MM I cant get the tower change for the Gato to work...I believe these are your instructions...

here it is for gato as an example go to
C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific\Data\UPCData\UPCUnitsData
Make a back up copy of the file somewhere if your going to
alter it.
open the file called
UnitParts1Gato
here you will see a long text file at the top you will see
this
[UnitPart 1]
ID= GatoConningEarlyWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= Start of war Conning Tower
UnitPartInterval=NULL, 1942-12-01
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_01
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T01.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_01.tga
this is the first conning tower the sub uses in the war
and it is available from the begining up to dec 1 1942
UnitPartInterval=NULL, 1942-12-01
change the available to date to 1941
like this
NULL, 1941-12-01
next further down the page locate.

[UnitPart 2]
ID= GatoConningMedWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= The aft bridge deck fairwater was removed to reduce silhouette
UnitPartInterval=1942-06-01, 1944-12-01
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_02
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T01.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_02.tga

Repeat the procedure change date on the second conning
tower to this
NULL, 1941-12-01

Further down the page still locate the third conning tower
[UnitPart 3]
ID= GatoConningLateWar
Type= GatoConningTower ;Can only placed on unit parts slot of this type
NameDisplayable= The bridge fairwater was completely cut down to reduce surfaced silhouette
UnitPartInterval=1942-12-01, NULL
ExternalLinkName3D= data/objects/Conning_Gato_03
HullTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_T02.tga
HullLightmapTextureNameOverride=data/Submarine/NSS_Gato/NSS_Gato_O01.tga
HullNormalmapTextureNameOverride= NULL
MenuSilhouetteTextureNameOverride= Gato_Class_03.tga

here change the date to
NULL, NULL and the tower will
be the only one available during the war.
your going to have to wait a day on the
tutorial for the guns though.
