Hi guys I am playing around in the mission editor with custom audio files to be played. There is a huge issue though. The in-game volume does not adjust 3rd party audio files.

 

So if you would be kind enough to "vote" for what you have your il-2 audio volume set to that would be helpful. This is the IN-GAME volume %, not your windows volume %!

 

If most people use a certain range I can adjust my custom audio to fit the in-game sound volume and perhaps make this work decent somewhat.

100% then use the volume control on the 7.1 system.

I use just 3% in game settings to hear TS and/or Discord.

Game sound is a little bit loud!!

Unless things have changed, turning down the in game volume means you lose certain effects. Keeping it at 100% and adjusting it in Windows means you keep the effects and still adjust it to match your TS preferences.

I find max game volume I can't here people on discord as volume is too quiet on coms, and u just can't make it high enough to hear over the game.

 

I'd like the game to have a master volume control and one for inside cockpit.

So these results are what I expected and feared... Until the game volume adjust the Media MCU playback as well this is going to annoying. People won't hear it who play at 100% and headphone users who play at 10% will get REKT...

100% in game, adjust in OS.

using 8% ingame sound volume

Yeah based on these results and how the game doesn't adjust volume... I have scrapped the idea of using custom audio completely. 

 

thanks everyone

Same here, I have game audio at full and use windows to drop the volume down to 3%. Anything over 3% and hearing teamspeak/discord is almost impossible while using my surround sound headphones. I like the realism of the loudness and reducing the sound is an acceptable adjustment for me to keep the realistic audio level. Though pilots and tankers would wear headphones while operating the vehicles to reduce noise.

I believe it would be a nice nice feature for a button key to enable or disable the pilot/tanker's headphone muffling in game as well.
