Any Way To Change Sub Name
Does any one know how to change a sub name in SH-4 ver 1.4 or ver 1.5 during a campaign? I found a mod that will allow you to change the capt's name but not for the submarine.

Quick and dirty: In \Documents\SH4\data\cfg\SaveGames\ find the save game you wish to edit and open "ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc" with Notepad. [UserPlayerUnit 1] ID=Gato NameDisplayable=Gato UnitName=USS Drum <<<--- re-name the sub here, USS Peto (SS-265) or whatever. UpgradeClass= There are four upc files you need to edit for an exsisting career: Open them with Notepad. Find your boats name, then change it to what you want. Careertrack.upc Another is ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc Inside a folder named UPCInitial you'll find files with the same names, change these too. also another way from Berry Quote:

Any Way To Change Sub Name
Thanks a lot for your help on how to rename a sub aanker and Berry.
I knew there had to be a way but I just couldn't figure it out, but then I never thought of going into the active userplayerunits.upc either. Been playing this game off and on ever since Sub Hunter 2 came out and I'm still learning interesting things about the game when you go into the guts of it and mess with things. |
