Default U-Boat Battle in the Mediterranean sound problem.

Hello there.

Whenever i start new game i get this very loud sound (kinda reminds me of engine sound) and it lasts for like 4 seconds. Its even so loud that it f'ed my headphones up - no kidding. I always got headphones on loud and when i started new game this sound hurt my ears badly and it was so loud that my headphones now crackle... How to get rid of this annoying bug ?

Thanks!

I'd uninstall UBBitM and install GWX instead.

Seems like turning the sound down for those few seconds would be the easy solution.
As long as it is the only time you hear that.

That Med add on is better than stock SH3 but you might consider the suggestion to install GrayWolves 3.0 Gold.

Things have come a long way since that was made in 2006 and GWX3 is the best thing available in any subsim to date.

The critical error most people encounter with the "battle in the med" expansion pack

is the critical error they made in purchasing it to begin with.

i highly suggest you remove the battle of the med disk and place it into the microwave shiny side up and nuke it for about 6 seconds for a cool miniature light show.

then, install regular SH3 patched to version 1.4b and install GWX 3.0

PS.

Watch out what you say

I will consider that you received it as Xmas present ... because the fact that we don't like X1 software and their product, doesn't mean that we tolerate in any way piracy. Not even to pirates themselves, as we refuse to act like they do

In terms of the wierd sound, it may be to do with proximity to anti-sub nets (i think that's the cause anyway) at least, this sometimes happens when loading a savegame - the sound really is awful! (it seems to appear in all versions of the game, but only quite rarely) So it might be a good idea to always keep your headphones low until everything's loaded - just in case.

Enjoy GWX, the game is improved 100%!
