HT, Two Suggestions about Check 6
« on: November 08, 2001, 12:10:00 AM »
Currently, I understand that when somebody warns you to check 6, the check 6 sound uses a file stored within your system. (Am I correct?)

 Is it possible to make the check 6 call use the sound file that the person who sends it out has? This way, if I am flying a LW plane for instance, I may send a check 6 call to a friendly, and he would get it in German language check 6 I am currently using.

 And, If there are problems with that suggestion(such as technical problems encountered when u have to hear a sound from someone else's system 3,000km away   :D)...

 Can it be done that a check 6 sound can be placed in each plane's sound folder? I notice the external sounds we hear use the same sounds currently u have on your system. If I see a LA-7 fly by, I will hear the LA-7's unique engine sound I have set in my program. So, I think this suggests there is no technical problem with this suggestion.

 I want to set it like this, place a British Check 6 call in all RAF plane's sound folder, put a German Check 6 call in all LW plane's sound folder and etc, etc....

   :)

ps) I haven't checked if the second suggestion is currently possible.. so BUMMER if it is so   :D

HT could make GENERIC 6 calls from each fighter. A 6call wav for each plane is nice, and you could costumize it. But then again, I have my good ol' brit accent squeakin' 6 call doomsday shriek to wake me up no matter what the call.

And heck, im looking for one with a scottish accent and bagpipes.. sure to make me evade much faster.

That seems that it would be a horrible bandwidth killer.

What I am doing is using a check 6 file for each aircraft.  Put a check6.wav file in each aircraft's sound folder.  If I am flying a German aircraft I get a German check 6.  I think that is better than getting the language based on the sender's aircraft.

American: English, American accented
British: English, British accented
German: German
Japanese: Japanese
Bf109G-2: Finnish
Russian: I need a Russian check 6 file
Italian: I need an Italian check 6 file
P-47D-25: I need a Portugese check 6 file

Does anybody have check 6 files in those languages?

Although I use Archy Bunker yelling "Watch it Meathead!" for my every day "check 6" wave  file I have saved every 'check 6' of other nationalites that I could find.  I'm also missing the same launguages that Karnak is. Although a few squaddies are from Brasil so I'll ask if anyone can make a "Check 6" wave (Portugese) and I'll pass it on if they do. I do not know anyone that speaks Russian  :(
