Fruda's Dedicated Sound Packs

Fruda, I love the P-51 packs.  Obviously since I fly those 90% of the time, I appreciate the effort and work to put such a nice set of sounds togather.

Ok now that I smoozed ya, I got a couple questions!

What is the EngI sound for?

And in flight about every 4 to 5 seconds there is a metalic bang that happens, it increases and decreases with the engine noise, what is that?  It does not seem part of ENG..

Not sure what the metallic bang is, as I've never heard it... This is the first time I've even heard about it. Funky.

Anyway, every sound ending in I is an Internal sound. The default sounds are External recordings. Since AHII doesn't have a very spiffy sound engine, you have to switch between either External or Internal sounds, depending on which ones you prefer.

And yes, those Internal sounds are authentic, just as the External ones are.

Thanks.

I guess a metalic "strum" would be more descriptive.  Its about 4 or 5 seconds.  4 seconds would make it when the ENGI repeats.  Might be mysound card hiccupping.

Figured the sounds were authentic, never questioned that.

I am terrible at downloading things and saving them.  How do I download the p47 soundpack without screwing it up.  


Thanks

It'll be a while before I get to working on the sounds again, as there are more important things that I have to spend my money on right now (I can't yet afford $15 a month *plus* $120 for a new GPU).

That said, keep waiting and new packs will be done... Eventually.

Hi Fruda,
 Thanks to you and the others who put their time into these sound packs. I like your spit 8 sounds but noticed the engine start seems to be a bit short. It sounds like it has already started by the time the smoke billows and prop turns over. I was wondering if I got a bad download or if it is just my system? I am on a really slow laptop right now. Also, does anyone have any tutorials on creating sound files? I can't seem to find anything on the BBS. Well, just curious, thanks again.

I'm betting it's your slow computer, as I formatted all of the sounds to go well over the normal engstart file's runtime (8.765 seconds).

Roger, thanks, think you're right. Thanks again.

any download links that are active I tried a couple but they no longer exist.

I'm very happy with my current hybrid sounds but would like to see if Frudas engine noises for the spit and pony are better?

Sitesled often does maintenance. The links are working again, so get the Mustang and Spit packs. You'll love the real sound of the Merlins and Griffon (no plural there, as only one plane in the whole set uses a Griffon).

Fruda:
Thanks!  I have been waiting for your packs to become available again.  I was curious of on thing: for the guns and engine sounds you have the regular sound like sound.wav and then a soundi.wav.  What is the difference (other than they sound different)?

sounds with an I at the end are internal recordings, so if you want that truly "in the cockpit" experience, rename all of the normal sounds (for example, Eng becomes EngX), and then take the I off of each internal sound. It's much, much different.

Fruda,

Your Engine on/off sounds are truly superb!

Thanks for your hard work and effort getting them done.  Thanks for the I explanation aswell that helps.

Why is this thread no longer stickied?


Edit: Never mind, it was a problem with my browser. Weird.

Well, things are (slowly) picking up, so in a few more months, I should be working on sounds again.

I know, I know, it's a long time, but it's better than never working on them again. It's just that I have to spend money on items of higher priority before my computer gets anything extra. Even so, if things go better than expected, I might even be able to work on sounds again within the next few weeks.

Be patient, there will be more. Eventually.

Fruda, would be great if you can find some Axis stuff,  I have most of the allied rides sounding superb thanks to several different packs.

I guess there is limited japanese and german material.
