Scenery Sounds

From what I see, it doesn't require Lago's unavailable FSE for the sounds but uses FSUIPC instead.

One new feature which Bill has incorporated into the scenery is sound. Now some of you may be familiar with LAGO's FS Sound enhancement to their scenery packages. Through the creative talents of Pete Dowson, anyone can experience the same with this scenery of Bill's. You will need to download the latest FSUIPC file.

I have sounds, but hard for me to be sure as I have FSUIPC ang Lago's FSE installed. Try FSUIPC first, sounds like it should do the trick, plus it has many other advantages too, lots of tools/aircraft/utils/etc use it.

I am currently running the latest FS9 revision of FSUIPC (unregistered)
do I need to buy FSUIPC to make this work?
 
not sure, but I'd imagine no. Is there anything in the readme with it relating to settings for scenery, esp add-on scenery settings?

I've had this Bear Canyon West Field scenery for a long time (Bill Lyons Cub pkg), the freeware version when it first came out, and I don't think the "additional sounds" were included...at least my copy didn't have them.

It's a neat scenery, even after all this time. However, no roaring bear, clanging buoy, or night ambiance of owls, crickets and such. The bear is there and rears up when you approach, but no sounds.

I didn't even have the oogah horn on the jeep for the longest time (activated with flaps command F5/F8) until I noticed that in the sound.cfg, the flaps portion called for filename=oogah1 and the wav file is oogah.wav. Changed the flaps callout to filename=oogah and I can at least honk at the rearing, mute bear.

The Bear Canyon signs showed up as large green squares (entrance sign/ hangar/on the jeep/at the dock) until I converted it in DXTbmp. Painted the background black, added alpha black, and saved as dxt3.

Had to read thru my old and sparse notes to recall this info...Hope that helps!

EDIT: BTW, I have FSUIPC payware version, but no help without the sounds.
 
Have you ever tried this? This is similar to what you are asking about.

This program implements sounds in the FS. There are two sound sets: One for night flying with owls etc and one for day flying with birds. The Sounds are activated by stopping the engine. This program uses FSUIPC and the necessary key is provided by the program. [/FONT]

It works by starting the program before you launch Flightsim. Start with engines off. That triggers the program to play a loop of ambient environment. Birds, traffic, over head planes. Total submersion. I actually recorded and mixed together my own set of day/night ambient sounds in very wide stereo.[/FONT] It's awesome to land somewhere and taxi to parking, shutdown and listen to the outdoor sounds, and AI coming in and leaving. It's found at Avsim.
