• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Prop Pitch Audio

I've been checking it out and have a basic understanding of it yet after a few days of messing with it, it doesn't seem to be working. I can only hear changes on RPM change and not on prop pitch change.

It's my understanding the result should be the sample should pitch down at max prop pitch simulating the biting of the prop and that it's mixing between min and max pitch but I've goten no satisfactory results.

I've experimented with stock planes and muted all audio aside from the prop and still the effect eludes me.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any and all help.
 
I really don’t know much about the built in sound system, but it would be very easy to make an xml panel gauge that monitors RPM (and MP if req’d) and sets a custom local variable you might be able to read. There are full on sound gauge solutions, like Fr.Bill’s, that could manage the prop pitch sound - independent of the default FSX sound config. Not sure if that has a downside on performance. But like I say it’s not an area I’m that familiar with. But I’d certainly like to see this effect solved – it’s a shame it’s not part of the default.

Hey thanks for the reply Danny. I found myself a great programmer to work with who has an understanding of audio so in the future I'll have my own lil system worked out.

In the meantime though I did a decent job of faking it for this current project. Thanks again for the reply.
