Dark where can i with your permission of course obtain your sdl editor app, thanks again

You can use S3D to edit .sdl files (and a whole lot more):

it's available freely in the SH5 mods forum: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...96&postcount=1

It works with SH 3/4/5 .sdl files

I don't use S3D so don't even ask me about it

Remember that the .sdl file just registers sounds with the game (and how the game uses the sound). If you register new sounds in the .sdl file you'll have to invoke them by adding SoundSource entries (usually to .dsd files) tied to the object/effect needing/wanting sound.

i was just thinking of combining already multiple .sdl so i can use them together. I dont want to make a new sdl file i just want to make an sdl file that has all the sounds incorporated togther. Are you saying that i need a .dsd in order for the game to correctly understand the new combined list?

nope If you use my app just merge the two sdl files together. Keep merging sdl files till you get your 'master' sdl file When you merge with my app it will add all the missing entries into the other sdl file.

I just want these .sdl to work together.
Depth charge shake- has it own .sdl
FM interior 1.0- same thing
ACes multimod compatability 1.6- own .sdl
Aces st. nazaire 5.1 -own sdl
Thomsens sound pack v3.2- own sdl
WAC 4.1 animated-own sdl
WAC interior start-sdl
Extras for wilhelmshaven-sdl
Damage mod 30_71- has its own sdl


All these files have a seperate sdl, i want to make sure that each ones specific sound gets added and of course and redundant ones get the boot. I admit im not a experienced modder but i want to make sure that all these get together compatble wise.

The .sdl file in Aces' compatibility fix already has everything in it that is needed for several of the mods in your list. The documentation that comes with it should tell you which ones it takes care of, so you will only have to worry about the other ones.
