    Post 17 Warning old domain name stealing credentials

  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Mirage F1 C

Thanks D5turbi
Considering this plane has its origins all the way back in FS9 it looks great in MSFS.

I just took it for a quick spin around the Mach Loop and I like it, I need to read the manual though as I had a warning that sounded like a rape alarm screaming at me for most of the flight .

That's right, I was also affected by this alarm once.
I don't remember what caused it or what code triggers it.
I'll look into it
 
Just reminder of how far ahead of the game Kirk Olsson was - his F-16's were superb. Wonder if he is still involved in the sim world in any way?
 
OK, I found it:
This alarm is the overspeed alarm.
Two solutions to stop hearing it:
1/ lower the speed of the F1
2/ disable the following lines in the file Mirage-F1/sound/sound.cfg
[OVERSPEED_WARNING_SOUND]
filename=jetovsp
maximum_volume=10000

I don't know if Kirk is still involved in the sim world, but I received, via Frank, permission to use his F1 on the condition that the version is not commercial.
Don't ask me to adapt his F-16, it's a very (too) long job.

no I think we have enough Vipers coming so you're good there !!

I figured it was something to do with speed but it goes off at anything over 300knot so I must have something on or off that's triggering it over that speed.
 
Sorry, I couldn't find a way to fix the overspeed warning.
Other testers don't have this problem, so I wonder if it's caused by a MSFS setting.
If you are affected, you can disable this sound in the file
mirage-f1\SimObjects\Airplanes\Mirage-F1\sound\Sound.cfg
like this:
//[OVERSPEED_WARNING_SOUND]
//filename=jetovsp
//maximum_volume=10000
or by replacing the file with the attached one and renaming it Sound.cfg.
(the .cfg extension is not accepted by the forum for uploading, so I had to replace it with .txt)
