The new engine sound is terrible.

The new engine sound is terrible. You just took a a flyby recording and cut it so it loops and used that as the engine sound. However no plane engine sounds like that up close.

Listen to it at 1:50. And then for 15 seconds until it takes off. At 1:57 (when it moves away from the camera) it starts to sound like a deep howl. Because the doppler effect will cause the pitch of the sound to lower as it moves away. The engine sound remains crisp and of higher frequency when the plane is close and stationary.

thought you might need this.

The sound needs to be crisp and higher pitched up close. I can hear the doppler effect of it moving away from the recording source.

[Dun_Aenghus]

I think the new sounds are excellent, some of the best of any DCS module.

[Rlaxoxo]

Thanks for the feedback and the Video it was really Awesome

Due to the limitation of well DCS you can't really make anything other then a Loop that repeats for engine sounds.

 

I'll play around try to simulate it closer to reality when I get the time

[The Black Swan]

Please mr hamster..... These are the best in DCS right now. The sound engine that it would take to accurately sim sound and the Doppler effect is far, far away right now.

 

I actually wish all jet engines in DCS had sounds similar to this...

[Chrinik]

What are you talking about "The sound engine that it would take to accurately sim sound and the Doppler effect is far, far away right now."...have you ever zoomed into or had a helicopter fly by in DCS?

Their rotor blade sounds definately experience a frequency and pitch shift.

The engine shutdown sound is not correct. A jet engine does not go silent the moment you shut the fuel off.

Yup, Startup, Shutdown and overall 3d Sound positioning is still an issue and it's known

Its just it much depends on ED to work with Razbam on this since it's their own Sound SDK that they work with and Razbam pretty much just say what they want done but it takes time : /

I think the sound on the M2k is great, beside the above wip, I would like the engine sound inside cookpit to be a bit louder...

I wouldn't.

Just try to speak with a buddy on Skype or anything else in MP :smilewink:

Is loud inside the cockpit at the minute I think due to wind noise. It's hard to hear anyone on teamspeak when flying at speed.

Mirage is using Default DCS Wind sound and it's really loud, it would be best for Mirage to have it's own definition for Wind sound so it can be tweaked

[Dave317]

Any idea how to tweak it down a bit?

[RAZBAM_ELMO]

Turn the master volume down or turn ts up.

I can't turn ts up anymore. Is there a file for the wind I can adjust. I'm not fussed if it affects all modules as I only really use this one at the moment.

[hellking]

I really enjoy the M2000 sounds, especially after the start up. During the start up it is not programmed to what is going on in the cockpit, so it sounds like pre-recorded and out of place. After ED programs it properly it will be the best.

Every sound or Texture in DCS can be changed it's just a matter of finding the file.

 

To lower the Wind volume follow the Path:

\DCS World\Sounds\sdef\Aircrafts

 

Open the following 2 files with Notepad:

- PlaneWindInL

- PlaneFurWindInL (Cockpit Wind noise)

 

You don't have to edit the other "PlaneFurWindInR" since it inherits what you change from the first file

 

Change the volume by changing for example:

gain = 0.6

 

To something like:

gain = 0.25

 

Or any number you desire play around with it and see what you like

Perfect thanks. I've dropped it down to 0.2 and it's much better for me.

[Kev2go]

it may be a loop but right now imho still think m2000c is the sexiest sounding fighter jet in dcs

 

I love the new sounds. I wish the fc3 jets sounded this good.

No idea what OP is on about.

Thanks guys ^^

+1 Absolutely agree. The sounds of this module make a statement. "I'm here and ready to own this server!" :)

[Theskyline35]

I also think the actual sound is very good, compare to all other jet module, the Mirage is really good (the AfterBurner sound is very nice for instance), however I still think it can be better, as the OP said for the fly by sound which isn't really nice compare to a real fighter...

 

But I'm also sure the DCS sound engine is really limited, and that Rlaxoxo is doing his best with the tools available.
