Daidalos Team - Engine sounds

[csThor]

Personal opinion: Don't expect it. For sure I'd not support slapping any of the available sound packs into the engine, unless it can be guaranteed that there is no chance of anyone making a copyright claim against 1C:Maddox Games and ultimately Daidalos. We don't have a six-digit sum ready just for that case. Do you? But that's just one aspect. Quality and the way sounds interact with the game engine are another (which I have no idea of).

And before anyone asks: I somehow doubt very much that we'd have the resources to make own recordings, unless Martin hasn't told us everything.

I think you are shooting yourself in the foot not doing anything about it. The very poor sound and the lack of 6DOF was the reson modding this game started. There are a lot of good sound engein out there. jafaem is the King of sounds engien and Im shure he would help you, if you wounld just ask.

For il2 I think it is too late , there are such drawn lines in the comunity that the adding of a new sound mod would cause alot of bitching to start all over again , best to leave it as is, it works well for both sides as it is, Sow....well the fact that the updates come with the statment that sounds (old OE il2 sounds )are only placeholders , sais oleg has read and uderstood the message .

Like I said ... Unless he can prove that none of the sound samples he used could cause a copyright infringement there's no chance TD will touch it. It's just too risky.
