[NOT REALISTIC] looking to increase afterburner sound in F/A-18...


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Unlike other aircraft, I'm unable to increase the afterburner sound by editing the Afterburner.sdef and increasing the gain = 1.5 to a higher value.

Anyone figure out how to do it?

 

 

Thank you.

Run the hornet sound mod. It sounds 10,000 times better.

 

Does the Hornet Sound mod affect in-cockpit sounds? Thought it was just external sounds. I imagine the OP is looking for better indication of using AB while flying.

well, you cant hear the AB in the cockpit in the real jet. Only for a short time on takeoff until the airflow over the canopy and forward movement drown it out.

 

And no, it's external sounds only.

Right. I guess I assumed OP wanted to increase the sound so it's easier to tell whether the AB is lit.

Exactly...and also I like the sound.

Why was it easy to do in other planes by increasing the Afterburner.sdef gain to a higher value but with F/A-18 it has no affect. There must be a waysmartass.gif

I guess you mean that one:

 

 

Well, I haven't heard this once yet in my copy of DCS, that's why I also tried to turn up that sound's volume. The file is there... but it isn't played at all, even if I add +15db(A) to it rainbowdashwink.png

 

The only reason I know it should be there is Wags' videos...

Now I understand why editing the Afterburner.sdef has no affect, it's not triggered when you are in afterburner like the F-15 as an example.
