Sound Distances
2005-07-19, 1:19 AM #1
I have made a scope zooming cog but when I zoom away, the weapon's sound is muted. I checked the distances, the zoom can't be going anymore than 5 units away, but in playsoundthing(), I set the ranges to more than 10 units. Another thing that's also bugging me is that I'm not even changing the camera's position to another position, but by using SetPovShake(), so I'm guessing I should hear the sounds like I was still at the player's position. I can't seem to figure out why the sounds only play at a close distance, then stop at longer distances, this is very bad for the realism of my mod.

Sound units aren't in JKUs. Sound unit ~= 1/10.5 JKU is about the best idea of a sound unit we have. So, the sound will fade at about 1 JKU by that calculation.

Thank you very much, it works now. Now if only JK would convert to metric
