• 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.

WAV files don't play

Have created a nice Army Truck, but can't get WAV files to play. I am using Audacity, also Wave Pad and Switch Sound file converter. Media player plays the WAV files just fine.

Placed the files in sound.cfg with filenames less the extensions as noted in SDK. Also have used different compression formats. Have imported FS Cessna sounds and modified them just to test the 'output' of the sound programs I am using. These modified files do not play either, but unmodified files play when added. What am I missing? Is there a 'switch' that I don't know about or a format that gets changed?

This is all that is keeping me from uploading the truck as freeware.

I started messing around with sounds, but quickly gave up. I can't get any .wav files to play either. I recorded a sound clip, then named it exactly the same as the sound file I wanted to replace. My sound file won't play in the simulator. Not sure what I'm missing considering my new sound clip is a direct replacement, same name and everything. Nothing changed in the sound.cfg file. I'm new to this, but it would be nice if someone could explain how these sound files work or what we are doing wrong.
 
Make sure your wav files are in 16bits. 32bits won't play in the sim. If they are just convert the wav file in a wav editor like Adobe Audition.
