David Aitken Posted July 31, 2000 Share Posted July 31, 2000 I'm running CM on a Mac, and I know that the Mac version uses Apple's SoundSprocket, so I don't know whose fault this is. However: The sound volume balance in CM seems to be WAY off. In a scenario with rain, I can barely hear anything for the rain and thunder. Where there are vehicles, the engine sound is pervasive, and the biggest of explosions are nothing more than audible - not exactly earth-shattering. And burning vehicles are deafening, especially when I move the camera over them. Now, this is not at the point of being a bug. There is nothing specifically WRONG - I can still play and enjoy the game without worrying too much. However, I feel the impact would be much greater if the actual sounds of battle were a bit more prominent. Rather than ambient sounds being too loud, I think gunfire, explosions and such are too quiet. I would rather like it if, when there's a barrage falling, the ground really were shaking to the explosions - not thunder, or rumbling engine noises, or crackling fires. Is this something that could be tweaked, BTS? Thanks David 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted July 31, 2000 Share Posted July 31, 2000 What type of Mac do you have? What version of system software? What version of Soundsprocket? Charles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big Time Software Posted August 2, 2000 Share Posted August 2, 2000 I suspect that there is something seriously screwed up with the latest SoundSprocket. I find that the older version (v1.0) works better. You may want to install it. http://asu.info.apple.com/swupdates.nsf/artnum/n11167 Charles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My enjoyment of Combat Mission, which was already unparalleled, has just increased tenfold. WOWEE. I'll pass this info on to the main forum. =) David P.S. You might want to put this in your FAQ?
