    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.

Sound issue with AI Aircraft

P

Hello all,

Since there are no individual AI sounds for World War 2 AI aircraft, I use the normal sounds I can find for each of my AI Aircraft. Some of them, such as my Hellcats and Corsairs, work quite fine whereas others, such as my Zeros ans Spitfires have a sound volume issue. My warbirds fly in squadrons of 4 units that take off and land every 5 minutes. So I look at the first one that comes in to land, its sound is fine, I watch it for a few minutes, then I change to the second aircraft when its tail number appears on the pop-up AI Aircraft list. That's when the issue occurs. The sound suddenly becomes very loud to the extent that I can barely hear ATC. When I change back to the first aircraft, the sound remains loud, too loud. And it does until the last aircraft shutdowns its engine after stopping at its stand.

Any idea of what's causing this and is there a way to fix it ?

Thank you so much for your kind help and cooperation.

Pierre_NC.
 
Try tapping the "Q" key once to shut off the sound, then tap it again to turn it back on. I have a similar problem with some standard Aircraft (not AI). I have no idea why it happens, but the "Q" key works most of the time.

Thank you very much for the tip, falcon, I'll sure give it a try.
 
If you are looking for Warbirds sounds try checking over in the CFS2 library. There are many custom soundpacks over there for things like Spitfires, P-51s, Corsairs etc.

No reason why you can't use them as AI sounds.

Thank you for your kind advice and that's what I do actually. Some do work quite fine whereas others have that issue I'm talking about.
