I.e, sub files needed:
- the four turm7a files from the object folder.
- the sstypeviia.cfg file from the roster/german/submarine folder.
- the NSS_Type7a folder from the submarine folder.

Copy this entry from the NYGM .rnd file and put on whatever convoy(s) you want with the "XX" being the correct numbers for the .rnd file being used. If you don't have these correct, the game will ctd.
I.e., if you placed them in RndGroup 1 (just an example) and the last unit in RndGroup 1 is RndUnit 10 you'd number this entry below [RndGroup 1. RndUnit 11]. If you place them elsewhere in a convoy, just renumber all following units accordingly.

[RndGroup XX.RndUnit XX]
Class=SSTypeVIIA
Type=200
Origin=German
Side=0
CargoExt=-1
CargoInt=-1
CfgDate=19390801
No=1
Escort=false
SpawnProbability=50
crewrating=4
Thank you for sharing. I might go in a add a few more for myself.

Good hunting,

It's something to see when you come across a convoy with it.

I believe, I could hibridate nygm and Russian version of gwc3, I'm not sure why I have so much problem with file from original old mod (soup of fixes) and can run the black Sea and penang camping with nygm subs positive sensors and Ai.

Side not, some nygm old player, someone knows why the mod never add model for viic42, is because is to similar to 41 version or there's other reason,I need her ask steibler about it...

Don't know, but maybe because the VIIC42 was never even built let alone sailed/saw service.

From Uboat.net on the VII/42 :

The VIIC/42 was designed 1942-1943 and was intended to replace the then retreating VIIC, she had a much stronger pressure hull (with plating thickness up to 28mm) and a bit better offensive punch (16 torpedoes against VIIC's 14). Her diving depth was designed to be 200 meters with 400 meters as crushing depth (VIIC figures: 100/200 meters).
These boats would have been very similar in external appearance to the VIIC/41 but with two periscopes in the tower as type IX.
All contracts for the VIIC/42 U-boats were cancelled on 30 September 1943 in favour of the new Elektro Boat XXI.
