first off I do not have any custom sounds installed in any way...
I also checked to make sure my sounds file is NOT read-only (the settings folder, or any file in it for that matter)
here is the text of it:

notice the Bold ones I highlighted...
it does not "remember" this for every sortie. every new sortie I start the gun sounds for the planes are back at max, and really loud. I can go in to the preferences, and just touch the sounds sliders for these, then hit OK and all is well again, but I have to do that every sortie. it is quite annoying to have to do that.
on a side not out of curiosity, this was / is a clean install as far as I am aware, but the sounds folder itself has no files in it other than a single text document, called "cleaned" and in it says: "Token file for removing old files
" the only thing I have done other than the fresh install is to do an update one time from 2094 to 2095
are the game sounds no longer separate items?
