Etendard IV M/P final package is out!!

[ZsoltB]

French Acceleration LSO voice?

I need French LSO voice!
Can someone help me?

 

[Dag]

A Super Mystere B2 to the same quality would be a dream come true ?

I agree with Dag this add on is right up at the top of the list of the Best add ons for FSX. As a kid I used to think the IVM and P models the Etendard where a bit of an ugly duckling but its grown on me and the Clem Carrier is outstanding... I love all the little touches like the Deck crew and static aircraft. Thank you Sylvain and all those who helped you... a lot of fun.

I found this in a discussion of one of the Etendard betas from last year:

The LSO's voice doesn't use the Etendard sound folder but dsd_xml_sound gauge and the Acceleration carrier mission sound files.
Please check that your VHF sound light is on (close to the gear lever), and also that Clemenceau Tacan frequency is tuned on Nav2 with PHI mode set to "Tac".

I don't know if that helps. If you want a French LSO voice you might have to install a French language copy of FSX. Those language files are probably commercial files copyrighted by Microsoft and shouldn't just be handed around.

No more! no more! I'm blushing...

Just a little more Sylvain

We made a four ship on multiplayer last night and had a fantistic time. One of our team had worked out the Tacan setup and so we followed the needle to rendezvous with the Clemenceau and had the LSO talk us down [well, two of us got voice from the LSO and we have to work out why the other two didn't].

The carrier animations and launch setup are just superb. Love the way the canopy mists up and the drag chute works a treat too...

This model is definately deserving of an award or two - stunning work :salute:

Hi Dave,
Thank you! We spent also a lot of time around the Clem flying in multiplayer sessions...
For the LSO, check to have:
- green radio button On (left panel)
- PHI target selector on "Carrier" (aside the parking brake handle)
- Tacan/Nav2 tuned on 110.0Mhz

This should be enough to ear the "charming" LSO voice...
Ragards,
Sylvain

PS : very nice scenery Dave : Nîmes-Garons is great!!

You're very welcome Sylvain and thank you for the instructions. I think we have to check the PHI selector was on the correct setting.

I'm not sure about the voice being 'charming'.... Perhaps in French he might be!

I read the section in the manual about 'In Flight Refuelling', but could I ask if it's possible to see the refuelling basket of another pilot in a peer to peer session?

Glad you like Nîmes-Garons. I think we were very fortunate there was excellent information available to help us.

Thanks,

Dave :salute:

Brilliant work! I have just one small query! I get a rather annoying undulating 'wave like' roar in the cockpit, that is not linked to the engine noise. It may well be authentic, but it is starting to give me headache Anybody else heard it?

Hi Calypsos,

Yes, I get it too, but only in high 'G' manouvers. Sounds to me like the kind of buffeting noise you might get in such turns... I think! :salute:

I suggest you either take paracetamol or treat the old girl a bit more gentle

I hear this as well.

Hi!

Yes it sounds like the buffeting sound... You can set it off using the "Stick shaker" switch: it is on the left sidepanel (item #3 page 5)

Headache? mmm... it means that we have used the right sound!!
Never forget that you're flying a typical Dassault jet : meaning "under powered"!!

Regards,
Sylvain

Sylvain, thank you for this superb aircraft . At the risk of asking a stupid question: How do I fold the wings? I searched through the English manual, on page 31 it says "5 Half folding wings" but I could not find the switch.

thanks for your advice, Henk.

Hello,

The folding of the wing tips is done by a mechanician. So, to simulate the action of the mechanician, you will have to use the shortcut command to fold the wing. The default shortcut command is Snift+Ctrl+W but you may choose another key assignment.

Have a good day

Use the Wing Fold command to fold/unfold the wing tips. On the real aircraft the tips are folded manually by the ground crew; there is no switch or level for the pilot to use. In FS the aircraft must be on the ground before you can manually fold the wings. And though not totally realistic, you don't have to be parked -- you can fold them while taxiing.

Sorry bmd, just saw your post. Would have posted sooner but was waiting for FSX to load.

Super-Etendard? no now it's time for "farniente", long evening drinking fresh drinks and eating peanuts, saussage, etc.. with friends...

More seriously, Super-Etendard is not on our priority list so far, we need something more different...some carriers for sure, after... who says "Crusader"?!?

Sylvain
