November 29, 200619 yr Moderator Those who have FSX and need a great laugh, open up the R-22 sound folder, and listen to XRotor.wav, XWhup.wav and XWind.wav... These were obviously left in by accident, as they are clearly the dev's "temporary sound effects" during development... :-lol Fr.

November 29, 200619 yr ROFL... I don't want to spoil the fun, so I won't tell you all what it is. All I can say is that it is worth listening to.

November 29, 200619 yr No Bill,How in the name of all that is good did you come across these files??I have a mental image of you, huddled over your computer late, late at night, just trying various things at random: "No, that's not funny....uh, nothing here....oh golly! Bingo!" :-jumpy-Rick----------- My System -----------P4 @ 2.53 GHz / 1GB RAM / NVIDIA GeForce 6800XT, 256MB / Windows XP Home
November 29, 200619 yr Well, I was up in a Robinson a few months ago and this sounds pretty authentic. OK it was about to go in for a service!
November 29, 200619 yr Wild!Do you remember the movie "Mars Attacks" where the Marsians only said "gak-gak gak-gak-gak" through the whole film. That was originally just dummy sound FX from the sound designers, but the director (Tim Burton i think) loved it, and kept it.With a little renaming you can swap the sounds and make a toy-chopper with ready-made sound!Eagle
November 29, 200619 yr LOL! Actually, the "rotor.wav" and "whup.wav" are the same sound muffled down.

Another beta tester noticed them first and I simply reported the find here because is IS funny.Now I have a mental image of this (unknown) ACES developer sitting in his office with the door closed, hunched over his microphone and hoping that no one would walk into his office and "catch him in the act," so to speak... :-laugh1 BURBLE-BURBLE-BURBLE-BURBLE... :-rotor Fr.

November 29, 200619 yr There are a lot of files in FSX that should have been pulled before it shipped. Have a look at the the following "textures" in the texture folder:Group1.r8Group2.r8Microsoft's pre-RTM review process has been lax for some time...
