Actually I have discovered that I can't turn down the sound of my own tracks. I don't know if this is an error with the Mitsu sound pack or if it is my cheap headphones at fault. (I had expensive Turtlebeach headphones with volume control but they broke. Thats the subject of another string over under Hardware/Software.) I have the track sounds set down to 10% but it makes no difference. If I go below that, even 9%, the sound goes to 0.
Does anybody else have this problem?
Another tank question: Yesterday I was in a tank battle where in the beginning we were protecting our town that the Rooks had been knocking down buildings. A T34 came rolling down the road and ducked into the town after I got one shot at him. I followed him in and was coached by a Storch as to where he was. Storch put down orange smoke right on him. I rolled up behind him and could see his outline through the smoke from the commanders view (1). When I switched to the gunners view (2), I could not see him at all. The view was showing what looked like a grey blob of indistinct shape in the middle of the smoke. The blob looked more like a tree or something than a tank. In hindsight, I should have shot right into that blob anyway. I didn't so I started up again and rolled forward to try to get a better position. Then I could not depress the barrel enough. He started shooting at me and, on my second try to move forward into shooting position, he got me. So my question is: can you shoot from the commanders position/view? I assume with a little practice, you can. I was driving my usual Panzer H btw.
Thanks again!
