Default Streamlined install

The streamlined version works partially, but could be a bit of a nightmare depending on what other mods you have installed.

I have TMO 1.7, with RSRDC_411, then OpMonsun.
I used the above linked method (thanks Hitman) to overwrite speech folder 1 with spax's german speech and edited the crew data files to refer to speech folder 1 for the german crews.

Unfrotunately, as also mentioned above, there are a number of other files in the sounds folder that also contain speech. It's simple enough to create yet another mod package to overwrite these when you want to campaign as a U-Boot Kaleun, and only takes seconds to install as there are only a few files.
This does create a number of dependencies on the different packages, so you have to be careful installing and uninstalling - e.g TMO has a speech file to overwrite, and several sound files, but I must say I'm impressed with JSGME's ability to "nest" packages and recognise dependencies, so it's fairly simple to do.

The ideal would be to have generic sound files, I'll have a look to see if I can find any, to enable a one-stop package that allows campaigning as either US or German without the need for swapping sound files around. If anyone has some, let me know - I'm ok at packaging stuff, but anything vreative is way beyond my feeble brain.

I'd like to add a huge thankyou to all the modders that have made this such a fantastic game, and to the helpful people on this forum who share some of the characteristics of seafarers in their willingness to lend a hand.
