Spetz Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Was flying the the sitting ducks mission and my cannon sounded like an empty pop can with a few rocks in it..very hollow and stuttery with no smoke. (Like it was only sounding every 10th round or so). From external view it worked fine, including smoke. This was at low altitude, less then 500' I'd say. Did not have this problem at high altitudes. It almost seems like it hesitate to fire when low to the ground. Min alt is set to zero (default). Anyone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalli Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I notice on the forum that people are commending the excellent GAU (Cannon Sound) well I got to say mine sounds also like a tin can or very high pitched and I am most certainly not getting the original authentic sound like in the Beta versions. Any help or comment on this would be appreciated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spetz Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) Could you record a video of this ? Nate Will do today (Snow day !!! WOOHOO !!!) EDIT **** Just tried to recreate the issue and all seemed to work fine. Perhaps the defrag I did last night after the install helped..

ACUTech Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Argh, you would need to record a video, you could upload it on youtube also, not just post the track, since the track will playback with OUR ingame sound...

Kalli Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 OK thanks everyone for pointing me in the right direction. The GAU sound is as posted here, its very different from any of the Beta versions, which obviously in this case is very bad for obvious reasons as everyone will agree. I am using Win 7 64bit and have used the same system through all Betas without any problems whatsoever. I downloaded twice from the German site and a third time from the US site and have tried this in both 32bit and 64bit. The results are the same in each case! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9dHvjzl4nI Any help in this matter will be greatly appreciated, this sound must go???

Nate--IRL-- Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 If you still have Beta 4 installed you could swap the sounds from that. Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate OK Nate, this has done it, I got my GAU sound back, wonderful. Obviously this is an actual change to the wav file, wonder why they changes the sound it was more realistic and much better. I thing part of the selling thing is based on authentic sounds, would have thought ED would have kept it in. Any way thanks for all the suggestions and help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACUTech Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I think it was changed because some did not find it "authentic" enough, there were numerous threads in regards to the GAU8 sound. I think the new sound is quite nice. ED can make is as authentic to the real thing as they can, with high quality recordings and suff, and some "GAU8 sound experts" would still find something to complain about, so... :doh: =ACU=Tech TECH Systemes Computer 1 Computer 2 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not a matter of being an expert to hear what one hears. If you have listened to the link I provided then please tell me that the sound you hear in that is authentic. It may be that my system is not translating the new sound correctly. Irrespective the old or original sound does on my system translate the closest to the real thing. Thank you very much ;) Edited February 26, 2011 by Kalli spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team c0ff Posted March 1, 2011 ED Team Share Posted March 1, 2011 Guys, cool down a bit, please. The example shows an issue in gun ending sound, which is a side effect of sound engine peculiarity + not perfect matching of samples. Whether it's a minor issue, or an annoying one depends on personal priorities. Can't give any exact timeframe, but I plan to fix it. Dmitry S.
