Do new sounds mean REALISTIC SOUNDS, If you are going to start again at least PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get them correct.
Any doubts as to what they sound like pop into Duxford next week and you will hear them

If i had to guess, not realistic. At least not in the sense many here think is realistic, as in take a sound from You Tube and loop it.


But it will probably be good just the same.

They've got a chance now to get it right,it doesn't need to be rushed unless the want to put a better version in as a place holder whilst they fine tune the rest of it.
It has just got to be alot better than the stock sounds ,you should be able to know what plane it is by sound rather than just by looking.
Oh well we can but hope

Well all due respect to Jafa, I've used his sound mods in Il2 to death but you know if we can have a game that will tick all the boxes without using external mods then that has to be better for the community?..

I dont want another divide like Il2 that's for certain, and that Mod war is still going on now with what's right and what's wrong..who's right and who's wrong so for me I'm hoping this games content will be enough to keep everyone happy...at least for a while anyhow

If Jafa can do such an excellent job ,then so should someone else who has all the tools and code.

It's easier for Jafa, as he is not concerned about violating copyrights to rip sounds. A real publisher cannot do that.

I don't have ROF but apparently that sound is terrific,hold on i'll look at a link.Sounds excellent to me,so how did they do that without copywrite?
If it is artificially created then why can't it be done on WW11 engines?

"We are redoing our sound from scratch. It is proceeding at a better pace than expected. It’s already in a working alpha state, and everyone loves it."
-Luthier

This is very interesting on two counts:

1. Since the process is going so fast I wonder if sounds will be re-worked by the July 19 U.S. release? BTW...I'm betting that date gets moved back.

2. When the new sound is introduced, it will be interesting to see if "we" love the new sound as much as the new / improved developers.

Sound has always been one of the weakest parts of the IL2 franchise. I remember before Clod was released we were told the sounds would be great. Not so much. So it will be interesting to see what they come back with. I'm thinking they will be better and hopefully other things will be added like sfx for landing gear, open cockpit wind, additional sfx beyond the current "click" for switches, cowl, etc...but I'm hoping folks like Jafa and Big Pickle keep doing their great sound mods because team Luthier may come up short.
