    We had problems the last couple of releases with sounds in our POT (mostly not hearing the ocean sounds). Today with the new release, there are no ocean sounds. Also, I am hearing rain sounds but it's not raining (at 3:36pm EST on 4/28).

    The SFX being missing from the scene is a known issue. However, the rain sound is not. Out of curiosity, what are your video settings? On the faster settings, the visual effects for Rain are not applied, but you would still hear it.

    Oh sorry, Attenwood. Totally forgot:

    My system is
    AMD FX 8320 8-core w/8gb RAM
    Video card is AMD Radeon R9 200 w/4gb RAM

    Current setting in game
    Video is set on "Fastest"

    I have had this same setting since I first started and have never heard rain without seeing it.

    If you saw the rain while on Fastest settings, that would be the bug in this instance, as a previous release disabled the visuals due to performance settings.

    So to clarify, not seeing the rain while on fastest setting is not a bug. So how do I get to see rain? o_O

    I would like some clarification on my bug post and question.

    Is it a known bug that on the fastest setting, I can't see rain? Or is that the way it's intended? If the latter, how do I get to see rain?
