only looking for answers here people, not some twatish remark.
thanks in advance...to those that offer help.

jeff can be a bit harsh, from time-to-time, as he has been viewing the same questions from different posters for many years, but what he posted was true.

you would need to crack the compiled code to find what you are seeking.
if anyone has done that, to date, which is doubtful, they would probably not broadcast it in a post because, potentially, you could get into trouble with Ubi, because they, Ubi, may consider it a violation of the the EULA that you-and-we agreed-to when we installed the program.

so....don't take it as a personal snub if no one provides a solution to your question. there are many who have asked the same question as you and dozens more, and the answer is unattainable. both the list of questions and askers is long and distinguished.

clearly, the SH4 user manual documentation is a slap-dash attempt and contains references to previous versions of Silent Hunter that are no longer available in SH4.
