Sound channel stacking option?

Post by Gannon Banned »

Ok, Let me start by clarifying this and what it's about as best as I can. When you have a high rate of fire weapon or a monster that rapidly plays a sound it cancels out the sound it makes when playing the same sound again. But in some console Dooms (Like the playstation version) The sounds stack in the channels instead of canceling and starting over again when played again before being completed. And that can make for a smoother sounding fire for weapons and so forth. An option for that as far as I'm aware shouldn't be too hard of a thing to code. Though I can understand if it's not possible.

If anything, I think this should be an option for Decorate weapons - +WEAPON.EXTRAFIRECHANNEL, perhaps?

This sounds very helpful. Even with a rather decent soundcard, I still have this trouble. Sometimes the sounds don't even play at all because they are being cancelled out before actually making any sound at all.
