[REPORTED]Explosion sounds only in first play of a mission?

[SFC Tako]

As I've tested a lot of missions back and forth during mission creating, there is one thing that is always recurring unless I shut down the whole game and restart it: The loss of explosion sounds

This happens regardless of what aircraft I use and it always occur the second time I play a mission (and following times of coure). Is it just me or is this a known bug?

 

It's not a biggie but as I see things, it's a total immersion killer. Also, another reason I play a mission a second time is to get a smoother experience. WHAT?! Yes, if I play a mission for the first time all added sound effects (caused by triggers) create hangups lasting for two seconds at worst but when I play a mission for the second time...no hangups whatsoever. Seems like they are cached since previous play, or what? BUT THEN THE EXPLOSIONS ARE GONE! :mad:

 

So, please let me know if anyone else has come across this. I mean, it could of course be my system that is causing this but still, I would find that a bit odd.

Hi we have had this before and I reported it, give me some time and I will find out the status

[BIGNEWY]

yes this is reported #32395

 

no time frame for a fix sorry, but as you have mentioned after reloading a mission the explosion sound has gone.

[SFC Tako]

Big thanks for the swift response :) I'll go back to what I was doing ;)

[BIGNEWY]

no problem.

 

obviously the only real work around is to close DCS and restart if you are loading a mission again.

[SFC Tako]

Yup, and I actually do just that as DCS loads very fast for me. So no biggie :)

Imagine how we feel playing Combined Arms - its a reaaaaaaally quiet battlefield.

[SFC Tako]

reaaaaaaally quiet battlefield.

 

That's some spooky stuff, gotta get fixed then.

[The Black Swan]

With ED working on enhanced explosions mabye this will get fixed soon....

Thanks for the work around, though. I played a few games last night, restarted after each one, and things were better.

This seems to be working alright now, at least on 1.5

I can reload a mission and the explosions keep rumbling! :)
