Hello,
my name is Holger. This is my first post in the FSDeveloper forum. English is not my native language and school is out for roundabout 25 years, so please excuse my terrible english.
At first i want to thank Arno for his wonderful tools like MCX, LibraryCreator etc. Many thanks to all the members of this community who help each other.
I hope someone can help me with my problem. I want to attach a hourly chime at a cathedral. So i prepared 12 wavefiles (1 o´clock - 12 o´clock)
I wrote 12 fx-files and attached each twice with different conditions at a dummy-object. I do this with the help of MCX. Here is an example of an effectfile for the 1 o´clock wavefile:
[Library Effect]
Lifetime=5
Version=2.00
Radius=3000
Priority=1
[Sound]
FileName=EDDN_01_oClock.wav
MinAttenuationDistance=4000
Looping=FALSE
[Properties]
Cockpit=1
VirtualCockpit=1
Spot=1
Tower=1
Map=1
[Emitter.0]
Lifetime=0.00, 0.00
Delay=0.50, 0.50
Bounce=0.00
Rate=5.00, 10.00
X Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00
Y Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00
Z Emitter Velocity=0.00, 0.00
Drag=0.00, 0.00
X Particle Velocity=-0.20, 0.20
Y Particle Velocity=0.00, 0.00
Z Particle Velocity=1.00, 2.00
X Rotation=0.00, 0.00
Y Rotation=0.00, 0.00
Z Rotation=0.00, 0.00
X Offset=0.00, 0.00
Y Offset=0.00, 0.00
Z Offset=0.00, 0.00
Pitch=0.00, 0.00
Bank=0.00, 0.00
Heading=0.00, 0.00
I attach these effect twice at the dummy. On the first attach i added the following effect parameters:
First: HOD min = 1 max = 1
second: MOH min = 0 max = 1
On the second effect:
First: HOD min = 13 max = 13
second: MOH min = 0 max = 1
After i have attached 24 effects to the dummy i put him with the help of SbuilderX inside the cathedral in the scenery.
I parked my Bell206 alongeside the cathedral and i listen.
Time for the full hour i heared the correct wave. So far so good, but i have two Problems. The bell ringing is very quietly. I pushed the slider of the enviroment sound inside the FSX to max. But the effect was minor.
So i used an audio editor to push up the loudness of the wavefiles. But it takes no effect.
The second problem is that i can hear the sound only when i positioned near by or directly over the cathedral.
So i think i had to write one or more controller-files to trigger the effects.
Can anyone help me with this problem.
Thanks in advance
Holger
