Is this safe to use? Basically all I need to do then is select a save campaign and alter it?

Does this allow me to change submarines also? Or if I start a new campaign with a Type VIIA I can end up in 1943 with one too?

Yes, it only changes your active campaign, without altering dates and any other stuff.

Not yet. I'm now working on full-featured SH5 save editor, though.

Sounds good for mods testing purposes.

Thanks

Edit: ouch if it doesn't alter dates, it is actually useless because severals AI scripts triggers are using dates.

Thanks

Sounds good to me

I'll add the option to change dates in the next version.

As promised, I added the option to change current player date to the start of new campaign. Download link is in the first post.

Enjoy.

Figured you updated it in the d\l section, I got it there

Couple problems,

For one, no equipment becomes available in may 1943.. game still thinks its 1939

Also, I didnt get any objectives after seeing my Fleet Officer Briefing in Black May..

Wondering if this has to do with post #4 which has since been fixed.

Works good, nice addition.

Sledgehammer427 · 05-01-10, 10:17 PM

very nice!

too bad I don't have any other campiagns open but happy times

I am getting tired of my VIIA, and I am thinking of a way I can get into a VIIC without having to find out how

is this something you plan on including in your save editor?

I'm in the middle of Western Approaches, but am running short of time.

Since you need "major victory" in said campaign to get Operation Drumbeat, I was wondering...Will this allow one to "unlock" Op. Drumbeat?
