Post by Dux Limitis »

As the title said,some times when light troop type units get into melee but don't play melee sounds no matter melee with other light troops or other troops.

They normally do, but they aren't as loud as the sounds for non-light units. (Because there are less of them).

I know,but I means sometimes they don't play that "not loud sounds" like in FoG2:Ancient,that means,entirely no sounds.I believe that was a bug,if the forum can let the users upload the video then I'll show that.

I don't think it can, but you could host it somewhere else and link it.

No link could be used mister,could you try it in game editor to look into it?

I did already. If it sometimes doesn't work there must be special circumstances. Your video could help to discover what those special circumstances are.

Not sure why you cannot use a link, plenty of people are doing so.

However, I would note that only one close combat sound effect is played for the combat, and if one of the units is elephants or mounted troops, their sound effect will take precedence. Perhaps that is the cause in your example?

I checked again with the editor,and checked my laptop,it seems something wrong with my laptop's sound card because I tried on my desktop at home and that works well,It's my mistake,sorry for the trouble.

By the way,when I browsing the editor I found there was an early massed crossbowmen unit(Crossbowmen 30),if the game could use that for the 11-12th century's army lists which have crossbowmen will be more accurate.And there's also a offensive spearmen unit with heater shields(No.39 if I'm right,same number with the kite shield spearmen,strange.),if use them in the later Scandinavian army lists will be more historical accurate too,for now only the Scots(Isles and highlands) used them even from the 1050ad(In that time the heater shield not appeared yet),these scots who lived in remote places should not use that type of shields in that period,replace them with kite shields-armed spearmen should be more reasonable,and later with heater shields.
