I'm having what seems to me to be an odd issue with this mod, when I start a patrol inside the harbor (instead of at sea via Commander) the Watch Officer "loses his voice" shortly after we've cleared the wharf and gotten 1/3, maybe 1/2 way, to the lock right in our path.

He'll call out the first few ship/plane sightings, and I get a "Jawohl Herr Kaleun" if I ask for the nearest visual contact, but at some point his voice goes away and all he does in either case is turn to look at me and his mouth moves but there's no audible speech. All the animation is there, but no voice.

I disabled everything except this mod and even tried it out on a fresh GWX install that I hadn't done anything else to at all, just in case I'd messed some files in some way I didn't know about... and it's definitely happening with this mod and nothing else. Even when I don't start through Commander, so none of the options or mods enabled that way are causing it.

Is this something that should be happening because of all the extra ships/noise around, or is it due to some limitation of my system, or is something not working right? Mostly I've been starting out from Wilhelmshaven, and I know that's an intense location in terms of noise and traffic. Also happened starting from Lorient the few times I started out there. I don't remember it happening the few times I started at sea when I first reinstalled the game and started testing out mods on my new setup, but then I'm not sure I was in the game long enough to notice on those test patrols.

I guess my next step would be to download the mod again and extract a fresh set of files, but I hate to do that if it's not a file corruption issue. All the other sounds and visuals seem to be fine, no noticeable lag, FPS perfectly acceptable.

System specs:

AMD Athlon II X2 240 2.8 GHz AM3 processor
ATI Radeon HD4650 1 GB PCIe gfx card
Asus Xonar DX sound card
Windows 7 64-bit
6 GB RAM
SH3 v1.4 + GWX3 Gold + 4GB patch

Thanks for any help &/or info!
