Missing Engine Sound - One of Tim Conrad's Planes

Featured Replies

Hi, I'm running FSX Gold with Acceleration and DX10, I've installed Tim Conrads lovely looking Antonov An-32, but there is no engine sound. The sound folder is aliased to the crj700 (?), I've tried swapping out the sound folder with the default King Air, but still no sound. Checked all the levels...

 

Any ideas?

I just downloaded and tried this aircraft.  All engine sounds inside and outside sound OK, if you happen to

 

like the default CRJ-700 engine sound.  I would look around a try a turbo-prop sound file for this aircraft.

 

I'll do a quick search to see what's out there.  You didn't delete the crj-700, did you?

 

I found a sound folder from my Dash8-100 sounded pretty good!

Here you will find sound packages suitable to the an32. Do a search and pick one that you like:

I'm happy to try one of these, but still think the sound will not play. I did swap the folder provided with the default King Air, but still got silence.

 

I will try another sound folder you have recommended, but I feel I am missing something.

Are cockpit and engine sounds outside working for all other aircraft?  You didn't hit (Q) and turn sounds off??

I downloaded the An-32 again, with the same silent results. BUT when I changed the alias to the King Air I got a result! Maybe the fact I am using Audio Environment for my jet airliners complicated matters. After that I swapped the sound folder in the An-32 for the Hawker Siddley 748 and it worked! Yay! Those engines are deafening, with a lovely air thrashing scream ... Fitting those massive prop blades on the An-32...

 

Just fownloaded the UN texture, and I'm off flying humanitarian missions into small strips all over East Africa, then hopping into the Afghan air force texture for some great rides into Afghanistan - with people shooting at me courtesy of fsPassengers!!

Quickly checked You Tube, and the sound of the real An-32 sounds just like the turboprops of the HS748, so I'm officially a happy man :)
