Kpt. Lehmann posted a mod within the last couple of months for the hydrophone hearing impaired. You can probably search for it and find it or maybe he'll post it again.

Kpt.'s mod included two things: a silent amb_hydophone file and another section to boost the hydrophone sound. The mod was set up so you could use the mod enabler included with GWX.

Now, I deleted the boost part of his mod and I only used the part that changed the amb_hydrophone to complete silence. Works great for me. One note: when you go to the hydrophone station while surfaced, you will have complete silence. When you go to the station while submerged, you will hear the electric motor sounds. I usually cut the electric motors to obtain complete silence and then rotate the dial to look for distant contacts. This really helps the low volume, distant contacts stand out.

Hope this is helpful.

Note: this silent amb_hydrophone file is the same file I used to replace the amb_SubmaineInterior. I merely changed the name of the amb_hydrophone mod to Silent amb_SubmarineInterior mod and changed the name of file within to amb_SubmarineInterior. Then put this new mnin mod in the Silent Hunter Mod folder and used the mod enabler to install.
