Trav mod question about a hydrophones

[avers]

Hey I've been playing sh4 w/ TMO+RSRDC +trav mod and I don't like how u need to be below periscope depth for the hydrophone to work so is there a way to change that so the hydrophone will work like it does in just TMO?

[HertogJan]

There's a thread out on the SH4 forum where they explain how to reverse/change it.
Can't remember which one tho, maybe someone knows and will post the link for you.

PLEASE SOMEONE POST THE LINK!!

Hello everyone. I hope you're all still enjoying Traveller Mod! Due to the interest, I've decided to release a small patch for Traveller Mod v2.6 that re-enables the ability to use sub hydrophones on the surface. It can be downloaded at the link below:

hey traveller I just tried it out and r u sure that hydrophones work on the surface cause I just played and it was only working under water but at periscope depth this time which is a good step but still is the hydrophone suppose to work on the surface? btw I tested it in a balao and narwhal class.

[avers]

does any one even care anymore? :wah:

[Traveller]

Hello again. Yes, people still care... but not all of us check this forum every day. :D

I'm sorry you are still having problems. I currently don't have SH4 installed to test my patch, but it should work. Did you start a new game, or are you testing it on a saved game? Pre-patched saved games might not show the changes after the patch is installed. Try the patch with a new game.

Also, if you want to make the changes yourself, you need to do the following:

1. Open the Sensors_sub_US.sim file (with the silent3ditor) located in the data/library/USSubParts folder. Now click on 46:SensorData, then click on 47. Now look for SensorType=Hydrophone, then look for MaxSensorHeight= -15 and change this value back to -1. Do the same for the following: SensorData 48/49, 52/53, and 66/67. Save then close the editor.

2. Now open the ordersbar.cfg file located in the Data/Menu/cfg folder. Look for the hydrophone section. Under that section you will find the lines Button1CommandToCheckIfIsEnabled=Is_Underwater. There are nine of these. Put a ; in front of each of the nine lines to disable them. For example:

;Button1CommandToCheckIfIsEnabled=Is_Underwater

Now save and close. That's it. :)

Thanx trav I'm testing it in a single mission does that show the changes?

Hey guys I just edited the mod and while it's working when I loaded up a single mission to test it I had to alt tab out because there was a message saying there is no button for special ability master engineer and medic I closed it out and the game worked but it keeps happening how do I fix that?

[avers]

Ok yeah I barely understood those posts.So to rephrase I tried out ur patch ,trav, and I tested it on a single mission and the hydrophone wassent working on the surface. I edited traveller mod and tested it in a single mission.The hydrophone did work on the surface, but when I loaded up the mission. When it said, "give em hell boys", I had to alt tab out. Cause 2 pop ups showed up saying there's no button for special ability expert engineer and medic. When I closed those the game did't close and worked fine ,but how do I stop those pop ups in the back? Cause it's annoying having to minimize the game every time.
