Hi !

I'm often flying online with the PMDG on IVAO network.

So i have to listen very carefully to the messages of the ATCs.

 

But the sounds (particulary the wind sound when in flight) is to high because when i landed the quiet come back. So in flight, i often can't understand what the ATC is saying.

I tried to reduce the numbers in the FMC (page SOUND), but that isn't reducing the volume.

 

Please how can i do to reduce the volume of the wind when flying in the NGX ?

 

Many thanks guy !!!

You need to find the "sound.cfg" file for your a/c. Look for the part that looks similar to that below and change the maximum volume.

 

[WIND_SOUND]

filename=c5wind33

flags=0

viewpoint=1

minimum_speed=40.00

maximum_speed=220.00

minimum_volume=7800

maximum_volume=12000

minimum_rate=0.70

maximum_rate=1.00

Thanks, but my sound.cfg of my 738 NGX PMDG is not as your. When i edit it, here it is :

So i can't recognize the element to modify in order to reduce the wind.

You need to do two things then:-

1. Download FS Sound Studio http://www.filestube.com/f/fs+sound+studio

2. Adjust all the vparams values to your liking.
