P3D + HIHI Active Sky Thunder Sounds

[PhillT 0]

Hi,

I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask, but as in this forum the support is really excellent, I'll try it first here ...

I have P3D 4.5 hotfix and Active Sky + ASCA running. Today, I found myself in a thunderstorm when starting up P3D at LOWI. I saw all the lightning, but there was no thunder audible. Well, at least, maybe, there was thunder, but really really low and not sure if it really was some thunder. Where can I find the settings to make it louder? In P3D sound settings I set enviroment to maximum, but it had no effect. When starting AS I can hear the startup thunder. I can also hear rain. I've never been in a thunderstorm before, so I can't say if this was working previously.

Thank you for your help!

No sim looks like it should during stormy weather. The cirrus overcast layer is always missing.

Not in Florida.

Thanks for your replies, but sorry to say, they don't help a lot. I didn't ask about REX but ActiveSky. Anyone can help with that? Thank you!

Borked effects files? You can try a repair of client and content, see if that works.

 

FWIW, I disagree that SF is better than ASCA. I think you're just fine with what you're running.

ASP does not offer you enhanced sound effects. REX SF does.

AS uses the default thunder sounds in P3D. You might search for replacement files.
