F16 RWR Sounds

I found a way to make this work reliably. Place the RWR sounds in your DCS SAVED GAMES folder at the following path;

 

...\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\F-16\Cockpit\Tones

 

To be certain, you can also put the F/A-18 sounds in the folder;

 

...\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\FA-18\Cockpit\Tones

 

 

The F18 sounds can be found in your main DCS installation folder here;

 

...\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\FA-18\Cockpit\Tones

 

This will ensure that DCS "should" play the correct sounds for the correct aircraft.

Tyrants sound files no longer work for me with new update. Anyone else having this issue? If it’s working for someone can you tell me how?

Thanks

Works for me. Just installed it with JSGME as normal.

I never used Tyrant's mod, as placing the sound files in the main install dir also replaced my F-18 sounds. I don't know why, but whatever..

I made a mod of my own and placed the sounds in Saved Games\DCS\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\F-16\Cockpit\Tones\. Works fine.

Hi ! i'm trying to mod the F16 RWR with the BMS sounds , can't make it work. What files should be in /Tones ?  the .sdef or the .ogg ?

Just the audio files. I used them in .wav format, but .ogg should work too. Keep in mind that right now, the F-16 only has certain sounds, such as "new contact", "status change", "lock" and "launch warning". It does not support the full threat audio library. You have to put your sounds there and make sure their names are the same as the names of the default files.

I don't know what the default names are (ED has since encrypted the Sounds folders), maybe someone else can help here. I stopped using the mod a while ago, since I don't really fly the Viper now (waiting until it's completed).

.sdef files deal with which audio file is used and how a sound is played, more or less.

Ok thanks for the answer  ! 

Well if no library, no use of a full audio sounds, i'll keep the vanilla one  hope we'll get one like in BMS some day  

...many years later

Did anyone ever figure out the new default names and folder structure of the RWR? I'm trying to make a mod too.
