[REL] Thomsen's Sound Pack V 3.0, 3.1 & 3.2

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Ahoy there...

For me, sound is one of the most important things in a game, both for imersion and for realism. There is a huge lack of sound mods for SH3, so I decided to start doing that, collecting every sound I could and putting it to work for the sake of all of us. I bet you're already tired of listening the same old sounds since you start playing SH3, while all the other parts of the game are updated by mods in a daily basis.

This is the THIRD version (actually the 194th version I think :lol: ) of my sound pack mod. In this version I have some few surprises for you guys...


- Destroyer sound
Remember those moments of tension in Das Boot when a destroyer was passing over them ready to depth charge? Now you have it. The sound you'll hear inside the u-boat when you're submerged and a destroyer is coming above you to sh!t all over you is the same sound from the movie. I've been playing with it and I must say it sounds incredible. Much more frightening!

- No more looping cranks sounds
Now you have a lot of short creak sounds, which is more realistic, and prevents the game from looping these sounds.

- Increased number of different cranks
from 4 to 47 (yes, 47 different sounds) in shuffle mode, working in groups of 5, so you can have a combination of 1.533.939 different creak sounds everytime you load your game. (ps. Refer to the V3.1 update)

- Reduced bass
of most sounds for headphone players. No more distortion when listening to sounds with high volume.

- Real sounds
of diesel engines, recorded during the WW2, by BBC.
of torpedos being launched from uboat, recorded during the WW2 by BBC.
of weather sounds (wind, ocean, rain, thunder rolls) recorded by BBC.

- WhispeRING RING mod included
lower volume on the RING RING sound for orders in speed changes so your dont hurt your ears.

- Identifying target/Solution to target
New sounds for it, a more realistic approach, you hear the sound of book searching and TDC calculations, instead of the instant response. Although the sound is longer and more realistic, I'm still working on the order reply (still coming out after two seconds, instead of after the sound finishes).

- Submarine ambient Interior Sounds
Three new sounds for it. All of them are 30 minutes long, so you don't have to hear the same short and repetitive sound all the time, the patrols are long, so should be the ambient sound. The first one is a ambient sound taken from Das Boot, so you have a lot of crew chatting in the back. The second one is with no chatting at all, for those who understand german language and think its not imersive. The third one (which will be played by default) is a mix of both first and second, but chatting on the left channel and ambient on the right, creating a very nice and imersive stereo ambient. It's my favorite one.

- New radio sounds
For new radio message received. You can hear the typewritter and crew chatting. For those who like to hear the morse code, there's also a compressed file inside, just de-compress it and enable via JSGME.

And thousand other things you'll notice during gameplay. I'll not put it all here becouse I can't remember all of them. Over 10 thousand files.

Im my humble opinion there's still a LOT of things to fix/improve. Im not even close to be satisfied with the sound pack yet, but I realised that I can't go on without feedback, and that's where you all can help!


Thomsen's Sound Pack V3.1 is online at my FileFront page!

The new version have very important corrections on the creak sounds:

1 - They now aren't so frequent, have a delay between items and plus a random delay over that.
2 - Their volume was cut down to half of the original amplitude, all 47 files.

Enable it via JSGME as the original sound pack.

THIS IS A COMPLEMENT TO THE SOUND PACK V3, NOT THE WHOLE FILE! For now I'll keep this as a complement, when I reach a acceptable point on this, I'll put together with the sound pack and upload as one single file. It's pretty large, 6 hours of upload, so doesn't makes sense to keep uploading all again each time I change something.

First enable the sound pack, then this on top of it, or replace the files into the original sound pack and enable it again.

Now you guys must test it and report back to BDU, as my game is not working, so I can't test it myself. I found that the reason that the creaks were so loud is that my volume was very low when I was producing them. Now I've set my volume to the normal I used to play the game, and it sounds more acceptable, but still if you're not satisfied, it can be changed again, that's why feedback is so important!
V3.2 UPLOADED!

Small fix on the collision_ship.wav. Removed the german voices from it, so it wouldn't be weird when hearing two british ships colliding.CHANGELOG:

I don't keep a changelog.


F.A.Q.

1) Is this mod compatible with *whatever*?

For being a sound mod, its much easier to have compatibility with anything. I'll not post the list of mods that this sound pack is compatible with, it would be a long list. When enabling with JSGME, compatibility issues will be presented to you, or not. If you have any doubt about any compatibility, ask me here, posting the files that JSGME found being used by another mod and I'll give you an answer, and if thats the case I'll upload a file solving the issue for you. Basically it will work normally with anything, but in case of warning messages about files of .dat, .dsd, .txt and .cfg extensions, please ask me more details here.

2) How do I install it?

First off, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND you to have the latest version of winrar, this sound pack is heavily compressed to make a more easy download, so you can get bad extractions using older versions of winrar. Its 850 mb of mod compressed in a 350mb solid archive. Just extract the content of the .rar file in your silenthunterIII/mods directory. Done that, enable it via JSGME. Even being compatible with GWX, its very likely for you to get warning messages when enabling, thats normal. Any doubt, read the 1) above.

3) I cant hear the "jahowl, herr kaleun" when giving an order, whats up?

From the "instructions.txt" in the mod folder:

This mod changes almost everysound of the game, and also removed that annoying
"Jahowl, herr kaleun" everytime you give an order. I hate to hear that everytime, so I removed
it, now you only hear the crew taking care of executing the order, after a little pause. After watching some movies, I've come to realize that this way is much more realistic.
If you want that back, just delete the following files of my mod before enabling it:
Inside the folders 1 to 9 in speech, delete:
ChE_K_Yes_Sir.ogg
ChE_S_Yes_Sir.ogg
ChE_P_Yes_Sir.ogg
Deleting those will make the mod work with the "jahowl kerr kaleun" after giving every order.4) I don't like *whatever* on the sound mod

Thats great! :up: Be a good guy and start throwing wrenches at Thomsen! :rock:
Decent mods are made after a lot of feedback. Say what you don't like, why you don't like and how it should be modifyed. Modifying a sound is very easy for me, difficult is knowing where to use the magic wand!

5) Thomsen, when I enable your sound pack I lose some functionalities on the keyboard, like the binoculars and other stuff.

It's very easy to fix this. Just follow these steps:

1) Disable my mod, go to my mod's folder and delete both folders "MENU" and "CFG"
2) Enable my mod back on.
3) Go to sh3/data/menu and open en_menu.txt and change the line #1052 to:

1052=System check, diesel engine start

4) Open the sh3/data/cfg/commands_en.cfg and edit it with the notepad, in line #341:

[Cmd341]
Name=WP_Target_nearest_ship
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F140002
Str=1052
Key0=0x53,Cc,"CTRL S"
Key1=0x53,c,"CTRL S"

Just copy and paste this over there. So there you go, you have the CTRL+S system start at the beggining of your patrol working with any version of commands_en.cfg and en_menu.txt, so by all means this will make V3 compatible with anything.

