BaD JoKe Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Hiya all! I have a little set of new sounds for the mighty .50 cal. I wasn't happy with the ones that came with the original game and I started to work on my own set. As there are undoubtfully more experienced people participating in this forum in matters of WWII weaponry and modding, I would like some more info on this monterous weapon from these magnificent individuals. Were there any difference in sounds between .50 cals used in tanks and .50 cals used by infantry? :confused: Thanks in advance! BaD JoKe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Deadmarsh Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Is it possible for someone to record the 50 cal in Close Combat 2 and make it available for CM? That was the most awesome, deadly gun sound I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prinz Eugen Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Wasn't the MG 42 in CC 2 awesome aswell ? TRRRRRT-TRRRRRRT !! That sound really made you run for cover !!! In that game MG's had a much more pronounced role than in CMBO, but, as we all know it'll be fixed in BB ! REALLY looking forward uopon hearing the improved sound effects in action, especially the Soviet DshK 12,7 mm MG...Oh, and the US-made HT with the four .50 MGs, wonder what that baby sounds like ( not mentioning the effect in the adversary !!! ) ? :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaD JoKeI can't think of a vehicle that mounted the .50 cal internally, so as such it would sound the same - except for the cursing. I've never fired a .50 cal that wasn't mounted on a large tracked vehicle but I have done everything but fire the .50 cal from the tripod. The tripod is designed with shoes that are supposed to dig into the dirt. Now you can dislodge the tripod from the dirt just trying to cock the damm thing, so I imagine it would come out of the dirt fairly easily while firing it, and when it does, well you could just imagine the cursing. Hmmm. Maybe that's why they only let us fire the thing mounted on a vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 50 cal. is a 50.cal, doesnt matter where its firing from. And I still havent heard a wave. that sounded like the real deal. I'd record my Berret going off, but I don't have the equipment or know how, and it would have to be worked into an automatic stacato (mine is a single shot bolt action). The 50 MGs I shot in the navy (deck mounted) had about a 4 round per second rate of fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaD JoKe Posted August 18, 2002 Author Share Posted August 18, 2002 Actually I have 2 alternatives for .50 cal, one witch actually resembles tank MGs in Band of Brothers Carentan episode (Whee! Look at those beautifull babies pouring it away!). But because I'm just a lazy bum, I have no idea where to stuff these. Any ideas? Anyone? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talenn Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 I'd love to have it too if its not too much trouble... smalczak@erols.com... I always loved the .50 cal sound in CC2 and felt that it conveyed the appropriate terror. Thanx, Talenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanDefinitely keep folks informed as to where this ends up or if it gets posted somewhere. I'm always on the lookout for better sounds. Especially MG sounds. Or, you can just send it directly to my email address if you can't find a permanent home for it I'd appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
