Like to hear some the old sounds again.

I did a search to see if anybody had posted this request and couldnt find one. I miss the old sounding pulse phasers. In fact that was the first thing I noticed about Fleetops after I went wow for awhile. The fleetops wave sound for pulse weaponry sounds more like artillery cannons to me radther than phasers. In fact today I went thru Armada 2s original sound folder and found my good old pulsed phaser sounds. I dont know about anyone else but I like the old one better and like to see them put back in for the ships that fire pulsed phasers...though the newer wave sound is good for outposts as it sounds more "heavy" and outpost would be capable of mounting "heavier" weapons.

If anyone else misses the old sound of pulsed phasers please chime up!!

I honestly don't remember what the old sounds sound like (grr, redundancy)... I'll have to go find that: any chance you can list the file extension name?

I agree that the current sound seems a little "heavy" for such a small ship.
The pulse phaser sound from DS9 seemed to change every episode, even sounded like romulan disruptors at one point. The episode where the breen destroyed the defiant have the sound from the original armada game. I think the pulse effect from First Contact sounds the most like phasers.

As long as the filenames are the same, changing the wav sounds shouldn't have any conflicts with mod compatibility. I have changed a lot of sounds myself with no trouble.
