Q: What file or type of files should I look for, when finding out how the graphics for the torpedo tubes are positioned, on the system torpedo menu?

I want to either change the width of a piece of the graphics by scaling, or simply draw new graphics in a free area on the current texture file, and correct the positioning in the code.

Here is a problem I have, when trying to replace old torpedo graphics, with new ones that are some pixels wider:
The dark overlay graphics seen when reloading a torpedo tube, is located in a different .dds file than the one the torpedoes are in.
The dark overlay graphics, seem to be currently limited to a certain amount of pixels in width. This overlay is currently scaled up, but still does not cover the width of my new torpedo. And I don't know how to either scale it wider, or to simply draw a new but wider overlay in the texture file at some different posision in the .dds file.

As I have modeled two different shapes for the new torpedoes, one for the gas turbine and the other being the electric one, the dark overlay will only fit one type of torpedo shpae, the way things work currently. But this will have to do. I am only interested in the width issue, the shape of the mask is not really a problem.
