I've got two installs of SH4, one is version 1.4 and the other is 1.5 and they both have all the approiate speech files yet I still have the bug.

Edit: Ooops...both are 1.5

....But i do definately have the files!

You know, it's weird. I have been through these files over the course of several years many times and always saw those particular files (man the Deck/Flak guns).
Now, just to make sure, I go into the data/sounds/speech(I guess) and veeola,...they're gone! Just those two, maybe more but I don't know right now. All I know is those two are missing for sure.
Now, I'm trying to locate a fresh speech folder somewhere in my bacup files so I can at least stick'em back in there.
My point to all this is, if the crewman can say "yes sir", then dang it, he can say "Man the bloody Flak gun!". Even if it's a bug, this should be able to be fixed because the speech is responding, just with the wrong file.
There are other speech files that are there that have never been operational and I don't expect them all to come around, but the precious few that did work, we don't want to lose.
This is my essay for the week. No grading please.
I may ask someone to post the two ogg files if possible if I cannot find them. EDIT: I found them. All the original speech files (it seems anyway). So we'll see if I can enable at least the ones we've heard before.
Thanks
