Otherwise, it is a drop-in for all of the other boats. Similarly with the conning towers, other than there are slight differences in gun configurations, but you always find the Watch in UnitPart X.Compartment 1 (possibly UnitPart 1-4 for each conn), the aft gun crews in Compartment 2, and the fore gun crews in Compartment 3. Otherwise, they all "reside" in CrewMemberSlot X. So Submarine folder, SubName.upc for submarine stuff - which would be the Deck Gun Slots, and the UPCData UPCUnitsData folder, UnitPartsXSubName.upc file for the watch and AA positions. The only caveat is that you crew positions between the boats will be in a different order of ranking, dependent upon Class, such that the S-Boat might have a Junior Officer, a CPO, and a PO1C as your watch leaders, whereas the Fleetboats have Junior Officer, CPO and Junior Officer, but in any of the possible rank order...


I've tried FOTRS as well as Travellers CWC mod and another CWC mod for TMO Sboats, just doesnt work for fleetboats. I made all the changes and does not work. Every time I enable it, CTD, CTD. Disable, not CTD.

I think its the different crew positions etc. but Im pretty much lost and at wits end on this one (unreal how much trouble it is lol) which is why I posted. Yes, I'd love to use the CWC from FOTRS, watch caps etc but at this point but if could get others to work id be happy, something.


Just need a working example perhaps for TMO in a fleetboat, so can make it happen, thus the post. You know how this sim is lol
