    Suggestion, hey IPACS I was just landing a 321 in Frankfurt with some pretty heavy winds and I was thinking as I touched down on the runway. How great would it be to have the touchdown sounds of the wheels slamming on to the runway like that low pitched light boom sounds and also the rattling sound of the flight deck shaking. It would be an absolutely amazing add on that wouldn’t require much work on.

    Would love to hear people’s thoughts on it.

    6yrs ago I created a soundpack for the A320 in FS2. Just got back into flightsim, purchased FS4. Not sure if its even possible to modify the sounds, currently investigating

    The sound variations are defined in the tmd, the sound samples can be converted with the aircraft converter, so you have everything you need to modify sounds...

    Thanks for the reply. I had a look at ther A321.tmd, couldn't find any entries for ground roll, touchdown, engine start/shutdown. My PC with all my notes for the A320 is now long gone, its been a while since I did any modifications. Do you have a link to the aircaft convertor and a guide?

    I found a folder for the dr400, but nothing related to the A321. Is there a way to get the wav files for the A321, so I can modify the volumes and put it back in the sim?


    Thanks

    The sounds are primarily defined in the subdirectory "base" in the systems tmd file, which is identical between the A320 and A321. All sound triggers, all sound manipulations are in that file and you can simply add new sounds into the sound section or adjust existing ones.

    Adjusting volumes and pitch (playback speed) of the sound files does not need any modifications to the actual files. Just adjust the mappings that go into the soundloop input for volume or pitch. You only need the converter to convert new raw wav files in 22.5 kHz to the format used in Aerofly FS.

    Can we expect anything from you guys for these sound effects ? Also just highlighting the PTU sounds need fixing as they don’t have the really high pitch sound when starting and they don’t sound good when you shut down the aircraft. Just adding 🙏🏻

    They could add vibrations to the phone when the wheels of the plane touch the runway on landing, it would be fantastic
