JackandBlood 10 Posted August 26, 2009 Theres a ton of useful or humorous effects in the trigger/waypoint area, many of them not labeled. Also there's some 30ish music tracks. Would be great to be able to play the sound from the trigger/waypoint menu to see what you can use for your mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackandBlood 10 Posted September 4, 2009 Sorry is there already a way to do this that i'm missing? Cuz if not then so much audio resources will go untapped. I kinda expected a bit more support for this suggestion, in ARMA 1 i ended up making a mission where I just run through way points triggering the various sound effects so I would know whats useful. Pretty silly, and not practical for ARMA 2 which has several multitudes more audio resources. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackandBlood 10 Posted September 4, 2009 ok there must be an existing way to do this given the cold reception to this thread. Can someone please just tell me how, then this suggestion can be put to rest. There must be nearly 50 sound assets in the trigger/waypoint menu that have no description. No one sees the value of using the vast existing sound resources for their own missions? And being able to play said unlabeled assets from the editor itself?

JackandBlood 10 Posted September 9, 2009 So then i'll be making a 30 waypoint (one for each song) testing mission where I just listen to the music then take notes on what fits what mood then... Splendid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Splendid. Yeah, unfortunately that seems a pretty normal way to do things in this game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackandBlood 10 Posted September 10, 2009 Yeah, unfortunately that seems a pretty normal way to do things in this game... I see. Probably the last thing i'll allowed to post here. Just gave a summary of my editor/whole franchise grievances. Constructive criticism with some anger and vodka, This should go well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeMeSiS 11 Posted September 10, 2009 I just unPBO'ed music.pbo and coverted all the music to .mp3 so i can play them easily whenever i want to. The soundtrack is really good and i even wanted to make a 'The soundtrack is fucking awesome + poll' thread about it but i was too lazy. But anyways, it was worth the 'effort'.

JackandBlood 10 Posted September 11, 2009 I like the soundtrack in this game too. As much as I like my own music selection, vocals tend to not go with this sort of game. The tracks in ARMA 2 are very good, but there are 30 of them and mission makers arent going to utilize them if they cant sample them first. Not to mention the guesstimated 200 unlabeled sound assets... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
