    Yeah, running it through a compressor should work. Maybe I should set something like that up… I’ve had issues hearing certain people talk on YouTube when my air conditioner turns on. It’s infuriating if I’m watching an interview or something with multiple people speaking and their mics are at completely different levels so I can only hear one person or get blasted every time they speak.

    For anything cinematic, the intent is usually to get more dynamic range. If you turn it up enough that the dialogue is audible, then the explosions will be as loud as an actual explosion. Fine in a movie theater, not so much in an apartment complex.





  • I don’t really have a link, but you might be able to find something talking about game server protocols. Outside of LAN, usually you’re either connecting to a central server, or a peer relay. With a relay server it’s just a proxy between you and the other players to hide your IP from others.
    There’s plenty of cases in games that didn’t do this where malicious actors could find the IPs of the people they’re playing with and DDoS them to give themselves an advantage. Knowing someone’s IP will also probably tell you extra info about them like what city they’re in, and open them up for further hacking.
