yes all sounds can be found in the sounds file under the data folder in your main directory where sh3 is installed.

I'm not sure but I think the game's sonar and 'phones are "controlled" by the sensors.dat file, not the .sdl file.

At any rate I use a modified Sh3.sdl file and it hasn't caused any problems, of course it may be that the modified version doesn't touch something that would.

I don't think they affect how it works, again I think there's a .dat file for AI sensors that controls it.

What you actually hear in terms of sounds generated (pings, etc.) may be affected by the .sdl file, but I'm not sure.

Not sure which thing you're asking about, actually. Are you having a particular issue, or wanting to change something and wondering how to do it?

Mind if I ask something hydrophone/sonar related as well?

Does the gramophone affect the sound of the sub? Does it create noise that destroyers can hear? I think it did in real life, don't know about sh3.
