Title: Unnerf Horse Sounds
Post by: seddrik on June 14, 2012, 04:27:59 am
Why horses are MORE quiet since a recent patch... I don't know. 

Its not realistic.  Big fat horses that are silent even as they run into ur face...

Its not reasonable. Horses are heavy, horse hoed, beasts.  If they wanna go stealth get off the horse.

Fix it please.  Even with sound turned up it doesnt help because now my squishy footsteps drown out even horse sounds when they are on top of me.

you can always open the sound file for horse hooves and just increase the volume of it in an audio editor

fixes it for me :D

One last breath the fourth winds blow
Better raise your ears
The sound of hooves knock at your door
Lock up your wife and children now
It's time to wield the blade
For now you've got some company

Unpossibru, Ninjas aren't allowed to use horses for combat.

This won't fix it at all.
You have to raise the sound priority, to hear the horse hooves also if many sounds are played.
The priority of all step-sounds(of humans and horses) is very low atm.

Sounds are played at a fixed position on the map and not on the moving agent(horse/player).
Because of this... you will hear the sound behind the moving horse.
