REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Loving getting to grips with the module! Just some minor suggestions: 1: The walkman should be audible in external view when you have checked the "hear radio in external view" option. Is it not the point to hear the groovy tracks as we watch ourselves posing in the sunset or lining up on the cat?:) 2: Walkman is affected by the "hear like in cockpit" option. I always keep this option on, because I don't like hearing stuff I think the pilot will not hear, but right now this muffles the music- which I think should be crisp either way. No pilots (that I know of) listen to music when on ops, so the feature is totally unrealistic- BUT VERY COOL nonetheless. Hope that these things are something you might consider so we can enjoy METEOR tunes while ripping up the skies:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myHelljumper Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 The soundtrack rocks too! Flying over Persian Gulf to Lion and the Sun is epic! How do you change the track that is playing ? When I let the walkman play, it cycle the same first song.

Rudel_chw Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 The Viggen has this also :thumbup: Yes, but the Viggen’s came with no music, you had to supply your own ... the F14 was a nice surprise that it came with a music tape already loaded :) For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudel_chw Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 How do you change the track that is playing ? When I let the walkman play, it cycle the same first song. You are too young :) (or I’m too old) ... the walkman was a TAPE player, it didnt have track capability, you can just fast forward or rewind ... keep the control pressed and find the desired song by trial/error ... I prefer to just play it whole :D For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megadyptes Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Ok I’m blind as I can’t see this in the manual. How on earth do we use it, and can we add our own tracks. Specifically the Topgun soundtrack ;) The control bindings are under the walkman category, right near the bottom of the selection box. Default binds are LShift+M to play, LShift+N to stop. LCtrl+M to fast forward and LCtrl+N to rewind. I've switched out the soundtrack for the Top Gun one. Just convert MP3s to OGG and rename the tracks to Song1, Song2... and it works fine. Files go in 'Mods\aircraft\F14\Sounds\Walkman\' I also replaced the F-14 main menu music with the Top Gun Anthem. Menu music is found in 'Mods\aircraft\F14\Sounds\EditorMusic\' Volume controls for the Walkman would be a nice improvement as it is quite a bit loud.

Eldur Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 3: Volume control 4: Being able to set up multiple MCs and swap them, the sounds are there already. Just limit the number reasonably since you can't bring a ton of cassettes with you 5: Just to make it more realistic, it's a simulation after all: Limit the playtime and let us have to turn the MC around to play the other side 6: Totally nerdy, but how about having a Kneeboard page with a tracklist of the pieces included? 4, 5 & 6 would make it easier to find certain tracks as well.
