Released November 2008
Cross Sounds 1.0 is the sixth release of this sound mod.
The original Cross Sounds 0.5 replaced 50% of the game’s sounds.
Cross Sounds 1.0 replaces 96%, or 146 of the original 152 sounds.
I consider this mod complete, though hope to tweak it - and improve it - in the future.
The Cross Sounds 0.9 to 1.0 update includes:
• New tank movement sounds
• New halftrack/light tank sound
• New wheeled vehicle sound
• New 30mm Gatling sound (used by the A10 Warthog)
• Over a dozen new Machine Gun sounds
• Looked at volume on all sounds and adjusted some
• Updated Excel Sound Guide

NB.
SPMBT gives you the option to use WAV or MP3 sound files. WAV is usually the default, but may depend when you first installed MBT.
If you use WAV, or switch to WAV (which I recommend as it’s better quality) you can install this mod in MBT.
This sound mod is also fully compatible with SPWW2, as MBT and WW2 use the same sounds and sound map. SPWW2 has only ever used WAV files, so no issue there.
This mod only changes the wav files (actual sounds), so can be installed mid-battle with no PBEM, security or OOB problems.
However, this mod is not endorsed or supported by Shrapnel Games or The Camo Workshop. Here's their advisory on mods:
"
This mod contains highly altered or additional files that may or will cause interference with the master game files and it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that this mod be installed and played ONLY in a separate copy of the game and NOT run from the master game"
Cheers,
Cross
