Hydrophone Questions.

Blacksmith · 08-10-14, 04:00 PM

Hi all,

I would like to first say that my skill level at this game is probably a 1 out of 10. I usually have no idea what I'm doing, but have decided to try out a campaign using Sober's Mega Mod.

On the way to the harbor in Poland, I run across smoke on the horizon at bearing 020. I dive down to periscope depth, go to full stop, and try to listen with the Hydrophone. I do a 360 degree scan and hear a loud noise at bearing 150. I check with the periscope, and see nothing. Can anyone tell me what that was that I heard?

Video: https://vimeo.com/103075749

Also, my hydrophone man appears to be deaf. He will not follow any contact, nor will he give me a range to contact with the sonar. Is this how it's supposed to be with Sober's Mega Mod?

Hi Blacksmith

The hydrophone will have a much bigger range than what you can see through any optical device.

It is not unusual for you to take over the sonar and hear things but does not get reported by the sonarman when you ask him for the nearest contact.

This is not Sober's fault.

Someone might chip in with a better explanation.

As you say your understanding is not good you might find this link a help.

I was not trying to say that at all, I just was letting people know what mods I was using. The hydrophone man not following contacts has been a problem since I re-installed the game and modded it. He won't follow contacts that are at close range. He will always say "No sound contact." I may need to re-install the game or re-install the mods. I'm assuming something was installed wrong.

There was also a contact in the video at bearing 020 that you can barely see, and you can barely hear as well. The sound at bearing 150 was way louder, and actually made me think something was really close to me.

Hi Blacksmith

Apologies I did not mean it to sound the way you took it.

I would suggest you post your mod list.

I do not think it is a game installation problem?

In “JSGME”

Go to “Tasks”

Go to “Export activated mod lists to”

Click on “Clipboard”

Paste to your Post.
