Adjusting Sounds in OM

banjo · 10-03-09, 12:06 PM

Using OM 705-715, patch, OMGEU, patch--

I would like to increase volume of torpedo tubes opening/closing and torpedo launch. On my system I can barely hear the launch and the tubes opening not at all. Having played TMO like forever I am very fond of hearing those sounds clearly.

I tried increasing the volume of those sounds by 25% using Sound Recorder on the Torpedo Tube Opening and Torpedo Tubes wave files located in SH4/Data/Sounds, but it made no effect I could hear. I did save the changes btw.

Can anyone tell me the correct way to adjust those sounds?

Thanks

You could try copying the TMO files over to OM. Sound files are easily swapped in and out to ones liking.

Happy Hunting!

Ah Wilcke, what a resource you always are. Thx. I'll try that.

Hmmm......I got the torpedo launch sound now, but still nada on the torpedo doors. I'm stumped.

Yeah, your stumping me, on that one, I would have to go into my files and look and right now I am at work. Maybe someone can drop by and give us the file name for that one.

In my TMO install under data/sound - I found "Torpedo tube opening" (doors opening) and "Torpedo_Tubes" (launch)... is that what you need, sir?

Akula, thanks, but no. Those two files exist in Data/Sounds and work just fine when clicked on. However, the torpedo tube doors do not sound within the game. As Wilcke suggested, I even imported that file from TMO and still no joy, even though the sounds work fine in TMO.

I think there must be a command line buried somewhere that isn't asking for the torpedo tube wave file. In any case, Lurker said he'd look into it when he has a chance.

Ok... but I imported those sounds into the game myself (liked them better than stock myself after hearing them) - I think the torpedo launch wav went off as I loaded a saved game... but it was a slow night for targets so I never had a chance to hear the doors. I will be paying attention if I get a chance to play tonight.

edit: yer right, banjo... no tube door sound. Never knew what I was missing... and it was so obvious. LOL
