Sikorsky S76A Spirit V1.0 released

Fuel pump sound:

Add this to the bottom of the sound.cfg (works for ANY aircraft using the default fuel pump .wav file, by the way!):
Code:
[fuel_pump]
maximum_volume=3000

Blade slap sound:

Find the sound-config.ini. In the lines containing "BELL4xx-SLAP1.wav, 100" and "BELL4xx-SLAP2.wav, 100", the "100" designates the gain for the audio sample. Lower the value (negative values are allowed) to make it quieter.
Bjoern, My problem with the Fuel Pump wav file was that it was attached to 3 non-fuel pump switches (both Gen Switches and the Battery). Those couldn't be turned off obviously, so I elected to rename the wav file to eliminate it completely.

I'll give the Blade Slap suggestion a go though.

Thanks

Well, a pump does need electricity...the question should rather be why it is coded to be always on. And the sound.cfg tweak makes the sound pretty much inaudible, so there's absolutely no need to rename WAV files.
 
I've no idea why this would make a difference, but I moved my XMLTools.dll to my Modules folder, it's now working fine.
Code:
      <Launch.Addon>
        <Name>XMLTools</Name>
        <Disabled>False</Disabled>
        <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
        <Path>Modules\XMLTools.dll</Path>
        <DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
        <DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
      </Launch.Addon>
