F-18 Startup Sound


Phantom_A320

Recommended Posts

Hello, 

Kinda surprised nobody has mentioned (that I can find) this problem. There was an update a few updates back that completely ruined the startup sounds in the hornet for me. It used to have that awesome howl when starting the engines and now it sounds kinda like the sound file was inadvertently slowed down and the pitch shifted down as a result. Just sounds really bad.

The current sounds in DCS: https://streamable.com/0pb5bz

 

A much better sounding real hornet (what DCS used to sound like, video should be timestamped): 

 


Is there any plans to fix this?

Hi

 

can I ask you to repeat and then save a track replay, and attach your dcs log from the same session. 

 

This will help us check for errors.

 

thanks

There was a thread related to this in Wishlist on the low-RPM effects. @btd specifically mentions increasing the length of the startup sound, but also that the parameters can be customized after others pointed out the timing of the spool-up can vary.

I see, The length is fine its the pitch of it that is off now. Before the update it sounded pretty good. But now its too low.

You are definitely right. There is a bug with the initial pitch of the sound. You have perfect ears 🙂 I will fix it

I'm not the OP and I can't help here, but I just wanted to say that you probably set a new record time for fixing something!