6) But thomsen, you're nutz! How the hell am I going to download such enormous file if I have a dial-up conection?

Easy there... Thinking of you guys, I've uploaded the same file divided in 10 parts, so you can download 10x 35mb files without a sweat!

7) The other interior sounds you mentined before, how do I put them to work?

The three sounds are in the same folder (sound folder). To activate them you have to rename them. The game will only load "ambient_submarineInterior.wav", so the other files have a number in the end "... interior1.wav" or "...interior2.wav"... you just have to rename the one you want, removing that number in the end.
-------------------------------------------------------------

There's a lot of guys behind all this sounds, which I don't know. If you think you have part on any of these sounds, I thank you very much for all your effort, it wouldn't be possible without it.

Sorry guys, fell asleep... days working on this...

[mikaelanderlund]

Hi Thomsen,

cool mod:up: . Is the commands_en.cfg file compatible with OLC GUI commands_en.cfg file?

Mikael

[ichso]

Lol, I went into your FF-folder to download the sound mod and saw that there's a ~90MB VIIC skin there XD
Must download that before and look what makes this so large :yep::lol:
EDIT: I see, not only one skin...

What??? There's no skin in my FF-folder... and there's not any 90mb size file there too...

Are you sure you're in MY FF-folder? :hmm:

[Able72]

can't wait to try it out.

I love your sounds.

Not anymore.
I followed the link in your sig but perhaps clicked on some link there to a related download in someone else's folder.
I was very tired yesterday... :-?

[java`s revenge]

Have tried this mod and it`s great!!

Very good diesel sound.
Love the other sounds too, it makes together with the olc mods a real uboat sim.

Btw i do use -requiem for a dream- as menumusic. And i disabled that ring ring sound.

Thanks for this work.

[Vader 1]

very nice adds a nice dimension on the boat I haven't played for a long time but your sound mod got me to fire up the engines again I love the start up file.

Quick question what do the mods to the interior files change/or do

Thanks again??

[Christoff]

I'm just grabbing this now, so if I notice any problems I'll let you know straight away m8
And thanks for putting this altogether, can't wait :up:

[Uber Gruber]

I like it.....but is there anyway I can turn off the message morse/speach/type writer/speach thing everytime a radio message comes through ? I use the Extended Radio Message mod and hearing this noise combo everytime is starting to drive me up the wall. Ideally, i'd just like a wee bit of morse and thats it....if possible. :up:

I agree, something a bit shorter, though I would like to hear ONLY the typewriter and then the voice after.

The dive sequence seems a bit out of place volume wise.

LOVE the new creeks, removal of the "Jahowl, herr kaleun" really wish that had been done sooner :yep:

Hope the feedback helps. Thanks Thomsen.

[moscowexile]

I have installed the sound mod and it works a treat. Being the Captain Bligh of the Kriegsmarine, I followed the instructions so as not to delete the "Jawohl Kaleun" because on my boat I demand RESPECT with a capital"R". Furthermore, I believe that deleting the acknowledgement of an order received somewhat diminishes the "immersion factor".

Not wishing to appear to be throwing a spanner into the works, I do however have one small criticism, although this criticism in no way has anything to do with this admirable sound mod: the sound of the supercharged diesels firing up is music to the ears, but is there any way of modifying the diesel exhaust gas so that it belches forth and billows around the stern of the boat as the engines fire, as I am sure would have happened in real life?

I do recall that there is a tweak file or whatever in the exhaust mod that enables one to show oily exhausts caused by misfires and engine wear etc., but I am an absolute novice in these matters and fear dabbling with things I know little of.

Any ideas?

[onelifecrisis]

Congrats PT :up:
Looking forward to patrolling with this, just as soon as I get OLCE2 finished.
(It's kicking my arse! Damn you for talking me into aiming for perfection! :x :damn: :p )

Thanks Thomsen for the great work :up:

Great FAQ, specially the section 5 :D

Isn't my WhispeRING RING mod included? I thought it was... :hmm:

Edit: It is included, but I realised even so the ring ring is still kinda loud. If you share this opinion, talk to me. I can lower even more the ring ring to be comfortable to hear.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

They control the playlist of the depth cranks, the only way to increase the number of cranks...

I'm planning for the next version to include about 30 different crank sounds and maybe a randomizer, what you think? :know:

To be honest I aimed the radio message sound to full realism, but you're kinda right... It can be quite nerving to listen that sound too often...

Tell me exactly what you wanna hear and I'll make a mod perfectly for your fit!

Maybe a shorter version of it, or even better, maybe a very low volume of the sound, in the background, type of sound that wouldn't bother coz you have to REALLY pay attention to notice it... talk to me!

You too, talk to me, what you want for "new message received" sound?
Imagine I'm the McDonalds of sound mods, I'll make your special as ordered!

[Philipp_Thomsen]

I have installed the sound mod and it works a treat. Being the Captain Bligh of the Kriegsmarine, I followed the instructions so as not to delete the "Jawohl Kaleun" because on my boat I demand RESPECT with a capital"R". Furthermore, I believe that deleting the acknowledgement of an order received somewhat diminishes the "immersion factor".

But consider that I'm playing this game for almost 4 years now, that "jawohl herr kaleun" was driving me nutz already. And besides, the voices don't match on the new mod. I have to find a new and realistic WW2 sound of "jawohl herr kaleun" to replace on the mod. Anyone have anything like that to help me?

Not wishing to appear to be throwing a spanner into the works, I do however have one small criticism, although this criticism in no way has anything to do with this admirable sound mod: the sound of the supercharged diesels firing up is music to the ears, but is there any way of modifying the diesel exhaust gas so that it belches forth and billows around the stern of the boat as the engines fire, as I am sure would have happened in real life?

Lemme see if I understand what you're suggesting... You wanna a cloud of black smoke going out of the exhausters when the engine starts, just like in real life? If so, I'm not sure it can be done, but sure as hell it would be killing! :rock: RUBINIIIIII, I NEED YOUR HELP HEEEEEERE!!! :lol:

I do recall that there is a tweak file or whatever in the exhaust mod that enables one to show oily exhausts caused by misfires and engine wear etc., but I am an absolute novice in these matters and fear dabbling with things I know little of.

I'm going for it! :up:

Any ideas?

(It's kicking my arse! Damn you for talking me into aiming for perfection! :x :damn: :p )

Thank you very much, OLC. Without your help this mod would be half as good as it is now. And I'm still not happy, I think I can do much better then this piece of sh!t!

