Guenter-

You know I am a fan, and now that the updated version is out for v4.5 could we please revisit this?  I have BOTH this version and the Aerosoft An-2 (also just updated). Is it possible for the one module to work with both?  If not, the AT version should be mostly ok, as it is the updated Sibwings version, nicht?

Grosse Danke!

Hello Carl,

 

indeed I have started with a Aerosoft AN2 module, and no, it is not possible to use this for both.

 

During the programming of the module, which lets me dive deep into the systems of such an addon. I have encountered some "typical Aerosoft" issues, which have slowed my enthusiasm a bit 😉

 

So, I asked myself, if the AT version is better than the AS version?

Does the AT Version have a deep enough system and engine simulation?

Is the engine interior sound better than the AS one, which is very silenced and kills immersion in my opinion?

Does it have animated raindrops on the windscreen?

 

If you could answer some of these questions positive it could be highly possible that I will get the AT AN2 also 😀

Ok, I was too curious and couldn't resist ... and bought the sibWings/AT AN2 also.

 

And it was very clear for me, that the Aerosft AN2 is much better. Systems are much deeper!

And I was able to "transform" the engine sound from the AT AN2 to the AS AN2 and it is now a joy to fly. That was really sth. that was killing the immersion.

 

So, get yoursefl also the Aerosoft AN2 and you could enjoy a LINDA module very soon 😉

Guenter-

I have both versions already.  See email.

Thanks- C

Ok, here is a description, how you could do it easily:

 

 

1) Copy all AT Antonov sounds from the ATS An2 into the AS sound folder:

AT sounds are in

Prepar3D v4\SimObjects\Airplanes\ATS_Antonov_2\sound

 

AS sounds are normally in

Prepar3D v4\Ecosystem\Aerosoft\OctopusGroup An-2\SimObjects\Airplanes\OctopusG_An-2\sound

(I write "normally" as they could have been also installed in a different location, but then you should know where it is)

 

 

Attention: DO NOT copy the file sound.cfg from AT to AS sound folder! Just copy all *.wav files (hope you have the file endings enabled?) We don't need all *.wav files, but doesn't matter, just copy them all.

 

 

2) Edit the sound.cfg file of the AS An2

First back up the original one! Copy it onto a save place or whatever.

 

Then copy this modified code into the AS AN2 sound.cfg and replace it completely!
