You won't get much feedback around here, but these sound GREAT.

 

I'm glad to have another sound modder around here. 

Thank your, as far i noticed you are quite the contributor here. I like your missions 😘

Well, we typically have a start shot, the loop shots that receive a minor pitch treatment, and a last shot with reverb. We can't do that for all burst fire weapons however because of limitations of the total number of sounds that can be played/mixed simultaneously (obviously, an intense infantry battle with multiple MG3s etc. can produce a lot of simultaneous sounds).

 

Version 5 will get a new sound engine, of course. But even then it'll take some time to process all our original recordings again, and to add missing/extra material.

In the past it also became a memory issue, as all sounds must be kept in RAM for zero-delay playback.

Looking forward to V5, it will pleasure for my ears and especially my eyes(new UI). Thanks for the insight 🙂

The Squad only get its if you assign the ammunition. 

 

If you don't assign automatic rifle ammo then they will only fire single shots.

Good to know

X_rpk?

Yes, you are right, I overlooked that one. That soldier is a real rambo wielding an rpk and rpg7 at the same time 🤣

I have one issue: squad leader(or rpg7 gunner) of a finish rifle squad has his own small arms sound and i cant figure out what it is. Normal riflemans sounds are covered by my mod but this one,...i dont know. Maybe it should represent a krinkov ak which is not on the list, i dunno...

list of covered files:

small arms 2 to 8

a_M60Lmg
a_M240

Maybe, but it allows us to play the sound exactly in sync with the number of fired rounds, particularly if the player holds the trigger.

Yes, indeed. Could be worked around by playing varieties of the same shot. Repeating the exact same shot with the tail end (reverb, echo) makes it quite artificial. But nothing would  substitute auto fire recording wich would be needed in the proper fire rate to every single weapon. In short, this simulation doesn't need more and i am complaining about something which is not important at all 😋

All single, BUT it will play looped for the automatic weapons embedded in the Rifle Squad (if you give them the ammo)

Hmm, looped single shots sound terrible, but lets work with what we have

I tried out some just to find out that some small arms do not share those files. For ar15 weapons, they do not use smallarms sounds, but with something else. In the other hand G36 do use them. Man, the naming is all ever place. I assume that was for backward compatibility sake.

0-4 are for 5.56mm / NATO

5-8 are 762x39mm / AK / WARSAW Pact stuff

Damn you are fast. Thanks. 😋 Are those single shots or are loops included?

Does anyone knows to what small arms those sound file names refer too? Most names are self explanatory, but those are not. I don't even know if they are for salvo fire or single shot.

I really dont think RU will invade.

Neither did I 😅

Found a German manual with many pictures including tactical unit symbols of all the vehicles. Official manual has no picture references at all? Anyways, i am lucky with my language skills and made a sheet on my own.

Gforce Experience is installed (card is RTX 3060ti) but I'm not aware of using an overlay. 

I had the same issue and it was caused by the overlay. Go to the setting, deactivate it and then try again.

Do you use Gforce Experience overlay?

Generic Coax MG External (be aware that most tanks share the same sound in that case, that is why, I kept it as generic as possible):

For detailed information i refer to FM 101-5-1, but does anyone has some kind of overview table of all (platoon/section/single units)

Especially symbol of single units still confuse me a lot. Thanks for the material

If i am not mistaken, Germany avoided ERA because of the hazardous nature. But the new Puma uses ERA blocks on the sides, otherwise it would not reach the weight/protection requirement goals.

What was the recording source? Maybe they picked up some reverb in the original recording.

I use library sounds and live fire recordings. However, with explosions i tend to use more library sounds, because recordings explosions is quite complicated and usually recorded with some distance with reverb. Most recordings are overdriven and flat sounding. Artist in me no like like
