Engine Sounds

Do you know of anyone working on a sound pack? hehe, I do.

Yes, I do.  I will be using his... 

(Notice I did not say "yours".)

[Vraciu]

 

The irony of a man who can't hear working on a sound pack is lost on some of you it seems. 

[Chalenge]

Yes, I do.  I will be using his... 

(Notice I did not say "yours".)

Who? It doesn't really matter, though. Since there is someone else that can do this I will use the time I would have taken to put together an FMOD library and just spend time with my kids. We'll all be happier that way.

Works for me.

No, it does not sound like a lawn mower. Vraciu cannot hear, does not know what a lawn mower sounds like, and knows absolutely nothing about which he is professing to be an expert.

Here is an age appropriate video proving just what I said.

Sounds like a lawnmower in game.   Everyone (including the OP, along with numerous commentators on 200) but you says so. If you played as often as you post you might be aware of that.

 Maybe a hearing test is in order.   

[Chalenge]

That is not what they mean at all. It is what several people say, but that is merely ignorance. What they mean to say is that the realistic sound of the P-51 from the cockpit is an unexpected result. Most people think that because the Rolls Royce is so ferocious, yet a true thoroughbred, that it should sound like a race car engine at high revolutions. When they discover that not only are the revolutions low, but that the sound is not so ferocious (though still very, very loud), then they react is though the sound cannot be correct.

Rather than incorrect, the sound has shown that your friend with the P-51 experience is either very, very mistaken, or merely part of your imagination.

Have a nice day.

Ah, yes, the aspersions game.   I remember the first time I walked on water.  Try again.

It shows that your recording proves two things and you may pick one, the other, or both:

1) What the mic renders is not what the human ear hears.

2) The sound in the game does not match what the recording purports to show as "accurate".


As I correctly posited, I expect the Mustang to sound more like a 421 or 414 (hardly "ferocious") than a Briggs and Stratton.    That my buddy with a decade of Mustang experience mentioned an engine that's a derivative of that used by the 414/421 shows I am dead right, as usual, when it comes to aviation-related topics.  YMMV (because you live in academia and not reality).

You are the first person in the history of the world that claims that what humans use to record and playback what humans hear, does not in fact record and playback correctly. Why you continue to cite a person that does not exist is a real mystery.

You are a troll, and that's not being very nice to trolls the world over.

Uh................when what you RECORD on your 2nd rate equipment does not match my ears (or those with experience in the airplane) then you cannot say it is "correct".

And when you claim your recording is accurate....and said recording does not match the game....then you prove my point and that of the OP.   

Are you tired of losing this argument yet?

"Troll this" and "Troll that" -- the cries of one who has lost the debate.

[bustr]

You both have lost the debate until one of you puts a mic pickup inside the ear cup of your headset and records during a P51 ride. That is what the pilot hears in real life. Otherwise this argument is that one side wants to hear the full unfiltered majesty of the merlin engine while sitting in his cockpit playing the game. Like some players used to swap out the AH2 engine sound for their favorite metal band song.

Everybody does their ride along recording with the mic out side of their head set muffs but, what they really hear is always filtered by the head set muffs they wear so they can talk to the pilot. And the pilot wears a head set so he can talk to the tower.

It's no different than what you hear at the range with your shooting muffs on when the guy next to you cuts loose with a .300 win mag. And when you goof and have them off. Got a pressure concussion that way once from the side blast of a muzzle suppressor.

Vraciu wont concede by admitting he wants to hear an unfiltered merlin when he plays the game so chalenge won't win the argument. That's why you both loose until someone gets a recording from inside of a headset muff during a ride along. No one records what the pilot really hears do they.........

[Vraciu]

Don't put words in my mouth. 

I don't want to hear a lawn mower.  Other than that I don't give a flip.
