Improved sounds for flak, battlestations, and other little sound problems that evade me atm.

The ship/plane damage from smoke/fires and depth charge water disturbances that I released for SH4 will work here also. Check the SH4 Fleet boat mods workshop for them

@TDW
are you saying we have permission to use your mods in our mod?

Excellent DW, I forgot to install the earlier version I grabbed last week as I was busy extracting the hi-rez textures and updated models from Omegu, and getting the emblem mod to work as a stand alone mod.

I'll go into the game momentarily.

Hey Drakkhen, we need lots more chatter between the u-boats. Kinda hard to play 'wolfpack' when you only hear from another boat every week or so. I also have a couple missions I could donate, like the fateful Arandora Star run. I'll see if I can get permission to donate the model I converted.

Sure, go right ahead To me I consider the fire damage and DC water disturbances to be missing parts of the game that should've been there from the start.

The sounds ive been working on. Ive taken sounds and speech files and modified the sound file to simulate more of a german sound then america. It kinda sucks when your sitting there and you press the surface key and you hear an american alarm go of. Im modding it for straight german. So no english. I figured if you wanted english you could use the stock files. This sound mod will be released with all the other mods as one big chunk like a megamod add on for om.

I believe another modder is working on radio messages, but it may take a while because of the amount of research it takes.

Or do you mean like radio chatter sending an icon to your map screen for like convoys and individual units?

Also I have released an OM version of CapnScurvys 3000 Meter Bearing Plotter. It's was a simple copy paste job to have it work in OM and is available in the forum.

I have intention to help in the progress of ATO. SH5 is a beutiful piece of sh*** and SH3 is awesome, but too dated.

But I've never played ATO. So, one particular thing that concerns me is: how many uboats types are avaiable (with interiors)?

And about the sounds. Can we import the speeches from SH3?

nice, all I want is the radio chatter as map updates will slaughter the time compression feature and likely piss off a few captains.

BTW I have fixxed the VIIB turm in OM, just waiting on permission to post it. If you've used the VIIB in a campaign you'll know what I'm talking about.

Have you tried DBSM for SH4?

All of the ones from SH3 are in OM, with the possible exception of some of the ones especially created for SH3. All the originals are there.

See my above post. Also there are sound mods which import the stock SH3 sounds. All done years ago.

ok i've redone the sounds. i've taken sh5 and sh3 sounds and through them together. when you push the crashdive key you get the Alarm scream and then the german bell. i've also removed the american sounding bell when surfacing and in other areas as well as removing the whistle to relieve the watch followed by the speech of that. its all in german. so if you press a key to change speeds or dive/surface the boat its all in german. i figured if you wanted english you can use the stock files. i did this to maintain compatiblity with systems and i don't like cutting sounds outta movie scenes because of the quality of it. this will be released in our "add-on Mod'.

thaks,
