Is there any way of turning off the "Instant Intelligence Report" of
what has just fired
which weapon at you?
I find this the least 'realistic' part vs the AI (and Human{?} players). The sound gives you an impression of what blew your scout car etc apart:
[Light/Medium/Heavy A/Tk =
CRACK /
BANG /
BOOM] (I can't be bothered to look up the correct sound file names, but I'm sure you get the picture.)
I know the section in the manual that suggests "spoofing" other players by re-naming weapons & systems.
ie:
"MacDonalds
fires bombardment
with
"Big Mac & Fries (Supersize)"
This obviously won't work with other people's scenarios/campaigns unless you hack in and spoil the whole surprise!
As things stand I turn the sound "Off", go with the instant cheat /recon/intelligence and crank my (ancient) Stereo up to "11" whilst I'm playing. Hawkwind can be very soothing during stressful assaults!
Seriously though, any help/hints?
