Hollywood or realism?

[DTWD]

From a point of view of view of playing a sim like FC do you want it to be cool, real or a mixture of the two?

 

I am thinking of "tweaking" the sounds a bit as I don't think the stock ones are all that fantastic and I am not a big fan of the replacement sounds either. So I was thinking of doing my own which I may share with the community, but I was wondering how you all felt about their sounds and simming in general?

I tend to like the simulation part and love the attention to detail, but when it comes to sound I know what I like and seeing as I am never going to be sat in a Mig 29 hurtling down the runway I want something that I think is right and sounds fitting but not necessarily correct, but feels right.

Any MOD that sounds realistic would be welcomed, but I would stay clear of grandiose fantastic B movie type sound effects.

 

Their are some videos around where you can clearly hear missile launching from inside the cockpit but I'd assume that all aircraft/missiles sound different and I don't think that's possible in LO ... so; "I want something that I think is right and sounds fitting but not necessarily correct, but feels right." is good target to aim for. :thumbup:

Cozmo,

 

That's what I was thinking of doing.

 

Does anybody know if FC supports surround sound? I know there are files like "engine front" and "engine back" but I think they are just for where the camera is pointed.

there are for external sounds

Hmmm so it doesn't support 5.1?

 

Not that doesn't mean I can't encode 5.1 into the oggs, it just means two sound packs if I do release it...hmmm

I have no idea, I assume not. I think LockOn uses regular stereo sound coding only but I don't know, this is just my assumption based on how things sound and 'configured' in sound.cfg

DTWD... Give these sounds a try.
