Which Sound do you guys use??

[fastfed]

I though Thompsons sound pack was the norm.. But I am realizing the more I use it (its good though) The more sounds I loose over time..

What are some other good options ? THANKS!

[Sailor Steve]

I use the Das Boot Sound Mod, plus a few extras I've picked up along the way.

Where'd you get it? And does it come with or work with GWX 3.0 Steve?

[Capt. Teach]

I use a soundpack of my own creation [of a sorts]. I took several different sound packs ... took the best of those ... combined them ... remixed almost every sound file in them ... and made my own custom sound pack thing. But uh, for german Sailor Steves Das Boot sound pack is a pretty nice one.

However, for SH3 ..... I believe you can just set the voices to german in setup or options ... its been a while since I have thought of it as I have mine set to german voices all the time.

I should have linked it. Sorry about that.

And a little fix:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=1528

You might want to download every sound mod you can find, since there are always new sounds out there, and they are easy to drop into the proper slots in the 'Sound' folder.

And any sound file works fine with GWX or any other supermod.

As Capt. Teach said, be sure the 'Voice' option is set to German.

[fastfed]

WOW! Thanks for the tip! I had no idea I was to set the voices GERMAN.. I don't speak a lick of the language but, I don't really need to know the words as I can tell by the tone :)

Thanks again!

Do I have to redo the install to set it to german??

No sir, I am sure you don't have to re-install to set it to german. I believe though ... you might have to select that at the start of a career when you create the career (for SH3). I have however, been known to be mistaken but I think that is correct. I'll check it tomorrow and post the particulars ... it is pretty late.

:salute:

When you boot the game up select German sound and English text in the options screen

I simply use the sounds that came with GWX plus a few tweaks of my own.

[Redbear]

I use a customized sound pack myself. There are so many great sound mods out there, it's best to try them out. I think you'll find no single sound pack gives you your preference for every sound, so your best bet is to mix-and-match individual sounds.

And the subtitles tell you everything you need to know.

[Jimbuna]

:hmmm:

Huh?

Not again, aaaaaaargh! :rotfl2:

[U777]

Does this fix the issue in default GWX where the crash dive background sounds cease when the CE announces "current depth 10 meters"?

[Sailor Steve]

With DBSM the file plays all the way through.

[U777]

Awesome, thanks!

[reignofdeath]

Do I treat DBSM and the fix as normal mods (Putting in folders in the MODS section for JSGME) or just copy straight into the base folder?

All the ones I found so far are, into the mods folder and then JSGME ready.

[reignofdeath]

So I put the DBSM and the Fix both in seperate folders and put them into the MOD section but Im not sure if Im getting the right sounds?? every time I click on the CE for example and give him an order i get (Yes Captain[In german of course]) and then he calles out what I ordered (Dive, etc etc) I have it set in German and it still sounds like the same monotonous stock tones, what all sounds does the DBSM include??

Both are JSGME-ready, but I like to do a direct install.

That's not right. With DBSM there are no "Jawhol, Herr Kaleun"s, not one.

DBSM changes about 70% of the 'Speech' files. When you call for periscope depth it should go directly to Jurgen Prochnow announcing it, and then a full dive routine combining sounds from the stock game and sounds from the movie.

Just double-checked - my bad. Once you open the zipped folder you will find a folder labeled 'DBSM for SH3'. Inside that are a couple more folders. The 'DBSM' folder goes into JSGME, NOT the outer 'DBSM for SH3' folder.

The other folders contain a couple of alternate sounds. Every time a depth charge hits the water you'll hear splashes and Hinrich saying "WASSERBOMB!" Every time a torpedo hits you'll hear Lumprecht telling the off-duty guys it hit, them cheering and him silencing them.

I got tired of hearing them every single time, so the alternate files change those to a blank file for the torpedo hit and just the splashes for the depth charge launch. The bad news is you have to copy and paste them to all nine of the 'Speech' folders.

Also please read all the readmes at least once. They tell what the different files do, and how they've grown, but most especially give credit to the guys who made the original for SH2.

[reignofdeath]

ahh I think I know what I may have did wrong because the download was zipped and I unzipped and got a single file for each. I bet I gotta rename them with .exe or something?

just checked and its definately not right. each download( The fix and original) show only one file with .7z at the end. ??

Same with my Hitman Optics mod as well as my life boat mod, neither show in the game?? and they both have .7z's at the end

Okay, I saw in the other thread that Jimbuna turned you onto 7-Zip? Have you got it sorted out yet? If not then http://www.7-zip.org/

Use it to unzip the folder to either the desktop or make a new folder. Open the 'DBSM for SH3' folder and put the 'DBSM' folder into the game's 'MODS' folder and use JSGME to enable it. Then you can do the same with the 'Fixes' folder.

It is possible to install it permanently and directly, but I don't want to confuse you until you're ready.

[reignofdeath]

Lol yes it sorted it out Im in the middle of a patrol so Im not going to bother enabling the sounds yet but I shall do so! Thanks guys :yeah:

[reignofdeath]

okay I posted just a sec ago about my DBSM not working. however after enabling in JSGME this is what I found, a folder called DBSM outside of the "data" folder for the game, which contains a SOUND folder. well this DBSM folder has SOUND inside of it, with all the DBSM sounds. now I could manually put them into the other sound folder, but I still want to keep the files so I can vanilla the game if I want . secondly I cant find the fix folder .

I'm sorry but I haven't got DBSM installed but Steve should be along in 4 or 5 hours, I'm sure he'll get you sorted.

It looks to my like you need a little tuition/advice on file structures.

Don't worry, many of us have been in this position before you.

[reignofdeath]

Lol hmm I just may, Id like to be able to sort these problems out on my own instead of posting umpteen threads :rock: :cry:

As I carefully said in post #20, open the 'DBSM for SH3' folder and move the next folder in, 'DBSM' into the MODS folder. That contains the correct path for JSGME to follow.

[reignofdeath]

Sorry, I was tired and kinda oblivious of that :) I figured it out and got it working. however Im not quite sure I like it just yet but I shall give it a try once I bring my boot back unto port after patrol.

Harbour sound mod
Sonar sounds mod
Ultimate Aircraft sound mod

[Herr-Berbunch]

Does the DBSM mod shut that bloody telegraph bell up! It seems to ring twice as loud as anything else, my missus thinks it's time to wake up!

[Sailor Steve]

Ultimate Aircraft sound mod
That one's only good if like the real sounds of the actual planes.




:rotfl2:

It's the best! :rock:

:yep: The simple solution.

And yes...I mean no, DBSM doesn't have that.

[Herr-Berbunch]

@LiveGoat - you make is sound so obvious, it should be titled so idiots could understand it :O:

@Steve

Do you mean yes, DBSM doesn't have the telegraph ring?

Or do you mean yes, DBSM doesn't have the no ring mod?

Or do you mean no, DBSM doesn't have the telegraph ring?

Or do you mean no, DBSM doesn't have the no ring mod?

Or do you mean.... :doh: ...just use the mod and shut up Herr-Berbunch :yep:

I was thinking about asking the RAF & USAAF to fly vintage WW2 airplanes over head for the full on real sound but I get the feeling they may think I'm nuts. :har:

[Sailor Steve]

@ Herr-Berbunch: At the risk of making us both crazier than we already are, I'd go with "All of the above". :D
