Initially we wanted to produce or licence a custom sound set, but by the time we done with the custom flight model we realised that the stock turboprop soundset sounds pretty much like the C-130 thanks to the custom flight model lower RPM etc. It's hard to tell the difference between the existing third party C-130 soundpack addons. Probably someone will manage to build a kickass sound pack later but for now we have a decent soundset included.

Hi,

I's Matthias from FSVisions.nl

I am the webmaster and news poster/reviewer for this website.
Also i am the developer of the freeware HPG H135 and HPG H145 freeware soundpacks on flightsim.to. Also i helped HPG with the soundpack of their payware AirbusH145 helicopter.

I would love to make a professional sound pack for your new C-130 Captain for MSFS. I have a lot of private recordings of C-130's because i fly the C-130H-30 Hercules in real live with the KLU (Royal Dutch Airforce). I hgave lots of internal, and external files and i already was working for a C130 sound pack so i was very happy with your new release. Great job, the internal and external models look amazing! The VC (Cockpit) is top notch! When i started we also had (semi) analogue gauges in the cockpit. now its all replaced be big touch screens as we use glass cockpits now, sometimes i still miss the old days

If you like my help with a professional sound pack, please contact me at:

Hope to hear from you soon,

Greetings

Matthias

So exciting good times

[quote author=mnpostema link=1713634341/8#8 date=1713719832]Hi everybody,

Just 20 min ago i send a bunch of my own recorded internal and external sound files of the C130 to CS. When they approve them i will add more files to them and again send them back to CS, if those are also approved by CS i will add them to the sound pack so CS can add my sound pack in a free update of their AMAZING C130 Greetings Matthias from FSVisions.nl P.s: Please do not ask for a release date to me or CS but we promise to deliver asap when its ready

Yeah so far he's the only Youtuber that's doing something besides complaining. He actually showed what was available - made it a purchase for me. Looking forward to the improvements there's quite a few things not right currently.

Further to my post above (which I am unable to edit), there is a freeware soundset for the c-130E on flightsim.to where you can replace the files in the sound folder and rebuild the layout.json file.  IMHO, the results are an improvement over the stock sounds while we wait for an official release..
