Title: Engine Sound Bug
Post by: ssmit132 on July 18, 2007, 03:39:38 am
This is just something I noticed today. I was playing a mission in which the default loadout had Alpha wing in Terran Maras. I gave myself a Serapis, and Alpha 2, 3 and 4 Perseus interceptors. When I got into the mission, I heard that Alpha 2, 3 and 4's engines were still emitting the Shivan sound, like the Terran Mara. It's not a huge bug, but something I wanted to point out. :nod:

Wait a minute, you said you put Pereseus as wingman loadout. I remember you don't have Perseus as loadout...

My guess is because the Maras (Terran) are noted as Terran in the ship.tbl. The sound.tbl is set that every Terran ship has Terran engine sound. Therefore, the Maras engine sound is supposed to be Terran. But then the makers changed the sound of each ship to be Shivan. So then you get shivan engine sound now. However, this applies for the whole loadout, meaning whichever ship you chose would have the shivan sound.

This is a theory. I personally don't know if this is true, I don't even know if this could be done, because I'm am currently 385km away from FS2. It may be a bug, or it may be not.

 :confused: I'm not playing 'Into the Lion's Den', if that's what you mean.

Which mission were you playing? Be sure to include that info in the Mantis report.
