What you're looking for is in the Localization.tsr You may have to create the entries yourself. Edit the file using notepad.

That file is ONLY for the torpedoes. For guns he needs the UpgradePacks.upc file I pointed to.

*update* I am going to add in some miniaturized versions of the big guns, as well as a couple modern guns (such as the mark 45 5")

How do you make a mini 18-inch triple barrel turret?

Open the 3d model, shrink it by 1/2, import it back into the file, bada bing bada boom (pun intended). Then I will just re-map the shells to the closest size available shell.

My next challenge, I realized, I'm going to have to make new texture files for all my guns or figure out how to re-map the texture file back to the correct texture file, or create a new one altogether.

Default Honey, I've shrunk the Yamato!

Well here it is my first miniaturized turret (still huge though). I need to create a texture file for it and a skin.
