I think that's exactly how it sounds in DCS :lol:.

Gotta agree here... I think ED nailed it! :thumbup:

gotta love that inertial starter!

Inertia starter yes but engine sound is quite far from real one.

Unlikely to happen due to the sounds script they're using for the starter sequence. I tried hard in my mod but it's very difficult to work out a way around it without it sounding goofy.

Have to agree, the engine kicking in sounds great. Can't really complain about the existing sounds though, but who'd not love that sound track?

========================================

Not JSGME compatible. I had to create my own JSGME outline myself.

The stock sound is more like my two stroke lawn mower.

Nothing like the real thing unfortunately.

I was trying several sound mods made by Diveplane, unfortunately I found all of them unusable. Reason are the sounds are not well balanced in various engine regimes: sometimes to loud, sometimes too low and strange transitions

I do have excellent sound peripherals (soundcard Creative + headset Plantronics) and they are simply "crying". I do prefer ED sounds over those by far.

^ My observations as well. That, coupled with the fact that their creator turned out to be arrogant primadonna, considering himself to be Jesus Christ incarnation of sound modding (with no basis in reality I'd say), left some bad taste in my mouth.

That's why I'm still using stock sounds, although Stuka's mod from this thread is very promising (I don't like all of the samples, so I'm figuring out how to leave preferred ones) and I'm eagerly waiting for Jafa's Merlin mod. Both shape up to be much better than Diveplane's offerings.

I'm using stukas sounds for external stuff but left the internal ones stock. Just delete what you don't want from the folder and install it with jsgme. Works fine. :)

Thanks for the info.

I don't necessarily think any of them are bad so to speak. I actually quite like parts of alot of them. However I would agree that most of them don't quite sound like a DB605 to me.

There's no chance anyone will be able to come up with a definite 'realistic' sound without the ability to make dozens of high quality sound recordings and the skillset of a professional audio engineer. That said it's close to impossible for modders to acchieve that kind of accurancy with only basic means.

As far as cockpit sounds are concerned there are some good recordings availabel from G-2 Black 6 or from G-4 Red 7 of the Messerschmittstiftung. The real problem starts to arise with the external engine sounds since they're hard to capture when the actual airplane is in motion.

Another issue lies in the sound script of DCS. Due to the way it's setup the Bf109 K4 shares sounds with the P-51 and Fw 190 which makes it difficult to replace them without messing with the other aircrafts. Also, as said earlier in the thread, the starter sound is also heavily scripted in a way that makes it difficult to recreate it accurately.

I would appreciate if ED took the time to revisit these sounds like they did with the P-51 but at the same time I do not see that happening in near future.

Recently posted, but deleted by Admin due to mentioning other games.

So I deleted the name of the game to fulfill forum rules.

To be entirely honest, I've not a sausage how the real one sounds when in the cockpit.

It certainly isn't going to sound like it does on the various go-pro videos from inside the cockpit.

I've also seen videos of BST going off and getting sound samples, I suspect ED operate in the same way, and I'd wager a company throwing some money and a team at it can probably* do a better job of getting accurate sounds than a chap doing it for free and chopping up sound samples in his bedroom/house.

*There are exceptions.

DCS Bf109 released 2014, last Bf109 flight at Flying Legends in 2015. Today 2017 and still no proper sound in DCS. I will be very, very glad if I’m wrong with previous post and someone will finally make sound records with new sounds for DCS Bf109K.

I don't wont to argue with you here. My info is late 2014. but it doesn't matter after all. We are here to discuss something else, remember?

Ehm... Right. The same engineer, who used generic, known from other games, non-RRMerlin sample for ExIn2.wav in second revision of Spitfire soundset (changed to more relevant one in the third revision I admit). Just sayin'...

Having access to aircraft for recording sessions is one thing, but processing these well into good samples is completely different kettle of fish, especially when working on a sound code which I'm sure still has roots in LockOn era. Gumidek might go too far in suggesting that 109 sounds were not recorded off the real thing, but ED-developed modules have never been the industry benchmark in engine sounds department (prop or jet ones, doesn't matter) and 109 soundset is also a bit of a mixed bag, quality-wise (note I haven't mentioned Belsimtek).

I use it anyway, because it has carefully adjusted volume levels and sample transitions done better than custom, modded sounds. Nevertheless, one can just watch (and listen) again "One Summer, Two Messerschmitts" DVD, produced by TFC guys themselves, recording the Black 6 and Blue 8 with certainly something better than GoPro camera, to notice that DCS 109 sounds are not state-of-the-art in all situations, angles, distances and fall somewhat shorter compared the competition from the "other", also Russian, WWII sim dev studio.

There's always room for improvement and If we just keep on patting on the back and pretend everything's perfect, DCS will never develop into something even better than it already is.
