No engine sound for planes?
Since a month or so the engine sound of planes is nearly unexistant. Is this a bug happening to me or it is happening to you also?
This applies to every plane, also the one i am controlling not just enemies or allies. It is curious but it does not happen on tanks, so i cannot just "turn the volume up" because when using a tank i could become deaf

Do you have any outdated mods installed?

I installed a new one a few days ago but even before that my sounds are all here.

i have no mods installed for this game
I don't know why but CAS in this game is super quiet compared to how loud they are IRL... You don't know any CAS is near you until you get killed by them.

imagine how quiet they are for me, if i cannot even hear my own engine hahah. I cannot play AA tanks because of that...
A solution could be just to volume up, but then the noise of your tank and other tanks will dissable your hearing for the rest of your life. I do not know what to do with this. When piloting a plane do you hear your engine clear and loud?

All I can hear since the update is my own vehicles even with it on the lowest sound setting. I can't hear CAS , enemy or friendly vehicles at all.

Yea Gaijin wanted to endorse green energy, so they made all vehicles electric! They have no active engine sounds true to real life!

I have no sound at all after a reboot.

Some planes are not having engine sound and 90% of all bombs/missiles do not have sound

Hey, i've installed custom RWR sound mod, and my engine and guns as well as RWR sounds are gone. I've made a backup file of these ".bank" files, but bringing them in the sound directory just doesn't fix the issue. Did you managed to fix this problem somehow?

This is not a plane or bomb issue. Gaijin sound mixing is borked across the board. I've had silent tanks sneak up on me all the time. literally watch any Spookston video you're bound to see examples

got kill by a cobra once, wasn't noticing the sound of the helo untill he was right above me.

I thought it was a bug, and I'm not the only one aparently
bobrasius Jun 24, 2023 @ 4:57pm 
The thing is that i just can't hear MY engine and gun sounds.
bobrasius Jun 24, 2023 @ 5:05pm 
"Verify integrity of game files" option fixed the problem.

it has nonsense. The most noiseful vehicles of the game are the most silent ones? WTF happens to Gaigin?
