[REL] Captain Midnight's CBS News Mod NEWS AS IT HAPPENS!!!

Made by

CaptainCox

Download Part 1: 1941-42 here

Added 103 more news events, that's 161 in total!(old version 58)

Added some Captain Midnight radio episodes and some more commercials

Removed ALL! music as I think people have different tastes and there is also the copyright issue.

To add your own music to the CBS Radio channel, simply dump your mp3 files in:

Captain Midnights MORE CBS NEWS! MOD v1,2\Data\Sound\Radio\CBS NEWS

This will add a new radio station to your Submarine Radio.

Tune in to Frequency

30.0, Radio news bulletins will be broadcasted live as they happen

and that all through out this bloody war.
The "LIVE" Radio news bulletins are 161 all together
and spans from 1941-12-07 to 14-08-1945
(Mostly CBS, but also some other stuff)
and are broadcasted they day they actually happened

(times during the day may vary)

When there is no "LIVE" news a collection of commercials will play, all from the era.

If you have other stuff you would like to listen to simply go to the
"CBS NEWS" in the mod folder and replace the audio files to whatever you like)
DISSABLE THE MOD in JSGME before you do this!!!

after you have replaced the audio files you can of course enable the mod again.

If you feel that you don't want to wait for the exact date to hear

these news broad casts you can also copy the files over to

C:/ Program Files/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the

Pacific/Data/Sound/Radio/Washington

They will just play at random...maybe a bit strange to hear about Hiroshima or Iwo Jima early 42.

Creds to "tedhealy" for the method of writing the "Radio.ini"

and the info on Patch 1.2

Install:

Simply use with JSGME

If you don't have it get it here:

Great job, added to the Main Subsim page.

Modders are at it again! Great Job

Its my humble opinion that Ubi should hire you guys to develop SH5 in tandem with the actual devs!

letterboy1 · 03-24-2007, 12:53 PM

Yes, this is what I call adding to immersion. Thanks CaptainCox and thanks to the devs for adding this feature. I can't wait to start a campaign now.

We should have a thread to request radio frequencies for mods so radio mods won't conflict.

Currently I'm doing an all entertainment radio mod that is going to have 50+ hours of old time radio shows from the war and I'm probably going to use frequency 38.

Freq 22 = Washington
Freq 30 = Captain Midnight CBS Radio Station
Freq 38 = Los Angeles

Splendid mod idea. Let's hope it's great in-game, too.

"Have you gotten Charmichael to go to sleep yet?!"

What about the rest of the features of the media? Will you have an annoying war reporter on board that keeps getting in the way? Will the news keep broadcasting pictures from your sinkings 1000 times? Will you be stalked by paparazzis giving your position away to the enemy?

Thanx a lot - Great work
