April 1, 200620 yr Hello everyone,I have noticed that on select panels, instead of the normal seatbelt/no smoking sign "ding" you end up with this cheap other noise. I think that this is because of HGHB_seat-belts.gau, but cannot find the WAV file associated with it. How can I change the sound file played with this when this guage is used?Thanks,Pete
April 2, 200620 yr Hi,>>>>instead of the normal seatbelt/no smoking sign "ding" you end up with this cheap other noise.<<<<
April 2, 200620 yr I know exactly what you mean. I had that silly seatbelt sound on one of my planes. Sounds like a cheap keyboard ding!Have you checked:Program FilesFlight Simulator 2004SoundLook for a file named "sign" or "signs". If one of them is the nice one then just copy-paste it into the same directory and give it the name of the silly one (that you then delete).If you cannot find the sound then download the panel that the bad sound came with and do not install it...just examine the files to see what the sound file is called. Then search your FS9 directory for that sound (you will now know the exact name).
April 2, 200620 yr Yes, that is what it is. Actually, its like a high ding, immediately followed by a lower ding, quickly followed. The gauge is the one I said before HGHB..... But, do all sounds that come in a panel have to have a sound file, too. Because I recall one 757 panel I downloaded (Lonny Payne's I think) that seemed to have its own mind, so to speak. Like, the folder it came in didn't have a sound folder, yet the panel still made sounds. And, when you turned sound off in FS2004, the sounds still played! It was kind of weird. But, it is worth downloading it again, because the chances are it is in the sound folder?Thanks.
April 2, 200620 yr Author The gauge you mention has its sounds embedded within the gauge file. They cannot be changed.Doug
