fsx-se Adding cockpit voice sounds to MD-11?

[HighBypass 2,339]

We're talking freeware here, not PMDG etc. I've been flying the iFDG MD-11 around for some time now. I've found a reasonable CF6 sound set, but that's just the turbine sounds.

 

As you know, the MD-11 had female voice callouts - 2500, minimums, autopilot etc. Can I just add those into the sound cfg file under other sounds? Or, are some of the sounds tied into gauges on the panel? 

 

Thanks.

No, you need to write an XML gauge to control the sounds, find usable sound samples and turn them into .wav files and then tie both together with Doug Dawson's XML sound gauge.

...ack! Thanks Bjoern! I had a suspicion that it would not be so easy.

I wrote a how-to on adding sounds to the cockpit sound gauge a while ago. While not directly applicable to adding callouts, it does provide some insight and a base to work from.
