The dive sequence seems a bit out of place volume wise.

LOVE the new creeks, removal of the "Jahowl, herr kaleun" really wish that had been done sooner :yep:

Hope the feedback helps. Thanks Thomsen.

But consider that I'm playing this game for almost 4 years now, that "jawohl herr kaleun" was driving me nutz already. And besides, the voices don't match on the new mod. I have to find a new and realistic WW2 sound of "jawohl herr kaleun" to replace on the mod. Anyone have anything like that to help me?

Not wishing to appear to be throwing a spanner into the works, I do however have one small criticism, although this criticism in no way has anything to do with this admirable sound mod: the sound of the supercharged diesels firing up is music to the ears, but is there any way of modifying the diesel exhaust gas so that it belches forth and billows around the stern of the boat as the engines fire, as I am sure would have happened in real life?

Lemme see if I understand what you're suggesting... You wanna a cloud of black smoke going out of the exhausters when the engine starts, just like in real life? If so, I'm not sure it can be done, but sure as hell it would be killing! :rock: RUBINIIIIII, I NEED YOUR HELP HEEEEEERE!!! :lol:

I do recall that there is a tweak file or whatever in the exhaust mod that enables one to show oily exhausts caused by misfires and engine wear etc., but I am an absolute novice in these matters and fear dabbling with things I know little of.

I'm going for it! :up:

Any ideas?

I mean the radio operator has headphones on, I shouldn't hear the morse. If you can't make the typewriter "strikes" quieter then that's fine.

Got the idea! Working on it now! :up:

As far as the Yes sir file. Did they really say yes sir after each command or did they repeat the order given to confirm they heard it? What was protocol anyone know?

I think it was full of protocols with a new capitan, but once the crew had patrolled with him once or twice, I think that it was basically repeated orders. And besides, repeated orders sounds sooooooo much better. Do my sound pack have repeated orders? I dont remember... honestly... Im modding 90% of the time, almost never play the game.. :rotfl:
P.S. I love the two-way radio when switching torps. Very nice.

I like it too, thanks!

i am using my own command_fr.cfg file to keep my french kb setiings with OLC's GUI mod. Could you tell me which modifications you've made on the command_en.cfg so that I can reproduce them to my own .cfg file??? please :smug:

Thanks Herr Kaleun

U.S. and Royal Navy protocol is (was?) as follows:

Aye aye sir!

Naval response indicating that an order has been received, is understood, and will be carried out immediately. In operational situations, this is usually shortened to simply "aye." In constrast to "Aye Aye sir," a response of "Yes Sir" usually indicates that the person understands but is contemplating performing the ordered task at a later time or date.


Ships Captain: "Lieutenant, I need those reports by 1400hrs."
Executive Officer: "Aye aye sir."

Officer of the Deck: "Helm, make your course 149."
Helmsman "Making course 149, aye."

(From US web site)

The two "ayes", acording to the Oxford dictionary, mean: always/by all means/with certainty/yes. That is exactly what jawohl means in German. The first "aye" means an emphatic "yes" and is still used with this meaning in parts of the UK.

The second "aye" means "indeed", "for sure", as in:

"Aye, she's a bonny wench!"

(Shades of Long John Silver!)

But even with the extended radio message mod deactivated I still find the message received sounds difficult to appreciate. I like the morse, even though the radio operator would have earphones on. So my preference would be for just a short morse code sound and thats all......if thats possible then cool!

Still an excellent mod though.:up:
