This also means you do not have to add entries in the ships.ini?
The old method was to clone the new ship you wanted to have and rename all relevant stuff according to the slot name of the old one...
using your method you just assign an existing ship model (that has all the relevant 3d files and ini entries in their respective places already) to any given name you place in chief.ini...do I get that correct ?

That appears to be correct. The great thing about that is that the generics could be replaced with appropriate ships for their country, and any old campaigns using a generic would still run fine.

I suspect that no current mission/campaign builders would usually be likely to employ a generic anyway as the range of ships is now extensive, but as vampire says, it has some historical significance as old campaigns would still run (just with the new generic).

Thinking about it I guess old missions still need to be updated as the chiefs section in the missions will have old references for the generics which will be superseded by our newly introduced ones... Or am I wrong here? (Cannot crosscheck as we are on vacation currently)

No. Provided the "new" clone names match the old Generic then the *.mis files will be fine. Refer to post #8.

Yeah you are right, it was a thinking error on my part...
Well then, something new to try when I get back home then

Actually, yes and no!
This move only works for "chiefs", aka moving ships! It will not work for sataionaries!

Chiefs are handled by their "given name" in a mis file (as a chief can contain several objects, which are individually identified through the chief.ini)
A stationary item/ship/vehicle is directly referenced with their class name in the .mis file

1_Static ships.Ship$USSBBGeneric 2 102153.22 99184.77 360.00 0.0 0 2 1.0

Therefore, the "renaming move" will not take on as the class name directly leads to something else.
A mission containing this line will still come up blank in that spot.

Ah thanks for the clarification...
I knew there was a section I had to fiddle with more thoroughly in the mis file when I converted some USN training missions from Asura's DGen pack to make them work in WAW...

What might work is to look through all classfiles in the TGA objects.ships folder and search for the text string "USSBBGeneric" ... This might turn up a classfile or two that enables said ship...from what I know about adding ships it should really be only one classfile I guess...
Given the "old" method of substituting the 3do for ships, this should be the best method of getting for example the USS Tennessee to replace the KGV as USSBbGeneric...

Vampire_pilot · « **Reply #19 on:** September 06, 2020, 04:18:34 AM »

the classfile is present and the 3do is stock. Still, a no show.

Griffon_301 · « **Reply #20 on:** September 06, 2020, 05:26:33 AM »

That's really a strange issue....

Fixed damage skin files.

If you're getting 70% CTD, chances are, your ships.ini entry is too "new". You have to "downgrade" it like this:

I think I found the solution to make the USSBBGeneric working again in WAW3...

CAUTION!!!
the following is only for EXPERIENCED USERS who want to experiment a little!
IN NO WAY DO THIS IF YOU DONT NEED THE USSBBGeneric in the game!
alright, you have been warned:

what I did was to compare the TGA3 folder files with the WAW3 folder files, as in TGA, the USSBBGeneric works, while in WAW3 it does not!
using a text crawler, I found one classfile in TGA3 with reference to the USSBBGeneric, while in WAW3, there are actually three!

I kept the one that resides in the engine mod folder of both, TGA3 and WAW3 but remmed out the following classfile in classes-objectsships folder:
9AED69FCA28642D0

I remmed that one out, put the ini entries for the USSBBGeneric back in again and in doing so also substituted the totally inappropriate 3do from the stock KgV RN BB with the new Colorado from Ashe for the USSBBGeneric, using well established procedures from some moons ago..

e voila, Ashe´s Colorado is now my new USSBBGeneric, and it works in the game, both as moving and as stationary ship;
Doing some test with missions in FMB, I have noticed no bad sideeffects yet, but I have tested only a few of the ships, referenced in the remmed out classfile;
so far, all of them work though

might be the way to go in that regard... at least for mission and campaign compatibility, that might be a way...
this one contains a lot of references to ships but I checked mentioned ships in the FMB after
