Real Sound F-16 Fighting Falcon | Official Release

Recommended Posts

It is finally here, ladies and gentleman!

 

After several months of waiting, implementing and overhauling - the sound mod for Firewill's F-16C/D Fighting Falcon is now in v1.0!  Whoo hoo! 

 

To celebrate, I made a short video showcasing a taste of what it's like in-game. Huge shout out to the Air Combat Command guys (Dogs, Haze, Fett and Bomb) for helping me out with filming and MP testing.  Also a big shout out to Laxemann, who helped me understand a few things about the new audio system and answered all of my questions.

 

Here it is!

 

 

There's been a LOT done to this aircraft since the initial video I released in October, which showcased what I've been working on, but the end result is an improvement I never thought we could make. A changelog is available below, if you're into that sort of thing.

One thing that I'm still trying to get working is the low-pass filters and new stereo processors for use with this and future aircraft sound mods, it's on the wishlist - hopefully I can add it in a patch later down the road if we ever figure it out.

 

Oh yeah, this will also be available for download on the ArmA 3 Workshop!  This is a huge milestone for me and Shazer, so why not give this mod the full treatment? ;)

 

Major features overview:

 

  • Implemented several new soundsets to the aircraft
  • Much more realistic interior
  • Clearer / better sound samples for exterior

 

Finally;

 

If you encounter any other bugs, issues or have feedback that I would find constructive - please share it below or send me a message.

--NOTES---

* This mod requires Firewill's F-16C/D Fighting Falcon mod, available on ArmAholic and the Steam Workshop.

 

--CHANGELOG / MOD STATUS:--

Known issues:

- Sometimes the plane is silent when flying over, think this is an ArmA scripting issue.

 

*Wishlist*

Hello mate!

 

Congratulations on your official release! I've worked on the F-16 for 8 years and I am truly impressed by the work you have done! Really adds the cherry on top to firewills mod!
