Hi all,
While searching for documentation on bistudio.com i discovered this website where bis explain to potential customers their services like linda, 3d rendering, motion capture, etc... take a look to the gallery
http://pro.bistudio.com
Btw, Placebo, i read that BIS works with Weta Digital, can you (if possible and non NDA signed) explain what kind of work you made with them (for people who dont, know, they are the responisble of Lord of the rings FXs)

Let BIS make the engine, the community creates the game.
I am very impressed by this:

But why are the default weapon-sounds so bad in Arma2 (Ok much better than in Arma1)?
For Arma2 they didn't recorded live firing sounds?
I was always having the impression that BIS buys sound-samples from other companies....
It seems we can have a Arma-Party here:

Marek Spanel: [...] Every single element is well taught so that it fits together. So this is a significant change, because with ArmA 1 it was just random, really.
We made some units because we had to. There wasn't much passion from our side with the first ArmA, to be honest. This time it's different. (Videogamer.com Interview
Please BIS: Arma2 must become a TRUE MASTERPIECE - Not a middle-heavy catastrophe!

I think that the impresion of the bad sound are made from many listening of incorect sounds from other games or movies? It's very common to change the sounds in games so they sound more harder, or interesting. And sounds from movies maybe sounds different because they are edited or fired blank rounds?Originally Posted by mr.g-c

Not sure what theyre supposed to sound like, however after installing the vops sound addon, the sounds are simply amazing...the cracking of bullet hitting near your position is awesome....and now when someone opens up near me, i alomst sh*t my pants, esp if nearby buildings...this game is the greatest. thanks again for the great game BI!

Umm... Why don't any of their games sound like this?

Well, perhaps because shown audio recording session was for Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead, and that game is not out yet?There were already few real world recording sessions and more are planned. We hope in the finished game it will be worth the effort but you have to wait few more months.
On the other hand, one of the problems is that you may need to make our games sound louder than rest in order to hear it the way we made it.
To get a bit better understanding, we prefer to keep full dynamic range of real world over dynamic compression (that is considered as great sound by many users for some reason: they perceive the sound louder but there is a price paid: loss of detail and accuracy). This is quite interesting general problem not affecting only games, probably best illustrated here:

Wow. That certainly makes me want OA even more. Awesome news, Marek.
what you think about add more sample to gun??
first_person_sound
near_sound
far_sound
???
Thats intresting. But somehow I find the sounds of A2 too dynamic in volume to put my amplifier to a high level. Sometimes I cant hear my own car engine, but when a jets flys by, my speakers allmost explode. While it may be realistic, its not really suitable for casual gaming
