How to get rid of cockpit fan noise?

Featured Replies

Well after downloading and checking the gauges, I cannot find any gauge with an attached sound file. I also installed the panel and there was no soundd as you described. Maybe one of the gauges did get overwritten and that is causing the problem. I really can't think of anything else do do at the moment. Maybe someone else has another idea.Good luck,Ed

Try commenting out this line:gauge24=rp727_2!altimeter, 453,511,81,80Worked for me...Doug

Doug:Success.Suc-fr#@&ggin-ess!I don't bull-leave it ! I don't geddit.This is NUTS!!....but then again, it is FS..JSP.S. Course there's no altimeter now, but maybe it became corrupted and I can re-0instal a fresh version. I'll try and report back.Thanks, mate. Thank You!!

This is what I replaced it with:727KM_ALTIMETER, 446,504,94If you don't have that particular gauge, it is available as part of Ken Mitchell's 727 panel package, which I believe is available here.Doug

Use a less realistic panel. If you were in a real 737-200 cockpit it's what you'd hear and seeing as the point is to capture the feel of the cockpit, it's there...yeesh.Done!

Doug:I have the KM 727 panel installed already. That;s super. Thanks again!JS

I had this noise problem with the 737-200 panel and isolated it to this file: rp732_400hz.wavDelete or rename that file and the incessant "buzz" is gone! Paul

Paul:Just scanned my GAUGES file and that isn't even in there (!)Guess it'll be KM's 727 altimeter replacement for me.Thanks for posting.JS

>Paul:>>Just scanned my GAUGES file and that isn't even in there (!)>>Guess it'll be KM's 727 altimeter replacement for me.>>Thanks for posting.>>JS I found that sound file, along with many others, in the panel folder. The panel is from Richard Probst, tinmouse.org I do recall hearing that agrivating noise some time back, also with a 737 as I recall. At that time I didn't go searching for the source...I just discontinued flying that bird. I believe I have some KM panels amongst my several hundred. I'll go digging around to see if I can track the other noisy one down. Paul
