Jester squelch, radalt, stall warning volume reduction mod

[Nealius]

The Jester menu squelch sound effects, radalt, and compressor stall warnings were making my ears bleed so I nerfed them. The Jester menu sound effects had to be edited in Audacity, but the radalt and stall warning volume can be tweaked in the sdef files. I lowered them to 0.2, so if anyone wants them louder or quieter they can open the sdef files in notepad and change that value to whatever. Default (I think) was 0.6 for the radalt and 1.0 for the stall horns.

The mod is OvGME ready, or install manually by dragging and dropping the "Mods" folder into your DCS root directory.

I hope this would be implemented by Heatblur. Thanks for finding the cause and providing the fix! I can finally enjoy Tomcat. I had pain using Jester everytime.

Not sure, haven't tested. If not, you could try placing the mod in Saved Games, though I'm not sure if that sound-mod method is still valid in 2.7.

I have been using it the past week with my squadron and had no MP issues.  IC issues tend to be more texture related.  (thats a common game-development best-practice because its easy to cheat by , for example, changing all aircraft to bright orange, or cockpit textures to transparent) - audio modifications are usually fine.

Works great. Thank you so much!!!

Without this sound mod, I am not able to fly the Tomcat.
