Doppler Effect

[Zane]

I noticed a while ago while mining that, if I were to put a bomb down and zoom in or out in 3rd person view, the tone of the "beep beep beep beep beep blam" would change.

Just recently figured out that it also does this with the FAP sound. (lol yes, FAP sound)

I think it's pretty amazing that they actually bothered putting in the Doppler Effect into the engine. Has anyone else noticed this?

Pretty sure the sound difference has been there for a long time........
But yes i have noticed

I didn't notice a doppler effect (sound frequency increasing or decreasing when you move towards or away from sound source), but I assume it can be the Cryengine or a hardware acceleration feature (independent of the engine).

You are hearing voices......

That's decrease of sound volume with distance from the sound source.
Doppler Effect is something entirely different.

And yes, it has always been like that, even long before VU 10

This Droppler effect was there for a very long time.I play in 3-rd mode and i'm shure about it.

No it's not a decrease in volume. I am fully aware of what the Doppler Effect is and this is the Doppler Effect.

When planting a bomb and zooming out, the tone of the beeps decreases and vice versa when zooming in.

If that impressed you.. set the sound up on a 5.1 home theater or higher using the opticle output of your sound card. Then you will go totally nuts.

When i'm running somewhere I zoom in and out just to relieve the boredom
When you do this the sound of your footsteps increase and decrease. This is very good for people who like to fidget. Gives them something to do...

Gotta say I noticed this a long time ago too.. But mainly with weapons while swing cam in and out and moving it around.
