The sound compared to 1946 - Page 2

Guys, you must remember that using "modded" sounds in an official release puts the developer and publisher in legal jeopardy.

Let's face facts here.

Not one person or group that has developed modded sounds for IL2 will say where the sounds come from. Ever wonder why? Because they are ripped from copyrighted material, that's why.

So, you say, just go to an airshow and record some planes.

Sadly it's not that easy. High quality sound recording isn't a cheap thing to do on it's own, much less pay the hourly operating costs for a WW2 era military aircraft and crew, times the number of different aircraft in the sim, if you can even find a flyable one of the type you need to record.

No publisher in the world would front the kind of money it would take to do it because of the limited return on investment they get for PC flight simulations.

I know facts are hard for some here to deal with, but deal with it you must.

How about machine guns..... the .303s don't sound very good in my opinion...of course I've never fired any from the cockpit of a fighter, but surely they'd have to sound better than that?!

The only one talking rubbish is you. Copyrights and intellectual property are a major issue for any developer ... Luthier did say before the russian release that their financial resources were too limited to either record their own samples. Not to speak of licensing external sound samples which tells me how FUBAR the situation in that "market" really is (read: too many greedy SOBs around).

Now, what we do on our own PCs is of course of no consequence to anyone but ourselves but for a company such as 1C the only really safe solution is to use own (self-made) stuff. Just to be absolutely sure you won't get sued by someone looking for a quick buck. Or have you forgotten "the Grumman incident"?
