666th_birdy Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Get it from the download section at http://www.666th.co.uk This ModMan5 compatible Mod, adds a female tower voice to the game. It's in the english language with a nice european accent to it The orginal sound files (OGG format) are not overwritten but LockOn will play the added WAV files instead. A batch file "LockOn_manual_tower-voice_switcher.bat" is also added to the same folder to let the player easily switch between the female and (original) male tower voice. A simular batch file "LockOn_auto_tower-voice_switcher.bat" is added to enable the player to switch voices on PC re-boot, in which case the player should make a ShortCut to this batchfile and place it in the 'startup' folder. This zip file is ModMan5 compatible but you can also simply unzip all WAV files in folder ..lockon\sounds\englishversion\usa\tower The two batch files are optional. Many thanks to Monique for her effort This version was tested using LockOn v.1.12a DELL Inspiron 1564 / Intel Core i3 M330 @ 2.13GHz (4GB)___ATI Radeon HD4330(512Mb)___Windows7 Home Premium 64bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sytse Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I can't install it... :( Is it because I'm using Modman 6.2?? If that is indeed the issue, can't I just replace the original sound files? I really like the female tower voice mod! Good job Birdy and Monique! :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Virtual Red Arrows homepage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shemi Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Just drop the files in lockon/sounds/english version/USA/tower folder! The files will not replace the original lockon files:)! Then in the folder you'll see two files(LockOn_manual_tower-voice_switcher.bat) and (LockOn_auto_tower-voice_switcher.bat) whit them you can switch on or off the female tower voice :) P.S. Make back up first :) [LEFT][SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] [/LEFT] [LEFT][COLOR=RoyalBlue][SIZE=3][B]=2ИАЕ=[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] [/LEFT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironhand Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 rodger. i'll try it again. how do you switch between voices? i didn't understand the above directions. 1) Unzip the mod and drop the Sounds folder into your main FC directory. This will place the voice files along with the two batch (BAT) files into the right place. 2) If you do nothing else, you will now have the female tower voice for the American aircraft. 3) If you want to be able to switch back and forth between the default tower and female tower, you need to do one of two things: To switch manually: Find LockOn_manual_tower-voice_switcher.bat in Sounds\EnglishVersion\USA\TOWER and right-click on it. From the context menu, select Send to/Desktop. This creates a Shortcut on your desktop. When you click it, it will run that file and the voices will switch. To switch automatically: Find LockOn_auto_tower-voice_switcher.bat and create a shortcut as above. Copy that shortcut from your desktop and place it in your Startup folder. For most people this will probably be: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup. Now, whenever your computer is rebooted, the voices will switch. EDIT: A bit of explanation about how the mod works. The sim will play a sound file with a WAV suffix before it will play one with an OGG suffix, if the file otherwise has the same name. So Bearing.wav (the female voice) will play while the default Bearing.ogg will be ignored. Run the batch file. The batch file simply renames bearing.wav to bearing.wa_. Now the default voice will be heard. Run the batch file a 2nd time and bearing.wa_ becomes bearing.wav and you get to listen to Monique's lovely voice again. So the original FC files are never touched. That 666th_Birdy is pretty slick. :) Rich YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU1...CR6IZ7crfdZxDg _____ Win 10 Pro x64, ASUS Z97 Pro MoBo, Intel i7-4790K, EVGA GTX 970 4GB, HyperX Savage 32GB, Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB SSD, 2x Seagate Hybrid Drive 2TB Raid 0.

Sytse Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Allright, so is it possible to have Monique's voice in the Russian planes as well? BTW, thanks guys! :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Virtual Red Arrows homepage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironhand Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Allright, so is it possible to have Monique's voice in the Russian planes as well? BTW, thanks guys! :) Sure. Same as above EXCEPT: Copy the mod's TOWER folder and dump it in your installation's Sounds\EnglishVersion\RF folder. And, when Windows tells you that folder already exists, etc, etc, just click "Yes to all". (Of course, you should have gotten that message, too, when you dumped the Sounds folder into your installation for the American aircraft.)
