HELP! Raduz's Hydrophone Hunting Tutorial Question

Wigabee · 01-30-12, 07:46 PM

Hello to everybody, I have an urgent question about Raduz's hydrophone hunting tutorial from way back in 2007. I am running GWX 3.0 (Gold) and in part of the readme about putting the files in the right places, the following is stated....

"Copy SH3.sdl to the SH3/data/sound or, if you have modified this file and you want to keep your settings,
use the SH3 file analyzer to change the "Ambient hydrophone ---- Wave-amb.Hydrophone.wav" volume to 93
(SH3.sdl, line 2989"

Since this mod was put out when GWX 1.3 (?) was out it suggests that I should copy SH3.sdl under the sound file. I noticed that I already have this file under ''sound'' AND, this file is not included in the download. I'm not sure if the mod will run fine with the file that I already have or if the mod is completely obsolete by now. I also noticed that two out of the four training missions don't seem to run and crash to the desktop. Any help at all on this topic is very appreciated and I hope to hear back soon.

The mod is made for a (completely) different unit database. I remember that the Ammoship of 1.01 or 1.02 got a diffent ID number in GWX 1.03. That was the cause of one or 2 of the crashing missions. You should read up the thread belonging to the release of this mod.

But with GWX 2.1 and 3 all compatibility went out of the window because more units have been added. So this mod would need to be redone. Some ships might work but no garuantee.

This Hydrophone Tracker program works very well:

It is a standalone program so you have to run it along with SHIII or, as I do, run it on a laptop next to my desktop.

Salute !!!

Thanks Pisces for letting me know about that. It's too bad that it's obsolete now, it was a great idea. Andrewsdad, great program! I'll have to try that!

There is a new Hydrophone speed table for GWX 3.0 made after Raduz mod.
However this is based on the original GWX 3 sounds not the changed sounds from the Raduz mod.
