I have created new fire sound for heavy machine gun DShK38 using great and free application "Audacity 2.0.5."
Radio/eYe/Mayer you can put this in S&T pacage (if you like it). Here is the download link to wav files. If you want to hear new sound, unpack sound.rfa which is in STFHSW directory using winRFA and move new files to "44khz" directory and pack it.

[Download]



I want to fix some crappy fire sounds in S&T pack. I'm working on: verling, FG42, StG44

Good job, I like it. smile

One thing bugs me though: There's a sound in the background which loops approximately every 0.5 seconds. If you listen closely you should hear it. Are you able to remove it?

Very good try Slobo. In my opinion though, feature films (professional, full length story movies) or other games seem to be much better source of sounds than YT. Why? Plenty of the YT films are amatour recordings, captured with cheap and crappy microphones, which causes sound to be clipped. For example we've got nice sounds ripped off of the marvellous Saving Private Ryan, like Flak 20mm, Browning MG or Tiger's distant sound.

RAD Tools

Don't forget to check Compress audio option otherwise you'll get an empty file.

I can try this yes
it also came to my mind to make a winterskin for the t-28, it's a shame that only finnish troops got it on the map (which is weird imo)

Gut ich mach auch noch eine Anleitung auf deutsch wink

Quote [LSD]SeppDietrich[OGF] ()

Hast du auch noch nicht bevor du es installierst (stfhsw bedeuted fhsw sound&texturen). Nach dem entpacken des Ziparchivs sollen die Ordner FHSW und STFHSW mitsamt ihren Inhalt in den Mods Ordner verschoben werden, dabei muss eine FHSW Datei (init.con) überschrieben werden. Also auf Ja klicken wenn Windows nachfragt.

Dazu müssen dann noch die Leveldateien geladen werden.

Does the lightmappack cause problems with the server? I mean it contains changes on the level files ... would this affect the compatibility?

No it only modifies the client side, like everything posted in this thread, so it won't block your ability to play online.

Thanks for the quick answer.
Yeah i was quite unsure since I thought map changes have to be made server side with ssm  that everybody can join a map.

Another question. I remember an older instruction of S & T pack in which it was mentioned to delete certain rfa files from the levels folder.
Which maps must be removed?

None. The S&T file for FHSW 0.51 adapted by eye simply lacks level files.
and the fixed level files by myself (download underneath) work with 0.51

also that is exactly the reason why i deleted the old instruction
