Missing sounds - tips and tricks

I recently downloaded version 4.3,and noticed that the attendant messages and altitude callouts don't appear to be working. There was a fix for the attendant messages on ver 4.2 on the old AVSIM forum which I cannot remember. Any suggestions appreciated.

I got that too, all you have to do is edit the sound.ini as suggested elsewhere on the forum and it all works again.  Sorry I can't remember the details, I'm at work right now.

Here's the previous fix:

Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Captain_Sim\757.  Open and edit the sound configuration file file so that it reads "SoundOffWhenSimIsSlew=0".  That should take care of it.

Also, I have noticed that seatbelt/smoking signs are still not fixed completely.  Not that big of a deal, though.

Is fsx still running at this point.If so,exit fsx before modifying file.Also if you are running vista operating system,you may not have permissions to write files Shocked

did u go thru this path?
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Captain_Sim\757
there is sound configuration file that will open with notepad.
u can also try disabling (turning off) the 'UAC control' found under 'user accounts' in 'control panel' when u click on 'start'. then try changing the config file. u may need to restart the comp after turning the 'user acount control-uac' off.

Roger,

Are you running vista 64 bit or 32 bit? I had the same problem with the sound and it worked for me. The sound file you should open is at the bottom, next to it there is written cinfiguration setting. The only reason why I am asking you if you have 64 or 32 bit because when I had the 32 the path was C:\Program files as with 64 is C:\Program files(x86) and 64 bit has them both program files with x86 next to it and without and on my pc everything goes there for fsx, I am not sure if this counts for all the 64bit but that is how it is on mine.

Patrick

Thanks for the response.

I have FSX in a separate folder for performance:C:\ FS
This is where the sound ini file is located: C:\FS\Captain Sim.
Yes, the file is an .ini

Hi Jack,
Try to localize the file called MSVCR71.DLL in C:/.
You should find it.
Make a copy and past it into the main FSX folder.
That should fix your problem.
Best regards,
