CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted April 9, 2014 Really great as usually, your work never seizes to make me imagine an Arma with all the right sounds it was meant to have. Real Sounds. This is AMAZING! Ounce this is out, i hope servers use it so i don't have to play a day without this. Fantastic work! Keep it up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mordeaniischaos 3 Posted April 11, 2014 Definitely sounds awesome. Hopefully you're able to pull off giving sounds with context (ie, rain on rooftops/vehicles, quieter sounds indoors). My only critique is maybe working on the timing of the thunder. Seems to take a very long time for visible and probably fairly close lightning. Just out of curiosity, did you have samples for closer and far thunder? Seemed like the first two bolts made more of a crack, being closer, while the further bolts had that rumbling build up of distant thunder. Was that just a coincidence or something you're actually doing? Either way, I think the video was really what I needed to be sold on this. I guess I never considered how lacking the ambient sounds are in ArmA 3 :p Keep up the awesome work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jackson Snow 10 Posted April 11, 2014 Yeah that video is right good, looking forward to this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 272 Posted April 12, 2014 Will you do some wind sounds that depend on the wind speed so you can actually hear how windy it is and maybe even hear the gusts? Maybe even somehow wind sound would change depending where you're watching so you can estimate the direction? Would be pretty epic. Weather sounds are important for immersion and wind sounds would help even in some mods that use wind ballistics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thunder is broken down into 4 samples; 2 for the normal bolts and 2 for the heavier bolts. Each sample is either Near or Far, so depending on the players position, it will play either sample. I am contacting scriptwriters who will be able to help me with detecting if a player is in a vehicle, in a house, or out walking/running outside and play those certain rain sound effects. As for wind; I do not think I am going to mod the wind effects, as they are already "pretty good" when it becomes overcast. Thank you all for the support!
