Hi, I have a question on how to install Jafa's sounds into hsfx 4.1 ....I've done this already once but uninstalled the game and now I can't remember where I placed the files...I suppose the samples go into main folder/samples but the presets folder ?? Forgot the location...put it in Files folder, not working...I know I have a bad memory, sorry about that....
thx in advance for the info...

Put both folders in the files folder and see if that works.

I just made a mods folder and put them there. I'm currently trying to merge Jafa's mod with the Distant Sound Mod. It works, but it's not perfect. The only thing I don't like about Jafa's sounds is that I can't hear my guns too well when in the cockpit

@philip.ed: If you are successful, i would love to know how to do that myself

After reading lots and lots (and lots) of posts, i developed this method for modding HSFX:

I put all add-on planes and cockpits in the "MODS" folder, all new sounds on the files folder and for all other mods i put them in "jsgmemods" that way i can activate/deactivate them as needed and also test for compatibility.

Also, in the mods folder i set the upgrades using the method of adding a "0" in front, in example, i merged all the skyrider files (cockpit and plane) together, but that made IL2+HSFX crash, so i separated them in "0_Skyrider" and "1_Skyrider" (first one for the plane, second for the cockpit) and it works just fine now.

Yep, I have a MODS folder myself, but, You know, Jafa's sound mod is divided into engine type folders with one preset and several sample files for each engine ( sakae, merlin, etc...) that's why I don't know where to put the files...( I wish I knew how I did it the first time- probably by accident :o :o :o :o )
thx guys

Alemart, I copied all of JAFA's presets folder over DSM's as I prefered that, and then I picked out all the motor files from the samples folder from JAFA's folder to DSM's. It works but isn't perfect.

Unfortunately, the gun sounds are quite low in the cockpit.

I see, so basically you made jafa sounds with dsm configs right?, is the low gun sound the only issue you have?.
Thanks for the explanation! ^_^

Yep, the only noticeable one. note though that i am only flying spits and hurris They are all I have tested

I will now try the DSM on it's own and then see which I prefer I have to say though that the environmental signs with JAFA's engine sounds are something special

I have yet to test both mods , bot i do have seen some videos of them XD
