RR not the risk but rather whoever took the recording.

The sounds are acceptable but not good inside the cocpit. External sounds are utter rubbish. Have you guys flown modded IL2, or the A2A addon planes for FSX? I think the sounds we have are placeholders, at least I hope so.

However the MG sounds are good IMO. Geoffrey Wellum described the sound of the 303-s as "like tearing calico". I think it's pretty close to that, at least this is how I imagined it.

hmm what I don't understand about the latter half of this thread:
Are you talking about the engine sound itself being copyrighted? Or is it about recorded samples taken from some source?
To put it another way: If I go to an airfield with my recording equipment and record some samples, then put it into some mods... that's not illegal, right?

Wouldn't have thought it was illegal in any way. I think the problem is that modders generally don't do this but rather rip sounds from commercial or at least copyrighted sources. The devs cannot therefore just pick these sounds up and include them in a commercial product.

With the amount of audio complaint threads , this should be warning enough to devs about what is looming around the corner sooner or later they will have to pull there heads out a the sand and spend some wad , with the introduction of the sound mod some years ago , lawn mowers for spitfires is no longer a legitimate excuse.
