Category: | Landscape |
Question: | Sounds are relative to the camera, not to the avatar. Is this an oversight? While in "satellite mode" it'd be nice to hear yourself being eaten. Ni! |

Answer: | I don't think it's a bug. It was a decision. Your sound should be relative from your view. Even if your view is 300 feet back. That's one point of view. I could be swayed either way, however. Sean. |
