JazonXD Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Hi everyone, I've just updated from 1.2 to the newest and stable version of DCS 1.5.2 and I've noticed that for air to ground missiles like the Mavericks or Hellfires, whenever they hit a target there is a lack of vehicle explosion or explosion sound in general. All there is is a quiet metallic sound, sort of like metal on metal. Is this a bug or is it something that I messed up? How can I fix is? Thanks. (I haven't tested this in air to air situations... I don't remember if they had the explosion sound or not, when I have time, i update the post.)

Mike77 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Just as another point of reference... I'm on latest 1.5.2 as well. With the A-10C and Mavericks, I've heard that same metallic sound on impact (as apposed to an explosion sound). But, it isn't consistent. I have heard some explosions on impact with target. I'll try tomorrow and see if I can find a pattern. Mike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk.

So far, I've found that whenever anything impacts the ground, there is no explosion sound. Even when AA missiles impact the ground, there's no explosion sound. I went back to the directory of DCS and I played back some of the "GroundExplosion" sounds and they sounded normal, however, they don't show up in game. I think I'm going to reinstall DCS. Maybe it was due to "upgrading" from 1.2 to 1.5 that caused this... AMD 5600X -- Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision -- 32GB 3600MHz DDR4 -- HP Reverb G2 -- Logitech 3D Extreme Pro -- Thrustmaster TWCS BRRRT!

Psyrixx Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I hear explosion sounds in multiplayer, but not in singleplayer. Robert Sogomonian | Psyrixx website| e-mail | blog | youtube | twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike77 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Gotcha. I'm pretty new to DCS, my first instal was 1.5 Open Beta so I didn't upgrade. I'm also new to firing Mavericks, just started using them in the last few days. So, I set the option for unlimited weapons and just free fly around blowing stuff up. For hours at a time I don't think I'll ever get tired of using the F2 external view to watch the Mavs come off the rails Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk.

JazonXD Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 Guys, I have seem to fix it... reinstall game :/ However, after reinstalling, I ran into the issue of reinstalling FC3: see http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=157674 AMD 5600X -- Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision -- 32GB 3600MHz DDR4 -- HP Reverb G2 -- Logitech 3D Extreme Pro -- Thrustmaster TWCS BRRRT!

JazonXD Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 NOPE DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM! it seems like that this bug is very inconsistent... sometimes, the sound will work while some other times, it will not work. Also, it seems like that older missions made in 1.2 or later have a much higher chance of the sound not working. It seems like when I fly a plane that's FC3 will also increase the chances of the sound not working.......

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 8, 2016 ED Team Share Posted January 8, 2016 Guys I may have this one already reported. But please post your zipped logs folder and tracks if you have them. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=150091&page=2 There is an open bug at the moment that occurs if you load a mission the second time without restarting dcs.

I don't think my problem is the exact same as the one already reported though... it's a bit more extensive including ALL ground explosions and occasionally air explosions as well.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted January 8, 2016 ED Team Share Posted January 8, 2016 run a mission so you replicate the problem. After you will find your logs folder in your saved games location C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games\DCS\Logs right click the logs folder and zip it, then attach it here.

notg Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Has there been a fix for this problem? I currently have the same issue ever since updating to 1.5.2 The first time i play i hear explosions, however the next mission i load (or view track of first mission) there is none, also even on the first mission i load there is still no sounds for the impact of rounds from the A-10 gatling gun. I have tried reinstalling which didnt fix it, also the problem affects the standard DCS sounds aswell as all sound mods that i have tried. Thanks for any help in advance :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazonXD Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 AFAIK there's nothing to fix this yet. It seems to only happen on missions that were created before 1.5 (ex 1.2.16 missions or earlier) AMD 5600X -- Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision -- 32GB 3600MHz DDR4 -- HP Reverb G2 -- Logitech 3D Extreme Pro -- Thrustmaster TWCS BRRRT!

It seems to only happen on missions that were created before 1.5 (ex 1.2.16 missions or earlier) I see, it also does it if i choose instant action, or even if a create a mission through the editor.

Hopefully it is fixed soon as it is quite frustrating:music_whistling: For me, if i make a new mission in mission editor or generate a mission etc, then the sounds usually work fine. However, if I play a mission that was created back in 1.2 or earlier, then sounds don't work properly.

nomdeplume Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Any movement on this issue? Still seems to be the case that explosions etc. only produce sound in the first mission you run. Are more logs still required to isolate the issue or is it just on the to-do list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dresoccer4 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 i was hoping that 1.5.4 would fix this but doesn't seem to be the case. kinda of break the immersion when big, bright explosions are completely silent.
