I know that the sounds change from the sub to the exterior, and I'm looking into a connection there. Maybe it's a sample rate change, I don't know yet, since my main computer decided to take a vacation Saturday evening after a Windows Update. I am getting tired of this Windows issue. I initially thought it was a hard drive problem, but ~no~... Windows Update. I've got a Windows 10 test partition on the hard drive, and I'm very tempted to get rid of it, but I'm afraid it won't put my Win7 back the way it was... Anyway, I'm back on the main computer again, and going through the audio files and their differences between the versions.
When you made your file list with Yahoo!, were you able to get the "details" to copy over, such as file size, modify date, etc. - that kind of stuff?...
Also, if I get something useful with the sounds, I'll have to PM you for how to properly use Google Drive for upload. It took me a while to figure out how to download stuff. I can only imagine the shear terror I'll put in the Google people's hearts if I try to upload... "Oh no! He's online again, trying to upload to us... Brace for impact!"

Okay folks, here's how to get a text file of the contents of a directory. First it helps to be old--from the days of DOS, because Windows won't cut the cheeze on this one. We're going to use the command line, so hit the Start button unless you have Windows 8 and then just commit suicide. Then in the search box type "cmd" and press <enter>.
You'll get the quaint "command window" which is really a DOS box, or at least the crippled remains of DOS. We still have the tools to get the job done.
Now you'll have to navigate to the directory which contains the ship files. Type "cd c:\ubisoft\SH4FOTRS\data\sea" or whatever directory has the files you want. In mine, if I want the ships in FOTRS 2.0 it would be "cd C:\ubisoft\SH4FOTRS\MODS\FOTRS 2.0\sea." CD means change directory. Capitals don't need to be used because DOS doesn't care about letter case.
Now that you're there, double check by typing "dir." You should see a list of the files on your machine. Good.
Now type "dir > Ships in FOTRS 2.0.txt" It will pour everything you just saw on screen with the last command into a file called FOTRS 2.0.txt in the same directory you're working in.
Of course you can substitute exact directories and file names as you see fit and you are now a certified old person. Congratulations......I think.
Oh, if you type exit and press enter the command box will close.
