Warnig Sounds

"When an air attack is expected the sirens will sound a rising and failing note".

This would be very great if it happened with the message of an atomic enemy attack: "launch detected".

:D

If it's such a good idea why don't you make it so via a mod

Have a look at my Air Raid Siren mod, it adds a classic World War II air raid siren shortly after the first nuclear missile launch of each nation. You'll lurve it...

Having it sound when an enemy bomber's spotted by your land-based radar would be better ;)

It would probably get a tad annoying, hearing that wailing sound for basically the whole game...

Air Raid Siren

It only sounds once per player, so each time a nation goes nuclear for the first time in the game it wails. In a three player game, you would hear it twice (you don't hear it for your own first strike)...

Not yours, goddammit!

I was referring to Masaq's point, that it would sound when an enemy bomber was detected.

how about replacing the "launch warning" sound in the game with the norad in-house alert "arroooooooga!" siren like in the movie... when they first got the missle warning of the ICBM's coming in the movie, targeted for seattle and los vegas. I think that would be appropriate.

i'd do it myself but I don't know how to make mods.
