here is how, most likely, you can test it:

take a merchant/battleship... blow it's engine or screw off so it can't move... 1 torp to the side... wait for a very while (TC16 ftw!) and whatch.. If it repairs itself - hit it again. Or it will sink and before that will, most likely, fire off the flare.

Hit a battleship in an ammo magazine and one torp should sink it. Ya gotta find the sweet spot. There should be one under the 2 forward turrets, or there abouts.

I just ran across a task force with a Royal Sovereign battleship in it and it took me 4 torpedos to sink it. Tho I have sunk Queen Elizabeth battleships with only 1 torpedo... in Scapa Flow at anchor and at sea moving.

depends on what exactly you are looking for. And which sounds you do not hear.

the game's main sound file Sh.sdl contains all the information. The problem starts when multiple mods overwrite it, effectively disabling the previous mod's changes, if they were not modified to fit each other.

TDW made a tool to edit and compair this file, which you can find on this forum, download and see from there.

I can hear the main sounds, I just cant hear the sound of distress horns, and whistles. Mentioned in the "I want sound on a ship!.txt". :/

Sorry to be a pain.
