Wow! Thank you, great news!

This line of thinking was "loud and clear" ( pun intended :) ). This is why there is a number of wishlist thread about this very issue... it's a wish. DCS is all about realism, and this is fine. There must be though some tradeoffs, otherwise there would be no F2 or external views at all, isn't it? Thanks for the answers and sorry for the off topic.

Sadly this also affects what of the world you hear in the cockpit. Maybe this behaviour has been changed since 2.5.5 ?

Wow this is a revelation! Please can you point us how the volume for external views can be adjusted without touching what you hear inside the cockpit with "hear like in helmet" checked? I'm struggling to find the solution but it seems it was under our nose all the time :) Looking forward for a reply. Sorry but you are not correct here. Sound is a physical phenomenon, and the world is plenty of tools, measurers and math models to describe it correctly. Just to state it better: SOUND IS NOT SUBJECTIVE, sound is something you can measure, model and reproduce accurately.

This procedure would be an improvement but it misses the binaural nature of our hearing. Luckily enough, there are some professional manufacturers of binaural microphone systems. Binaural recordings + HRTF processing would add a whole new layer of realism :)

Same here, very high priority in a flight sim imho.

Yes and no. The mod I suggested will modify the volume in cockpit with "hearing like helmet" on, BUT raising that volume ( and of course bringing down dcs world master volume down to avoid distortion ) will balance the in cockpit loudness with the external view loudness.

Yes it will. Sound.lua defines how much amplitude (and at which frequency) you'll cut out with "hear like in helmet" setting for various aircrafts. You can play with that. I.E. Original A-10C: ['A-10C'] = { gain = 0.12, lowpass =1000 }, Modified A-10C: ['A-10C'] = { gain = 4, lowpass = 2000 }, Give it a try.

Or you can just join this wishlist thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=202106 I don't want to choose between realistic in cockpit sounds ( hear like in helmet ON ) and comfortable external views volume.

Are you using "hear like in helmet" option?

Nice!!

This would be great :thumbup:

Or switch to a civilian flight sim maybe.

Sorry, I skipped the release part. I confirm I'm on open beta only exe right now.

No issues here, just an updated cockpit environment engine sound. I find it awesome!

I prefer the Unigine cloud tech, to me it's more natural and polished

"A falling tree makes more noise than a growing forest". A lot of subjects, in this forum, give the wrong perspective because of this phenomenon.

We pay only modules, not the core sim.

So sad...

I would be happy also with unlocked config files so external utilities can be built.

Check network usage in those moments. Not joking, some users reported a strict connection between sim fps and network usage.
