Fruda's Dedicated Sound Packs

Great news: I just completed a series of Mitsubishi Ha-45 radial engine sounds for the Ki-84. Along with that, I have the accompanying gun, flaps, and gear sounds to go with them.

I should have some packs up by tomorrow.

 Thank you!

Er, make that Nakajima Ha-45... Sorry about the fudge there.

I'm getting some unwanted distortion out of my internal Merlin engine sounds, and I'm also reworking the internal Engstart file so it will conform with the external one.

I expect to release both P-51 and Spitfire packs simultaneously, so it'll be a few more days. Please be advised that I don't currently have any (decent) Check6 sounds for British, Japanese, and Italian aircraft, so I won't be including any.

Any word on when your uploading them?

I've decided to stop releasing large, "global" AH2 sound packs, in favor of dedicated packs. I'll release two packs at a time, but know this: It will take quite some time to finish every plane.

So far I've done the P-51's and Spitfires, all zipped into two different packs. These are of the highest quality possible, and I'll be updating as soon as I get more source material.

My next project is a P-38/Me 109 pack... Look out for it, as it may come sooner than you expect .

Go here to get the P-51 and Spitfire packs. They're in .RAR format and shouldn't take long to download.

How do i put them in? fit_zy@hotmail.com

I just got a new hard drive, and I still have all of my files intact (I didn't need to get rid of my old drive after all --- it'll be a backup from here on out). I'll begin adding the final touches to my first batch of sounds most likely tonight, and if I feel like it, they might be done either tonight or tomorrow night.

All you have to do is extract the folders to your AH/sounds folder, and that's that.

The moment you've been waiting for is almost here... It would've been here, but my host site seems to be undergoing maintenance. Oh well, at least I can offer some info on what I've done.

I've completed four sound packs in full: Chance Vought F4U Corsair, North American P-51 Mustang, Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, and Supermarine Spitfire, all with true-to-life sounds, from guns to engines (though it's really mostly about the engines, isn't it?). All sounds are formatted to sound exactly as they should, so the engines will drown out most of the other sounds, though you'll still be able to hear your flaps and gear deploying. If you listen closely.

Since I can't upload, I might rework my Bf-109 sounds before I upload these... But don't hold your breath. It's arduous work, and it takes a lot of time and patience.


Do keep in mind that these sounds, for the highest level of authenticity possible, are optimised for hardware soundcards on the level of the Audigy 2 (read: lots and lots of frequency pickups). So, if your sound card (or on-board chip) doesn't have a very high signal-to-noise ratio, you might hear some clipping. I'm on AC'97, and they sound fine, though I'm not too sure about any lesser chips.

The latest sound packs have been released --- refer to the topic post for the website link.

Fruda!  Great work!!:aok

I'm using your 4 newest packs, and they are fantastic!  I'll keep checking for the ones you've done previously once you get you site up.

[Speed55]

Thanks for the great work, the engine sounds are fantastic!

I am trying to DL these sound packs, but the link is not allowing me access to the site. I've even tried clicking links on diffrent pages to the same site with no luck. ANy ideas? I am have no other issues with IE, I've checked every way I can.

Think we're probably exceeding the daily limits. Here's the post from the other thread with what should be good links.

Didn't know about that site. I'm uploading all four packs as I type this.

The speed's nowhere near as fast as my home site's, but it'll do.

nice work!

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..
