Thank.

I think our vision of SH3 is similar, yes.:yep: I still love the blood. Some blood is good.:up: Which unlucky sailor will bleed? That is up to you Racerboy you the master!:rock:

Racerboy,

FYI.

I found that when I use your mod I lost some sounds and a few have become almost inaudible.

The inaudible ones are :

amb_submarineInterior.wav
Torpedo Tube opening.wav

The missing sounds are:

Beaufight.airplane.wav
Mosquitos.airplane.wav
WildcatGr.airplane.wav

Also the Marlet sound is gone. (I think it used the WildcatGr.wav)

Not sure if the "damaged" wavs for those planes are gone, haven't been able to damage any of them.

Nice mod but I have some problems with flares. One sinking ship fired around 50 flares after torpedo hit. Its was like firework :o
And I have sugestion for your mod. Can you make water spalshing from flooding holes on sub like in SH4 ?

It just keeps getting better RB....
Oh... yes on the flailing arms and legs!!!:lol:

Let me guess, you're runnning GWX? If so then they've added some new sounds to the Sh3.sdl and particles.dsd that aren't in my files. I will see what needs to be added to my files to add these missing sounds.
Amb submarine interior I decreased the volume on.
Torpedo tube opening I haven't touched yet. But I will be increasing it's volume in 2.03's release.
If anyone else has missing sounds please let me know. I need specifics like the above so I can find them and add them.

Which ship was this? If the maker of ship hasn't set some parameters correctly then yes, it's feasible that this could happen. I would like to know which ship this happened on.
The flares are tied to the splinter_explosion event. So if the ship has many items that are set to be splinter explosioned that haven't been 'destroyed' yet then anytime the ship 'explodes' all these items explode also and send up a flare.
I haven't been successful in getting this water splashing from flooding holes working correctly. I have made it, just trying to get it working right and correctly. We don't have the same controllers and all as in SHIV so I have to make work-arounds.

yes, yes I know. It was an idea of mine that needs to be refined further. Just thought I would share what I was working on that's all. That was test #2 of that idea.

see above in yellow.

I think it was Big Split Merchant converted from SH4 or stock GWX large or medium tanker, I cant remember :cry: (but its absolutely one of these)

by chance can you send me the files for this ship?

Yep, running GWX. (Isn't everyone?) Thanks for looking into this.

Hi RacerBoy, thanks for the reply.

I've located a couple of sources on the web for naval distress flares. The first was originally introduced in 1959, reaches approx. 350m and burns red for 40+ seconds:

The second is more modern, burns orange (but same principle as red) and burns for approximately 20+ seconds:

Personally, I would reduce the current size of the flare itself by about a third, and leave a slight glow around it - too much and it won't look right in daytime.

As for the reflection on the sea, at a height of over 350 metres there wouldn't be much surface reflection on a rolling sea. Perhaps a few flecks of dark red here and there as the light catches the swell.

Cheers!

Id like to say " A great job...2 thumbs up"...love the sounds, flares all of it...
although I have found depending upon where you hit the boat say with the deck gun the flare may go into the water...depending upon the explosion on board...hope this helps :up:

you're using v2.021 and this happened?
