For those of you having issues installing Soundpack v2.0

Alright here we go: This is the easist way I can think to do it.

Download and extract the files to your desktop. You should now have a folder labelled sounds on your desktop, and inside that folder should be folders of all the planes, ground vehicles and other sounds (in.wav).

Ok goto you AH2 Directory. There should also be a folder named sounds in there. Right click and select "rename".
Name it to "oldsounds".

Go to the extracted sounds folder on the desktop and right click, copy. Then right click / paste it into the Ah2 directory. You could also "click and drag" the folder in.

Now your aces high directory should have these folders in it:

ahiterr
cache
films
maps
missions
setting
sights
skins
sounds
*oldsounds
squads
sticks
ect....

After that - restart Ah2 and all should be good.

I unzipped to the desktop and then copy and pasted to the AH2 directory and now all is fine. The problem I had unzipping into the AH2/sounds folder that it was always creating a subdirectory with the files in it and apparently that was the problem with not getting any sounds. Wierd thing is, that is how Mitsu's sounds are and they work fine?? No matter the sounds are working now ~~Thanks for the sounds Waffle >~~

HA! I've been using this pack since it's birth on this forum and NEVAR noticed some of the cool stuff waffle adds. Is the funny check6 and warning stuff new to this version or has it always been there?

Waffle · « **Reply #51 on:** August 17, 2004, 06:51:20 PM »

I think i added the humorous stuff in 1.8. You just have to look for it, then change the name of the file to check6.wav or warning.wav

Waffle - using your sound pack and Im having a problem: I only hear sound during the engine start sequence, when the stall warn is active, or wind noise pikcs up.

Any ideas?

Go through the downloaded folder and click on some files and play them. See if it might be a possible corrupted download.

Also, maybe remove the original sounds folder complety from the ah2 directory, where you only have the downloaded sounds folder in there.

Just got some good news -

Found a guy whos sending me CDs and a bunch of files of authentic recordings of period aircraft from a personal collection. I've also ran across alot of footage of GE panzer/ tiger operations which have some excellent useable audio that I should be able to extract and clean-up for use as vehicle sounds.

looks like work on 2.1 shall begin soon....

Didn't test all by now.

Recently went ot ain airshow.
One of the performing planes was a Yak (dont remember the model)
But one of the things that struck me was compaired to their american counterparts. the engine did indeed sound as if were low on oil.

Might be thats just the way they sounded

hehe going to take me 33min u gota do something

LOL Your in no position to complain. With my wonderful dial up at 26k the most I can download is about 70 megs. Takes me about 8 or 9 hours. Consenquently I can't even download Waffles sound pack.

Waffle you going to the Con? If so could you.... oh actually I can just download it from there. I am sure my connect will be fast at the con.

thnks waffle loved the spitfire eng sound

Daddog, I am not currently planning on attending the con due my schedule. Hopefully I will have a newer version of the soundpack up by then. Not sure what the dates are for the con...

I'm sure you could download it there. I'm not sure if they hand out disk there for the con, but if they do, I might be able to get it added on as an "extra" if I ask really nice. Again, that is an option that I know nothing about.

Also I will probably release it as WINRAR file without the self extraction utility.
You would have to download WINRAR to unzip it, but the soundpack download would actually be alot smaller than it currently is.

I honestly prefer WINRAR to winzip, due the compression abilites.
I think you can locate it at http://www.rarlab.com

BTW for anyone not hearing the sounds when extracted.
Make sure they go into your AHII folder.
I Noticed the autoextractor is currently set to extract into the AH folder not the AHII folder
