Should I be hearing my own propellers?

[micheal1983]

Hey guys a quick two question:

#1. Should I be hearing my own subs propellers when under water? Ive tried all speed settings but I cant hear anything at 180 degrees, and I know this feature is modeled in SH4...

#2. I cannot get the hydrophone volume knob to work, I click all over the knob on the lower right side of the hydro station but nothing happens....

Anyways I would like to get these two issues sorted out and make sure my hydro is not busted before I put to sea for my first patrol. Thanks guys!

180 degrees is a historically accurate 'blind spot' for your hydrophones.

[micheal1983]

ok I just wanted to make sure because i know in SH4 I can deff here my own props spinning at 180 but I hear nothing in Sh3, guess it must have somthing to do with the way the hydro is set up on a german u-boat compared to an american sub...

I could definately hear my screws when they were on electric power. The hydrophone only seems to work when you are deeper than 10 meters. Maybe that is it.

And your mod-soup is so long I wouldn't know where to start considering those.

that is QUITE the long recipe for soup.

Your machine must be impressive. :salute:

[Sailor Steve]

Yes, you should hear your own propellers and engines. That's why it's a blind spot.

[Lonny007]

Hmmm I have the same problem, I use to hear my electric engines behind me when submerged, but now I do not hear them, I have installed a few mods and the V16B1 patch. If hearing the electric engines behind you at 180 with hydrophone is correct, I will have to find out what mod dcrewed this up.

Let me know if you find out anything, and I will let you know too.

Also when loading any saved game I hear a loud watch ticking sound, but if I switch views it goes away?
