I do not have a file that say's 'Radio.ini' !!!
Perhaps this is the missing file, although i did empty my SH5 / sound / radio file after realising the mod did not work the first time, i dont remember deleting this....perhaps i did

Having said that, after deleting all, what i thought to be Grossdeutscher Rundfunk related files except 'noise.ogg' and moving the Washinton file to my recycle bin (and thankfully not clearing from), i was only left with the said 'noise.ogg' file in my SH5 / radio folder.....and if i remember rightly, i had a small gaming session after this and noticed i had lost the 'tuneing' noise!!!

Unless you reckon otherwise, it looks as though i ditched the required file. i.e this Radio.ini file.

Please tell me i dont have to re-install the whole game and mods again

It is the radio.ini file. He does not have "hide extensions for known file types" unchecked in his folder view options.

To answer one of your original questions...this is what you should see in the default **\Silent Hunter 5\data\Sound\Radio folder

Thanks, i think i've sussed it.

I have the 'Washington' / 'noise.ogg' / and radio file, though mine just says 'Radio' not 'Radio.ini' but looks the same, but when you opened your 'Washington' file, you get two files:

Events
Radio_track.Wav

I have only got 'Events' !!!!

[WillyVic]

The radio_track.wav is in the stock game. I do not know it would matter if it isn't there. It is a music file.

What operating system are you using Poacher? EDIT: Never mind.

If using Win 7 click your start button, type folder options in the box, select folder options from the list, click view tab, scroll down and uncheck hide extensions for known file types. This will give you the .ini/bmp/jpg/txt/etc for your files.

If using Vista or ealier go here: http://filext.com/faq/file_extension_information.php

Hope this helps a bit.

You said you have it "sussed". Can you now hear the music and such?

Thanks,

I did as you said (im using W7 x64 by the way), and now it reads 'Radio.ini'

Sorry, i thought i had it sussed because i was missing the radio_track.wav file, but i think i deleted this beacuse it was the "Silenthunter theme tune" which i did not need...the answers no, there is no difference, unless changing the hidden file to Radio.ini makes it work? i have not tried.

[WillyVic]

May sound silly but try it with your sub at a dead stop (no engines running) and turn your sound way up. You said the radio was in fact tuning to the frequencies but you just couldn't hear them. I know if my engine sound is high i have difficulties hearing the music.

On a side note, I downloaded that same sound pack, installed with JSGME, and it worked here.

The radio file is the ini file. What you have as far as events and nothing else is the stock set-up. If you want you can drag some .ogg files or .wav music files in there. Not the events folder but the one with the Radio_track.Wav file.
