there is no difference between how weapon sounds are treated, depending on the weapon. i did tests in BA, and i would think that lasers are affected less, but they surely are affected, which gets clear with eg "/set snd_airAbsorption 0.5". possible explanations: * fireSoundVolume of lasers is a lot higher/lower then for other weapons * due to the nature of laser sounds all this combined with imperfect distance calculations used by OpenAL (performance reasons). .. something like that. would be good if you could make tests with different sounds for different units. eg, give plasma sound to a laser unit and vise versa, if you care enough. ;-) |

Could you please give this a go with the allterrain units in evo revision 598+? The laser sounds are the same volume no matter if you're 2 feet away or 2 miles in the air. |

did you try this? /set snd_airAbsorption 0.5 this is not about the volume (which is not currently configurable this way -> harder to test). will check with lasers in evo. |

i tested with evo with the immolator. indeed, it does not matter for distance to camera. neither the volume nor the air-absorption. so it is surely not a problem with air-absorption, but with the distance calculation not working or not applies cause of some reason. What currently seems most likely to me, is that something is different with the used sound file. for example, it might be stereo, while all the others are mono. please try using the same sound file for other units/weapon types, and see what happens. .. or.. just compare the details of the sound files, where it might differ from the rest. |

Ok problem is solved. Valid sound formats for use with spring are: 8bit mono and 16 bit mono (Do not use stereo!) |
