<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yup that is it exactly. If you look in the SE4 sounds directory you'll see another folder called 'New' with a similarly named set of wave files. Somewhere in the game there is a setting that lets you use the new sounds. No matter which you use the components.txt file will be the same.

The new sounds are much better. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Each weapon has a distinct sound (including small weapons), and I think they are at a higher sample rate, too. The only bad sound is the plasma torp in my install--I saved something else over it, and now it's the old standard CSM sound. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif Not worth a full reinstall.

Dan C. I think I realises now why you wondered what the 'Use New Sounds' option does. Because in Version 1.60 it does nothing. DOH! I think I must have somehow broke this feature in ver 1.60

< Edit > Correction it does nothing if you are viewing the stock files. It works when viewing a mod

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

I just posted something on another thread about the SEModder too. My question is are you going to develop an updated Version, 1.60 has been out for some time and was it ever designed to work with gold? I had to stop using it becouse of the number of crashes and errors it kept having when I was working on my Personal Mod.

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

David, would it be possible for you to include a view like in my techviewer (see screenshot/source code below) in your program?

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

Yeah! then we could edit techlevels graphically.

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes it should work with Gold. Actaully I only test it with Gold. I do have a minor upgrade that is almost ready. But I don't think it will solve you problem as I havn't heard anything about a serious problem with crashes and errors. Can you give me some details?

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I guess anything is possible. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif Looks like a lot of work though. I'll have to give it some thought.

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

DavidG, I noticed that the leads-to seems to have a built in limit of 20 items/techs/facilites for each level of a tech. Is there a reason for this restriction?

Re: SE4 Modder Ver 1.76 (updated for ver 1.91)
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It's a hardcoded limit.
