Solved it initially by removing your sh3.sdl file from the mod. I've since opened the file and lowered the doppler value of the DD_Engine.DieselEx entry from 100 to 0. No more crashes, and the rest of this mod more than makes up for the lost sound effect.

It's probably a hardware glitch on my side, but the solution to simulating increased engine noise near the engine room may be problematical on a few machines.

Thank you very much Capt. morgan i think this exatcly will help me because if you have 4 gb of ram and you had problem like i have i shall try to delete sh3.dll.

Which programm do you use to edit sh3 sh3 editor to reduce value of the engines?

Moin,

@d85:
sorry for the pain you have to endure. Try this,
  • disable the mod
  • open the MODS folder
  • browse to FM_NI/data/Sound
  • delete the embedded Sh3.sdl file
  • re-enable the mod
Thus you´ll have no sound. But if the problem is indeed sound related, you´ll at least be able to run the mod.

The update will feature new 3d settings, including reduced values, and a completely new approach to "move the sound sources". This hopefully will solve the problem for a lot of users.


@Uber Gruber:
sorry I was not able to help, mate. Don´t have a 64bit system at hand.
Thanks for your reports anyway.


Regards,
DD

I've had the same problem of d85...but solved in the same way...I've deleted the engine sound file from the folder(thanks a lot DD for the advice)and now the interior mod works fine!
Any idea of what parameters/files must be changed using
Swikas's s3d editor to have again the engine sound again operational?thanks in advance for the replies!


ps:I don't agree with the fact that some problems could be related to RAM disposal...I'm running XP service pack two,1 GB of ram,video card radeon HD4650 with 1GB of dedicated RAM(due to my pc still AGP),on a pentium 4 hyper treading tech and the mod works perfectly without any noticeable
slowdown.The important,it's my personal opinion,is having a good video card.

1) Disable the mod
2) Open MODS/FM_NewInterior_V1.0/data/Sound/Sh3.sdl with s3d
3) Find the DD_Engine.DieselEx entry (s3d has a search function)
4) lower the doppler setting from 100 to 0
5) Save the file, enable the mod, and show Tommy who really rules the waves.

Downloading now, thanks a lot!!!!!!!

By the way, it´s a long time since I don´t play SH3. I saw this mod is compatible with GWX3+OLC...

...what does "OLC" stand for?
