Complete sound package for cockpit builders

[AchillesP]

Hello to all,

I fly the microsoft simulator for over 6 years now and in the last 1 year I build an 737ng simulator. (http://www.737ng.gr) Before that, I was used to build my own sounds for the boeing cfm series because the default ones was not true for me. ( I use to fly for bussiness 4 times per week). So, I would also like to provide my help to this great community. Before 2 months, I started to build a complete package of sounds especially for 737-700 cockpit builders using 6 speakers with the help (test) of a real boeing pilot. The package will contain sounds from playing from fs, and two packages with sounds and instructions especially for pmsounds, where to install the speakers, what kind of offsets to use and etc. We have almost finished with the fs side (truly amazing) and we expect to finish with the pmsounds in the next 3...4 weeks.

When the package is ready and fully tested, we will inform all from this post.

Until then, safe landings.

Best regards,
Achilles

Achilles,

Thats wonderful news. The FS sounds are not very realistic at all would be nice to here yours. Must say your setup is very impressive. Good job!! Will be listening in on here for those new sounds.

Super..Extra...welcome...Good....Cant wait....etc etc..

The PmSound side of it is really of interest because those sounds can be spread between the networked computers and will be coming from the right place...behind, overhead, front (wind noise)
Just a hint (maybe you already did it)... it would be nice in PmSound to have a wind rattle when the landing gear is down for a dedicated speaker under the floor!!

....good work

The main problem of pmsounds is that can not accept (for the time I hope) analog (0..100%) sounds. So we build winds and gears and etc according to different speeds (maybe 20...30 different winds and 5...10 different gear sounds) brakes, touchdowns, winds from speedbrakes, winds from flaps, metal aircraft sounds, etc. Wait and you will see. Be patient.

I hope not to exceed our timeline but it depents from the result. Our target is to be as real as it gets.

Best regards,
Achilles

This is great.

Cant wait to hear the result.

The sound is a very important factor in a sim. Very cool that you will share your work

Hey Achilles...that´s a great news. Since i´m also fiddle with PMSounds, I´m really curious about it.

I cant wait until your work is finished, like others here, sound is a very important factor in a simulator. I'm looking forward to your work, and thank you for such a good contribution too!

Main volume package uploaded at f9 sounds download library. Update for pmsounds will follow soon.


This is for cockpit builder only. 737-600-700-800 Series
This is version 1.00
Make a backup of your sounds first.

Notes:

1.) No outside sounds. Only what you can hear from the cockpit.
2.) Use default sound volume (50%)
