I have been tinkering away and sampling various sounds and turning them into something suitable for HCE!

 

And for my efforts I bring you the attached file which contains several brand new sounds for HCE in the form of a Mod.

 

Just backup your sounds folder and spill the contents of this zip into it.

 

This Mod includes:

 

- New jet takeoff sound

- New prop takeoff sound

- New helicopter takeoff sound

- New missile launch sound

- New torpedo launch sound

- New torpedo hit sound

- New explosion\hit sound

- New gunfire sound

 

Please give this a whirl and let me know what you think.

 

Also please dont just listen to the sound file, please give me some feedback about the game experience with them, as that is the most important aspect.

 

Please DO NOT distribute this as it is a beta!

 

Many thanks

Fantastic! I definitely understand what you are saying about the game chopping off the missile launch sound, not very pleasant though I think that will have to wait until the next patch.

 

All of the sounds play fine on my machine, I'm a bit worried that the files may be too large for some sound cards. It might pay to search the Matrix and HG forum for people who had trouble with sounds not playing (it was because the files were too large) and see if they'll test your work.

All the sounds play fine here. As an old CV sailor, I can say they sound authentic as well. I still remember the days of the old PC internal speaker, and its next to useless output. A sound blaster was an immediate purchase for me as soon as it became available. As to the gaming experience, many players often take the sound for granted as something that's just "there". Try playing the game with your speakers unplugged sometime, and you'll see how much it contributes to the enjoyment of playing.
