    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.

Wing42's Boeing 247D released

Great work!!! The pricing is incredible for what you get. All those working systems and gadgets. Gotta love it.
 
How is the engines sound ?

In the video i seem to hear the dreaded phasing effect every now and then during flight (caused by using the exact same sound wav file for multiple engines).

Can any B247 pilot verify that please ?

Thanks!

No issues with the engines sounds that I have noticed
 
Waiting for Jan Bloom

Waiting for liveries now by Jankees. Looking for the Wien Alaska and the Western Air Express He usually has a livery out before the release lol
 
Jankees is on holiday, 1500km away from his sim/paint computer, so you'll need a bit more patience I fear

Yes indeed. The aircraft is well crafted, but on occasion there is audio phasing during exterior views. Ccockpit radial audio is curiously low. He might be simulating headphone wearing. Much louder if you open a window.

Thanks GA and dvj.

Remains noteworthy that developers often go full throttle on the graphics of their product so that it seems there's not enough fuel left to cover for a likewise brilliant sound suite. Personally i can't very well understand why they think sound is hardly important and is just something they have to include as 'a rule of thumb'. Doesn't matter much, just that there's some kind of engine sound to hear when the starter switch is pushed in....

Indeed, between all the comments on various fora about the Boeing i have seen only *one* comment that adresses the difference between the superb quality of the internal/external model and the lack thereof of the soundsuite.

I haste to say that i have a fair amount of experience in development of FS soundsuites but absolutely non re MSFS. I understand it is much different compared to what it entails for all former versions of FS.

I bought the package but haven't tried/seen/hear it yet. I do like the modeling very much. If the sound is anything like i hear in the video i'll keep it in my hangar and just look at it. :)

More time today on this sim. I can still here the occasional phasing. What is noticeable is the lack of 360 degree exterior sounds which may or may not be evident in the videos. The internal and external modeling is very good. Although I cannot comment on the accuracy without comparing real world pictures. It certantly has a lot of animations and features.
