Stephen Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 News! - Updated - BSS Flight Factor A320 Ultimate Sound Pack Blue Star Simulations have updated their sound pack for the FlightFactor A320 Ultimate to v0.8.176-2139 (August 2nd 2018). This soundpack is still noted as a "Beta", which is quite strange really? Yes the A320 Ultimate is still an ongoing project, but a rather slow one these days compared to say around Feb/Mar and the aircraft is now pretty well configured. Secondly is that the JARDesign A320's soundpack is far more comprehensive and I should point out I was a little disappointed initially with the FF A320 Ultimate version compared to the comprehensive JAR pack... That engine is a CFM International CFM56-5 series were as this CFM56-5B4 engine is the one that powers the FlightFactor A320, and so well what is the difference, well not much really? so why are the packs so different, or need to be.... you ask me? Anyway the updates keep on rolling out... Version 0.8.176-2139 (August 2nd 2018) ENGINE SOUNDS ROLL SOUNDS GEAR WIND SOUNDS GENERAL VOLUMES GENERAL DISTANCES Version 0.8.162-2125 (July 2nd 2018) ENGINE SOUNDS TONES AND VOLUMES (WHINE AND SAW) ENGINE BASS DURING SPOOL IS LESS STARTED ON OUTSIDE ENGINE SOUNDS (70% COMPLETE) NEW TOUCHDOWN SOUNDS DEPENDING ON SOFT/HARD TOUCH Version 0.8.95-2058 (May 5th 2018) Engines Internal 360 degrees cockpit and cabin - 100% Switching (everything that you can press pull or switch) - 30% Electrical - 90% Hydraulic -91% Ventillation - 50% Air conditioning - 90% Passengers - 5% (temporary fix) Environment - 0% Wind and airflow - 85% Surfaces drag - 85% Gear ground roll - 80% Vibration - 50% APU - 50% Airport - 0% Ground Vehicles - 0% Gear doors - 100% So from the initial release the soundpack has had significant changes and additions, and obviously now sound far much better. So you could say the soundpackage is finally getting there, but this is not yet the total comprehensive package compared to the JAR version, and so overall should Blue Star Simulations have waited and released a far more completed package, or this one? ______________________________________________________________________ Yes! the Blue Sky Star Simulation Sound Packages is now available from the X-Plane.Org Store here : BSS Flight Factor A320 Ultimate Sound Pack Price is US$19.98 (Yes! you do need the FlightFactor A320 Ultimate aircraft and it is Required for the use of this sound pack US$89.95) Go to your X-Plane.OrgStore account to update to the current v0.8.176-2139 (August 2nd 2018) version if you have already purchased the package. ______________________________________________________________________ Blue Sky Star Developer Site : Blue Sky Star Simulations News by Stephen Dutton 7th August 2018 Copyright©2018: X-Plane Reviews (Disclaimer.
