I have been looking into modding this myself as I too enjoy the german voices when playing in German subs. While I, for the time being, will just rename the speech folders when I want german, I feel that is really low-tech. I would like to incorporate a toggle in the sound options. Besides the speech file, there is a .cfg file in SH3 that sets a numeric value of 1 for english voices and 2 for German, and 3 for French. I copied that file over to SH4 as well as the speech folder with the german voices. I simply have to find a place to put a toggle switch to set the value of voices to 1 or 2 and then make it all work. One more thing, in the main folder, there are two files called sound.act and shsound.act How do I open them and what do they do. I tried moving the ones from SH3 to 4 and I had no sound, so they have something to do with the sounds, but I don't know what.

I am only a low level modder though. I dealt mostly with sound files and very small graphic changes in SH2 and 3. I don't know how to use photoshop at all, and that is what I have to open DDS files. So if any of you expert modders and photoshop artists could give me some pointers I would really appreciate it.
