Radio, it seems good but i have to say im not sure about the MG42 sound you used, it doesnt sound as mean as the real thing.

This is more what i think it should sound like


Also the PPSH sounds too slow..

Other than that its good!

I think improving the sound of the tanks as they drive and idle would be amazing.

Unfortunately, it is impossible. Game recognizes only one additional rfa file, so the only solution is to merge my pack with sound001.rfa.

Thanks for answer radio!
This is just a pet dream of mine but would it be possible to add headlights to vehicles? For night maps that would be really cool, plus for like people driving trucks it would be very useful. You could have an on/off switch that triggered them, they would just be there so you could see the road. smile Also could add them onto tanks and small utility vehicles. Not to mention it would be more realistic because most vehicles did obtain headlights. What do you guys think?

I found the way to do this. Just move sound_001.rfa to FHSW, FH or BF1942 folder, and mine .rfa to STFHSW, then it should work.

Update:



Download sound_001.rfa (lon the same link)

When there is already a file with the same name, rename it into sound_002
RADIOSMERSH
,
Are you sure that Battlefield only recognizes one extra .rfa file (sound.rfa, sound_001.raf)? In Mayer's post ( the quote above) he talks about renaming files _002, are you sure this isn't possible with your sounds?
