ICAM Mode: Directional Audio Settings Not Functioning Correctly Since Dawntrail
Hello everyone
,
I'm experiencing an issue with audio playback/performance using /knips or /icam, which seems to have been disrupted since the Dawntrail update.
Brief Description of the Issue:
In Final Fantasy XIV, since the Dawntrail update, the directional audio setting in ICAM mode (idling camera) no longer functions correctly when the "Simulate Sound Source" option is set to 100% for the "Character."
I regularly stream player events that feature bard bands and use ICAM mode to make the stream visually more dynamic while ensuring consistent audio.
Before the Dawntrail update, the audio remained stable when the "Simulate Sound Source" option was set to 100% for the "Character" in the audio settings. This meant that even when the ICAM changed the camera angles, the sound stayed consistent (no directional shifts or volume fluctuations).
However, since the Dawntrail update, the audio in ICAM mode jumps from left to right and changes in volume, as if the sound is tied to the camera rather than the character, even though the setting is still set to the character. This results in inconsistent audio playback, which is especially problematic for streams where stable audio output is crucial.
I have tested this behavior on three different PCs. When standing in front of a bard and activating ICAM, the sound constantly jumps from right to left and vice versa, getting louder or quieter depending on the camera position.
I've been using the ICAM function for several years, and I didn't experience this audio jumping issue before Dawntrail.
It would be great if someone could take a look and fix this issue
Best regards
