Thx for your work. Works great!

Awesome...gonna install it now.

thanks!:D

Haven't found anything on Uboats yet. But, many of the technologies were the same.

The Fleet Type Submarine, Navpers 16160, is the first in a series of submarine training manuals that was completed just after WW II. The series describes the peak of WW II US submarine technology. June 1946 http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/elect/chap11.htm

A. MOTOR ORDER TELEGRAPH SYSTEM 11A1. Description. The motor order telegraph system consists of 2 separate electrical circuits. The starboard circuit is designated 1MB and the port circuit, 2MB. Electrically both circuits are identical. The system is operated on 115-volt, 60-cycle, single-phase, alternating current. Each circuit receives its supply from the a.c. bus of the I.C. switchboard through fused switches. The purpose of the motor order telegraph system is to transmit electrically any desired orders for the direction and speed of the propellers from the transmitting stations located in the conning tower and control room to the maneuvering room and to repeat those orders back to the transmitting station from the maneuvering room.
The circuits are controlled through rotary switches on the action cutout switchboard. One switch selects the conning tower or the control room as the transmitting station for both 1MB and 2MB circuits. Two more switches select either the conning tower, control room, or both, as the receiving station for the repeat back orders from the maneuvering room. One of these 2 switches is for the 1 MB, the other for the 2 MB indicators.

The conning tower and control room units consist essentially of a type "A" transmitter and pointer, a type "M" indicator and pointer, 2 sets of contacts for bell-ringing circuits, and necessary operating gears. The assembly is mounted in a case.
The transmitter is operated by a knob type handle fastened to a shaft on the front cover of the instrument. This shaft is connected to the transmitter rotor by means of a positive engaging clutch. A star wheel mounted on the transmitter shaft holds the transmitter in the desired position by means of a spring loaded main bell contact actuating lever. This lever also operates the contacts for the bell signal at the indicator station. The bell signal rings whenever the transmitter is being moved from one position to another. Auxiliary contacts for the bell signal are operated by a push button on the cover of the instrument. They are connected in parallel with the contacts operated by the star wheel. The auxiliary bell-ringing circuit is energized at any time the push button is operated. The indicator pointer is connected directly to the rotor of the indicator through an extension shaft. The maneuvering room instruments are similar except for an additional mechanism consisting of a cam mounted on the transmitter shaft which operates a contact for wrong direction warning. These contacts are connected with contacts on the reverser levers of the main control cubicle. If the reverser levers are moved in a direction opposite to that indicated by the transmitter pointers of the maneuvering room instruments, a visual and audible signal informs the operator of the error.

I'm working on the Rudder Angle Indicator System now and will post it shortly.

I thought too myself ok lets see how good Mr TiKigod is in the sound modding department.

Answer: :rock:

Here is another video with two more actual uboat engine telegraph sounds. The one in the middle rings once when its moved to "Tauchen" which translates to "dip". Then the one at the end rings two times but, you can't see what is causing the ring or even if it is the telegraph. But, the bell sounds like the first.

EmeAzul

I am also interested in an English Version.:yep:

Here is a longer version of the video (but, I don't think its the full version) The resolution is smaller and its in french too.

I doubt I will be doing a English version anytime soon. It took me about 3-4 hours just to edit all the files just for the german version. There are 9 different voices you have to edit. Each voice is about 30 files. So that's 270 files you have to manually convert from .ogg to .mp3, mix with an .mp3 sound editor, then covert back to .ogg format, and then rename to save. Forget that @#$! :D Uboats are for deutchlanders anyway. What do you think this is? U-571?!

Swap the Speech and Speech_En folders and you'll get German voices with English text. Works fine for me.;)

This sound pack activates your Engine Order Telegraph to make it sound like a real authentic uboat telegraph like the one posted here at 0:46-0:48 seconds:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNP4ca2mMao

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y14...sTelegraph.jpg

It includes:

-An authentic uboat bell and working chain/gear noise that is synchronized with the 2-D and 3-D gauges.

-The bell turns off when rigged for silent running (only the telegraph handle gears are heard when speed is changed)

-Bell Chain/Gear sound effect is directional. You can hear it from its origin anywhere in the uboat.

-Complete Pack for all German Voices. (It will not work if you are using English voices)

-Does not alter the original voice of the CE (keeps lips in synch with the 3-D model)

-Compatible with all modded versions of SH3 and easily enabled with JSGME.

-Maintains .ogg compression (mono) (will not cause SH3 to crash.)

-Makes an excellent addition to FLB Sale's 4 Dial Slideout Sim Feeling Mod!

-Mod can be enabled in port or at sea! No need for waiting to return home! Apply it now while on patrol!

As usual you always come up with something kool Tickygourd. :p

Okay, easy with those pitchforks.....I tested this out last night and, well, the bell ring sound from the bridge is very loud. Now this could be my sound card (SB-XFi) or it could be something else. Eitherway, I'd like to keep using the mod so is there a way I can turn that particular sound down ?

Many thanks, Hans.
