@Seawolf : you mean -1 right ? (i don't see anywhere -100)
also, i didn't understand what you mean by that ''0= large gun. 1=small''.can you explain it a little further ?
about your rest info (about the ammo 'numbers') ...sure helped me a lot !
thank you very much too for your help


still stands the last question : at .sns file of ixd2 appears that its radar is 'NULL' till the end of war but on the other hand we see at basic.cfg that it is equiped with a radar at 1945 (and earlier.../43 and /44).
in game the sub has indeed a radar so the question is which file is altering the final sensors of players boat ?

anyone knows something about it ???

You're very welcome, glad I could help...

Not sure about the .sns, but hopefully someone will be along with an answer shortly.

Yes so I noticed you must be using a basic file that is different to mine or
has been changed

also, I didn't understand what you mean by that ''0= large gun. 1=small''.can you explain it a little further ?


Sure take a look below

[AMMO_TYPE0];10.5cm SK C/32
Idx=0 {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Large deck gun
Year=1939
Month=1
SS=100
AP=100
HE=1500
Renown=0

[AMMO_TYPE1];8.8cm SK C/35
Idx=1 {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Small deck gun
Year=1939
Month=1
SS=100
AP=100
HE=1500
Renown=0

about your rest info (about the ammo 'numbers') ...sure helped me a lot !
thank you very much too for your help

Wow ok the .sns is the basic set-up of the sub as I understand it. I.E what a sub can or cannot have added to it

However the basic file controls any or all add-ons to the sub.
so if you change the IXD2 listing so that it can appear for use in 1939
(as seen in my battle/gunsub mod) then it will be available at that time
you have to add the earlier start config's to the basic file.

So if the basic file shows that some item is added at a certain time
then it will appear on that years sub.

Again However you must also change the date when any item you want to
add is also available to upgrade or else it can cause problems.

In my game EMEA edition, the -100 is used exclusively for the type XXI, taken from careers.cfg :

SubType=3
SubVersion=0
Z01=15 M01=-100
A01=9
A02=9
S01=-100
S02=-100
S03=-100

from careers_0.cfg :

SubType=-1
SubVersion=-1
Z01=15
M01=-100
A01=9
A02=9
S01=-100
S02=-100
S03=-100

hope this help
