Icon9 Changing the Nation of a Uboat?

Hello People,

I like to play the american "Quick Missions" in SH4.

Now I wanted to ask, if it is somehow possible to make custom , downloaded subs - which have been made availbe for the german quick missions - available for the pacific quick missions. Is this somehow possible?
I am not into modding at all, so I hope there is a way to simply drag some files or change some files.

Thank you for your time.

Have you looked at Operation Monsun?

First, thank you very much.

No I have not installed or looked into operation monsun. I have heard from the mod though. But why should I look into it?

I have some custom made, downloaded subs. Like for example the TITAN or the Typhoon sub. FOR EXAMPLE. The thing is just, that in the quick-missions tab, the subs only appear on the german side and not for the american quick missions. is this somehow possible to change it?

Welcome aboard Mad0Dude!

I don't think anyone even considered what you're asking. You can look in the files to see if there is something to change. Sorry, I can't help further.
Don't be afraid to ask questions. We're all glad to help.

I'm assigning you to permanent duty in The Bilge. We need as much help there as we can get.

There's a way to do it, can't remember at the moment though. I'll look into it.

Well after looking into it for a couple of days, there doesn't seem to be a real easy way to do it. Several files need their contents changed. I tried adding the IX D2 to the US side and ended up with no crew, torpedoes, or conning tower.

I did some text modding and converted IXD2 uboat to US side with Us crew and german weapons & equipment. Not tested extensively but it seems to work with stock 1.5 and TMO and Game Fixes only mods (single missions & campaigns)

I merged & edited some configuration files (mainly .upc files with Notepad)

Grab it while you can. Hope you like it.

Known problems: 20mm AA guns not working but 37mm at least appears...

(btw This is my first post - I've been lurking here for years.)
