Haven't yet heard in game sounds, but these sound lacking in certain areas IMHO.

Next iteration perhaps. Jafa can do better. :)

Does he use real Merlin samples for incockpit sound?

Sounded like much lower HP radial to me but I never heard real Merlin and can be wrong.

Brilliant. I knew Jaffa would come to the rescue!

Jafa u are the man

THANK U VERY MUCH

And i think these will do nicly along with what bigpickle is doiong as well, and there 10 times better than the crap default sound:grin:

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the game sounds. Just amazing how much it adds to the realism. The correct sounds even make the video appear more photo realistic.

yep they are great...nice work

Doesn't sound like radial at all. I'm 99% sure he use real Merlin samples.

Db is coming tomorrow....

Ps- its just Jafa not jafaem but im not that picke or am I i i i o o po 0p opum....;);););););););););)

can't wait for DB.

I raised the issue of your brilliant mods in the main forum, but alas they have now locked that. must be a sensitive issue. maybe because they fed us some nonsense before the game was released about how they had gone out and recorded new sounds for the game from real aircraft.

you got any thoughts on whether your mods would violate any copywright issues?

Fantastic Great Job J S!

They recorded real engine sounds for some sound effects from a different engine that they then edited with some software, because:

1) getting a fully dynamic sound means recording through the entire RPM range

2) recording through the entire RPM range means a long running time for the engine

3) it's very expensive to run a 70 year old vintage engine with almost no supply of spare parts available anywhere in the world, especially at high power settings...they are meant to keep warbirds flying at airshows and even then, they run much more conservative settings than what we use in the sim to preserve engine life

I'm not saying i won't use sound mods if they are good and i'm not against modding if it has something to offer.

All i'm saying is that it's not exactly cheap to have real, authentic sounds: a developer studio will either have to shell out some top dollar to "rent" engine running time and record it themselves, or pay the copyright fees to use someone else's recordings. ;)

Great sound mod! Although I think the in-cockpit sounds might be too crisp considering that pilots were wearing headphones. Especially the guns.

I disagree, i think you should model the sounds as the human ear hears them (without helmet, receivors and insulating domes on). If you want to hear the sounds as a pilot would have, then wear a helmet! :)

Interesting point :) What about the option to put your virtual flying helmet on or off in game?

Ooh, nice suggestion! Not sure how hard it would be to model the sounds being muffled, but that is quite cool! :grin:

Tomorrow never dies...;)

in two weeks more or less

when can we down load these sound mods ..as im fed up with hearing nothing ...lol...

when its done

OK . promo is done its taken a while cos the launcher has crashed about a million times, it will be up tomorrow , now im off to work on my merry night shift at the airport , sleep tight you lucky bastards.:grin:

Nice, Cant wait:grin:

Hi Guys sound very nice :), just 1 question though, do i have to stay offline with these sounds:confused: or is it the kegetys thingy?

You're not the only one doing a nightshift today, actually as I'm typing this, I am sitting in my building (security) and trying to kill boredom by watching your vids.
At least you got to do something with airplanes.

~S~

FlyingShark, Where is it that you work?? Hopefully a place with lots of $$ :)

Probably quite common with security jobs, I couldn't bear the boredom myself, kudos to you!

I used to do that. Loooong time ago. Respect to you.

Thank you,

I do it for so long that I think I'll stick with it for the rest of my life. I know, crappy working hours, being at home when there's nothing to do, being at work when other people do their whatever hobby it is like sports or evening school (that's why I became a simmer), relationships got wrecked,...but I did it for so long that I wouldn't be able to cope with a normal job like on an office or in a factory. I do like one thing you see, the individuality, as long as I do what's been told, I can organise myself without anyone checking on me and that alone is worth gold for me.

~S~

HA, thank you. I really can't tell on the internet where I work. What I can tell is that I work on different places. There's no $$$ to be found but I do work among other places, in a diplomatic institution. Most people who never worked in security think that it's like being a cop and ask me if I carry gun. Well, it's totally different than being a cop, it's mostly either giving service overday to people and over night it is...well...kinda boring. And my gun, well, I don't have one. See the above post why I still work in security.
By the way, I used to like it a lot more in the past because I was working on a bit huge site where I did virtually anything that has to do with security and a lot of fire protection too. Overthere we learned new things every few months. But as my company lost that contract I left that place and just go where they send me.

I also like being among people from everywhere (when working overday) as I mostly work in international institutions/companies. Pam pam pam pam...she said hush...

~S~

Pretty cool, was kindof joking about asking where you work. Kindof like me asking when the surpise is going to be. As far a I know good security is mostly not known or seen.

Anyhow, sounds like you lead an interesting life, my job has some diversity that I enjoy too, as I do a little of everything here, outside and inside the offices.

Well, keep up the good work on the sounds, they are coming along quite well. Bad thing is as you improve one sound, they others that haven't been touched stand out more and more.. so I guess you have a long road ahead. :rolleyes:

Greg

Its now 2morrow :)

Watching that second clip it was almost like the movie.. great stuff!

Tell me about it...this is one of the reasons why I dont like steam it being reliant on an iterweb connection gives me loads of hastle cos i dont have much BW

Thanks.
