No, what I said, " The CareerStart.upc is only one of many files that need to be 'fixed'."

Edit: In your post you stated the MOD has a "CareerStart.upc"? Then you need to add the new ships, then fix all the other files that get overwritten.
From you other post in another thread you said:

All those files would need to be fixed also.

Flotillas.upc has the ships and missions
UpgradePacks.upc has all weapons, ammo, equipment that is upgraded/changed throughout the career.
Weapons.upc has all the Weapons that are different.

You also may have to copy files from the Library, which are usually the items reffered to in the Weapons.upc.
And the Roster file would assign the ship to a country.

So not eveything that needs to be 'fixed' is in the list of stuff that is overwritten, some is just added, so you don't get a warning.

So there is a lot more to it than just adding a ship name and it's done.