So I guess I won the race to finishing the mod first! :rotfl:

If you want any more help, feedback or beta-testing, lemme know, I have a lot of free time now!

And you should try using my mod from now on, since I killed the bassy sounds that were disturbing you so much! :up:

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Thanks Thomsen for the great work :up:

AGREED! :lol:

[Gairith]

You too, talk to me, what you want for "new message received" sound?
Imagine I'm the McDonalds of sound mods, I'll make your special as ordered!

What I was thinking was having the sound file start with the typewriter sound a little longer and little quieter, as if the guy is in the next room over (about 25% lower) then the voice saying "Herr Kaleun"
I mean the radio operator has headphones on, I shouldn't hear the morse. If you can't make the typewriter "strikes" quieter then that's fine.

As far as the Yes sir file. Did they really say yes sir after each command or did they repeat the order given to confirm they heard it? What was protocol anyone know?

P.S. I love the two-way radio when switching torps. Very nice.

[Fubar2Niner]

Love it, Love it, Love it. What more can I say....oh yes..... I LOVE IT !!!!!!! :rock:

Hi Thomsen,

Amazing work there :rock::rock::up::up:

i am using my own command_fr.cfg file to keep my french kb setiings with OLC's GUI mod. Could you tell me which modifications you've made on the command_en.cfg so that I can reproduce them to my own .cfg file??? please :smug:

Thanks Herr Kaleun

[moscowexile]

U.S. and Royal Navy protocol is (was?) as follows:

Aye aye sir!

Naval response indicating that an order has been received, is understood, and will be carried out immediately. In operational situations, this is usually shortened to simply "aye." In constrast to "Aye Aye sir," a response of "Yes Sir" usually indicates that the person understands but is contemplating performing the ordered task at a later time or date.


Ships Captain: "Lieutenant, I need those reports by 1400hrs."
Executive Officer: "Aye aye sir."

Officer of the Deck: "Helm, make your course 149."
Helmsman "Making course 149, aye."

(From US web site)

The two "ayes", acording to the Oxford dictionary, mean: always/by all means/with certainty/yes. That is exactly what jawohl means in German. The first "aye" means an emphatic "yes" and is still used with this meaning in parts of the UK.

The second "aye" means "indeed", "for sure", as in:

"Aye, she's a bonny wench!"

(Shades of Long John Silver!)

Got the idea! Working on it now! :up:

As far as the Yes sir file. Did they really say yes sir after each command or did they repeat the order given to confirm they heard it? What was protocol anyone know?

I think it was full of protocols with a new capitan, but once the crew had patrolled with him once or twice, I think that it was basically repeated orders. And besides, repeated orders sounds sooooooo much better. Do my sound pack have repeated orders? I dont remember... honestly... Im modding 90% of the time, almost never play the game.. :rotfl:
P.S. I love the two-way radio when switching torps. Very nice.

If you like the idea, please send me those "CHE_Yes_Sir.ogg" files coz I don't have any of them for a long time now... :rotfl:

Thanks for picking up the gauntlett re the radio message received sounds. I was using the extended radio message mod but i'm going to deactivate it as, to be honest, I'm only interested in hearing radio news about actual war events such as invasion of russia, battle of tobruk, crete etc....I'm really not interested in what other U-Boats are up to so.

But even with the extended radio message mod deactivated I still find the message received sounds difficult to appreciate. I like the morse, even though the radio operator would have earphones on. So my preference would be for just a short morse code sound and thats all......if thats possible then cool!

Still an excellent mod though.:up:

I would like to have just short "dididit" -sound for radio message :hmm:
Not very official format, but it would serve it's purpose :)

...and I usually prefer Margherita Pizzas :rock:

Just wish my boat would have such a cool engine sound when travelling, too :D

Thanks, your mods are great w/ GWX, I have no problems!

[Vader 1]

I love the fact you were able to tap into more creak sounds this may well be the tip ogf the iceberg.

My hat off sir

Wait for 333 different creak sounds on V3 version! :up:

Read this in the first post:

There's a lot of guys behind all this sounds, which I don't know. If you think you have part on any of these sounds, I thank you very much for all your effort, it wouldnt be possible without it.

From the guys I know, thanks to Reece, Venatore and Chris.

So if there's a problem then i'm sure no malice was intended and it can be resolved via PM:hmm:

[ReallyDedPoet]

As mentioned Venatore, why not send PT a PM? I am sure there were no bad intentions, and this can be worked out in a positive manner.

[ichso]

The Ctrl+S sound is really nice.
I didn't install the mod yet but I listened into the file from the speech folder.

Just wish my boat would have such a cool engine sound when travelling, too :D
You think its better/cooler then the BBC diesel engine sound? The last is 100% realistic, the other one Im not sure, but if this is a public opinion, I can switch!

Which one now is the BBC engine sound ?

I just really like the sound when the diesel engines start, it sounds a little bit like an old tractor but I wasn't there and it sounds realistic for me.

Bad intentions!?!?!?! Hell no, I can't thank Venatore enough for maybe a dozen sounds I've edited to compose my sound pack! But I'd like to state publically that if there's any problem with those sounds, I'll replace them no problem. I don't want to cause any trouble, Venatore. :up:

You can enable no problem. My mod was built on top of integrated orders and open hatch, so it have all that it needs... :up:

[Philipp_Thomsen]

I want to thank you all for the support... 500 downloads so far! :rock:


Next version of the sound pack is underway, and a lot of new stuff is being implementes, between them 30 new creak sounds. That's right, you'll have 30 different creak sounds being played at random, with you be much more imersive and realistic than 4 long creak sounds playing repeatitively.

More news to follow.

ETA is 30 days. :up:

GWX 2.1 RELEASED! :rock:

I just wish to tell everyone that my current sound pack V2 will WORK with GWX 2.1, but its not fully compatible. When enabling it via JSGME, it will acuse some incompatibilities, you can go ahead and enable it, for now.

Im already working on the V3 version of the sound pack which will be 100% compatible with GWX 2.1.

The release will be next week, or even this weekend.

Take care, guys! :up:

"U-boats were safer than airplanes. Proof was, there were more airplanes at the bottom of the ocean, than there were U-boats in the air during WWII"

:rotfl:

True... true...

Ven, I have some amazing ideas for the next sound pack... I was just thinking right now, since Im going to make 30 lines of creak sounds, I could edit one of the sound for very deep water to be a sound of bolts shooting around and glasses breaking, maybe even some screams... and maybe... maybe the capitan saying "easy guys... its just the pressure" (in german, of course). and maybe... maybe... and what it... I could... :hmm:

[ichso]

*Throws a tiny wrench at PT*

The sounds are nice, but what I didn't like so much was the ambient interior sound of the boat.
There are just too many things from Das Boot to hear. And if you understand all that it's very irritating if somebody in the background constantly starts talking about football when you are actually trying to escape 3 destroyers above your head ^^.
I just copied the original GWX ambient sound file back.

