Anyway, I have a question... the problem is that my sonarman caught a merchant hydrophone contact... so I started following the trail closing the distance. The problem is that I cannot seem to get the contact by hydrophones myself... at all.
It's pretty dumb - my sonarman can follow the contact flawlessly - on the surface, in big waves, at flank speed and at a long range. And now that I've closed to visual range, I can't get a tone manually at or below periscope depth, at silent running, engines off. The weather is rough, I'm playing at 100% difficulty and the game is set to very hard difficulty... And since my target is a lone modern tanker, I'd like to listen to her, actively range her... pull my first target to the bottom stealthly.
Why won't my hydrophones pick up on her song?  |
Ok now we are onto something . I had a contact but couldnt hear him either thru the hydrophones . Turned out to be a tanker and he had search lights . When he got behind me after i let my two duds off i could hear him thru the hydrophones . |
Count me in as well. Though I don't use the SuperMod per se, I do use the ROW sounds, and some of the merchants don't produce hydro sounds. I did notice that the sh.sdl file had been altered in the latest version, maybe something got fouled up there...?
