Basically when I'm flying a capital class vessel (usually the big ones, like destroyers and carriers) I find it much easier (and prettier) to fly around and do battle in third person (external view). However, when flying in third person I can't seem to hear anything that's close to my ship, all weapons (both my own and those of others) and explosions are silent when in battle.
Unless I'm mistaken, there's probably some sort of audio falloff range where sound beyond a certain distance isn't audible (obviously to prevent annoying players with everything that goes on in an entire system). But it seems that rather than having the falloff range begin at my ship, it's attached to the camera instead which really irks me when commanding large ships.
Basically what I'd like to ask is if there's any way I make it so this 'falloff range' begins at my ship? Or is there already something available (a mod, anything at all) that has it so I can actually hear things going on around my ship when flying large vessels?
I've tried searching all over the Internet for days on end, and every time I come back to playing X3 Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude I'm always checking to see if someone else has asked about this or created a solution. Since so much time has gone by with literally nobody else even talking about it yet (at least from what I can see over time), I thought that I might as well finally ask here myself.
I'd really appreciate any help or guidance.
Thanks in advance.
