LockOn Sounds Project

Post by Frazer » Sun Apr 12, 2009 8:55 am

We see a lot of aircraft and terrain mods created by the community for LockOn, which is great. Though, I think the sounds in LockOn stay behind. In my opinion, sounds make the sim for a big part and are at least as important as nice looking terrain or 3D model.

There are quite some limitations regarding the sound system of LockOn, but there is still room for improvement, also over previous sound mods.

I've created two ALPHA versions of the Su27 and F16 project.

(Read the README please)
LockOnSoundsProject_F16_AV1

The idea is to create a sound mod for every aircraft, this may seem a bit odd, but if you want the most realistic sounds possible within LockOn, this is the only way to do it. The reason for this is easy, there are simply not enough sound files in LockOn (multiple aircraft use the same sounds).

The following aircraft are planned for the first official release:
Su27/Su33
Mig29
F15
F16
F18

To make this project work out as well as possible I need help from the community though. Every one of you has aviation videos on their hard drive and I need those, rare high quality ones without music or other environmental noises (like people chatting, blowing winds and so on).

If you have movies like that, please contact me by PM or email so that I can give you the FTP address for uploading.

Greatly appreciated.

This is good news! I know Gunner uses your older sound mods still, and likes them a lot. I'm guilty of having been too lazy to install :oops: , but I'm definitely looking forward to this now. :D

@Frazer, check your email. :wink:
