Congrats to Chammy for the tag and extra job! And thanks PR devteam for letting stuff like this happen! Will look forward to new realistic sound effects!
Way hey chammy! I played arma and thought it was all ****, downloaded your mod for the sound and thought that epic, however PR was better gameplay... Now you're here its the best of both worlds! Hooray!
Now without further adieu Get to work! :d rillserg hehe

Don't worry, I would just add some newer more natural sounding echo that would fit the enviourment a lot more. I mean, I would like to change the M16/M4's , the AK's, the FAL, M240, the M1A1's main gun, the RPG and AT4. But it would all be up to Jaymz. Hopefully we can add more bullet cracks, though, I 'd change the existing one that ArmA uses.

Yeah, the game play in Armed Assault is really clunky and a bit cumbersome but there are new Mods that have improved the game play really. I don't know what BIS was thinking, I think OFP is still better than Arma despite the graphics.
AS for a ArmA Sound mod I am working on, it will be a little later till I complete V2 of CSM, there will be at least 3 versions of it, an Urban, a more Commercial type, then one that has little echo cuz I had gotten some request to make one with little to no echo. All vehicles, aircraft, some foley, voices etc will be changed along with the radio sounds. Right now I have worked on a few sounds request by Jamez.

I have to say that the sounds Jaymz has made are really good.
But I agree some more work on them can make them even better. Now with Chammy on board, I bet you two guys will make PR even more atmospheric.
Can't wait for .8 any longer ...
PR mod needs more variations for Bullet Sound Effects:
very close passing bullet shot directly at you from close distance =
snapping sound like snapping fingers but louder & sharper;
the current pr mod sound would be better used as an effect for hitting soft/ loose objects like gravel or wood; the sound effect also needs a more percussive POP like snapping fingers
passing bullet NOT shot directly at you from close distance = snapping pop (slightly less snap, slightly more pop) with hissing sound
passing bullet shot directly at you from intermediate distance = less snap, more pop with slight whiz that fades quickly
passing bullet NOT shot directly at you from intermediate distance = less snap, more pop with more faint, but longer lasting whiz & hissing sound that fades out; it also has a very, very slight fade-in
passing bullet shot directly at you from far distance = whiz that starts abruptly with a soft percussive quality to it; it has a springy, buzzing sound to it that fades out quickly
passing bullet NOT shot directly at you from a far distance = a mosquito-like whizzing that fades in & fades out with some hissing; the fade-in & fade-out are relatively longer & more gradual; it also has a vibrating/ buzzing sound as it spins & tears through the air at slower speed
very distant bullets = you don't hear, [maybe a very, very faint hiss], OR, if a little bit closer, it will have a very quiet/ faint protracted whining sound that will fade in & fade out gradually; the volume of the whining sound still depends on the distance but if the bullet is whining, then it is shot from such a distance & oblique angle that would indicate that it was shot with no intention of being at you and is no threat to you or your position
*NOTE: the farther the bullet is OR the farther away the bullet is shot, the longer it will take for the buzzing, whizzing, & hissing to lower in pitch; think doppler effect - a truck passing on the freeway is a good example - if you're standing close to the road, it will fade in & fade out quickly and the pitch will rise & fall quickly; if you're standing far from the road, then the sound will fade in & fade out slowly and the pitch will rise & fall slowly
my guesstimate for the range of all these sound effects would be for bullets passing within about 100 meters
sound of bullet hitting flesh = loud slap; the closer the shot fired, the louder the slap
sound of bullet hitting chest = loud thump; the closer the shot fired, the louder the thump
also consider the materials worn on the part of the body that's hit (as well as what part of the body that's hit), i.e., consider the sound effects for the different hit-boxes, e.g., body armor vs. back pack, arm vs. leg, upper-leg thigh vs. lower-leg boot, helmet vs. face, padding vs. no padding, etc...

Im sure it could be improved but pr has the best bullet sounds of any game Ive played and it really shows now the shots are not perfectly accurate all the time

Yes, myself and Jaymz are currently or have already worked on that. The detail you discribe may not fully be emplemented. I had checked out the sound packages lately and I think the sounds used now for bullets are very good already, although, most are universaly used by most combat games out there. I have been supplying Jaymz with new stuff evry so often and so he has been the one determining what should stay or go. The next update should have some more changes. I have been working again with ArmA, fixing bugs in my CSM sound modm take a wisten to a couple of vids made by users:
the last one had a bug that is fixed now, evidently the versions of Armed Assualt , each either UK, US, Euro etc. versions had issues playing stock sounds at the time.
Family guy FTW!
Get to work! :d rillserg
