That got it Snailman....excellent!!! Thanks so much for your help! Now that I know how to do this I'm going to put together a sound mod for SF2 using authentic sounds. When it is done I will post it here for you guys to download, Many thanks, -Jiver Wrench, I looked for gun sound mods here but could not find any. Besides, I enjoy making my own custom sounds.

Ok guys, now I'm a bit confused. Here is what I have done: I used the Strike Fighters 2 Gun Editor to edit the 30MM_GAU8 cannon. I changed the "Gun Fire Sound Name" from "Vulcan" to "GAU8" and then saved my change and closed the editor. I noticed that the editor created the folder "30MM_GAU8" under C:\Users\Russ\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe. Within this folder are two files: 30MM_GAU8.ini and 30MM_GAU8_data.ini. I then created a folder named "Sounds" under C:\Users\Russ\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Europe and placed a copy of my sound file (GAU8.wav) within this folder. I then launched the game and started a single mission in the A-10. When firing the gun I cannot hear any sound at all. What am I doing wrong here? -Jiver

Thanks Trotski, Wrench, and Snailman! I will try this when I get home tonight and let you know the outcome. Thanks again, -Jiver

Hi Trotski, The only thing I changed in the GUNDATA.INI file was the sound name for the GAU-8. The stock sound name was "Vulcan" and I changed it to "GAU8". Is there another ini file specifically for the GAU-8?

Hello all, I am attempting to create a custom sound for The A-10 GAU-8 cannon in Strike Fighters 2 but am not having much luck. I have created a "Sounds" folder off the root of the game folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\ThirdWire\Strike Fighters 2) and placed my custom sound file (GAU8.wav) here. I have also extracted the GUNDATA.INI and SOUNDLIST.INI files, modified them, and placed them in the "Flight" folder. In the GUNDATA.INI file I changed the "GunFireSound" value for [GunData029] from "Vulcan" to "GAU8". In the SOUNDLIST.INI file under the "[soundList]" section, I added "SoundFile034=GAU8". I then added the following entry at the bottom of the file: [GAU8] Priority=NORMAL Looped=TRUE NumBuffers=4 3DSound=TRUE DopplerEffect=FALSE MaxDist=1000.000000 MinDist=50.000000 InsideConeAngle=360 OutsideConeAngle=360 ConeOutsideVolume=0 After doing this I still hear the stock Vulcan cannon sound when firing the gun in the A-10. Obviously I have done something wrong or left something out and would really appreciate any help getting this to work. Thanks in advance, -Jiver
