Requesting Grumman Goose/R-985 engine sound for the FSXGoose

Requesting Grumman Goose/R-985 engine sound for the FSXGoose

Greetings, First day........

Stumbled across this old topic awhile back and It got me really excited, it dated back to 2005 I believe. Unfortunately none of the download links work anymore, that's how much dust the topic picked up. This sound pack would go great with the all HD Grumman Goose found on OzX. This is the deafult fsx Goose but with better model and HD. Does anyone have it?

Sorry Mike, but the link you provided goes to a blank page? I'm going to take a guess, and say the link you're meaning to share is the pack made by OBIO?

It looks like were are pleasantly running into more of those dead ends :X seem after clicking the link I got this...

Warning: include(/home/worm/public_html/site/main_1.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/page.php on line 252

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/home/worm/public_html/site/main_1.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in [path]/page.php on line 252
 
All I can say is that the link worked fine prior to the forum update. Best and easiest way to find the soundpack, is go into the library archives and hit the drop down menu. Scroll to "OBIO". You'll find the files residing under his name.

Edit: sorry, but after trying the way I refer to, it's forum related. They'll have to get it fixed. All I can suggest, keep checking ;)

Cheers, my efforts will not seize until I find the intel :kilroy:
 
There is a known issue right now with the downloads section. It is being worked on, so hang in there a little longer!
 
Hello:

I thought this other (older) thread regarding that engine and the sound set might be of interest:

BTW: The R-985 engine sound set for Milton Shupe's Spartan Executive is awesome... I use it with the DHC-2 Beaver, and am working on a set for use with the excellent freeware Grumman Widgeon twin radial by Joe Binka; that FS2004 aircraft also works well in FSX. :iidea:

Grumman Widgeon VC radial engines

<tbody>

"File Description:
A very rare version of a Radial Widgeon. 450hp P&W R-985 engines gives solid performance on a rather light aircraft. VC has night lighting and custom XML gauges, a switch to move the yoke out of the way, rain effects, and much more. Exterior model weighs in at just under 18,000 polys. Clean mesh and tight texture maps allows this high detail model to run very smooth. Engine temperature management is required to prevent overheating, dont forget the cowl flaps! Airfiles are scratch built, and meet the few numbers I could find for this rare version of the Widgeon. Custom sounds, big and beefy... but a good custom set would replace it. Many hours into this project, I hope you enjoy it so far. Happy flyin!"
