Default Argh. Still with the sounds?

I just wanted to suggest that the team put some work into the game sounds. I suspect they are the same (already bad) sounds from over a decade ago.

I was ready to buy the game but decided not to based on the sounds in the videos. It really is am immersion killer.

I even registered just to suggest this.

Please... improve the sounds.

There is a Lot of information on this forum maybe you should at least read the updates before posting, or use search function.

2. Sound. As I’ve mentioned earlier, we’re completely redoing our sound engine from scratch. The work is being done in three stages. Stage 1, alpha, where we test basic functionality with some bare-bones samples has been passed a while ago. Stage 2, beta, where we have all aircraft sounds complete, and have some bare-minimum sounds for other objects, is almost here. Stage 3, a complete sound engine with all object and ambient sounds, will follow.
What we have now is brand new DB601, Merlin, Mercury, and Jumo 211 engines in a new environment, infinitely more stable and supporting realistic sounds from dozens or hundreds of engines within hearing distance. Various secondary and tertiary sounds are also there – G loads, flutter, controls movement, etc. The aircraft feel alive, especially when you’re inside the cockpit.

New sounds are being done by Valery Kornilov he has also made the sounds for ROF, and those are great.

First: drop dead.

Second: learn to use search tools in any internet forum.

This is the second time you use that "drop dead" comment. If anything else, it only detracts from your valid statement about reading stickies and the information provided, because if you start by attacking a poster he's all the more likely not to take your advice.

The fact that you are a supporter of the sim and it runs great on your PC doesn't give you the right to insult people who might express disagreements with certain features or have problems on their installation.

Post counts, date of joining and opinions expressed are irrelevant in moderation. All that matters is that forum members treat each other with some basic respect, as per the forum rules.

If you fail to do so you're just as likely to receive a ban as any other member of the forum, regardless of how much of a supporter of the sim you are.

I don't want to ban anyone, but consider this your "two out of three" warning. Next time you respond in such a manner i have no choice but to give you a bit of a time out to think things over.

Nothing personal, just don't try to chase off forum members with a different opinion, especially newcomers to the community.

Thanks.

fwiw, the only thing I do is read the registration before posting. If there are other mandatory things to read they should be part of the registration process.

Thanks also smink for the mod info. Glad to see that 1C has changed their perspective on sound modding.

Unfortunately, a company that expects me to read a set of forum stickies before giving any feedback doesn't deserve my business. No matter what. Stickies are not the place to put information about your product. Try the front page.

Instead be realistic. Most customers (who care about the sound) will watch the video and never even bother registering to give feedback. They'll just pass on it.

Which is what I'm going to do on 1C products for a while.

Nobody said it's required reading before posting in general.

It's just that there's a thread on the top of the page and the starting post of that thread answers your question, it seems a bit weird to miss that, that's all.

In other words, gradually getting into a forum gives you enough time to acquaint yourself with how things work out and the currently available level of knowledge. If you just register and hit the post button right away you're bound to miss a lot of stuff and then some people will come along to point that out.

Trust me, i've been answering the same "how to" questions ever since the game was released, i compiled some sort of FAQ to have them all in one place for ease of reference which is now a sticky and yet, there's still a few people who manage to completely miss it and ask one of these questions again

It's unavoidable to an extent of course, but it's good to be a bit proactive about things as well and check the most visible part of the forum for anything that might answer my questions before i submit a new thread dealing with the same issue

That's got nothing to do with 1c, it's how forums and communities work in general: people expect any poster to be at least somewhat informed about the matter they are going to debate or criticize. That's not unreasonable to expect, in fact it helps with the flow of conversation and keeps all relevant discussion in one place and easily accessible.

I used the sound mod and its pretty darn good.

Newbie Qualfier: That doesn't mean I don't like the sim. Not trying to slag the devs. Don't want to offend anyone. Happy happy happy.

Its just a shame we cannot use it online at the moment. Still the patch is only days/weeks away we may all be very pleasantly surpised.

Haven't played online, just curious. Why doesn't it work online?
