Removing Gunner position from vehicles.

Hello, I want to remove the gunner position from tanks so that the driver can control the main gun, just like in good ol' vainalla BF2.

I like it better when I can drive the tank and shoot its gun myself. I know this feature must have something to do with the .tweak files in the Vehicles_Server.zip.

for example, the M1A2 Abrams (us_tnk_m1a2.tweak) located in Vehicles_Server_Patch1, so I tried removing all the lines that included the "Gunner camera" and "ObjectTemplate.aiTemplate Gunner" etc etc.
or I just replaced the "Gunner" with the "Driver" (by overwriten it in the text editor). But after I made the changes and started PR mod again, it either crashed to the Desktop, or the M1 Abrams didn't work correctly anymore. ( I couldn't get in the tank and it was "sliding" on the floor).

So I basically hope you guys will help me out. Which are the exact lines that need to be changed in order to remove the Gunner's position?

There are already modified version of most vehicles in PR. They have _bf2 after they name. So add _bf2 to its name in GameplayObjects.con or spawn it with rcon comand adding _bf2.
