SUBSIM Radio Room Forums - View Single Post - Sound Question ... SH IV

BernieP2 · 01-12-12, 10:27 AM

I've just encountered (and screwed up the attack) a large (huge?) convoy on the west side of the passage between the Sulu Arch. & Borneo Island. 20+ ships and 6 escorts - mid 1944.

When I played SH Commander's Edition (many long moons ago) ... I stayed away from anything with over 3 escorts, but this being SH4 TMO2.5+RDRDC I thought I'd try it once.

Well on the initial approach at 300 feet from head on, rising to periscope depth I was attacked (golly gee), but never heard depth charges or explosions, just suddenly damage reports. In SH-CE there was no doubt about when you were being hit (the screen shook - n.b. how did they do that anyway?) but just now in SH 4 -1.5 there was no noise, just suddenly damage reports ...
What gives , do I need to add/change a sounds mod?

Any help, suggestions, etc, would be appreciated.

Thanks

Playing at 85 % realism, no helps only not manual targeting ... isn't that what the XO and WEPS are there for?
