pigdog Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 There seems to be no indication for changing ammo as the commander/gunner. If I want to change to a different ammo round, no text or audio message comes up. Shouldnt the audio play "loader load heat/sabot" ?? Or at least a text message "loader load heat/sabot next round" ?Right now pressing insert/delete does nothing, so you never know for sure what round will be loaded next. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Look in the top righthand corner of the screen. You should see some red text which indicates what ammo you have chosen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Volcano Posted March 1, 2011 Moderators Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well, with the exception of one sound in particular ("fire"), by design SB does not play voice commands for the position the user currently occupies.But really, all you need to do is double tap the key for the round you want and it will get loaded unloaded and loaded in a tank. If you aren't sure what round you are telling the loader to load, just look in the top right in the commander's position and the red text will display of the round you are telling the loader to load next (flashing) or the round type that is currently loaded (not flashing). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigdog Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 I know the voice track is already there for the commander. Wouldnt it help the immersion factor to hear voices when commands are ordered? So the loadout in the upper right corner is the only indication then.Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well it depends where you come from, doesn’t it. For me the “immersion” is shattered when I hear non Aust crew drills and responses. I’m in the process of trying to persuade some colleagues to record a set of suitable responses but this along with US centric call signs etc. are just things I’ve had to learn to live with (not look forward to). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigdog Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 all the voices also sound like one person and it can get confusing when you dont know if the voice is from your tank unit or another when you are bouncing around different units. A few more voices couldnt but help it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few more voices couldnt but help it.Well, in regards to your statement: there is a different voice for the radio, the TC, the gunner, the loader. Obviously more voices would be better (it is implied) but not all voices are coming from the same person, unless of course you have it set on Spanish or something like that.And no, the design decision has always been that we never wanted voices for the entity you are currently occupying, because it is YOU, not the AI. If it were the other way around, then the situation you describe would be worse (not knowing who is saying what for what reason). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted March 2, 2011 Members Share Posted March 2, 2011 You could increase immersion by saying out loudly and proudly "Loader, load HEAT!". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanPatrick Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Could a feature be added in a future update wherein a player could enable/disable the voice of the occupied crew position? I realize this probably wouldn't be feasible for the gunner's "on the way" response as it would have to precede the pull of the trigger. Unless there was a "respond" key or something. (Maybe it could be attached to the "Identified!/Cannot Identify!" buttons.) But really, I'd be happy with just the commander's dialogue. ***Note: I'd actually like to hear it all in German as I favor the Leo but I didn't want to mutilate your spelling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted November 24, 2011 Members Share Posted November 24, 2011 Hm. Not sure if I get your point... if you want to hear the commander talking, be the gunner. If you want to hear the gunner, ho into the commander's position. If you want to hear both, just yell at the screen. This is a do-it-yourself simulation. WRT to the German voices, you can simply create your own mod. Copy all the three TXT files from C:\Program Files\eSim Games\SB Pro Demo\loc\English (US) into all the other language folders that are in the ..\loc directory. You can then pick any language option that you want, and will always see English menu text, but the voices will be those of the selected localization. Tadaa! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Yeah, I've already got the German voices in the Eng Loc file. What I meant was I'd like to hear the commander say "Fahrer, langsam vorwart marsch!" when I press the "W" key. Like in a MP game when you don't have ownership of a vehicle. Usually I am shouting at the screen. Sometimes it's orders, but mostly it's something like "Whoa!...Where the h*%# did that come from!?" I guess like DarkLabor, I don't want to disturb others. In this case it's my GF sleeping in the next room. We work opposite shifts so she's usually asleep when I'm on. Lately I'm getting closer and closer to not catching myself before I shout "Erkannt! Geschieße, achtung!" (Tried to be careful with that one, hope I got it right. The alternative would not be pleasant! ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ssnake Posted November 24, 2011 Members Share Posted November 24, 2011 Yeah, I've already got the German voices in the Eng Loc file.Well, the suggested alternative is better IMO since it gives you English menu entries while it retains every other language voice output, including English. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Nice typo or was "somehwere" just to show that mis translation / spelling is a two way thing? Still trying to get some people in a room so we can replace "up" / "on the way" with the "Loaded", "Fire", "Firing NooooW!" sequence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm wondering if anyone who understands German has ever been walking past my house and heard me shouting from inside: "I'm shooting generally somewhere! Watch out!"
