BBC Radio 1939 to 1945 MOD
NEW! 08/13/08

This is an expanded version of BBC World. It adds events that take place from September 1939 to November 1941 that are not in the original BBC World MOD. If you have the older BBC World MOD and you do not intend to play the U-boat side prior to December 1941 or if you only play the American Side, you do not have to download this version. There are no new events added for the period from December 8, 1941 to the end of the war.

There are more British songs in the folder than in the original BBC World, so if you currently have BBC World and want to take advantage of the additional music, download the new MOD. If you do, you must remove (disable) the BBC World MOD and then enable this one. Do not try to enable this MOD over BBC world. JSGME will get a bad case of heartburn and a good chunk of your hard drive space will be gobbled up. I would recommend that you disable and the delete the original BBC World MOD in order to maximize your free HD space. It’s up to you.

The MOD is set up for JSGME. You must however, alter your radio.ini as follows:
(This is all in the readme file of the MOD)

Go to C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter Wolves of the Pacific\Data\Sound\Radio and open the radio.ini.
Add the following as your last entry to the radio.ini

[CHANNEL]
Name=BBC
Folder=BBC
Freq=200
Antenna=01.01.1939-01.01.1946: 51.45,-0.12:100000
MusicVolumeOnNews=0.01

If you already have a station over 200, please insert it or change the entry to a frequency 10 above your highest existing frequency.

If you are not comfortable editing the radio.ini, you can also download my Add Fred's radio stations Mod (Add_Radio_02-2008). It adds the entries for all of Fred8615's stations, Capt. Midnight's CBS Radio and of course the BBC. It also removes the radio track from Washington and adds some American patriotic music. Unless you download and enable those stations, you will get “dead air” on them.
Enable it with JSGME.

Download it http://files.filefront.com/Add+Radio+02+20087z/;9704031;/fileinfo.html (http://files.filefront.com/Add+Radio+02+20087z/;9704031;/fileinfo.html)


As with the original BBC World, the MOD adds the station, has British songs that play between broadcasts and the actual BBC news programs.

It has been created and tested using DigitalTrucker’s Radio Station Manager. A big “Thank you” to him for that jewel of a program. I couldn’t have made this without it.

Here is the download link for BBC 1939 to 1945: http://files.filefront.com/BBC+1939+19457z/;11485725;/fileinfo.html (http://files.filefront.com/BBC+1939+19457z/;11485725;/fileinfo.html)

It works with SH4 stock 1.4 or 1.5 and any of the major MODs, like TMO, RFB, RSRDC. The files are only additions to your Radio folder. It doesn’t alter any game files. You need to be in port in order to enable this MOD just to be safe.

It's here: http://files.filefront.com/BBC+World7z/;8751011;/fileinfo.html ,
but the 1939-1945 MOD has all the exact same events as in the original MOD plus the 1939-1941 events. The the 19-39-1945 version also has additional British music.

Regretfully no. His entire page is gone. fred lives near New Orleans and his power may still be out from hurricane Gustav.

Things sometimes change names when the original modder isn't the one to upload it to the site here:

BBC Worldwide (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=3584)

found over in the Sound FX Mods (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=cat&id=9) section

time can be cruel...

Thank you so much, I did not even think to check the download section. Getting old. Thanks again.

I'm downloading this mod again to double check it. But I believe this mod only covers the 1941-1945 time frame. At least that's all that shows on my original download in the events folder for the BBC World folder I already have. I don't know if the complete file is still available. It might have to be revised again.

I'm not certain which version this is, but in the "Downloads" section of the site, "SH4" under the "Sound FX Mods" is Florida Sailor's BBC Worldwide (https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=3584), thanks to Fred8615. It might match Page 1 here... :salute:

Can confirm, that the BBC download you pointed a spot light on, propbeanie, ol' chap... does not contain the entirety of the Florida Sailor's work;

'' BBC Radio 1939 to 1945 MOD ''

I downloaded it via the download link you provided & can 100% confirm it only starts from 07/12/1941 until the end of the war.

The revision of Florida Sailor's work, started off (am guessing here, since I can only go by what they posted in the very 1st post (#1) in the meat of that post) that it started with 01-03( :06: :hmmm: know that Germany started their offensive against Poland sometime around 01/09 to 03/09) roughly)/09/1939 & progressed from there until the end of the war was broadcast world wide.

Will still use this, in the mean time & hopefully someone who has this version ''BBC Radio 1939 to 1945 MOD '' can step forward & provide a clean copy of it.. so that those of us, who are playing the WDAD mod, can have proper music atmosphere musical wise, as well as visual wise... am still holding out hope that somewhere, there is some one or a group of others, working on setting to rights a British speech mod, to further enhance this mega mod youngling off on the right foot.

1 can only hope, any way... :yep:
