Aerosoft Popular Post Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51561 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Aerosoft Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2023 Many people have been asking about the sounds... Here is a work-in-progress video. Now I listened to this on my gaming rig audio system (Edifier R1700BT speakers driven by a Topping DX3 DAC) and it sounded good. When I put it through my main system which has a tube amp and subwoofers and a much better DAC it sounded very good. The increase in power had the correct frequency changes as parts of the airframe started to resonate. Play this loud, as loud as you, your speakers, and your family will stand. Airliners are loud. If you want a more realistic sound from the pilot's viewpoint, listen to the next video. That is with the MSFS headphone simulation activated. Now this is a problematic topic as only real pilots can tell us if this is correct (we asked and they said it was correct) and it depends to a huge degree on the brand of noise-canceling headphones. Every single one sounds totally different. We decided to go for the most used brand, Bose. We tried to get as close as possible to getting it to sound like through a Bose A20 Aviation Headset, probably the most used by airline pilots. This is not a cheap headphone. It's around $1300. But it is solid and utterly reliable, and at every major airport, you can get yours fixed. The issue is that 99.9% of our customers have never been on a flight deck wearing these so they have no frame of reference. I am just telling you that this is as close to what a real pilot hears as you probably will get. That is why our main flight deck sounds are as youtube videos make them sound, and leave you the choice. Do not increase your volume setting from the previous video, just listen to what a pilot with a state-of-the-art aviation headset hears. Very little. Companies like Bose spend millions on getting it that way. 13 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with the latest video just above it shows a small part of the flight deck - is the area in view complete/in its final form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iLucasRT 29 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Hi Mathijs, I have a question that is absolutely made out of my own curiosity (and I understand if you don't want to disclose that information). What programming languages are the A330 being made on? Do the same languages are used for all aircraft (A330, CRJ, TO) or do they change depending on the aircraft to be created? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C++ (WASM), JS/HTML and some XML. It's relatively standard stack of programming languages across any aircraft project for MSFS. The exact approach which language is used for which feature is dictated by the feature and its requirements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem telling you about that. The core of the product is solidly C++ That is simply because that is by far the most mature language. When we started this project we started with a code base that was in part 12 years old and split into 5 different projects. The fact we are delayed is that we wanted to get all that code into one build that would make it 'easy' to make more airbusses. That said, things like the EFB are in Javascript because that was the only option when we started it. If we would start that now we would at least consider doing it in C++. In the end, what matters most to us is getting the project available on all platforms. PC, Xbox and Cloud. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krake802 1 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Hello, I was looking at the Virgin Atlantic paint and noticed that it doesn't have the satcom/wifi dome? - I guess when you made the aircraft on P3D, G-VKSS never had the dome irl, however now it does. Any chance of this being added? Or is there a way users can add it manually? By like the cfg or something? Kind regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo 146 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 All this discussion about the ' Howl " sound, reminds me of the heated discussion about whether or not you could see the wingtip from the cockpit on the A320's in the days of FSX/P3D. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All because they are too lazy to make adjustments for an Xbox product to make an experience that is good for both Xbox and PC customers. PMDG did this, and I'm not even sure they made any adjustments. They just made a well-optimized product 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Herman 1591 Posted April 30, 2023 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 30, 2023 Gents, as we all (should) know, the Aerosoft forums are a place to ask questions, get answers, and offer suggestions to Aerosoft. While some of that includes sharing opinions, via up-votes or comments, the opinions expressed recently on the Trent soundset have turned toxic. One of the roles of moderators here is to make hard choices regarding occasionally hiding (not the same as deleting) posts that are argumentative and polarizing. To return this thread to civility, I've hidden substantially all of the posts, positive and negative to be fair, regarding the engine sounds in their present state. In doing so, several posts that are well within community guidelines were hidden as well but only with the intent of "clearing the slate" on this topic. Mathijs' post a few posts up is the definitive statement on this for now. For those that are dissatisfied with the current version, by hiding instead of deleting the posts, your comments are still visible to Aerosoft staff, while making this thread far more pleasant and informative to those of us in the middle who are eager to get our hands on the A330. 9 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the sounds bother you enough, then simply don't buy the product. And let those who aren't bothered enjoy it. Either way, thanks for your enthusiasm, politely shared or not. Here is my final statement regarding this "incident": What is the purpose of such a forum if admins do not tolerate more than the usual amount of people expressing serious wishes and criticism? It was clear to me that the comments would all be hidden at some point, because everyone had a single wish that apparently will not be fulfilled and Aerosoft does not want to establish the image of a company that does not listen to its customers. It would have been nice if the request for a better engine sound had at least been answered in a customer-friendly way. That is seriously all we asked for. For example, if you had explained why the typical howl is not and will not be implemented. Just a small feedback to our wish. But it cannot be the solution to simply say that you should avoid the product if you are not satisfied with the sound. This simply cannot be the anwer of a professional company to a very large customer request. Hiding these posts takes away our voice, because although they are still visible to admins, the public will not be able to see the meaning of this feature request, leaving an impression to new readers that the public maybe does not care about the sound. At this point, I want to get rid of one more thing: The "toxic" behavior (by the way, I would not say that expressing your opinion is equal to a toxic behaviour, you even said that almost all comments did not violate the forum guidelines (again, not a nice way to approach customers expressing wishes, you basically accuse them of toxic behavior without justifying it)) is the result of an even more toxic behavior of a certain moderator and you have to expect that criticism will be expressed if your colleague writes such unnecessary comments. I really hope that this moderator has now learned his lesson, because he manages to make customers look like annoying and unprofessional kids who have no idea of aviation by using an inappropriate choice of words. If you get more than 60 downvotes for two comments, it should be pretty clear that you need to change your attitude towards customers. It should be a moderator's job to make sure everyone is treated fairly. But that is not the case here, customers are not treated with respect. 4 13 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
