4.1 How do I install some new sounds I just downloaded?
From FlightSim
Q:
I JUST UNZIPPED SOME TURBOPROP WAVE FILE I WOULD LIKE TO USE. IT DIDN'T COME WITH ANY INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO INSTALL THE FILES. I WOULD LIKE TO USE THESE WITH MY BLUE ANGLE C-130 BUT DON'T KNOW HOW.
A:
I had the same problem. Here is the remedy:
- Create a new folder under FSFSConv and name it Panel.turbop
- Copy in this file all files including sound.cfg from C182\sound subdir
- Unzip all files into FSFSConv\panel.turbop and overwrite all files which will be singled out.
- in your C-130 sound dir edit sound.cfg and write:
alias=\FSFSConv\panel.turbop then save it.

There are many methods to use when installing wave files to
airplanes. One method is very easy. Locate the directory named
"sound" that is under the directory in which your Blue Angle C-130 is
located. Unzip the wave files directly into that directory. Allow
the old "sound.cfg" file to be over written by the new "sound.cfg"
file. That's all there is to it.
A second method is to create a system to consolidate your wave files. You will learn that wave files are quite large. First, make a new directory under FS98>Aircraft. I named mine "AddOnSound." Under this directory make another directory and name it "Turbo.1". Future wave sets will have their own directories named appropriately. Now, place the new wave files into this directory, making sure that you include the new "sound.cfg" file.
Finally, Open the "sound.cfg" in the Blue Angel C-130, sound directory and edit it to:
[fltsim]
alias=AddOnSound\Turbo.1