[Uber Gruber]

I like the Das Boot captain chatting in the background.....but then I don't understand German so its all atmospherical to me. That said, i can see how it might be annoying if you're a german speaker etc.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Exactly!

For those that don't understand german (90% of ppl here) the ambient sound is very atmorpherical.

For the next release, I'll make a new ambient sound, something around 30 minutes of sound, and I'll try to cut out any kind of speeches in the back, or at least cut out speeches that would be weird to listen while playing.

:up:

[Fubar2Niner]

Great news PT, I'm drooling already, may even put off my install of 2.1 till your new pack arrives.

Best regards.

Thomsen...I think i've found a small bug, probably not important. If you activate your mod BEFORE switching to German Voices then the game crashes when switching to German Voices in the options menu.

However, if you switch to German Voices first then everything is fine.

The next version will contain a lot more than just sound files... Will be a complete sound pack, with a lot of stuff that have never been implemented, some major imersion giver... Such as it is, it will take longer to make it all work... I'm working hard on this, with help from other modders as well...

Soon as I can make the last issue works, I'll be posting! Maybe today, maybe 3 weeks from now... who knows? :up:

Having read through this particular post, your Sound Pack sounds really good and I would love to give it a try - only one problem. I cannot for the life of me find a link. I tried going into FileFront and carried out a search to no avail. Are you able to provide a link or am I missing something here (if I am, apologies). I hope you can help.

2) Look in the folders... there are a folder for each of my mods, they appear in the middle of the screen!

Thanks very much Herr Thomsen,

I have now managed to download the Sound Pack and love the difference it has made to the game. It is a great sound mod and I will keep it installed from now on.

I am not keen on the tube door opening sound though (too quiet for me) and wondered if I am able to recover the GWX2.1 sound for this - is it possible to just replace the tube opening WAV with the one from GWX2.1 (can anybody tell me where I can get this from)? Should there also be one for tube closing? Sorry, so many questions in one paragraph but advice appreciated.

Rgds
K Gunz

[K Gunz]

Hallo Herr Thomsen,

Regarding my previous, I have managed to find the WAV I was interested in and overwritten the Sound Pack V2 WAV - this was for the tube open/close WAV.

There are some fantastic sounds in your Sound Pack Herr, thanks very much for all of your hard work - it's appreciated :yep:.

Well... I don't know for sure if the sh3.sdl was changed from 2.0 to 2.1... If not, its compatible... If it was, its not compatible, but it works... Being a sound mod, you don't have to worry too much about breaking functionalities, once you're just replacing sounds (almost). I'm not sure if its 100% compatible with 2.1, but Im using my mod and using gwx 2.1 and so far I have not noticed anything strange. So I dare to say its compatible.

If I'm wrong, Kpt. Lehmann will be around to correct me... :arrgh!: :lol:

I want to try this mod, however when I try to enable it in JSGME I get an error about Commands_en.cfg and en_menu.txt are already changed by OLC gui special. I compared the 2 files in your mod to the OLC gui ones and while Commands_en was only 2 lines (adding ctrl-s), en_menu had a ton of differences! I noticed that the were pretty similar, but there was a lot of rephrasing of sentances (and a few misspellings :p) in your mod

example.
your mod
262=Royal Navy’s control of the Mediterranean Sea needs to be challenged. Using the bases of our Italian allies, we must disrupt the flow of supplies to the British forces in North Africa while protecting ours.

32=Carrer name already used. Overwrite it?;)

OLC gui special
262=We must challenge the Royal Navy’s control of the Mediterranean Sea. Using the bases of our Italian allies, we must disrupt the flow of supplies to the British forces in North Africa while protecting the flank of the Afrika Korps.

32=Career name already used. Overwrite it?

Now I dont know if JSGME combines files (forgive me being new to SH3 mods!) or if this will break OLC gui special, which I very much do not want to do! How critical is that en_menu.txt file to this mod?

[Able72]

Using his sound mod also seems to diable the digital display of your depth and bearing :/ in OLC's GUI 1.2.3

Thats right... If you don't know who to blaim, blaim GWX! :lol:

The en_menu.txt have only a small change. Open the file (mine) with a txt editor and search for (using the search tool) "SYSTEM" or "DIESEL ENGINE"... You'll find the line. That was changed to fit the System check and diesel engine start, for when you are starting the uboat in the mission, the CTRL+S sound. The command_en.cfg controls the CTRL+S command, while the en_menu.txt controls the spelling of the command in the text box.

For all of those reading this, V3 is under beta-testing (by me and Rubini), and it should be out in a maximum of 48 hours. Have some good changes, I'm pretty happy with this sound pack and I'm pretty confident that this is going to be the last version of it. It's gonna be compatible with the new LifeBoats mod, that should be ready in a week.

:up:

[Wartzay]

Thats right... If you don't know who to blaim, blaim GWX! :lol:

The en_menu.txt have only a small change. Open the file (mine) with a txt editor and search for (using the search tool) "SYSTEM" or "DIESEL ENGINE"... You'll find the line. That was changed to fit the System check and diesel engine start, for when you are starting the uboat in the mission, the CTRL+S sound. The command_en.cfg controls the CTRL+S command, while the en_menu.txt controls the spelling of the command in the text box.

thanks a lot. I have it up and running now and I must say it sounds damn sweet!

[Yorktown_Class]

I want to try this mod, however when I try to enable it in JSGME I get an error about Commands_en.cfg and en_menu.txt are already changed by OLC gui special. I compared the 2 files in your mod to the OLC gui ones and while Commands_en was only 2 lines (adding ctrl-s), en_menu had a ton of differences! I noticed that the were pretty similar, but there was a lot of rephrasing of sentances (and a few misspellings :p) in your mod

example.
your mod
262=Royal Navy’s control of the Mediterranean Sea needs to be challenged. Using the bases of our Italian allies, we must disrupt the flow of supplies to the British forces in North Africa while protecting ours.

32=Carrer name already used. Overwrite it?;)

OLC gui special
262=We must challenge the Royal Navy’s control of the Mediterranean Sea. Using the bases of our Italian allies, we must disrupt the flow of supplies to the British forces in North Africa while protecting the flank of the Afrika Korps.

32=Career name already used. Overwrite it?

