Q3ark Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 Has anyone else found the “secret” music player? If so have you figured out how to change the volume? Ps Thanks heatblur it’s awesome.
TheFlyGuy Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 There is no mention of a music player in the DCS-specific section of the F-4 manual. As far as I understood, the music files from the Meteor F-4 Album, that comes with the Phantom, are meant to be used as a soundtrack in your homemade video productions. But I hope I'm wrong. It would be a shame not to be able to listen to these tracks while flying the F-4.
Solution Phantom12 Posted May 23, 2024 Solution Posted May 23, 2024 Theres no volume control yet. You can play them in the cockpit though. Its a bit "hidden" as Q3ark says.

Bazz_Mulder Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 Ah ffs, I was checking the cockpit. Thanks! Kowalsky - "Fox 3" simply means that you have commitment issues
Phantom12 Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 It was more reliable for me to go to the backseat and hit the button myself... not sure why but the wheel didnt always work.
LizardKingYB Posted May 25, 2024 Posted May 25, 2024 Mine just turned on recording. Are you doing it on the ground?
scsimodo42 Posted May 28, 2024 Posted May 28, 2024 It doesn't work for me. Regardless of whether I start ATVR record via the Jester menu or directly on the WSO seat, nothing happens. I have also played with the sound sliders in the options menu, but so far no success.
Q3ark Posted May 28, 2024 Author Posted May 28, 2024 Here’s the steps… Eject the tape, click on the label (the text will change) , put the tape back in, tell jester to start recording = music
TheFlyGuy Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Doesn't work for me either. I've switched the Tape, set the recorder to record, the green light next to the pilot's left knee is illuminated, and turned that knob in both directions to raise the volume, but no sound at all.
GrafRotz Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 I never heared music playing. Hat a human Rio and we were fiddeling around with it. He could hear it, i didn't. NOW, i can hear it, but he does not. Repeated over and over, i have the feeling its "burned in" who is hearing and who not. Strange ^^
GladiatorDPR Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Holy crap that's what that does. Found it my first time in the bird and was looking around the cockpit. The tape ejected and flipped around and j noticed it said Meteor on it but couldn't figure out how to make it play. That's awesome! 1
gulredrel Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Worked for me in single player. Maybe it's not supposed to work in multiplayer?!
Zabuzard Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 It is supposed to work in multiplayer. The volume feature is coming in the next patch. 1 3
Tshark Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Got it playing in multiplayer with a live WSO, but only the pilot gets the music. Is this right? 9800X3D (5.21GHz Turbo), MSI RTX 4090 OC 24GB, ASUS ROG Strix X870E-E GAMING Motherboard, G. Skill Trident Z5 DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB), Crucial P3 Plus 4TB PCIe Gen4 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD, Virpil Alpha Joystick with FFBeast FFB base, T-50CM3 Throttle, MFG Xwind rudder pedals, Pimax Crystal VR.
Zabuzard Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Got it playing in multiplayer with a live WSO, but only the pilot gets the music. Is this right? Both should get the music, it is synced.
comcat Posted June 4, 2024 Posted June 4, 2024 love the tunes, love the F4, could we please get some normal keybinds for the player, like in the F14, volume and start stop, please, please and thx!!!! 1
Longiron Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 Awesome work! That something like this was even coded in blew me away in the tomcat and to see it implemented in the f4 had me grinning ear to ear first time I got it playing. Little extras like this has got me searching the 3d model just to see if HB left signatures in the wheel wells or something. Just phantastic. 1
Zabuzard Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 love the tunes, love the F4, could we please get some normal keybinds for the player, like in the F14, volume and start stop, please, please and thx!!!! These keybinds already exist. Please see our manual, the Tape Player chapter explains it :)
