K 19 -> Here's how to add new database photos and custom unit descriptions (9/29/2013 1:14:03 AM)

There don't seem to be any clear instructions on how to add new database photos and database custom unit descriptions. So I took it upon myself to figure it out. It's fairly simple, actually. Here's what I did.
Adding new database photos:
1. Inside the game, open the database viewer of the unit you want to add a photo to.
2. Look for the unit # at the very top. For example, Soviet submarine PLARB-658 Hotel I is #71. Make note of this number.
3. Now go into the game directory and find the folder with the database photos. For example- C:\Matrix Games\Command Modern Air Naval Operations\DB\Images\CWDB. Choose the photo you want to add. Just make sure it's a .jpg file. Now rename it to the number of the unit you want to add it to. For example, the new Hotel I photo would be named Submarine_71.jpg
Example of the different unit types for photos:
Aircraft_1.jpg
Facility_1.jpg
Ship_1.jpg
Submarine_1.jpg
4. Now drop that new photo into the Images CWDB folder. It should now show up in the game's database. If you cannot see the new photo you added, try adding it to the C:\Matrix Games\Command Modern Air Naval Operations\DB\Images\DB3000 folder instead.
Adding new database custom unit descriptions:
1. Inside the game, open the database viewer of the unit you want to add the custom text description to.
2. Look for the unit # at the very top. For example, Soviet submarine PLARB-658 Hotel I is #71. Make note of this number.
3. Now go into the game directory and find the folder with the database text descriptions. For example- C:\Matrix Games\Command Modern Air Naval Operations\DB\Descriptions\CWDB. Create a new .txt file. Add the custom text to the text file. Now rename it to the number of the unit you want to add it to. For example, the new Hotel I text description file would be named Submarine_71.txt
Example of the different unit types for custom descriptions:
Aircraft_1.txt
Facility_1.txt
Ship_1.txt
Submarine_1.txt
4. Now drop that new text file into the Descriptions CWDB folder. It should now show up in the game's database. If you cannot see the new unit description you added, try adding it to the C:\Matrix Games\Command Modern Air Naval Operations\DB\Descriptions\DB3000 folder instead.
That's it. [:D]
