlay overwrites mod files without permission

[elanaiba]

One thing to remember that even if the ship models are activated, you will not see them IN THE MUSEUM as they are still disabled in the museum.cfg file.

Do you mean THIS Museum? Well, I know when I see the Ark Royal and I'm looking at her right now...

Did you activate it on Uplay or mod the museum it on another way?

I downloaded SH5 on May 2nd, 2010. Weeks before the launch of patch 1.20. Both Ark Royal and Queen Mary were visible in the Museum and in the Mission Editor right from the start (and without mods).

It's 5 days ago since I downloaded files from UPlay the first time. Because it works for more than 6 month, I can't see how UPlay should be associated with it.

And though I've deactivated each and every mod, the ships are still there.

Seems to be neither the patch 1.20, nor a mod, nor Uplay. Perhaps it's due to the localisation (I own the German version).
Or does your \data\Sea\NCV_Ark_Royal\NCV_Ark_Royal.cfg contain the entry "ShowInRecognitionManual=No" ?

[elanaiba]

Nope!

Bah.... I give up. I'm out of office for 2 weeks so I cant search through the multitude of versions, but ... in the end, its not that important. Good thing the ships are activated.

A final hint. These are the entries for Ark Royal and Queen Mary in my museum.cfg:

[ITEM 79]
ClassName=CVArkRoyalasdf

[ITEM 80]
ClassName=PPQueenMaryasd

Weird names compared to the other units, because the entries don't match the ClassName entries in the data\sea\*.cfg file (trailing "asdf" resp. "asd"). If you rename the entries, these units won't show up in the museum. On the other hand I've got a lot of ships visible in the museum that are not listed in the museum.cfg at all.

Ok, you're right, got enough of this. Who cares? As long as it works...

[elanaiba]

The list only shows the ship that DON'T appear in the museum.

When uplay activates the unit, it also ads some noise ("asdf") to the end of the class name, so it no longer matches the one of the ship.
