Question re. hydrophone

[limkol]

How do you turn the volume of the hydrophone up and if possible, reduce the background noise in the hydrophone room when listening to the hydrophone? Is there a cfg file I can adjust?

The volume switch does not work.

I'm using NYGM and Thomsen's sound mod.

Thanks in advance :salute:

Hi,

Here's the useful information I got from Fubar:


So open your 'commands_en.cfg' using notepad or similar text editor.

Scroll to line.....

[Cmd146]
Name=Change_hydrophone_volume
Ctxt=1

now edit it to this

[Cmd146]
Name=Change_hydrophone_volume
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x5A,s,"Shift+Z"

Now save. This will now make your 'Shift+Z' key binding raise the hydrophone volume.

If you need a different key combo then you need the Decimal key value of your required keyboard key and the HEX conversion table. then just follow ronios helpful instructions.

If I can do it anyone can

MOST IMPORTANT B4 YOU START :

Backup your commands_en.cfg !!!!!!!!!!

For what it's worth I am using this method on a full on GWX install along with a ton of other mods (list available on request) and the Shift+Z does not conflict with any others.

The above method cut out most of the background noise for me and helped a lot (thanks to Fubar).
Hope it helps you too.
