SH3.Sdl
 

This one is for the modders:

What exactly is contained inside the SH3.sdl file and why is it contained inside the sound folder? I've been getting into modding small files but I've wondered for a while what that file does exactly. Any answers are appreciated but I do hope for some detail rather than a vague description (in the case of if it is some crazy file with like a page long answer)

You can edit the file with Silent3ditor and you will see what is inside ;)

a surprize eh:hmmm: So this program you provided a link to opens the file then? with any luck I can figure this thing out then. Thanks

It is SH3's sound mixer file! you can adjust:
Volume
minimum and maximum distance that a sound travels.
Doppler
if sound loops or not
pitch
priority
For each of the sounds used in the Sound folder, these are the main ones shown.:DL

Thanks, thats good to know as I figured it could be anything but as it's in the sound folder I kind of figured it had to do with sounds. I downloaded that program and will look into it later.
