Theory On Engine noise

[proton45]

I read something just recently where a pilot make a comment about what you could hear in combat, and he said (something like)..."if you can hear their guns they are too close".

In IL2 now and always some people can hear other planes engines at kilometers as "sonic radar"

One of the big unsolved bugs in il2.

As Oleg say:

"2. In Il-2 the sound engine was designed for HiEnd sound cards. It was so different sounding on Hi End and on regular cards.... On simple motherboard cards of some producers the panning was so simple, that we was unable to control it or regulate the distance... and some people begun to use it... In BoB we will have completely new sound engine that will not depending of type of sound card. We simply did own panning code, etc..."

If you like use this exploit google SoundExt.occlusions=0 or attenuation=0, afaik lots of squads know how to use, but dont like say to all community as logreaders etc.etc

PD. I hate exploits and dont use it

I thought this had to do with the "attenuation" setting in the config file?
