Hallo!I´m new in this forum and hope, to don´t make anything wrong...I was searching at google the forum search engine and I was searching for a searching thread, and haven´t find anything, so here is my question:I just want to get a "spoilers up" sound, when I deploy the spoilers! I already have a .wmv sound file and I already read and read and read... the readme of the dsd_xml_3sound package! And I undersand nothing!!I also read a thread in this forum, that says I have to create a .dll file?!?!?So I don´t know how to make a .dll fileI don´t know what I have to wright in the .ini FileI only know what to add to the panel.cfg file!I also asked "edetroit" in You Tube how to do that, and he said, I have to write this into this forum so:Can anyone give me some tipps or maybe a full tutorial how to add a sound like this to a panel???It would be great for me :D

I'm not sure but the question may have been answered Here ...Don

I readed this thread!But I have FS2004 and I don´t know what exactly to write down into a xml gauge or something I need for that!

Hi,this what I wrote in the threat mentioned above :Hi,this is a example ( out of my TCAS development work) how you should define your dsd_xml....I created a folder with the name TCAS and copied into the main Gauges folder of FSX.1. This TCAS folder includes the dsd_xml_sounde.dll. I renamed it to sound3.dll .2. I have two .wav files . TCAS_Alert.wav and TCAS_warn.wav.3. The sound.ini file is as well in this folder and looks like this:[Config]MaxSounds=4Lvar=TCAS_SoundIdLvarStop=TCAS_SoundStop[sounds]Sound00=./Gauges/TCAS/TCAS_Warn.wavSound01=./Gauges/TCAS/TCAS_Alert.wav[LVars]Lvar00=TCAS_WarnLvar01=TCAS_AlertNow you have to work with the LVars "TCAS_Warn" and "TCAS_Alert" in your XML code in order to trigger the sound.The entry in your panel.cfg must be in ths example like this:gaugexx=TCAS/Sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 0,0,,, ./gauges/TCAS/Sound.iniNow FSX looks into the TCAS folder in the main Gauges folder, will find "Sound3" and adress "dsd_xml_sound3" name in the .dll.The definition " ,, ./gauges/TCAS/Sound.ini " is the path where the Sound.ini file is located.Thats the way I work with it, and it works perfect.Hope this helpsDietmar If you are on FS9 you may need version 2 of the dsl.dll . Anyway, if you cannot trigger the sound within a XML code by using the defined variableyou may not achieve anything. You need some XML know how at the minimum. Sorry, but things are not always so easy.Dietmar

Does it works in FS2004 too?

Hi,Yes, but see the last answer in:http://forum.avsim.net/topic/295479-the-sound-of-silence/Jan
