Best use of Dolby Atmos for Headphones in MWIII/Warzone
For those using Dolby Atmos of Headphones, Try this tip and observe the difference in audio.
I'm not sure if anyone has posted a tutorial similar to this here, or on any other place, but here it is.
Step 1: Go to the config directory of MWIII/Warzone, for most it should be C:\Users\"Name of your user"\Documents\Call of Duty\players.
Step2: Open the file named "options.4.cod23" in NotePad or any avaliable text editor.
Step3: Scroll till you see "AudioWantedChannelsNumber:0.0 = "2" // 0 to 16".
Step4: change the "2 stereo" or "0 windows default" to "16". It should then look like this: "AudioWantedChannelsNumber:0.0 = "16" // 0 to 16"
Step5: Save and close the file.
Step6: If you have a license or are still in the demo period, open Dolby Access or install it from the Microsoft Store. The software will guide you on how to setup Dolby Atmos for headphones.
Step7: Click on the setting tap in the Dolby Access app and choose a preset. Personally I use any of the customs with surround virtualizer turned on.

My personal observations:
* The overall volume reduced.
* Sub Bass sounds from weapons of enemies and team mates are much punchier when close.
* Heavy thud sound when getting hit.
* Player gliding or parachuting sounds are much louder from further distance.
* ALL sounds are more directional.
* And Best of all, enemy foot steps sounds are much more distinct from other sound
