grease the turrets and larger pivoting weapons

[RODBUSTR]

      The noise turrets and the 88 flak make are not like anything I ever experienced in reality.   Here They sound more like the dragging of a huge piece of concrete over the top of another that is suspended  off the ground.  AH 2 sound options would let Us silence it.   Have a blast.

So you're a former 88 flak gunner?

You’ve fired an 88 before?

What experience do you have in reality? How many recordists are you aware of that have actually recorded real turrets?

Hand him a screwdriver, Chalenge.

Hand him a screwdriver, Chalenge.   

Based on all the nonsense he posts here, I'd say he's had more than enough.

The OTHER kind.  The number one choice for tightening screws that are loose.

Yeah, I have a feeling the bell is intentional? Not absolutely sure about that.

You can simply go:     clipboard > options > preferences > game sounds > click on advanced button > highlight actuators > reduce volume to where you want it.

One-eye

Man and here all I wanted is the paint tool in the terrain editor that can be set so only a percentage of pixels inside of the brush circle will be painted. That Hitech would set that function to the raise hill tool so one click at 1ft per second would create a micro terrain area of random tiny hills around a spawn for GVs.

One-eye

Are you sure that works one-eye?  It used to in AH2 however I gave up trying to do it in AH3.  I admit I have not tried in quite some time.

Whilst Rodbustr may not always come across to us in the best way we have to admit the sounds in AH3 are pretty average.

[RODBUSTR]

   No but I have experience  tinkering with several types of anti aircraft artillery, armor and work with heavy equipment which has much of the same design and technology that turreted armor does and none sound like that. They are precision instruments.  Keep the troll wagon rolling though... Have a blast.

I understand your frustration with the sounds. I went back and listened to them and I agree that the default sounds are not the same as the actual gun. I was not able to handle an 88 myself, but I did record one firing several shots. Also, the 40mm Bofors, which I really loved and was able to fire. I think probably the 88 doesn't have much sound. It's a bit like the Storch flaps, or the F4F landing gear being hand cranked most of the sound comes from the operator. Plus, I bet the 88 takes a lot less power than either airplane I mentioned, so there wouldn't be much effort.
