Do Planets Still Make Sounds?

[idahosurge]

I just tried to listen to the sound of a planet to see if it was a ELW and there were not any sounds.

Did FD get rid of the sounds made by planets?

They should do. But keep in mind if you turn the Cartographic menu sounds off in the options it disables the planet sounds aswell as the music

Since version 2.1, I believe, the planet sounds also no longer occur if you're charging up the FSD. I know some speed-explorer CMDRs used to like to select the next system, press the "jump" button (to charge up the FSD) but don't throttle up, then load up the starmap. If you do this, you can no longer hear the planet sounds.

They do with proper foreplay. Low purring sounds. [wink]

And also if you hit them hard enough with the tail end of your python, from what I recall it was BOOOOOM!

You need to have music enabled for cartography in the audio options, but yes planets do still have distinctive sounds.

They do, I recently re-installed the game, (after a 2nd h-drive crash within a year), and the music option defaults to off.
