Thanks in advance. well this is an odd one. i cannot say i have ever noticed sounds on and switches. maybe just used to it. what happens if you uncheck the "hear like in helmet"? checkbox? i have always had that box checked and perhaps that is why i dont hear anything. those helmets are pretty tight against the ears and fitted special for every pilot.

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted March 8 ED Team Share Posted March 8 Just now, buceador said: I did that before I posted... you had a mod in there at some point correct? It maybe a good idea to run a slow repair and look for anything left over. Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

buceador Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 I'm running a slow repair. The SOUNDS folder only contained .ogg and .wav files for use in missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buceador Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 (edited) I have run the slow repair, check all files (slow) No change... Important to bear in mind that this is a recent occurrence - the extra files found are mostly reshade files and liveries. BUT there are also many files, including sound files related to the F16 - possibly ECHO19_CORE files? Is is safe to assign ALL these extra files to a backup folder? Edit: I have removed ALL extra files but switches are still silent... Edited March 8 by buceador More testing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buceador Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 I posted a problem on Friday re. silent switches in the F-16 in the DCS 2.9 General Bugs section. Many thanks for all the responses, however nothing I tried actually corrected the problem. There are no MODS nor 3rd party scripts, I attached a .trk file and DCS log. I did a slow repair AND removed all 'extra' files found, as I said, all to no avail. All other cockpit sounds are audible like powering up RWR, weapon sounds, launch sounds, radio comms, hostile launch notifications. Only the switches are stubbornly silent. Can anyone tell me where are the sound files associated with the F-16 switches are located and if they encrypted? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted March 12 ED Team Share Posted March 12 I have merged the threads. I have not been able to reproduce your issue. Can you attach your fresh dcs log again after trying to use the switches in the cockpit. thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

skywalker22 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) Ok, I see he has the slider for Switches fully turned on (slider to the far right side). Btw, can you select the Main audio Out and Headphones to your specific hardware? I know I have issues with sounds in VR, if my VR headset is not selected.

antiload Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Just a random FYI, I noticed when flying in SP last night that I couldn't hear a click when I turned off/on the master external lights master switch that I had mapped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverdevil Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 (edited) @buceador - i also did not hear switch sounds in your track or in one i made. i went into options and found the switches have their own intensity. i moved slider from 100% to 300%. anyway i can now hear the switches as i remember them. though it is not working for you.
