Ok, sober once again, after a good night sleep, here is what i've done to get it going.
Batchelor parties and IL2 configuration settings don't mix up too well :lol:



Based upon a UP2.0(n) installation, but I guess it should work for any given install.


1: Distant sounds mod by RedBatFlight:
- I used the Presets and Samples folders only!
- They went into a folder inside my MODS folder.
(you pick the name of the folder ofcourse - I called it "0_A_DSM_Eng"

To ensure it gets loaded over all other soundmods.


2: Tiger_33's soundmod UV2 Final:
- made a backup of my Files folder

then:
- Presets and Samples folder from T_33 into my IL2 Files folder
- Preload file from T_33 into Files folder

note: don't know if I also copied T_33's buttons file, but I assume not.


3: Made a backup of Conf.ini just to be safe.


4: Opened up Conf.ini
Adjusted the values under [sound] to match RBF's settings from his read me file.

Code:

SoundUse=1
SoundEngine=1
Speakers=0
Placement=0
SoundFlags.reversestereo=0
RadioFlags.Enabled=1
RadioEngine=2
MusicVolume=8
ObjectVolume=14
MusState.takeoff=0
MusState.inflight=0
MusState.crash=0
MusFlags.play=0
MasterVolume=14
Attenuation=7
SoundMode=0
SamplingRate=2
NumChannels=2
SoundExt.occlusions=0
SoundFlags.hardware=1
SoundFlags.streams=1
SoundFlags.duplex=1
SoundExt.acoustics=0
SoundExt.volumefx=0
SoundFlags.voicemgr=0
SoundFlags.static=1
VoiceVolume=8
Channels=2
SoundExt.extrender=0
SoundFlags.bugscorrect=0
SoundSetupId=2
ActivationLevel=0.02
Preemphasis=0.85
RadioLatency=0.5
AGC=1
PTTMode=1
SoundFlags.UseRadioChatter=0
SoundFlags.AutoActivation=0
RadioFlags.PTTMode=0
RadioFlags.PlayClicks=0
ActLevel=0
MicLevel=0
SoundFlags.forceEAX1=0

Afterwards I adjusted the soundvolumes for music, cockpit etc manually, but it's all about his sound-engine settings

another note: this install gives only a few console errors with sounds, but I have not noticed any abscense of sounds or any problems at all ingame.
If the above soundsetup gives problems, then try my own current (adjusted) settings:

Code:

SoundUse=1
SoundEngine=1
Speakers=0
Placement=0
SoundFlags.reversestereo=0
RadioFlags.Enabled=1
RadioEngine=2
MusicVolume=2
ObjectVolume=11
MusState.takeoff=0
MusState.inflight=0
MusState.crash=0
MusFlags.play=0
MasterVolume=7
Attenuation=7
SoundMode=0
SamplingRate=1
NumChannels=3
SoundExt.occlusions=0
SoundFlags.hardware=0
SoundFlags.streams=1
SoundFlags.duplex=1
SoundExt.acoustics=0
SoundExt.volumefx=0
SoundFlags.voicemgr=0
SoundFlags.static=1
VoiceVolume=6
Channels=2
SoundExt.extrender=0
SoundFlags.bugscorrect=0
SoundSetupId=8
ActivationLevel=0.02
Preemphasis=0.85
RadioLatency=0.5
AGC=1
PTTMode=1
SoundFlags.UseRadioChatter=0
SoundFlags.AutoActivation=0
RadioFlags.PTTMode=0
RadioFlags.PlayClicks=0
ActLevel=0
MicLevel=0
SoundFlags.forceEAX1=0

5: Done..
I cannot tell if this is a 100% correct working and fully merged RBF&T_33 soundset, but atleast it works for me and it's the best sound i've ever had so far.
If anyone has any corrections and/or additions to the above, please fill me in.

And no, I'm not the one who's going to get married. :lol:
