• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

A question from Stone Age (CFS2 gauges)

Hello Gents, as enounced, here is a question with some late (more than twenty years...)
Did somebody succeeded to generate sounds from CFS2 gauges, one can hear from CFS2 ?
I tried it using FSSound, or Doug Dawson's gauge and the CFS2 FS750 header, with precious help from Dai Griffith's tutorial, but I had not any success, so perhaps I do it wrong, but did someone succeded on it ? My idea would be to simulate the early Telefunken direction finder system used by the Zeppelins and German bombers during WW1, it needs to put the sound volume in equation.

With many thanks for your attention, cheers
Martin
 
Did you download sd2gau42.5? (yes you did just read that right! 😄 ). Under the 'Adding Gauge Sounds' I placed all the code needed to generate sounds using DirectSound. Your question leads me to believe that you can program gauges and I have no reason to think that my DirectSound code will not work with CFS2. Just don't use the LOOP flag because once you turn that on, you can't turn it off again. I explain why in the file.
