reported earlier No sound when being hit

Better than track you can make your own. Go online to the digitalthemepark server for Nevada take a plane and fly low and slow over Henderson. Then let me know if you hear anything as your plane is shredded to pieces?

Will do, thanks.

@Rebel28Here you go. I used current OB (2.7.10.19473).

Thank you for taking the time to run the test. From your video you clearly have hit sounds which I do not. I have run repair multiple times and all sounds are turned up yet I get nothing doing the same run. Other people on the same server also have no sound on hits being taken. This has been for awhile and has us very confused as to why this is happening.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. What might we be overlooking for a fix other than a complete reinstall of the program.

Here's the next step:

1. Download attached file and put it in your "Saved Games/DCS.../Config" folder (you may have such a file already - if so, rename existing file to avoid overwriting).
2. Reproduce the missing hit sound issue (preferably in SP).
3. Exit mission and save track.
4. Then attach here:
   • your "Saved Games/DCS.../Logs/sound.log" file
   • your "Saved Games/DCS.../Logs/dcs.log" file,
   • your track.

I have been dealing with this bug for a while now, at least a year or more (stopped playing for a while and recently started again). It was driving me nuts, I couldn't hear any impacts either bullets or missiles.

So over the weekend I was messing around trying to figure out why I still cannot hear impacts on my aircrafts (f15c & a10a flaming cliffs). I found that if you uncheck the box that says "hear like a helmet" or something, I unchecked that box and now I can hear impacts.

Not sure if that's intended, but it seems to be my issue hope it helps someone.

Will try that since the bug is back again.

@Flappie Is the autoexec.cfg still valid for the current version ? (2.7.14.24228)

[Flappie]

Yes, it is. Once added, just play, then look into your Logs folder. You'll find the sound.log file.

[Lynnux]

Yes, I have to "take the helmet off", too. Had to lower the cockpit sound volume to have approx. the same volume as with the helmet but I hear my plane being hit now.