Now I dont know if JSGME combines files (forgive me being new to SH3 mods!) or if this will break OLC gui special, which I very much do not want to do! How critical is that en_menu.txt file to this mod?
Again being wrongfully accused... I've neved edited that line, maybe OLC did in his file. I've done only ONE change in each of those two files, and I'm pretty confident about my spelling. :up:

You can enable my mod no problem... It was compatible with the previous version of OLC's work, but there are minor changes. You can fix them manually, if you wish. Thanks, I already edited in the lines for Commands_en.cfg.

Can you give me a hint as where to look for the changes you made to en_menu?

Oh and sorry about blaming you for the spelling. I realized afterwards that I should probably blame either the SH3 dev team or GWX or someone instead.:rotfl:

Just to clear up the confusion over the menu text file... there are a lot of big differences between the OLC GUI v1.2.3 menu text file, and the OLC GUI Special menu text file, because the latter is updated to include all the text changes added to GWX between 1.03 and 2.1. When you release V3, you might want to add your 1 change to the OLC GUI Special menu text file and release your mod with that (it will still work with OLC GUI 1.2.3, and it will include all the GWX 2.1 text changes).

Most of you guys don't know, but Thomsen never had time to play past 1941... Yes he never completed a campaign.

Plus, Thomsen is already very busy working hard with Rubini on the elegant version of the Life Boats mod... Almost no time to work on the V3 sound pack, that should be already done some days ago.

Maybe Thomsen can work with Poul in a possible V4 sound pack, but let him enjoy his game for at least 30 days... Thomsen is very eager to finish his first campaign.

Besides, I don't think that you people like my sound pack that much... Look at the rating, only two votes, one guy gave me 5 stars and the other one gave me ONE star... I think that is an indication to stop modding... :lol:

So much time burried in books, searching for accurate info on the internet, and the hard part of finding out how to wave the magic wand as you say to make the necessary changes.

Just last week I stumbled across this mod and was in awe of the realism of the sounds, and many of the annoying things that you've removed. I hated how much the other officers made pointless chatting repeating everything and what not. Hopefully after doing some playing you'll get back to finishing V3 which I'd been eagerly looking forward too :up:

You deserve it ;)

I do have 1 request as to how to remove 1 sounds byte:

With the barrage of radio traffic how can I remove the part where the cypher officer listens to the morse code and then types it up? Its a brilliant piece of work, but when you get radio traffic several times a hour it starts to slow things down.

Hey PT,I was wondering about one of the voices in tha back ground,there is clicking sound along with someone talking,is that voice Curd Jurgens by any chance?

I really don't know... :lol:

About 98% sure that's his voice, I have Das Boot on my tv quite frequently while playing as its a great backdrop when I'm lazy and play on my couch with my laptop. Also can hear #2's voice in the background every once in awhile talking with Jurgens. One sounds byte that always makes me chuckle is you frequently hear our "Hitler Youth Leader" lecturing the seaman about how to be an officer :rotfl:

[U56]

Hey PT,I was wondering about one of the voices in tha back ground,there is clicking sound along with someone talking,is that voice Curd Jurgens by any chance?

Kaleun in "Das Boot" was Jurgen Prochnow. Curt Jurgens was the Sub skipper in "The Enemy Below".

Yes I know,but the voice sounds like Curd Jurgens,so why I was wondering..lol

Great mod!

Didnt test it all, but is very nice.. love the scope up and down sound, engine and other athmospheric sounds.
Just the voices seems a bit outplace.

An idea.. can you also use the Das Boot music for the game music ? not the grammaphone.

I have enabled it, and it gives a nice filmish feeling when it starts to play.. with only small portions of the Das Boot music it would be even better.

P.T. how is the update on the V3 going? Almost ready or not?

[Philipp_Thomsen]

P.T. how is the update on the V3 going? Almost ready or not?

Well... 99% finished...

I was thinking of replacing the "jahowl, herr kaleun" with a new one, but so far in the movies I've (Das Boot and U-571), I did not find any good sound to extract. It's very weird having an original "yes sir" voice from ubisoft followed by another kind of voice, from another guy...

I'm thinking of leaving it without the "yes sir" files, coz after watching some movies I've realized that they almost never used the "jahowl, herr kaleun" after a command. The command would just be executed and the order repeated, just like it was in my sound pack V2. I think this is still the best & easiest way to do it...

I'll upload it this weekend.. maybe tomorrow at night, just need finish testing some few things... :up:

[Wildhawke11]

Thanks Philipp much appreciated :up:

[sabretwo]

PT,

I eagerly await your next release!

Just one comment on the current release...often when I start getting to deeper depths, some of the creak noises start looping in a very annoying way. The same thing seems to happen once in a while if glass breaks (it just keeps breaking over and over). Do you know what may be causing this. I only seem to encounter it with the sound mod activated.

PS...I've been experimenting with some modified sounds of my own. (I used to mod sounds in Audition quite a bit for other games in the past). If you're interested in hearing them, let me know. You're welcome to use them.

[Ivan Putski]

I`ve been using your sound mod since it`s release, and really enjoy it, looking forward to ver.3. Can`t wait to see what goodies you`ve come up with in the new version. IMHO, you`ve produced one of the top sound mods out there, thanks PT. Puts :up:

[Philipp_Thomsen]

V3 ON THE RUN!


Well... I'm uploading V3 in this very moment. First uploading the divided version, for those who have dial-up conection. It's 10 files of 35mb each. This way even if you don't have dial-up, you can download it. Would take me 6 hours to upload the whole file, but this way it's only 25 minutes each part, and you guys can start downloading as I'm uploading, saving a lot of time. Later on I'll upload the big one for those who have lightning fast conections...

Also the first post has been changed to explain what's new on this version.

@Sabretwo: Yes mate, we can talk... Two brains think better than one! :up:

@Ivan Putski: Thanks, mate! It's always wonderful to hear something like this after a lot of hard work... :up:

Yes, I love that part with the hatch to the engine room opening, someone complaining "shut that sh!t, I'm sleeping" and then it closing up again...

Sure some people will complain "I was 250 meters below being depth charged and I heard that with the DIESEL engine and I think it's ridiculous and blablabla..."

But you gotta think this way... It's not possible to have a different ambient sound for when submerged or surfaced, or when in silent running... It would be perfect if this were possible, but it's not... so we gotta work out with what we have... I think we are most of the time sailing from one place to another, and a very little time being depth charged or in a situation of silence... So I'm sticking with my sound pack and with my ambient stereo chatting sound. I reckon some people disagree with me, that's why there's another ambient sound included in the sound pack, for those who don't want chattering in the back.

I don't think I've mentined this before, but the sounds are in the same folder, to activate them you have to rename them. The game will only load "ambient_submarineInterior.wav", so the other files have a number in the end "... interior1.wav" or "...interior2.wav"... you just have to rename the one you want, removing that number in the end. I'll update this in the first post as well...

