notg Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 For some reason DCS does not seem to play the GAU impact sound. When i view a target ive fired at it only seems to play the generic bullet impact/explosion sound instead, which sounds completely different to the GAUImpact sound file located in the game folder. Ive tried it with the standard DCS sound and also with the DCS Sound Mod (https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/836308/) However switching between the 2 makes no difference and it only plays the generic impacts as you would expect to hear from the KA-50 Cannon, F15 etc and not the actual file within the folder. I have just reformatted my PC with a clean install of Windows and DCS (Steam Version) however the problem existed before this so i doubt its a issue to do with that. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also it plays the GAU-8 firing sounds just fine as you would expect, this issue only affects the actual impact sound.
notg Posted November 5, 2016 Author Posted November 5, 2016 maybe some files have changed... Yes i assumed this, it would appear the game is playing the wrong sound file(s), is there a way to correct this? I find it odd that the ImpactGau file is still in the sound folder but the game does not seem to use it.
