Going to try LSH2015 when my new PC arrives

[K-61]

I'm going through the campaign.scr file now; that thing is as big as the state of Texas! As I have no clue where it is I am going through it from top to bottom, line by line. My eyes are burning and I'm not even one quarter the way through yet. As I do not know the exact search terms to use this will be a long and tedious chore. I've tried looking for "u-tanker" but no luck.

You have to use the u-tanker's # or the supply ship name in the search.

1. Just double click on the file and it should open with notepad, etc.

2. Choose the "edit" function.

3. Choose the "find" function. Type in boat name desired here; i.e., u-461 or Vessel, etc.
The find function will take you right to it then.

My problem is I don't know the names of the ships or the U-tankers, without loading up the game at various times and making notes of all the names.

If/when I find them I will write them all down and post them so others don't have to go through the same slog.

Go to your game's main install folder.

There, go to data/menu folder. In there is a file called en_help.txt or similar.
Open it up and you'll see the supply section with all the ship names. This is what the F1 key shows in the game.

Thanks.

Had a look, twice, in the menu folder at the two files. No mention there of supply ships or tankers.

I'm going to load my game, check the F1 file and then make notes, come back and try again. Thanks for your assistance, John.

Do you recall seeing them listed with the F1 key in game ? Oops, you posted before I did. Anytime ! Let me know how it goes.