Hi Thomsen!

Today I want to try your mod! :rock:

but when I try to enable it JSGME gives me these warnings:

"en_menu.txt" has already been altered by the OLC GUI 1.2.5 Core Files" mod

Can I ignore these warnings?

[Schwuppes]

Hi!

I just tried the mod and I must say that I enjoy it very much! The new periscope hydraulic sound is badass.... it makes my U-Boat sound more agressive, like a high tech destroyer buster! :D

there is only one point which I would have to critique, I thought the creaking and cranking sounds were very loud and also too frequent. They come every five seconds or so... even if I'm not changing depth.
Is there any way you can change the creaking sounds so there are longer breaks in between them?


But this is just my opinion... thank you for your hard work and dedictaion! :rock:

[Ivan Putski]

Just got caught in a thick fog on the surface by a convoys lead destroyer. Most fun I`ve had in years, as I got up close, and personal with your destroyer sounds. I crash dived, and was at 19 meters when the bastage came roaring over me. He dropped his dc`s right on top of me, most exploded well below my depth, I went silent, and deep. His next run was right on, and I took damage, all the associated sounds were great, and gave so much immersion to the scene.

I had set SHIII Commander to random crush depth, and was shocked when I found myself at 258 meters with a badly damaged boat, the creaks, and moans certainly fitted the situation to a "T", as well as the flooding sounds, great work there. Long story made short, I evaded the destroyer, and was able to finally surface the boat, and limp back to base. Thanks for your hard work PT, this versions a keeper. Puts :up: :up:

"same old sounds since you start playing SH3, while all the other parts of the game are updated by mods in a daily basis". to quote!

It appears that this Sound Pack is for SH3! Is that correct? I have d/l anyway as I can always install Sh3 as well.


If it will run on SH4, I have installed, will it run with these?

Hi!

I just tried the mod and I must say that I enjoy it very much! The new periscope hydraulic sound is badass.... it makes my U-Boat sound more agressive, like a high tech destroyer buster! :D

there is only one point which I would have to critique, I thought the creaking and cranking sounds were very loud and also too frequent. They come every five seconds or so... even if I'm not changing depth.
Is there any way you can change the creaking sounds so there are longer breaks in between them?


But this is just my opinion... thank you for your hard work and dedictaion! :rock:

Hum.... I'm not quite sure that this is a problem with the sound pack or with your installation... Anybody else having this problem?

[Wildhawke11]

I dub thee Sir Philipp Thomsen.
Not played it as yet but i am sure from your previous work it will rock.
Thank You for all your hard work and again Thank You for sticking with the GWX.

Thank you Thomsen for this great sound mod! :up:

I agree with Schwuppes, the creaks appear too loud and too frequent. But it's nice to hear they are more varied than before. I think in real life these sounds were very rare or at least not very loud, else I think a destroyer would not have had a hard time to discover the submerged boat. In "Das Boot" Buchheim writes while under attack by a destroyer, that for minutes he did hear nothing except the water drops falling into the bilge and some of the crew whispering.

Don't get me wrong compared to the rest of your work this is just a very minor issue and I was never on a submerged boat, so I may be wrong.

Cheers!
Mr. Fleck

[Sag75]

Hi PT, thanks a lot!! it's a very nice improvment from your previous version. I like very much the destroyer sound when it comes over me.... And finally we have a long interior ambient sound!:up:

anyway i noticed what other people did, maybe the crackling sounds are too frequent..:hmm: I was attacked by DDs, and in silent running i was creaking a lot!:-?

anyway... GREAT JOB again!!

s

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Ok... I know what is happening... I've made a lot of changes, but my game is not working, my computer sucks, so I don't know how they sound like ingame. That's why I need feedback.

I'll be posting a fix for that, more space between creak sounds and tweak each one to half of the volume.

Will be uploading it in some hours! :up:

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Thomsen's Sound Pack V3.1 is online at my FileFront page!

The new version have very important corrections on the creak sounds:

1 - They now aren't so frequent, have a delay between items and plus a random delay over that.
2 - Their volume was cut down to half of the original amplitude, all 47 files.

Enable it via JSGME as the original sound pack.

THIS IS A COMPLEMENT TO THE SOUND PACK V3, NOT THE WHOLE FILE! For now I'll keep this as a complement, when I reach a acceptable point on this, I'll put together with the sound pack and upload as one single file. It's pretty large, 6 hours of upload, so doesn't makes sense to keep uploading all again each time I change something.

First enable the sound pack, then this on top of it, or replace the files into the original sound pack and enable it again.

I'll update post #1 with this aswell... :up:

Now you guys must test it and report back to BDU, as my game is not working, so I can't test it myself. I found that the reason that the creaks were so loud is that my volume was very low when I was producing them. Now I've set my volume to the normal I used to play the game, and it sounds more acceptable, but still if you're not satisfied, it can be changed again, that's why feedback is so important!

[Philipp_Thomsen]

I just want to thanks everybody here, I'm getting a lot of support, after only two days, almost 400 downloads, people are saying kind words and voting 5 stars for the thread rating.... This is much more then what I've expected... It's so good to see your hard work appreciated by the comunity, thank you all! :rock:

P. T., As always you have produced another GREAT sound mod, only had a chance to play it yesterday for maybe 2 hours and I know I didn't hear everything. When the engine room door opened while I was submerged didn't bother me a bit cause that gave me a chance to get rid of Benard for a while. I told him to go back to the engine room and tell the mechanics to work on the batteries cause they where making to much noise while running:huh: Thanks again for another GREAT sound mod.:rock:

Hi PT,

first of all I appreciate your soundmod, version 3 and the work you had with the mod.

Here are some remarks after testing it with German ears

The environment-part is very good. No doubt about this.

The speech-part is nonsense for German ears and brings the immersion-factor down to zero.

As a player of SH3 you normally have seen “Das Boot” and the voice of the captain is very well known in Germany. When nothing specific happens that guy is frequently speaking in your sound mod. And as you are the player and with that the captain, you are permanently listening to yourself. Many (women) love that.

Poor captain’s remembering-capacity is nearly zero. He repeats the sentences every five minutes and what he says, has noting to do with the specific situation. When you are surfaced he says: “We remain dived”. When no ships are in sight he talks about a ship that is not reachable or repeats something he just said.

When there is a radio-transmission, the dialog is constantly:

-Transmission terminated!
-We need the codebook!!
-Here it is.
-Sound of writing on a mechanical typewriter
-Captain, the message.

If you are ontime-acceleration, this dialogue can come every three seconds.

No further examples. I know, it´s a matter of understanding or not understanding the dialogue.

Is it possible to take out the captains voice as a special option for German players? That would raise the immersion-factor considerably.

