sound mod

[ONI.au]

just so you guys know bk and i are putting a sound mod together getting as many 16 bit stereo sounds for ArmA as possible due to most of the sounds in game and the sound packs available mostly being 8 bit flat pieces of junk so wait soon and hiopefully we will have a 16 bit stereo sound mod for anyone who would like it for their instalation of ArmA

[ONI.au]

we have made some serious progress and hopefully will have everything sorted in a short time

Sounds cool.

[Swordsman]

ill give it a run once its finished mate - use chammy's at the moment, and most others sound very fake / hollywood / retarded mexican schoolgirl-ish.

look forward to it.

Can't wait for a GOOD sound mod to be available, Please get a good sound for the vehicle mounted .50 cal guns, the existing ones sound more like a BB gun.

With you ex-service boyz on the job the finished mod should sound like liquid gold.

Waiting patiently

US weapons are done just a matter of eastern block weapons now and all will be well

we got the sound pack finalised tested it and found that stereo sounds remove directional sensing in game at closer ranges so we are changing the sounds back to mono but at a better quality than was previously available ,we also have some custom grenade explosions we put together and some custom sounds we have worked on for the sound pack that both myself and bk think eveyone will like

big kudo's though to bk he was the real brains behind the sound mod i was just a tester and finder of the sounds he resampled them and adjusted them to suit the quality that the game can handle effectively

nice work bro


ps:the sound mod will be ready in a few days once we have completely tested and got the bugs out so expect great sound in game we found the best we could if we couldnt find it we made it ourselves

[ONI.au]

sound mod is complete after some major rebuilding due to the games inefectivety to deal with stereo sounds at short range(we had to change to mono sounds ) but all we have to do is now slightly tweak a few sounds but our sound mod as far as together is complete its just down to the fine tune on one or two weapons now
but big thanks to BK for editing and doing the configs
nice work man

[ONI.au]

for all intensive purposes the sound mod is complete and we have tested it very successfully amongst several players who use different sound mods and we have had the same reaction "bloody fantastic"
so well done BK on a great sound mod without you we couldnt have completed it

[Swordsman]

the mod is bucking frilliant guys sharing it amongst the AEF guys as we speak, so ill have their reactions in a day or so if not sooner

[ONI.au]

well the last minute fixes are done (we fixed the reload sound for the m24 and the silencer for the silenced ak74 and the m249 saw fire) and with that the sound mod is complete all the small arms for the pack are complete and we wont be working on the soundpack again till we can get enough explosion sounds together to redo that side of the pack although they are already quite nice some need a little attention to get better sound quality
other than that i would like to thank our play testers
swordy
zoli
ghost
jimbo
and myself

and sound designers Fromz BK and myself for a nice mod

we found another few issues guys thanks for the feedback
the issues found
svd louder than both barret and KSVK
no reload sound for KSVK
these issues will be fixed momentarily and we will be fixing the pbo's names as soon as we finalise ALL the sounds and any issues (if you find any issues please post them here so we can fix them)
at this stage we have done all the m16 variants ,ak variants ,rockets including the javelin and the sniper rifles, we have also done the 50cal mounted and dshkm,the ags30, the mk19,the 203 and gp25(plus all thier reload sounds)and we did the grenade throw +explosion for it.
we havent touched the pistols as we checked the sounds for them and they were fine as is and we havent touched any other of fromz sounds as yet till we can find better sampled sounds for those effects till then the current changes are in effect
and we will have the known issues fixed very soon

[ONI.au]

ok fixes done and i did the pistols just for good measure
swordy has the up to date files and is testing them for me now
touch wood we dont find anymore hickups at this stage
hopefully very soon bk and i will be looking at the explosions and choosing from the 2000 or so sounds we have just for the explosions and find the ones we want

[Captain Wolf]

Can you post a link to the new version please?
