cromhunt Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) The module of the F14 from Heatblur has a function "walkman" which allows to listen ten titles of music during the game, as with a walkman. And you can modify the list with the music of your choice by replacing them after converting your files to ogg format, with audacity for example, which is free. In addition, unlike the added music editor, each player can listen to his own music. Would it be available one day extend this function with the other modules? With the editor of mission we are able to add music but when it is necessary to stop and resume or change songs, it is very complicated. While this function added by Heatblur it becomes easy. Thanks in advance if answer exists. Edited April 9, 2019 by cromhunt
Nooch Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 You can already play music as much as you want, it doesn't have to be handled in-game. Sorry, I don't see the point. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
FragBum Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 I use itunes streaming from a server via ethernet it has very little impact if any on DCS. :thumbup: Control is an illusion which usually shatters at the least expected moment. Gazelle Mini-gun version is endorphins with rotors. See above.

Hawkeye60 Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Why not create a radio station? You assign a frequency, Pick the "message" (can be anything- My favs, classical music at sunset in the mountains, or real broadcasts of WW II events taken from radio recordings), And choose a transmitter. There are a few other options to pick from. Now, while flying, change to "entertainment channel" or quickly switch to more important messages/silence. The oog file will consume resources, And I believe all on-line members will need to have it installed to hear in MP. They are fun! Make two! Hope this helps!

Rudel_chw Posted April 10, 2019 Posted April 10, 2019 Juggling an MP3 player in the background is a situational awareness killer and annoyance when you've been flying for an hour and then alt-tab to skip a song, only to come back into the game and see you've been shot down. I use the multimedia keys of my keyboard to control the music player, as DCS doesnt affect those keys, so no problem for me and I get to play at the volume I want (the Tomcat's minimum volume is still too loud for me).

cromhunt Posted April 10, 2019 Author Posted April 10, 2019 I just want to know if it would be available to extend this function to other DCS modules. Players are free to use it or not. Once assigned the keys to use it can be played walkman or stop and increase or decrease the sound. A radio station is easy to install I have one or more in each of my missions.But there is a limitation to avoid overloading it is necessary to use files ogg lower in size to 1meg 7. It will be just a piece of music which goes in loop. Apart from the music it may be interesting to replace the songs files with atmosphere sounds of air combat with their radio communications to increase the immersion. it's just an idea and as it already exists on a module why not extend it to others. Once again we can activate them or not.

Actually, I'm not quite sure if that file wouldn't be part of the mission? It does kind of lead to unnecessarily large mission files, though.
