MegaScenery SoCal v2 "sound" question

Recommended Posts

Hello.

I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out here.

After purchasing a few FS2004 products from MegaScenery (they were only $1 each) I have noticed an issue with an odd sound being added during ground roll and decent speeds.  And it appears to happen with all aircraft.  Why on earth this scenery would change anything having to do with sound is a little baffling but it's for sure coming from that.  If I disable the MegaScenery the odd sound is gone.

Has anyone else had this issue or possibly know why in the world this would be happening?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Wow! Great price.  Never had any sound issues that I can remember when I was flying FS2004 with MegaScenery.  Sure there isn't some other 3rd party utility or aircraft you have installed lately?  I would cut everything down to the minimum.  De-select all third party programs and test with a few default aircraft.

Netgear 1Gbps modem & router, (3) 27" 1440 wrap-around displays

Hi Carob,

As you know, I also have MS SoCal v2 for FS2004 and I am not getting any such "odd" sound.  You mentioned "all aircraft", but is it only at one particular airport?  KSAN comes to mind for me...:biggrin:

Takeoff groundroll, landing ground roll, or both?  You said "decent speeds", did you mean "descent speeds"?  If so, the sound occurs while airborne also?

It's definitely the scenery.  The only thing I can think of is because the "ground" is different that something is bleeding through and causing a different effect against the wheels.

Nope, I meant decent.  As in up to speed.  Only occurs on the ground but with all planes.  Disable MegaScenery and the (very annoying) sound is gone.  Very strange.

Okay,

Any way you can 'record" the sound so we can play it here and maybe get an idea what it is?

So after more testing, with some traveling in-between, I've found what makes sense.  The MegaScenery is not to blame for the strange sound.  However, MegaScenery does seem to make the sound more prominent for some strange reason.  Still haven't figured that one out.
