Great work, but it can be hard to distinguish the blaster sounds from the music, sometimes the music was just to loud to have the weapon effects.
But keep up the work, as a MOW veteran and star wars nerd this is one of my most favorite mods to watch develop.
Yea I added the track afterwards and didn't further check/adjust the volume... and the heavy drums wasn't a good choice either lol :) But it's still easy enough to hear the effects at most parts and the idea was just to demonstrate them and not listen to them without any background noise.
So why this system?
1) You can hear distant gun shots, distant explosions and echoes from far away
2) Duo to that, silencers are alot more effective
3) The addition of bass sounds (which can be anything so basically its a secondary gun sound) allows you to mix components of SFX, instead of creating new sound files whenever you want to mix something
4) By far greater variety of sounds (because before you had just one pool of sounds to play a random one (firesound folder) and now you have up to 4 pools/folders because of each category)
5) I hated how echoes were part of the gun fire sound in the original, so that when you fire a burst of 10 shots you can hear those 10 echoes layered on top of each other. There is now just one echo at the end of a burst.
And not only that, it also made firesounds very long to play (several depending on the included echo effect). Now its just the pure gunshot, so very short, which is good for fast repeating weapons.
