Trying To Gather Modding Tools

Alright. I got the tweaker to work after collecting all the tweaker files I needed. Now, my problem is how do I apply them to the existing dat and zon files? Thanks!

Have a look here, nice tutorial:http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...62&postcount=3

Interesting. According to that link, the files don't need to be converted. We'll see.

Yeah, just as I thought. That tutorial states nothing about applying the tweaked files to the actual zon and dat files within the Silent Hunter directory. I've already done the editing, now I just need to apply the files.

I'm too used to XML where editing is simple Notepad work.

Once you do the work with the mini-tweaker it is automatically applied and creates a back-up of the original.

Ah. That's why it needed the alternate directory. Here I thought that was to stop the annoying popup for SH3. Having worked with so many difficult programs, this is the first one made easy.

Probably helps if I paid more attention. Thanks for the help! Good to see fellow Canucks play this game too.