Keep up the good work.

YOU GUYS REALLY NEED TO RTFM! :nope:

Read again the first post, the part about the ambient sound. You'll see that I've made a version without german conversation, for the german speakers. It's a pain in the ass to think about the issue, find a fix for it, upload it and some people say "hey, why don't you do this and that" once you ALREADY DID IT! :damn:

I understand german enough to understand what they are saying, or at least half of it. But I think more imersive to hear crew chatting than to hear absolute silence all the time... but to each his own! That's why I've created THREE versions of ambient sounds so you can choose.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Found another issue, thanks to asanovic7. The problem is with the collision sound.

The problem is that if the ship breaks, it sinks colliding one part with the other, and for each little collision, the game uses the same file from where the uboat is colliding. So I must cut down the part with the "actung, collision" of the german voice (which is a pitty by the way) so we don't hear it all the time even when small boxes and masts are colliding with eachother or the ship.

The game is so dumb sometimes... :damn:

I'm fixing that and I'll upload in half hour!

I NEED MORE FEEDBACK!

[Vader 1]

We saw this with every major ground breaking mod...which BTW I feel yours also falls within this group.. The modders go to great lengths to explain both in the forum and in the README FILE how they develop the mod and the logic behind it....then in the spirte of offering comment on said mod we mod user for lack of a better term feel compelled to bring up the very concerns or problems that the mods creater had IN FACT RAISED IN THE FIRST PLACE...HELLO.

A mod gets better by comment I think we can all agree on this but let it be an informed comment:nope:

BTW I think your version 3 is the best

[Philipp_Thomsen]

V3.2 UPLOADED!

Small fix on the collision_ship.wav. Removed the german voices from it, so it wouldn't be weird when hearing two british ships colliding.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

When there is a radio-transmission, the dialog is constantly:

-Transmission terminated!
-We need the codebook!!
-Here it is.
-Sound of writing on a mechanical typewriter
-Captain, the message.

The dialogue will be constantly something... constantly bip-bip-bip from morse code, constant tat-tat-tat from typewritter, constant anything you choose as sound for it. Even if you pic a sound from a porn video, you will hear "yes-yes-ah-ah-uh-uh-yes-yes" as sound. The game don't allow us to have a lot of different sounds for it, you guys need to remember that this game is very limited. The only thing we can choose is to make it as realistic as possible, and that's what I did.

If you are ontime-acceleration, this dialogue can come every three seconds.

The RADIO MESSAGE will come every three seconds, and whatever sound you've picked for it will be played each three seconds. If this is pissing you off, either disable the radio messages or pick a mute sound for the radio message or start playing on less TC. There's no other option.

No further examples. I know, it´s a matter of understanding or not understanding the dialogue.

That's not the point. The dialogue is very simple and even who don't speak german (like me) can understand what's going on. But what can we do? When we try to put realism (the radio message received sound) to work together with irrealism (time compression), it's impossible to reach an agreenment, it's impossible to make it nice and fluffy. Savvy?

Philipp the mod is great but i like to begin first with the 47 creak sounds how must i install ? just trow them in my sound file or must i do some more things in the conf. file?

[johan_d]

I had one creak sound repeating itself, it starter at 120 meters, and stopped at 60 meters, between repeated constantly. Was strange te note that it started and stopped at the exact depths.

[Wildhawke11]

Master Thomsen

Just a couple of points which i would like to see changed. I note the sub compartments are now in German, i myself would prefer they still be in English.
Now the BIG ONE

At the bottom of the menu screen instead of it reading *A FEW GOOD MEN* it now reads
*HOT WOMEN* With all respect meant, to me that just looks cheap and tacky. Otherwise i love the mod.

[Nuss]

Hi PT,

don´t bang your head too often into the wall. Otherwise you wont be able to finish V4 of your brilliant sound mod. Have OLC in mind and his many versions.

Now back to my mail. You wont believe it but I read your readme before I mailed.

The question, advise, remark (whatever) was, now in short form, to take the captain out of the “Das-Boot-chatter-ambient-interior-part” (version two of your three interior ambient parts). The crew-chattering is ok.

The second point was to avoid too long speech-sequences (f.e. new radio-message) as they get boring when occurring to often

So now you can bang your head again if you want.:damn:

All versions of my sound packs and updates are JSGME compatible. Just unpack them, throw them inside the "MODS" folder and enable it! :up:

V3 is the complete sound pack. V3.1 and V3.2 are both updates that require the original sound pack installed prior to.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

I had one creak sound repeating itself, it starter at 120 meters, and stopped at 60 meters, between repeated constantly. Was strange te note that it started and stopped at the exact depths.

Must be a problem with your machine. The longest sound has 19 seconds and for the game to loop sounds you gotta have sounds longer then 30 seconds. How much ram memory you have?

About the captains voice, that's an idea... :hmm: ... I usually try to hear his voice as part of the crew, but I don't know that much german, so it's easier for me. I'll think about doing that for V4.

As for the long speech sequences, the radio message received one is the ONLY repeatitive sound, you can confirm that. So it's only one sound to fix. It's not a problem with the sound itself, but with the exagerated flowing of messages you receive in game. You should be receiving one or two messages per day, not fifteen! That's why it gets so boring! Are you using any radio traffic mod? I don't think it increases imersion coz it's only blablabla messages, ships that are in some location, when in fact they are not there. Nothing useful really, so I try to keep my radio traffic as low as possible. If you want, I can try to make a sound to please you, a special delivery so to speak. Or you can try to use a short morse code sound that is compressed inside the sound pack's main folder.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Thanks for this great mod it is fantastic but i have one problem
i mis the interior sounds when i am in my sub how is this possible? someone know?
(i have red that the mod also has new interior sounds)

Some problem with your installation maybe? If you downloaded the sound pack correctly, decompressed correctly, put into the mods folder and enabled via JSGME correctly, you should be hearing the ambient sound.

Can you hear the other sounds, but not the ambient sound? How much ram memory do you have?

i hear the enginestartup (ctrl s) i hear crew talking when i sank a ship i hear crewmember saying "abwarten" when i want target ID and so on but NO AMBIENT SOUNDS (CREW TALKING IN BACKGROUND ETC)

That's very very weird... are you using gwx 2.1?

Can you hear the other ambient sounds? (there are three in the sound pack, you have to rename them)

And which original files you replaced with what? There's nothing to replace in my sound pack and updates, its all to be enabled via JSGME!

