aube 9 Posted January 13, 2013 Sidewinder lock tone View File Again inspired by some older flight sims, I decided to make a Sidewinder lock tone that's actually a tone. Using A-10A HUD footage as a template, I was able to create what I feel is a reasonable replica. There is certainly no mistake when I have a solid lock now! It's most likely that this is more appropriate for modern aircraft, though I like it regardless just due to the clear difference between searching and lock tone. Reference video; (tone at 25s) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=621RNJMunnU&t=24s Example video; (tone at 3m45s) Installation: Unzip IRGrowlLock.wav into the Sounds folder in your SF2 mods folder (by default C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\ThirdWire\[executable name]\Sounds) Submitter aube Submitted 01/13/2013 Category In Game Sounds 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fubar512 1,350 Posted January 14, 2013 Sidewinder tones vary by model. A Lima tone is not the same as an X-ray tone. However, TK has limited us to one set of tones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aube 9 Posted January 14, 2013 Had no clue it varied by the Sidewinder model itself, interesting stuff. Would I be correct in assuming that that would be an L or M in that A-10A video? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fubar512 1,350 Posted January 14, 2013 If I'm not mistaken, the Lima lock tone oscillates between a low and high note. That's most likely a Mike tone in the video. I'm sure one of our members with real-life experience in the matter will chime in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aube 9 Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Well I learned something today! Doing a bit more research, but at 1:07 in this vid there's the two-tone lock much as you describe. May play around with replicating that too just for variety's sake. Edited January 14, 2013 by aube Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
