(Sorry for my poor English. I hope you undersand my sentences)

 

I wrote before about 777 is stuttered just before wheel contacts ground.

 

http://forum.avsim.net/topic/419325-fsx-freeze-just-before-nose-wheel-contacts-ground/?p=2782047

 

And I guess this is because many sound files are loaded and played at the moment.

 

So I made half sized files which are played on the ground. eg. nose gear rattle, contact, rolling sound files.

 

The Quality of half sized files is almost no differnce. 

 

I gonna test this now. And I will use the "Fraps" to measure average FRAME/sex.

 

Good luck for me.

Interesting, my sim runs very smooth except an annoying millisecond pause on touchdown. I thought I just needed to run a defrag.

 

Btw, check the typo at the end of your post, don't think your partner would appreciate you using fraps like that 

I love the 777 to but I draw the line at FRAME/sex. :wub: 

@Kim

 

Just found a previous post of yours on the same subject - Did you also shorten the touchdown sounds from 30 seconds?

 

I actually replaced most of the touchdown sounds and replaced 1 of the engine sounds for a more realistic  one.  

 

The pause still exists with the modified touchdown sound.   May just remove the touchdown sounds completely since I don't need them with the buttkicker.

Ok..

 

I tested several times with a FS recored file using FS RECORDER.

 

The frame is still stuttered.

 

And the stutterd time is reduced to half? because the file size is half?

 

Nope. not alt all

 

It's same :(

 

But when I delete whole sound folder of PMDG.

It was very smooth. Zero stutter.

Should I try test again with 1/3 size file? :(

Am flying so cant test.  I assume when landing the cockpit rattle/Nose touchdown & main touchdown sounds are all being loaded.  What happens if you (Backup) and remove those sounds? If you combine the size of those files it becomes quite large.

 

I've got 64mb sound card laying around somewhere, may have to look for it and give it a try.

Ok. I gonna test again.

 

this time I delete

 

- PMDG_777_CockpitRattleX.wav

- PMDG_777_NoseGearTDX.wav

- PMDG_777_NoseGearRattle.wav

- PMDG_777_NoseGearGroundroll.wav

 

Other files are all original.

 

First result - ZERO stutter . WOW

 

I gonna test again for accuracy.

PMDG_777_CockpitRattle1.wav

PMDG_777_CockpitRattle2.wav

PMDG_777_CockpitRattle3.wav

                   .

                   .

                   .

                   .

PMDG_777_CockpitRattle9.wav

 

These files are each 5mb ~ 9mb. The file size is various.

 

PMDG 777 chooses one from these files randomly to play sound at the touch-down moment.

 

This explains why the stutter phenomenon is little bit differ at each landing, because the file size should be loaded is differ! 

 

And

 

PMDG_777_NoseGearGroundroll.wav is 3.5mb

 

PMDG_777_NoseGearRattle.wav is 1.4mb

 

These three files are most bigger file to be loaded at touch down.

 

I delete these three files, and tested 5 times !

 

The result is ZERO STUTTER.

 

 

CONCLUTION: Let's make these file smaller using GOLD WAVE.

 

(Sorry for my poor English. )

 

This is nose gear rattle file. We don't need the tail section. This silence part makes this file more big with no reason. :( So I will cut the tail part 

Don't worry about your English, my posts are a lot worse most of the time!

 

Can you please send me the reduced files when you are done? (only the touch down & Rattle files)  I doubt PMDG will allow you to upload them anywhere.

 

Edit - Just for your information, Nose gear rattle only plays if you have the nose wheel failure active. I wouldn't mess about with that one.

 

Thanks

i would love to have them to

Ok. E-mail adress please~

sent via pm

Pm'ed I would like copy of the reduced file size sounds...

This sounds promising and further updates?

Works for me, no more micro pause on landing. I also removed the smoke touch down fx file, not sure if that also helped.
