Jafa testing sounds for CoD
 

Don't know if he has announced it, though he is just testing it out currently, maybe not as mod-able as 1946 is/was don't know. But just wanted to community to know he is at least giving it a shot.

You can look at his youtube channel to see his progress.

I am not ecouraging anyone to nag him, but just to support his efforts with hopes that he will eventually port his sounds from 1946 over to CoD.

Everyone has diffrent liking to who sound is better, but either way its encouraging to see some effort put forth to correcting/improving the sounds.

I appologize if this has been covered before, at work and don't have the time to tred through all the post right now, just excited is all.

Now THAT... is good news :)

That would be really cool! Always enjoyed his work in 1946:)

It will be MORE moddable, and very quickly..the SDK will not require all the reverse engineering that was needed for IL2

Now thats the best news i've heard all day, thanks for the heads up gflinch:grin:

And for anyone that hasnt heard Jafa's work :

Not like it is now, a wet fart:grin:
And while im at it give me that skin lol

Oleg himself stated prior to the release that the development video sounds were place holders and we wouldn't hear the proper ingame sounds until the sim was released.
We did question this and now we know why,there were no realistic engine sounds ,the place markers are still there and they still sound like il2 lawn mowers :(
Those pieces of work are incredible,100% better than il2 and what i've read and heard about this sim.

Jafa's sounds are magnificent.

Wow those do sound amazing.

I may have to install IL2 1946 on my new pc with some mods, I always played it vanilla.

Here's my question. If you have engine trouble or engine damage with these modded sounds, is that modeled as well? Or will it just play the stock recorded loop of a healthy engine over and over no matter what levers or damage has occurred?

Hope this person keeps up the great work. Well done.

HOLY MOTHER!!! THIS IS IT guys we NEED to get OLEG to listen to these sounds! i cant believe it! how is it posible that oleg and crew have such cruddy sounds when one guy can make these magnifcant sounds??? we can only hope that we can get these to install over or crappy vanilla sounds.

Wow, stunning sounds :)

Nagging no but perhaps a few portraits of some very famous past U.S. presidents from members might encourage him. :-)

Awesome news, hurricane "test" sounds already very promising! I wish we will have his great "db600 series" sounds for COD too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxRPIVRW_jA

@Kestral79: My understanding of his work is that these are not 'canned' sounds. What I mean is they are worked into the current (1946) sound engine, it uses the doppler effect and sound warping that is in the sound engine. He has improved the samples that it takes from to create the engine sounds, etc. It will change RPM, flyby, etc as the environment changes, I don't know how many different samples are needed for all the nuances of each engine to make it real, I know there are quite a few, and the sound engine accommodates, quite a bit of variation. One thing I do know, talking to Jafa, its not plug an play, there is alot of finessing to get them to sound just right, and the sound engine has its limitations, but over all, he really has done really well with what he is working with.

To get the true awesomeness of a flyby, you would need to simulate wind conditions effecting the soundwaves (so that windy weather makes the flybysound fade in-out frequently at distance, but the closer it gets the more defined and constant it becomes) Some sound frequencies (like long wavelength ones) travel further through air so the brooom sound from the engine may still remain, whilst the snapping of the exhaust-stacks and roar of the engine fade in and out as the plane approaches the viewer and then becomes very define as it rushes by, and then you hear the "clapping" sound from the aft of the exhaust-stacks.

ARMA II has a very very good sound engine (even masks/soften sounds behind vegetation/terrain/buildings) and portrays a VERY realistic soundscape.

The sound quality isn't 100% though thanks to youtube :)

Pay attention to the delayed explosion sounds (YES we have them in CLOD - sound distance travel) and the altered effect as the plane closes in and flys by the camera, and you can then here the jetblast "ripping" up the air.

Jafa, I've never heard your sounds before but they are godlike.
