Constant Thud sound in cockpit

Featured Replies

Hello Everyone:Lately - I've been having problems with a constant thud sound in the cockpit of FeelThere's CRJ-200. I tried cycling the sound on/off (by pressing Q twice) -- but that doesn't fix the problem. If I press Q twice - I either hear the same sound after it comes back on - or I hear a different sound --- which sounds like a HUGE rush of air -- as if I were in a hurricane or somethin....Any ideas how I can fix this? I'll try to see if I can pinpoint which files are playing constantly...I don't think I'm having problems with other aircraft.Thanks in advance - all help is appreciatedEDIT: I found the sound files (I think). The "thud" sound is similar to crjroll.wav and the "hurricane" sound is similar to gearair.wav. Both are in the sound folder for FeelThere's CRJ.EDIT 2: I found out that this annoying thud sound falls under the "environmental" category in FS (I disabled it -- the sound went away.) I've uploaded the sound here to avsim for your listening pleasure... :)

Make sure everything on the flight deck is securely locked down ;)

Autopilot on? Could it be the autopilot correcting trim? Otherwise it might be your stewardess whacking the FO over the head for being too frisky.MarkMark "Dark Moment" BeaumontVP Fleet, DC-3 AirwaysTeam Member, MAAM-SIM[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cathayhk.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/maamlogo2.jpg[/a]

I don't think the AP is on - but I'll check.Any other ideas? Deleting the FS9.cfg file didn't fix it -- luckily I backed it up before I trashed it :)EDIT: The AP is not on -- even after re-installing the CRJ - the thud noise still happens...Does anybody else know about this? Can someone post the {SOUND} section of their FS9.cfg file for me to compare mine against?Thanks

Hi,The sound is like the wind! Is there a window open? Andy.ps. Q in mine is set up to turn off the engines and that's default I'm sure-- so could the noise be the engines unspooling or whatever j....s do?

Hi,Do you have Active Camera installed? Your problem sounds very similar to one I had a long time ago. Somebody on this forum advised me to turn off a sound setting (in Active Camera). I just cannot remember what it was. If you have Active Camera, let me know. I will look and see what it was I unchecked to make the sound go away.Nick

I have the CRJ200 (Have not flown it in a long time) and the loud wind noise could be the APU, Packs, and battery sounds. I can't remember, but I edited them to a MUCH lower volume long ago. Hope this helps.