If you are sure that there's a ~170mb "ambient_submarineInterior.wav" inside sh3/data/sound, then you should be able to hear it...

i can hear the order 50 umdrehungen when i order silent running i can hear the crew on the deck say that there is being fired upon so i think it is all okay now this is what i did i installed radiomessage typewritter in JSGME my mistake I FORGOT:damn: but as you discribed the mod and all stuf related whit it i am not sure i hear everything i only want to know one thing What happens when a destroyer passes over and droppes charges at you what do you hear? you said every sound is changed ingame but that is not what i hear i hear a lot of new stuff but also a lot of old things so i will investigate further if i did everything correct

PT,

First, great work. Most of the sounds that I was replacing on my own for use with your version 2.0 I have scrapped in favor of your new sounds. I especially like the creaking sounds and the new ambient interior sound. Excellent work!:up:

One question...is the sound made when the deck gun fires "P02_$MGun_muzzle_flash.wav"? I plan on redoing this one a bit inclduing more reloading noises from an actual 105 and German orders being yelled during reloading. Right now it sounds a little weak for an 88 or 105 and the expended shell falling sounds too much like a small arms shell casing.

Thanks!

On your FAQ: ) There are narcissist songs in your gramophone folder and I hate hitler

There isnt a gramophone folder in the sounds folder in your download.

And finally the instructions: And also delete the folder "Library", from the mod's data folder. Deleting those will make

On your FAQ: There are narcissist songs in your gramophone folder and I hate hitler
There isnt a gramophone folder in the sounds folder in your download.

My mistake. V2 had a gramophone folder, but I decided to cut it out since the download size was already too big. With the gramophone folder, the download would be at least 500mb.

And finally the instructions: And also delete the folder "Library", from the mod's data folder. Deleting those will make
the mod work with the "jahowl kerr kaleun" after giving every order.

Hello Thomsen this is one great sound pack i am loving it BUT...no one else has Mentioned this so maybe it is only me .. when my radar picks up a contact i used to get the sound "ANSELL CONTACT" (not spelt correct??) but using your pack nothing. its not going to stop me using V3 but maybe a fix if possible.
Edited.. its ok i coppied the sound file's direct into the game files without any of the other files they all work ok

[Cmd341]
Name=WP_Target_nearest_ship
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F140002
Str=1052
Key0=0x53,Cc,"CTRL S"
Key1=0x53,c,"CTRL S"


One whichever commands_en.cfg you want to use, as this is the only thing that has been changed on the sound pack. This is related to the "diesel engine start sequence" when you press CTRL+S on the beggining of the mission. :up:

If I understand correctly, I must edit this file in SH3 data/cfg catalogue and after that enable your mod?

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Sorry Thomsen but ive actually want the "ya herr Kaleun" back.
Can you advise me how to do it please.

Thanks......

Jahowl herr kaleun is not realistic, boring and repetitive, but if you want it's easy to get it back.

Read the instructions.txt that is with the mod, you will find a step by step how to do it. Or read the first post of this thread.

Hello Thomsen this is one great sound pack i am loving it BUT...no one else has Mentioned this so maybe it is only me .. when my radar picks up a contact i used to get the sound "ANSELL CONTACT" (not spelt correct??) but using your pack nothing. its not going to stop me using V3 but maybe a fix if possible.
Edited.. its ok i coppied the sound file's direct into the game files without any of the other files they all work ok

So it's working ok now?

I recommend to anyone to ENABLE my mod via JSGME. Just copying the files is not recomended, you might forget something.

How to use your mod with Integrated Orders? There is conflict between these mods.

Nothing to worry about there, mate! V3 was made on top of integrated orders, you can enable without a problem! :up:

No... lemme explain again...

The only change that my sound pack requires is in line #341 as posted above. You need to choose with command_en.cfg you'll use (with other mods, or your own modified file) and add that line to the file, that's all.

In another words, no matter what commands_en.cfg you will use, as long as it's line #341 looks like the one I posted above. :up:

FINALLY SOMEONE THAT AGREES WITH ME! :rock:

To hear that same old voice after 5 years playing the game is a kick in the nutz!

And after watching a lot of german movies about uboats, I've never hear them say "jahowl herr kaleun", just the repeated order, just like in my mod!

But to each his own, right? That's why I've put in the instructions.txt how to get it back....

People need to learn to RTFM! :lol:

In fact on my sub if somebody even thinks "jahowl herr kaleun", their drinking from the

Hi PT!

I have a problem... I am a German player and I dont want the chatting, so when I rename the amb_SubmarineInterior2 and delete the "2" at the end of it... I still get the chatting in the background.

Please help... what am I doing wrong? I am in the middle of patrol right now... is this why its not working perhaps?

cheers!

PS:
in your first post of this thread you describe the files as "ambient_SubmarineInterior", however there is no such thing, there are only "amb_SubmarineInterior" files in the Sound Folder of your mod.

EDIT:

Its OK I fixed it... I had to disable, change the filename and then re-enable the mod again....

[onelifecrisis]

PT,
It'd be good if you'd make 3.3 compatible with the last version of OLCU; it looks like you used old versions of my menu.txt and command.cfg files when you made your compatibility changes, which means a few (very minor) things in OLC GUI Special get broken by your mod.
Cheers.

Superb mod Thomsen, but I had to do two things for playing - delete Cfg folder (interference with Integrated Orders mod as described earlier - I couldn't use binoculars & UZO shortcuts, editing manually with no succes) and Menu folder (interference with SH3Commander - 7th flotilla campaign bug, started at Guinea Bay instead of Konigsberg harbour).
After deleting these two folders I enjoy your work very much.

[boneman]

Dear mr Thomsen i enjoy your supermod ver very much but i have one problem i can not use ctrl s if i press it nothing happens (i should hear the engine start sequence)
for the rest everything works fine and i think after the OLC UBERMOD it is THE BEST MOD OUT HERE! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:sunny::sunny::sunny :
(it always worked but i did some mod switching) please advice awaiting your answer good friend

For every change you make, it's necessary to disable and re-enable the mod for the changes to take effect.

Actually I've used both files from OLC GUI 1.2.3. I didn't know that there was differences between OLC GUI and OLC U in those two files.

What you recommend me to do?

[Philipp_Thomsen]

It's very easy to fix this. Now that everything is working ok for you, go to sh3/data/menu and open en_menu.txt and change the line #1052 to:

1052=System check, diesel engine start

Then open the sh3/data/cfg/commands_en.cfg and edit it with the notepad, in line #341:

[Cmd341]
Name=WP_Target_nearest_ship
Ctxt=1
MnID=0x3F140002
Str=1052
Key0=0x53,Cc,"CTRL S"
Key1=0x53,c,"CTRL S"

Just copy and paste this over there. So there you go, you have the CTRL+S system start at the beggining of your patrol working with any version of commands_en.cfg and en_menu.txt, so by all means this will make V3 compatible with anything. :up:
