The Radio Mods were the first ones that I downloaded back when they were first available. I cannot tell you how much fun it is to go on patrol and hear the messages from the era, and that my girlfriend can't stand them.
A question I have is, during my surface attacks on single merchants, I would like the radio to compete with the deck gun so I don't have to turn it off or strain to hear it over the other combat noises. Is it possible somewhere to edit the volumn of the incoming transmission? It seems like it is pretty low. Thanks for the work. |

If you tweak the files very high, you'll have to put up with an amount of audio clipping, but since we're dealing with old radio broadcasts, heard against a background of the ambient noise of the sub, the sea etc. and ( in real life) often transmitted from hastily and live cut 15-inch transcription discs, it's never bothered me. You can batch normalise the entire CBS Radio events.ini contents in situ. It might be worth your checking it out. http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/ And, of course, you can always use the INSTANT RADIO G.I. Jive tracks as random tracks in the CBS folder, giving you constant radio, with the Cap'n.s scripted broadcasts interrupting the delicious G.I. Jill. You can find them here. http://sh.xset.co.uk |

Uber Radio Mod?
Is there an "Uber Radio Mod" that incorporates the various radio stations that have been produced, ie, the Saigon, CBS, NBC, Japanese, etc into a single package? If not, is there a single listing of the download sites for all of the Radio Mods?
Thanks in advance, |

There's no "Uber Radio" mod, but there are quite a few stations available. Apart from CaptainCox's CBS News mod, tedhealy created several stations dedicated to carrying editions of single programmes (e.g. Abbott & Costello, Burns & Allen, Bob Hope, Jack Benny etc. )
I think Ted's experienced some problems with Filefront. Best thing to do is a search in the mods forum for "radio" That should turn up most of what is available. The problems with an UBER MOD are: 1. File size. Even at the tightest compresssion (16kbs) 30 minutes of radio still use around 3.4 Mb. 2. Merging the event.ini of each station. The biggest problem with scripted stations ( where the events.ini is used to set programmes to broadcast at a set time on a given date ) is that if you save the game - when you resume, the radio begins its schedule of transmsissions back from the date of the beginning of the mission, not the in-game date where you saved the game. I think people are moving away from scripted stations - except Captain Midnight's CBS station, which scripts news broadcasts - and towards simply putting the music, or programmes they like into station folders, where they are played at random. That's the idea behind my GI JIVE tracks. They play randomly, but sound like a continuous radio programme. |

Not at all
radio mods don't conflict with any other mods.

Still having CTD with the Manila thing
Sorry to bring this up again, but I still am getting the CTD when the Manila is being Bombed news is being aired. I DL the fix from a few pages back but still get the CTD. It seems to happen at the same point, just after the announcer starts in about Oahu under martial law, I think. The only mods I have are RSRD, 360 plotter, the new medals. FWIW, the date is Dec. 13 in the game, so shouldn't the manila being bombed be old news at that point or does this mod not synch with the date. I Love it otherwise! any ideas?
TIA, Brian |

Metroman
What fix are you referring to? If you mean the RadioStationManager it should take care of not only the CTD (if it is indeed from the radio mod) and the "old news" bug.
