New Distant Sounds

[Aquiller]

Is this with EAX on?

[LEEROY_UK]

love the new sounds , also is that a new zeroing system i see for the nade launcher ? Maybe for other weapons too ?

[Adriaan]

Truly amazing those sounds! It just sounds... Realistic

[Kilgore.dfa]

What will happen after v1.0 release?

What will happen after v1.0 release?

nobody know that.

Sounds are amazing.But if variety will increased a little more would be good.

[rampo]

The new nade sounds are EPIC! gotto be the most realistic firing sounds ive ever heard in a game

[Anderson29]

very good work..but i think the explosions needs to be louder IMO. maybe its just the video but i could bearly hear the nade landing 150m away. keep up the good work guys

[Arnoldio]

Nade sound is somplete win,. From 0.95 on im just throwing nades all around the place.

[HunterMed]

The sounds are very cool! especially the grenade explosions

[ralfidude]

explosions are pure win. But the crackling of the guns is still off isnt it? IMO its still an improvement over what we have fo sho.

For example at 2:51 in this:
YouTube - Afghanistan War Footage: ANA and Marines in Firefight. (HiDef)

or this since the beginning:
YouTube - Afghanistan War Footage: US Forces Ambushed at Darbart, Afghanistan (HiDef)

Even this:

PS: I understand that sound quality and environment play a role in how a sound should sound though.

There's no signs of the devs slowing down or wrapping things up yet so you can safely assume they'll continue beyond 1.0.

All 1.0 really means in the context of PR is that it's a later version than 0.95.

Somehow I think this distant sounds update is way better than the previous one!

I haven't really been in a warzone or anything but judging from many videos, it sounds very realistic.

I don't know if the 1st person sounds might have been tweaked also?

When the AK was firing I felt a tiny bit shocked.. maybe because it was coming through speakers rather than headphones?

[=Romagnolo=]

Awesome!

I still can't understand how the public that doesn't like PR. Seriusly, look (in this case, listen) to what the DEVs (and cons and testers and all the team) are doing to a 2005 game. Amazing.


Congrats.

All 1.0 really means in the context of PR is that it's a later version than 0.95.

Well from what I know, PR v1.0 means that the British faction (which is the main faction in the eyes of the DEVs) is at it's end stage. Armor, weapons, equipement, kits, etc are completed.
Project Reality started as a platform to experiment changes twords realism and theyr impact in the BF2 engine.
I quote from the "ABOUT" section on this web-site:
"The ultimate goal continues to be the path to develop and release Project Reality v1.0, a stable and complete build which will be a markedly increased step up from the Project Reality Mini-Mod beginnings. This will include a complete British faction, including their various soldier classes, weaponry, vehicles and assets, as well as additional factions created by the community with help from the core developers."

I don't know if the 1st person sounds might have been tweaked also?

When the AK was firing I felt a tiny bit shocked.. maybe because it was coming through speakers rather than headphones?

Again, from what I know, the 1st person weapon sounds are how they are supposed to be (how you would hear that surtoun type of weapon firing in real life). The distant sounds were the problem , but, Jaymz in all his awesomeness fixed that problem, as these distant sounds are pretty damn close to those you would hear in real life (if not exactly).

[killonsight95]

i was wondering could sounds be turned into projectiles to make them bounces off the terrain?

[Zrix]

Very nice indeed. Would have liked a little more "snap" in the machine gun sounds though.

Edit; Well the snap is there, but a little muffled.

[Nosferatu]

Our sound department is nothing less than awesome
I really hope that work with distant sounds in ArmA won't be damaged because of lack of supporting EAX. Like many guys here I'm using X-Fi, you know.

[DkMick]

Sounds good even on my crappy desktop speakers at work.

[BloodyDeed]

obviously too many changes for a 0.92x version

sounds great, cant wait to play with my x-fi I really prefer good sound to graphic.

[karambaitos]

Awesome!

Congrats.

people say they dont like it "because it takes forever to get to a place" and i say to them YOUR A MORON
they also compare it to BC2 *ugh*


seriously though awesome sounds i love how you made sound travel so you hear the explosion half a second or a second after it happens, i love that
