I may have added the sounds and all but my team has done all the work in acquiring the sounds, providing feedback, testing, etc. Credit needs to go to you all. :up:

Yarrr....sounds TOO?!

Waaannt.....baaaadly.....

not only new hydrophone sounds but missing/new sounds above water also....i.e. fires, .......

Dude, stop that. This is just torture for those of us still playing the (very good) Alpha :up:

Can't wait to upgrade the alpha. Are we there yet? :)

Thats got to be worth the wait guys...hopefuly not to long. :lol:

Just a thought as your ablity to reshape the game is beyound our wildess dream would it be possible to eliminate the "NA she' going down" message as well as the red sunk ship icon from the map. I find that both are real immersion killers.

In real life the uncertainty of a ships fate was a huge unknown....do I shell it a few more times or should I send one more eel her way..

I have heard all the reasons why this can't work before however you seem to have broken every "its hard coded so it won't work " rule there is:up:

I understand you could remove the sound file from the NA but the message still appears and the red ship icon is the give away.


Thanks again Race for all your fine work..real life has me swamped but I am still looking for sound files

Vader

both requests should be easy to accomodate. I like 'em in fact. Uncertainty should abound on this one :yep:

I second that. Also, is it possible to not have the crews abandon their weapons as soon as the ship is destroyed? That's another dead give-away.

Both good points. If that works I'm all for it.

Yep, I am for this as well! This would be a single huge immersion improvement of this game!!! But in addition to "She is going down", the red icon, and abonding the weapons, shouldn't the crew cheering the kill be disabled as well? This way there would be no indication the ship is really doomed, no?

If you feel it necessary to do those things mentioned by Vader, could you release two versions? Why does every graphic mod have to turn into a "Realism" mod? I like that stuff the way it is. Sorry if I'm not "hard-core" enough for everyone, but some people find the game challenging enough as-is.

Sorry, we have hijacked this thread. :) Sure, it should be a separate mod.

I'm pretty sure that there is a thread...from way back when that deals with "She's going down"....I think it's just deleting the text from one of the files in
Data...folders...I'll look around. The cheering is when the "Fish" hits the ship....(Remember from Das Boat) they aren't cheering when she sinks...they cheer...."We Hit HER!!!"
If i'm talking about the wrong things...sorry for the misunderstanding.....:oops: ;)

Tested the Alpha yesterday with GWX. Awesome, just awesome! Smoke, fire, oil, explosions - everything looks so much better now - great work!
