Title: Curious About the Sound Beta's Outcome
Post by: bustr on April 09, 2013, 04:48:02 PM

Anyone have any info on the recent sound beta? Did we do enough for Pyro and HiTech to help them?

It appeared to be an integral part of HTC releasing the next update with all the new, updated rides, and features. Worth enquiring about the patient's health and well being. I'm curious to see the Ki-43 stack up against the Brewster for the most irritating ankle biter ride in the game. The art work alone warrants a few rides along with seeing the updated Lancaster and C20x's. And the new He111 for you scenario fans.

I am interested in exactly what this new sound engine..thingy can do.




Will it make sounds more realistic by adding engine rev effects,with maybe the sounds of the prop spinning up or down? "think Il-2's bad arse engine sounds"  Will it muffle sounds while inside the cockpit?

I was wondering the same thing, they were looking for people to test it but were vague on what we were looking for. I was testing the first and second release (I've become too attached to my sounds for the latest beta) and it sounded like sounds were a little more muffled at longer distances. This could just be me hearing things though, a lot of times I have so much background noise I can't even hear my squadies talking to me.

I think the BBS implosion MAY have set a few people back at HTC with the rebuild process.

It's still ongoing.  The BBS outage had a domino effect in messing up our schedule.  It'll resume after the release goes out.

They're here, we just need to conspire better to convince them to turn it on or really crank it up in the MAs.  :devil  :pray

Will the new sound engine finally add new sounds to each aircraft by default? And how would sound packs work with all this new jazz
