RCA3 593 Posted April 2, 2020 RCA3SFX Description: Config based addon that boosts CfgVehicles>> Man>>CAManBase>>sensitivityEar (AI hearing), footsteps/gear sounds and JSRS footsteps/gear sounds. Each pbo is optional, unbinarized and has it's own userconfig\file.hpp so you can fine tune each value to your liking. Coincidently when running both ai_hearing.pbo and footsteps.pbo/footsteps_JSRS.pbo AI can hear the player/other AI walk/run/sprint almost at the same range as the player can hear it, possibly contributing for some challenging CQC. Features: Improved AI hearing Increased footsteps and gear sounds Increased JSRS footsteps and gear sounds Download: Google Drive Usage: Unzip to your mods folder. Copy userconfig\RCA3SFX to your Arma\userconfig folder. Notes: AI hearing tests were realized with player approaching AI from 180º and returning !(isNull (AI findNearestEnemy (getPos AI))), except for rifle tests where AI would not know immediately of player but instead start scanning horizon. Rifle shots were aimed opposite to AI.

Rifle shots were aimed opposite to AI. Thank you! Much needed mod because A3's default footsteps sounds are meager at best! Did you manage to make a bug report on the Arma 3 feedback tracker about the engine bug? Would be really helpful if BI could fix this instead of having to rely on mods to get the issues fixed! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RCA3 593 Posted April 23, 2020 Hey, @LSValmont. Thanks for offering to post on the FT. If you haven't posted yet I was thinking if I could help you with the reproduction steps and/or with a mission. If you have please post the link here so we can all follow it. Cheers. Thanks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I reported it on the BI Discord but it seems to be a CUP issue so reports must be made on their GITHUB where I sadly don't have an account... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RCA3 593 Posted April 24, 2020 @LSValmont No, it's not. I tested all with vanilla assets. Here's the reproduction steps: Place an OPFOR rifleman named o1 facing away from the player (VR world). Place a player inside a vehicle 300m away from o1. Execute code: [] spawn{ while {isNull (o1 findNearestEnemy (getPos o1))} do{ sleep 0.1; hintSilent str (round (player distance o1)); }; }; 4. Drive to o1 in a straight line. Conclusion: o1 will find player sooner with slow speeds than with fast. *updated my first post (getting enemy from AI position, not the player's). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LSValmont 789 Posted April 24, 2020 I don't think it would invert the sound position just make it so that it truly comes from the player and not from around the player... Let me know the results after you do the test. If the bug still happens I will report it 😉 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
